Democracy in Central Eastern Europe and European Union
Authors: Muskaj Blerina
Published: May 2022

Some of the countries in the region have contributed through assistance programs to develop and align their democracies with what the EU itself lobbies. EU aid to CEE is seen as a phenomenon of EU-perceived responsibility in the interaction of new democracies in Central and Eastern Europe. This paper will create a genuine study of the perceived responsibility for the development of democracies in these countries. It paints a clear picture of the development of democracy and the need for CEE countries to be under EU assistance. The assistance coming from this institution has given and continues to contribute to developing a democracy with strong executive foundations for society and beneficial to the region. In this way, the EU manages to achieve its objectives of achieving a federal union. When we say federal union we mean a Europe with the same democratic values and executive standards.In this paper the EU's responsibility for the new democracies of Central and Eastern Europe is seen in activities with EU programs to enhance institutions above democratic values. Having access to the issues facing the democracies of Central and Eastern Europe, the Council Acquis provides an overview in the field of democracy. The paper gives us the opportunity to look more closely at democratic forces in countries where the latter is still developing, aiming not only at the analysis of democracy, but also at the analysis of the European common market. We will look at these two EU phenomena in the context of the EU's perceived responsibility for the interaction of new democracies in CEE. The EU has undertaken this responsibility in the context of strengthening, developing and maturing new democracies on the European Continent. Giving its contribution through various programs designed in the form of grants, which are given to countries that are in the process of maturation, in the form of programs that pave the way for development. The question that arises at this stage is: Does democracy help in a market economy?
Recent Opportunities for Increasing Georgian Wine Export - Incentives or Obstacles to Improving Wine Quality
Authors: Kasradze Tea , Nutsubidze Maka , Kapanadze Pikria
Published: May 2022

Along with the internationally recognized image of Georgian wine and the increase of wine exports, special attention is paid to maintaining and improving the quality of Georgian wine. Taking into account the requirements of the local and international wine markets and, consequently, promoting the development of a competitive market remains a challenge for Georgian law. The creation of favorable conditions for the export of wine at the local and international level implies, first of all, the existence of legal regulations. The aim of the Law of Georgia on Vine and Wine and its accompanying subordinate normative acts is to develop a competitive wine market in Georgia and to protect the interests of consumers, to maintain and grow the international reputation of the Georgian viticulture and winemaking sector. The law was substantially amended in 2017 and the aim of the reform was to adapt to the challenges in the wine sector and bring it closer to international standards. At the same time, the export of Georgian wine to different countries is regulated by a different legal framework. Therefore, it is in our interest to analyze these different legal regulations, which have a direct impact on the opportunities for wine exports from Georgia - the incentive or obstacle to improving the quality of Georgian wine. EU regulations apply to both wines produced in the EU and imported to the EU market, as well as to Georgia, as a third country that has signed the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement (DCFTA) with the EU. Russia, Ukraine and the USA are important export markets for Georgia. Georgia has different international legal relations with each of them and, accordingly, the legal requirements for wine exports to these countries are different. The paper examines the current state of the modern Georgian wine market in the context of domestic and international norms regulating wine exports. It is analyzed whether local legislation and international agreements regulating wine exports contribute to the growth of Georgian wine exports and the improvement of wine quality.
Informal Learning of Indigenous Music and Dance Through Observation and Imitation: The Case of Bapedi Children’s Musical Arts
Authors: Lebaka Morakeng Edward Kenneth
Published: May 2022

