Morals of Despair
In this paper, drawing from the ideas of the 19th-century philosopher Soren Kierkegaard, a self-proclaimed “physician of the soul”, we are going to explore whether conformity and the pursuit of social status and acceptance be a strategy used to hide this despair, not just from others, but from ourselves and what is the most functional and potent antidote to the despair that torments so many in the modern world.

Published: July 2022

Diverse kinds of pollen and nectar forage by honey bees generate numerous types of honey which can be explored for the establishment of beekeeping venture in an area . The taluka of chikhli is rich floristically but neither pollen analytical study. Considering this, the present work has been undertaken to develop melissopalynological database from the chikhli taluka and to evaluate the potential of the study area for apiculture. Pollen analysis of 6 natural honey samples collected from the six different village of chikhli taluka reveals that 2 are uniflorae, 4 multiflorae . plant species used for study are : Acacia nilotica , Sesamum indikum , Trachyspermum ammi , Anethum sowa, Brassica nigra, and mix type of honey sample. There were many bee plant , which provides pollen and nectar throughout the year. it was found that on a average Ajwain honey contained the highest moisture (19.9)followed by Mustard (18.7%) and mix honey (18.4%). The lowest moisture (17.4%) was found in Babool honey. Highest carbohydrates obtained in Babool (78.99) and Sowa honey (78.85%) respectively . the lowest carbohydrates was found in mustard (74.27) honey. Highest natural sugar was found in mustard (74.89%)honey followed by Dill (72.70%). The lowest natural sugar found in babool (70.63%)honey. The findings recommend that the competent authority, on the basis of this pollen analytical data, may initiate bee-keeping ventures in this economically backward area and the beekeepers may have the opportunity to share the profitable medicinal honey market. This would benefit the rural health care improving the socio-economy of the local inhabitants of this region.

Published: July 2022

Daylighting is an optimal illumination of building using natural sunlight . The utilization of daylight can significantly affect building aesthetic , energy efficiency, as well as occupant’s comfort,productivity and health.Another purpose of day lighting is to save energy by reducing artificial lighting. In this study existing daylight pattern in school building is studied. Few retrofitting strategies like introduction of skylight, windows alteration and redesigning of the interior space are suggested to get the benefit of optimal daylight. Evaluation of daylighting after retrofitting is done by using Ecotect simulation .After retrofitting considerable increase in daylight performance is observed. Retrofitting suggested here also provides better ventilation with minimized energy consumption. However it should be noted that though retrofitting improves internal illuminance, surrounding structures limits the solar penetration .
A Review on Failure Analysis of Nozzle Guide Vanes of Aero Gas Turbine
Authors: Aniket Gurubaxani  , Sahil Meshram  , Dhiraj More
Published: July 2022

Nozzle guide vanes (NGVs) at the inlet of the turbine is the first component that comes in contact with the hot gases. Acceleration of hot gases coming from the combustion chamber are done by the convergent shape of vanes. Aim is to get the higher efficiency from turbine by less exhaust gas emission and low fuel consumption. But for higher efficiency engine has to operate at peak temperature. At high temperature nozzle guide vanes can get fails due to thermal stresses induced in it. Leakage or blocking of cooling passages are also the major cause of failure of nozzle guide vanes. The reasons for the thermal failure of NGVs varies the change in temperature. Failure of analysis of NGVs of aero gas turbine engine are discussed.

Published: July 2022

The current research is being conducted in the junnar tehasil in order to better understand paddy field variety. The research was based on extensive and in-depth field surveys conducted over the course of several months between 2020 and 2022. During the field study collect a variety of paddy weeds in a systematic manner, including collection identification and the preparation of three voucher specimens for the creation of a herbarium. Weeds were collected on two-monthly field trips in each site. During that time, the authors identified 84 weed species from 36 Angiospermic and one pteridophytic family. Monocot groups like Cyperaceae and Poaceae, with 08 and 14 weed species, respectively, dominated the 21 Angiospermic families. There were one weed species from the pteridophytic family Marsileaceae. The goal of this study is to collect data on rice-field weeds and establish that the majority of them are of medical value. 84 plants with ethnomedicinal effects have also been discovered. Plants from the Amaranthaceae, Asteraceae, and Poaceae families were the most commonly utilised for dysentery, wounds, and skin illnesses. Before some of them may be employed as pharmaceuticals to benefit humans, more phytochemical research is required. Exploration, identification, and use of new ethnomedicinal plants are urgently needed to assist economic growth.