In Greater Sekhukhune District Municipality, Limpopo Province in South Africa, learning indigenous music and dance through observation and imitation seems to be a dominant and prominent practice of situational learning. Bapedi people tend to have their own distinctive music genres and purposes for their social events. Bapedi children’s musical arts reveal much about Bapedi people and their way of life. This paper sets out to discuss the transmission process of indigenous music and dance through observation and imitation; and musico-artistic skills acquired by children with at least a partial degree of independence during social and cultural events. In the Bapedi culture, music is a natural phenomenon. Dance too, is not excluded. It is a significant aspect of Bapedi people’s music tradition and a ubiquitous medium of communication or expression. Informal interviews, direct observations and video recordings were employed to collect data. The following research questions therefore guided this study: 1) How is social interaction in the Bapedi society viewed as a critical component of situational learning involving the transmission of children’s musical arts? and 2) Do children in the Bapedi society have the ability to recognize and interpret what musical activity/event is taking place and to participate in ways sensitive to the context? The investigation has revealed that in the Bapedi culture, informal learning of indigenous music and dance; and social processes are indissolubly linked and take place within contexts in which members of the society relate to each other and their environment. The results of this study have further shown that the spectrum of learning experiences can range from accidental, unintentional, or reluctant forms of learning to active, intentional, involved, and highly valued forms of learning. It was concluded that in early childhood, it is play that underlies almost all informal learning and holism is a dominant principle in music and dance enculturation process of Bapedi children’s musical arts.

Published: May 2022

We used reference-free grazing incidence X-ray fluorescence to measure the density of four thiol Raman-active molecules assembled on gold surfaces. This value is needed to reliably quantify the number of molecules contributing to the SERS signal in a plasmonic substrate in the effort to standardize the enhancement factor calculation and such molecules constitute suitable probes for benchmarking SERS sensors.
Oxalate Oxidase for In Situ H2O2-generation in Unspecific Peroxygenase-Catalysed Drug Oxyfunctionalisations
Authors: Romero Elvira , Johansson Magnus , Cartwright Jared , Grogan Gideon , Hayes Martin
Published: May 2022

H2O2-driven enzymes are of great interest for industrial biotransformations. Herein, we show for the first time that oxalate oxidase (OXO) is an efficient in situsource of H2O2 for one of these biocatalysts, which is known as unspecific peroxygenase (UPO). OXO is reasonably robust, produces only CO2 as a by-product and usesoxalate as a cheap sacrificial electron donor. UPO is a top-rated catalyst for selective C-H oxyfunctionalisations, as we confirm herein by testing a diverse drug panel using miniaturised high-throughput assays and mass spectrometry. 33 out of 64 drugs were converted in 5 μL-scale reactions by the UPO with OXO (conversion >70% for 11drugs). Furthermore, 84% isolated yield was achieved for the drug tolmetin on a larger scale (50 mg, TONUPO 25,664), which was excelled by implementing enzyme immobilization. This one-pot approach ensures adequate H2O2 levels, enabling rapid access to industrially relevant molecules which are difficult to obtain by other routes.
Parenting Time and Child Coping: The Context of Parental Alienation
Authors: Smith Amy , Biringen Zeynep , Harman Jennifer J.
Published: May 2022

This study examined whether discrepancies in reported court ordered parenting time and actual parenting time among families that had dissolved (i.e., divorced) was associated with the degree to which children are reported to demonstrate negative coping behaviors. It was hypothesized that (a) parents who were targets of alienating behaviors by the other parent would report having less parenting time than what the courts ordered and (b) children would engage in negative behavioral coping strategies when there were larger discrepancies between parenting time in the divorce decree versus reported parenting time. Data were gathered from surveys and audio-recorded interviews from 70 parents who reported being the targets of parental alienating behaviors. A content analysis was conducted on the interview transcripts to code for the child’s behavioral outcomes, as reported by the targeted parent. Results from this study provide information on the extent to which parenting time awarded by family courts can be in conflict with what occurs, and in reality, whether such discrepancies are associated with parent reported child functioning.

Authors: Huang Yaqing , Lin Jiaye , Chen Peng
Published: May 2022

There are many factors, that affect the development of indoor fire, such as the size of the fire source, the opening or space of the room, and the nature of the combustible materials. Among them, the space of the room, has a significant impact on the development of a ventilation-limited fire. In this paper, the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) software is used to analyze, the risk of fire initiation in the restricted ventilated compartment, when the size of vertical ventilation space is different. Through, a combination of experimental design, numerical simulation, and theoretical analysis, the changes in the level of carbon monoxide, visibility, temperature, Heat Release Rate (HRR) and, the smoke exhaust efficiency of natural smoke at different opening sizes are observed. It is observed that, when the ratio of inlet and outlet area reaches 2:1, the natural smoke exhaust effect is the best, however, the increasing in the opening size has little significance on the smoke exhaust effect. The research on the influence of smoke outlet size, will helps in the development of the law regarding fire prevention, smoke exhaust design, and fire rescue work of a building.

Authors: Shcherbinin V. V. , Golub O. V. , Chekryga G. P. , Motovilov O. K.
Published: May 2022

Research on the development of the recipe and technology of potable kissels containing native biologically active substances through the use of rosehip fruits is presented. Five variants of new products from fresh and dried rosehips with the addition of sugar, potato starch, xanthan gum and citric acid were analyzed. It was found that the potable kissels containing at least 21.5 % fresh or 5.37 % dried rosehip fruits were the most appealing. The use of mechanoacoustic equipment in the manufacture of kissels leads to physical and chemical changes in the raw materials (partial destruction of the cell walls, the formation of new coloring substances, etc.), which positively affects the formation of organoleptic characteristics of new products, as well as reduces the technological operations of production and inhibits microorganisms. The consumption of 200 cm3 of new products provides the human body with at least 62% of the daily requirement for ascorbic acid and at least 66 % for β-carotene, as well as dietary fiber of at least 0.6 g and 11 mg of phenolic substances. The shelf life of rosehip potable kissels is 12 months in glass jars at 25 ° C and relative humidity of 75 % or higher and in a place protected from direct sunlight. On the basis of this research, normative and technical documentation for potable rosehip kissels was developed.

Authors: Futai Marcos M. , Almeida Márcio S.S. , Lacerda Willy A.
Published: May 2022

This paper summarizes the yield and strength behaviour of clays studied in the State of Rio de Janeiro in the last forty years, with emphasis on the role of the clay structure on strength and yield. The undrained strength normalised by the overconsolidation stress is analyzed against the plasticity index IP. Values of the clay friction angle φ’ are also analyzed against the plasticity index IP. Both data are compared with the available literature data, but the Rio de Janeiro clays have higher IP and also show more data scatter. As far as yield is concerned, it is shown that the use of the SHANSEP method results in the destruction of the clay structure with the loss of its anisotropic characteristics. An evaluation of the level of structure destruction is presented.

Authors: Bania Elisabeth Valmyr , Eckhoff Christian , Ekornes Stine
Published: May 2022

The present paper explores Sami women’s lower NEET (Not engaged in Education, Employment or Training) experience in an ethnoreligious multicontext perspective. Data are derived from a cross-sectional cohort and registry follow-up study in Northern Norway, 2003–2012, and data from Statistics Norway are included for an up-to date data analysis (2021). This is a cross-sectional cohort and registry data study in Northern Norway, 2003-2012. The participants were adolescents and young people. Out of 5 877 10th graders 83% answered a questionnaire in a cross-sectional study, the Norwegian Arctic Adolescent Health Study (NAAHS), whereas consent-based follow-up consisted of 68% (3987 young people). There is an ethnic self-report of 9.2% with Sami ethnicity in the respondent/consent group, hence 10% in NAAHS. The outcome variables were educational aspirations, non-completion of upper secondary school, tertiary education, and NEET experience among female Sami young adults as explained by ethnoreligious affiliation. The explanatory variables are sociodemographic factors (gender, ethnicity, residency). Stratification of the participants are made by dividing girls and boys, Sami, and non-Sami, Laestadian and non-Laestadian and residency by counties in Arctic Norway (previously Finnmark, Troms and Nordland). The results show that Sami women stood positively out compared to majority women and all men through the footprint to work participation. Some of the conclusions from the study is that sociocultural and macroeconomic factors must be considered to create means for Sami women’s work participation.