The Cunning Linguist of Agbabi’s “The Kiss”
Authors: Pavlinich Elan J.
Published: July 2022

In the Old French fabliaux tradition, sex acts and generic conventions intersect, revealing strategies of power. For example, Chaucer’s The Miller’s Tale, a Middle English text that is informed by fabliaux conventions, follows the sexual desires and exchanges of power between men, in the context of a frame narrative that privileges competition between the men of The Canterbury Tales, which is located within English literary canons dominated by men. In “The Kiss,” Patience Agbabi’s modern retelling of The Miller’s Tale, the central woman of the narrative assumes authorial control, and she privileges sex acts that empower women’s voices while both rendering the sexual figurations of Chaucer’s text more literal, and adhering more closely to Old French fabliaux conventions. Agbabi encodes cunnilingus through different languages, including French, Latin, Braille, and English slang, representing the diverse cultural influences that inform English literary traditions, including texts such as The Canterbury Tales. Situating her medievalism, Telling Tales, within a literary genealogy emerging from Chaucer, Caxton, and Shakespeare, Agbabi cites the subversive nature of her source texts to disrupt modern social hierarchies, such as male-dominated literary traditions. The intersections of sexual satisfaction and literary production in “The Kiss,” privilege women’s standpoints.
Describing Giorgione’s Tempest: Iconography, Genre, Interpretation
Authors: Schmitter Monika
Published: July 2022

THE DESCRIPTION OF GIORGIONE’S Tempest (ca. 1507) written by the Venetian nobleman and art enthusiast Marcantonio Michiel in 1530 has played a fundamental role in nearly all attempts to interpret the picture’s puzzling iconography, but its implications have not been fully understood. This article analyzes Michiel’s words in light of his life history and his larger project of recording information about works of art, his handwritten notes later published under the title Notizia d’opere di disegno (1800). Much to scholars’ consternation Michiel did not unequivocally identify the subject of Giorgione’s painting, but he did interpret its poetic mood. Specifically, his syntax and words reveal that he perceived a sense of disquiet, even potential tumult, in the picture. His account further suggests that he responded to the scene not as if it were a narrative, but rather in the vein of an allegory, or more precisely, an impresa. This observation, together with the picture’s composition, proportion, scale, and inventive use of imagery, highlights the Tempest’s resemblance to a relatively new type of painting, the portrait back or cover. While it is not possible to verify that Giorgione painted the Tempest as a canvas cover (called a timpano), I argue that “portrait adjacent imagery” impacted Giorgione’s invention. I also demonstrate that the painting’s earliest known owner, Gabriele Vendramin, was an avid collector and patron of painting covers in various media. Seeing the Tempest in relation to the contemporary culture of imprese and painting backs and covers frees us from looking for a definitive solution to the “iconographic problem.” Instead, it allows us to comprehend the imaginative, idiosyncratic, and open-ended imagery as a means to contemplate personal and philosophical ideals concerning the regulation and cultivation of the self.

Mothers, Space, and Power in Athelston
Authors: Bolton Kristy
Published: July 2022

The late fourteenth-century Middle English romance Athelston explores the extent and propriety of monarchic power. Integral to this exploration are the characters of two women in the text whose enactments of motherhood reveal the very human failings of the divinely elected king and contribute to the romance’s advocation of law and the church to temper monarchic power. This article focuses on the use of space in relation to power, authority, gender, and motherhood, arguing that the writer of Athelston uses the disruption of gendered spaces, particularly in relation to pregnant women, to comment on systems of power and authority in the late fourteenth-century. It argues that the author of Athelston uses public enactments of motherhood to challenge the concept of infallible royal power.