Published: May 2022

School climate is an underestimated factor for sustainable development and resilience in the educational context. There is a need to develop and implement specific prevention and intervention programs that help maintain a positive school climate in cultural diversity to ensure psychological well-being, successful adjustment, academic achievement, integration of students from diverse cultural backgrounds, and prevention of extremism among youth. The current study tested the Classroom Cultural Diversity Climate Scale (CCDCS) in the context of cultural diversity in Russian schools. Participants included students with and without an immigrant background. Russian students had difficulty answering questions about racism and discrimination because these topics are not covered in the secondary school curriculum. The research results showed that the questionnaire questions effectively provided an impetus to test further the validity and reliability of the CCDCS for Russian participants. The adapted questionnaire will make it possible to examine the descriptive norms of school policies related to diversity. In addition, the questionnaire can be used to identify factors that influence the learning efficiency and adjustment of students from diverse cultural backgrounds, including immigrant students.
“Minority Students’ Experiences are Part of Our Life of Teaching”: Hierarchical Multiple Regressions of Vietnamese Teacher Autonomous Motivation and Teacher Engagement
Authors: Vu Ngoc Tung , Nguyen Duc An
Published: May 2022

This article seeks to understand teacher autonomous motivation and teacher engagement of Vietnamese in-service teachers of English working with Vietnamese ethnic minority students, by presenting their voices and experiences as a hierarchical multiple regression analysis. Relying on the Self-Determination theory (Deci & Ryan, 1985), this quantitative study draws insights into Vietnamese K-12 English teachers of ethnic minority groups, when it comes to intrinsic, external, introjected, and identified motivation in support of their continuation of daily teaching activities and their further teaching professions. These aspects are likely to be translated into their sense of engagement in their professional contexts to different extents. Applying purposeful sampling for quantitative data collection, we primarily focus on drawing from the teachers’ self-rated competence to better explore a wide range of Vietnamese education insights regarding Vietnamese minority groups. Our findings, based on the multiple rounds of hierarchical multiple regression, suggest that teacher autonomous motivation and teacher engagement appear to be closely associated. Some relevant associations are found to occur under the influence of the teachers’ demographic backgrounds, including personal, familial, and educational experiences. Pedagogical implications are also presented at the end of our study, making way for future research to continue this important scholarship.

Authors: F A Hayatu  , M M Dukku
Published: May 2022

Solar energy is the most promising of the renewable energy sources in view of its apparent limitless potential. A Dual energy Source Solar Dryer was developed under Bauchi weather at latitude 9°14′ N and longitude 12°26′ E using locally available materials and the performance was evaluated. The essence of the dryer was to achieve the effective method of tomato preservation and eliminate the drudgery and product deterioration associated with traditional methods of open sun drying of tomatoes. This is in view of alleviating the weather limitation experienced by farmers in crop drying especially for tomatoes. The solar dryer consists of tray, reflective walls and glass roof, a preheating air absorber plate, inner panels for removal of moisture and chimney through which air stream passes across the dryer. Evaluation of the dryer showed a raised temperature of about 47 ℃ attainable in the drying chamber. The dryer temperature and drying rate was found to be higher than the natural open sun drying method. The dryer was able to reduce moisture content of tomato from initial moisture content of 94% wet basis to 4% in three days with effective drying time of 24 h, efficiency of 64%, air mass flow rate of 0.025 kg s-1 and drying rate of 0.03906 kg h-1. The results showed a considerable advantage of solar dryer over the traditional open sun drying method in terms of drying rate and less risk for spoilage.

Published: May 2022

Computer vision systems largely depend on the quality of output of the image processing modules to perform their operations for a desired accurate result. The process of image acquisition and transmission usually results in image degradation. This endangers the efficiency of computer vision systems. This paper presents the causes of image degradation and the restoration techniques to enhance the output of computer vision systems. At different filter kernel sizes, median filters have better performance in image restoration as shown in the SNR, PSNR, and MSE results obtained. Averaging filters result in a blurring effect on the image. Wiener filters perform better for speckle and Gaussian noise. For impulse (salt and pepper) noise, median filters have the best performance.