Monastic Reform and Romanesque Figurative Capitals at Saint-Bénigne in Dijon
Authors: Marino Malone Carolyn
Published: July 2022

THE CRYPT CAPITALS OF Saint-Bénigne in Dijon (1001–1018) are often considered among the most inventive of early Romanesque figurative capitals. This article demonstrates that the Benedictine reform undertaken at the monastery by Abbot William of Volpiano in the last decade of the tenth century provides a context not only for a new interpretation of the iconography of two capitals facing St. Bénigne’s tomb, but also for the genesis of the contorted monstrous imagery characteristic of the Romanesque style. The iconography of the capitals resembles John of Fécamp’s description of hell in the Confessio theologica. The stylistic complexity of the carved forms sustains the emotional engagement that John deemed necessary for repentance and recalls Odo of Cluny’s prescription in the Occupatio of using devices to maintain engagement. Similarities with Abbot William’s reform in Dijon and the related texts of these Benedictine reformers suggest that the capitals were designed to kindle fear as the first step of repentance in a monastic program of spiritual perfection.
The Dominican High Altar in Bern and the Failure of Iconography
Authors: Golan Tamara
Published: July 2022

THE IDIOSYNCRATIC ICONOGRAPHY of the high altar for the Dominican church in Bern has long resisted scholarly interpretation. Indeed, the seeming incoherence of the iconographic program has led recent scholars to call into question the authorship and location of the six surviving panels, rejecting outright that panels belonged together at all. My article, however, demonstrates that the unusual iconography represents an attempt by the Dominicans to commission an innovative program designed to salvage their tarnished reputation in the wake of an inquisitional trial that saw four of their brothers executed as heretics. Moreover, I argue that its perceived iconographic incoherence replicates a breakdown in the altar’s intended persuasive function; just as scholars could not decode its polemic four centuries on, it failed to cohere into a convincing argument for the friars’ redemption. The high altar thus offers an opportunity to reflect on what it means for a new iconography to come into being and, in turn, to lose its legibility for Reformation and modern viewers alike.

Published: July 2022

Among Indigenous People in Canada and around the world, the health impacts of COVID-19 have been measured largely through biological, social, and psychological impacts. Our study draws from a relational concept of health to examines two objectives: 1) how social distancing protocols have shaped Indigenous connections with self, family, wider community, and nature; and 2) to exploring what these changing relationships mean for perceptions of health. Carried out by an Indigenous team of scholars, community activists and students, this research draws from a decolonizing methodology and qualitative interviews (n=16) with Indigenous health and social care providers in urban and reserve settings. Our results illustrate a considerable decline in interpersonal connections, such as with family, community organizations, and larger social networks, as a result of social distancing. Among those already vulnerable, underlying health, social, and economic inequities have been exacerbated. While the health impacts of COVID-19 have been overwhelmingly negative, participants noted the importance of this time for self-reflection and reconnection of human-kind and with mother earth. This paper offers an alternative perspective to popularized views of Indigenous experiences of COVID-19 as they relate to vulnerability and resilience.

El presente artículo tiene como objetivo analizar el caso de Mariana de la Candelaria, una mujer de mediana edad acusada de brujería y hechicería en Charcas en el siglo XVIII y procesada por la Inquisición de México, cuya causa se prolongó por ocho años. Con el propósito de acercarnos a Mariana desde una perspectiva que no reprodujera los cánones inquisitoriales, nos centramos en algunos aspectos del expediente que dan cuenta de sus conocimientos y conflictos personales; es decir, si bien están presentes algunas narraciones consideradas “supersticiosas, hechiceriles o de brujería”, éstas no buscan caracterizar a la mujer, sino dibujar esa delgada línea entre lo que estaba permitido y lo que no en esa sociedad y cómo esas ideas fueron empleadas en su contra por sus vecinos. Esto nos permitió observar que este caso, aun cuando se parece al de muchas otras mujeres procesadas por el Tribunal inquisitorial, contiene elementos que le dan cierta particularidad; a la vez que nos posibilitó acercarnos a los saberes y prácticas medicinales que eran aplicados en regiones distantes, donde no había casi presencia de médicos y cómo las mujeres curanderas suplían esa función, incluso generando una pugna con el poder religioso.
Analyzing Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Decision Making towards modernized Canada – Israel Free Trade Agreement (2015 – 2019)
Authors: Jaya Muhammad Ridho Alviora , Kusumawardani Natasya
Published: July 2022

In the beginning of the State of Israel establishment, western countries showed the most support towards the government in Tel Aviv, including Canada. Strong economic partnership between Canada and the State of Israel that was marked by the ratification of Canada-Israel Free Trade Agreement (CIFTA) back in January 1997 which became Canada’s first trade agreement outside the North American area. During the leadership of Canadian Conservative Party Prime Minister Stephen Harper, the agreement began the negotiation of modernization and was done in 2019 during the leadership period of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. The second phase of negotiations that were held in 2017-2018 during the Trudeau period has included certain provisions that arguably believe to be Trudeau's personal concern. American and Canadian research mostly shows how Canadian’s leader in certain periods gave their support towards Israel to such an extent that they method of building relationship. Therefore, the goal of this paper is to investigate more about the leader's individual factors towards Jewish government. Question about what influence Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's decision making process towards continuing negotiations and the ratification of trade agreement was employed by the Juliet Kaarbo theory of Prime Minister Leadership style. The theory uses five variables to assess leaders’ behavior and personality. Result of this study concludes that there are some variables that have significant roles in explaining the decision-making process of Justin Trudeau during the second negotiations until the ratifications process.
Analyzing The Presence of Russia in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea
Authors: Bryan Daniel , Farid Muhammad
Published: July 2022

The Mediterranean Sea has an attraction for countries that want to control this area. Among them are the abundant energy resources (such as oil and natural gas), have international trade routes that connect Europe, Africa, and Asia, and offer beaches or ports that can be built and operate year-round. Therefore, a superpower country like Russia is interested in becoming one of the actors that dominate this region. Russian activity in this region has occurred since the era of the Russian empire (Tsardom). However, over time, Russia has ambitions to regain control of the area they previously controlled. The Mediterranean region, especially the Eastern Mediterranean, is a strategic area for Russia in carrying out its foreign policy interests where they want to secure natural resource reserves and international trade routes and look for ports that can operate for a full year. This research aims to analyze how Russia's foreign policy interests result in its presence in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea. Using qualitative research methods, this research will analyze Russia's presence in the East Mediterranean Sea. This research finds that Russia can demonstrate its presence in the Eastern Mediterranean region by using several political manoeuvres such as the annexation of Crimea, establishing relations with Turkey and Syria, and the use of energy politics in their foreign policy.

Stafrænt málsambýli íslensku og ensku. Áhrif ensks ílags og málnotkunar á málfærni íslenskra barna title
Authors: Nowenstein Iris Edda , Sigurjónsdóttir Sigríður
Published: July 2022

Undanfarin ár hefur umræða um áhrif aukinnar enskunotkunar hér á landi á íslenskufærni barna verið áberandi. Í þeirri umræðu hefur jafnvel verið gert ráð fyrir orsakasamhengi, þar sem aukin enska í málumhverfi barna er talin valda slakari færni þeirra í íslensku, án þess að niðurstöður rannsókna liggi þar að baki. Þessi umræða um hugsanlegar afleiðingar nánara málsambýlis íslensku við ensku, meðal annars í kjölfar snjalltækjavæðingar og fleiri tækninýjunga, voru hvatinn að rannsóknarverkefninu „Greining á málfræðilegum afleiðingum stafræns málsambýlis“ (http://molicodilaco.hi.is), sem hlaut öndvegisstyrk Rannsóknasjóðs Íslands á árunum 2016–2019. Í öndvegisverkefninu var meðal annars leitast við að setja umræðuna í fræðilegt samhengi og afla rannsóknargagna til þess að svara þeirri spurningu hvort alþjóðamálið enska, sem er ríkjandi mál í stafrænum miðlum, geti haft áhrif á máltöku móðurmáls eða fyrsta máls, þrátt fyrir að hið síðarnefnda sé aðalmál samfélagsins.