Authors: Steffi Kishna  , Diane E Heck  , Hong Duck Kim
Published: May 2022

The present early screening and analytic tests for diabetes mellitus depend on the changes in the amount of glucose in the blood and autoantibody detection. However, innovative techniques have changed medical research relevance (Diabetes included). For instance, the introduction of genotyping arrays supported large-scale genome-wide relations studies and methods for evaluating international transcripts level, leading to integrated genetics. Additionally, other omics techniques like proteomics and metabolomics are currently being included in biological researchers' daily practices. This short review provides a comprehensive analysis of such omics technologies and concentrates on methods for their incorporation across different omics layers. Unlike a single omics type, multi-omics offers the opportunity to acknowledge the flow of information that triggers the disease. The inclusion of omics as a molecular term means an all-inclusive or international evaluation of various molecules. Most of the multi-omics studies focus on type 2 diabetes. Moreover, medical advancements are also expected to increase the level of anticipation concerning type 2 diabetes. Most data are also being incorporated with treatment responses, thereby offering the needed advancements for precision medicine in type 2 diabetes, which is currently the most prevalent chronic illness experienced in both the developed and developing nations in equal measure.

Ideologia-pandemia. La crisi del contemporaneo tra virus e capitalismo
Authors: Colacino Marco
Published: May 2022

A due anni dall’inizio della pandemia è legittimo interrogarsi sui motivi storici che hanno prodotto questo choc collettivo. Attraverso una analisi comparata di biologia e teoria critica, si intende evidenziare come virus e modo di produzione abbiano diversi punti in comune. Se la pandemia è un evento biologico ma non filosofico (cfr. Badiou) virus e modo di produzione (cfr. Althusser) mostrano evidenti analogie che impongono una riflessione sulla sostenibilità del capitalismo.

Authors: Balebu Geraldi Putra P , Oktora Siskarossa Ika
Published: May 2022

Leprosy is one of the infectious diseases and has become a serious health problem in Indonesia. Based on the publication of the Health Ministry of Republik Indonesia, there are still many areas in Indonesia that have not reached the leprosy elimination status, one of which is Sulawesi Island. The condition of leprosy prevalence in Sulawesi Island is still fluctuating and tends to be high. In addition, leprosy can also be spread across regions. This study aims to analyze whether a spatial effect is present on leprosy prevalence and determine the variables that possibly affect leprosy prevalence. Data used are from Health Profile and Province in Figure publications with an analysis unit consisting of 81 districts/cities. The results show that there is a spatial effect on leprosy prevalence in Sulawesi Island. Queen contiguity-based spatial weights are also considered while performing the spatial analysis. Based on the results of Spatial Error Models can be concluded that population density, the number of multibacillary (MB) leprosy cases, and spatial effect significantly affect the leprosy prevalence. In contrast, a clean and healthy lifestyle, proper water access, and proper sanitation access do not significantly affect the leprosy prevalence.

Until now, Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has become a concern for Indonesia because of its significant development and impact on various sectors of life and hampering the target of achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The achievements targeted in the SDGs, such as reducing poverty, hunger, and many more are very difficult to realize in the current pandemic conditions. The uncertain conditions of the pandemic made the government need some new ideas for consideration in creating policies to encourage sustainable development in this situation. This article covers modeling the effect of achieving the second dose of vaccination and the total cases of COVID-19 cases, which are often considered the reason for general negligence in complying with health protocols, especially wearing masks. This research was conducted using spline nonparametric regression because of its flexibility to handle uncertain data patterns. The results of this study are truncated spline nonparametric regression with 3 knots that produce a R-sq equal to 69.952%. Based on the results, the second dose vaccination coverage variables and the total COVID-19 cases together affect mask compliance. This result is expected to be a benchmark for the government to handle COVID-19 and efforts to achieve the SDGs.