Slíkt málsambýli hefur lítið sem ekkert verið rannsakað út frá sjónarhóli máltöku fyrsta máls, en í fræðilegri umfjöllun í þessari grein er gerð grein fyrir niðurstöðum rannsókna á þremur ólíkum rannsóknarsviðum sem tengjast viðfangsefninu. Þá er fjallað um öndvegisverkefnið og gerð grein fyrir niðurstöðum barnahluta þess sem tók til 3–12 ára barna. Lögð er áhersla á ílag og málnotkun barnanna og samband þessara þátta við íslenska og enska málfærni þeirra, bæði orðaforða og málfræði. Þær niðurstöður sem fjallað er um í greininni byggja á svörum 724 barna og foreldra þeirra við viðamikilli netkönnun, sem send var til 1.500 barna (svarhlutfall 48%), og ítarlegri prófunum og viðtölum við 106 börn (og foreldra þeirra) sem tóku þátt í netkönnuninni. Niðurstöður tölfræðilegrar greiningar á gögnunum úr barnahluta öndvegisverkefnisins gefa ekki til kynna víðtæk áhrif ensks ílags og málnotkunar á íslenskufærni barnanna enn sem komið er, þótt marktæk tengsl komi fram á milli ensku í málumhverfinu og nokkurra mállegra breyta, til dæmis hefðbundinnar notkunar viðtengingarháttar í íslensku og meðallengdar segða í íslensku málsýnunum. Mælingar á magni hvors tungumáls í málumhverfi barnanna og málnotkunar þeirra leiða í ljós að mikil enskunotkun er ekki endilega alltaf á kostnað íslenskunnar, auk þess sem enskumagn og enskuáhugi barnanna tengist aukinni enskufærni þeirra. Almennt má segja að niðurstöður okkar bendi til að enskt ílag og málnotkun spái enn sem komið er að litlu leyti fyrir um íslenskufærni 3–12 ára barna en spái mun betur fyrir um enskufærni þeirra.
„brooo, wtf!?!?“ Um áhrif stafrænnar tækni á ritun slangurs meðal unglinga

Published: July 2022

Skólaárið 2019–2020 svöruðu 1096 unglingar víðs vegar um landið rafrænni könnun um slangur. Þessi grein fjallar um það hvernig áhrif stafrænnar tækni birtast í svörunum. Sams konar könnun var lögð fyrir haustið 2000 en þá handskrifuðu nemendur svör sín. Samanburður á þessum tveimur könnunum bendir til þess að netsamskipti með lyklaborðum og snertiskjáum geti ýtt undir frumlega notkun unglinga á tungumálinu. Hin hefðbundna hugmynd um að formlegt málsnið hæfi best í rituðu máli á ekki lengur við enda væri nær að lýsa þeim viðmiðum sem myndast hafa í netsamskiptum sem nýju málsniði á mörkum ritmáls- og talmálsstíls. Meðal þess sem virðist hafa aukist síðan um aldamótin er ýmiss konar leikur að stöfun, margföldun bókstafa, skammstafanir, afklippur og aðrar styttingar. Flest atriðin sem fjallað er um í greininni birtast bæði í íslenskum og enskum orðum í svörum þátttakenda en virðast þó heldur algengari í þeim ensku.

Í greininni er fjallað um sambýli íslensku og ensku eins og það birtist í málnotkun 92 framhaldsskólanema á samfélagsmiðlinum Facebook.

Í ljósi umræðu um vaxandi enskunotkun á tímum alþjóðavæðingar og örra tæknibreytinga, auk þess sem málvíxl eru talin eitt megineinkenna unglingamáls, kemur ef til vill á óvart að hlutfall ensku er einungis 3,02% af heildarorðaforðanum í gögnum okkar (831 orð af 27.475). Almennt eru málvíxl algengari í einkaspjalli en á sýnilegum vettvangi, það er í stöðuuppfærslum og athugasemdum, eins og við mátti búast, en meðaltölin segja þó ekki alla söguna. Hlutfall ensku sveiflast til að mynda frá 0,16% í samtali um skólaverkefni upp í 30,47% í ærslafullu spjalli um næturlíf, tónlist og myndbönd á Youtube. Þó er ekkert í gögnum okkar sem bendir til tvítyngdra málaðstæðna þar sem enska er notuð sem grunnmál samhliða íslensku. Meðal þess sem rannsókn okkar leiðir í ljós er að ungmennin nota ensku helst þegar þau virðist vanta orð á íslensku, í upphrópunum, til áhersluauka, í leikrænum tilgangi og til að styrkja tengsl sín á milli. Þessar niðurstöður eru í samræmi við það sem sambærilegar erlendar rannsóknir hafa leitt í ljós. Auk þess kemur enska gjarnan við sögu í þeim textum sem birtir eru með myndum í stöðuuppfærslum. Það sem síðan ræður mestu um hvort málvíxlum er beitt eru annars vegar málaðstæðurnar og hins vegar umræðuefnið. Á samtalsþráðunum er almennt meiri tilhneiging til að skipta yfir í ensku en það fer þó mjög mikið eftir umræðuefninu. Þegar rætt er um efni á borð við skóla eða almennar frístundir heyrir til undantekninga að gripið sé til ensku en þegar talið berst að tölvuleikjum, sjónvarpsþáttum og tilteknum sérhæfðum viðfangsefnum eru málvíxl býsna áberandi.
„að draga úr fjarlægðinni sem skilur okkur frá veröldinni“. Plágan og meðvitaður dauði Albert Camus
Authors: Pálsson Jón Bragi
Published: July 2022

Skáldsaga Albert Camus, La Peste (Plágan) segir frá samfélagi þar sem drepsótt brýst út. Sagan á sér stað í alsírsku borginni Oran og hverfist um lækninn Rieux og samstarfsmenn hans sem berjast með öllum tiltækum ráðum gegn plágunni. Drepsóttin sækir þó sífellt í sig veðrið og verður þúsundum að bana áður en yfir lýkur. Dauðinn gegnir lykilhlutverki í heimspeki Camus en í greininni verður leitast við að draga saman umfjöllun hans um dauðann í nokkrum lykilverkum hans til að varpa ljósi á ákveðna heildarkenningu sem býr þar að baki. Jafnframt er því lýst hvernig kenningin tekur á sig mynd í skáldsögunni Plágan og hvernig sagan dregur fram þætti sem eru mikilvægir til að útskýra heimspeki Albert Camus.
Hamfarir samfélagssjónleiksins: Um stórslysabókmenntir annars áratugar 21. aldar
Authors: Antonsson Atli
Published: July 2022

Greinin reynir að svara spurningunni hvers vegna svo margar íslenskar skáldsögur áratugarins 2010–2019 hafi fjallað um náttúruhamfarir og í flestum tilvikum eldgos. Í innganginum er bent á hliðstæðar greiningar á sögulegu samhengi bandarískra stórslysakvikmynda. Sú skýringartilgáta er lögð fram að há tíðni náttúruhamfara í skáldskap áratugarins tengist menningarlegu uppgjöri við Hrunið og tengda atburði. Því er haldið fram að tengsl skáldsagnanna við þessar sögulegu aðstæður skýrist séu þær lesnar sem hluti af því sem skoski mannfræðingurinn Victor Turner kallaði samfélagssjónleiki (e. social drama). Næstu kaflar greinarinnar innihalda rökstuðning fyrir kenningunni um tengsl Hrunsins og náttúruhamfara í skáldskap. Helstu rökin eru fengin með nákvæmum lestri tíu skáldsagna sem eru mátaðar við kenningu Turners um þróun samfélagssjónleikja. Í ljós kemur að þær passa vel inn í þetta greiningarmódel að því er virðist með þeirri niðurstöðu að samfélagssjónleikurinn hafi leitt til klofnings í ýmsum skilningi. Í lokaorðunum er þeirri hugmynd varpað fram að á þriðja áratugnum muni skáldskapur sem tengist úrvinnslu kórónuveirufaraldursins velta eldgosum úr sessi sem algengustu náttúruhamfarirnar í íslenskum skáldsögum.
Arfur Platons. Þrætubókarlist, samræður og efahyggja

Dostępność do dóbr jako substytut własności w świetle badania zamówień publicznych udzielanych przez JST w Polsce
Authors: Godlewska Małgorzata
Published: July 2022

Celem niniejszego artykułu było zbadanie, czy jednostki samorządu terytorialnego, które są największą grupą zamawiających publicznych w Polsce, udzielają zrównoważonych zamówień publicznych, w których kładą nacisk na dostęp do dóbr jako substytutu własności. Badanie empiryczne zostało zrealizowane przy użyciu ankiety elektronicznej, która została wysłana do wszystkich n = 2807 jednostek samorządu terytorialnego. Otrzymano n = 1041 odpowiedzi, co stanowi 37 proc. badanej populacji. Na podstawie otrzymanych odpowiedzi przeprowadzono ekonomiczną analizę znowelizowanego Prawa zamówień publicznych (Pzp) pod kątem wspierania zamawiających w udzielaniu zrównoważonych zamówień publicznych. W efekcie przeprowadzonej ekonomicznej analizy Pzp rekomenduje się promowanie dobrych praktyk wśród zamawiających w zakresie każdorazowego badania w ramach przeprowadzanej analizy potrzeb i wymagań czy zasadne jest udzielenie zamówienia publicznego na dostęp do dóbr/usług.
Zrównoważony rozwój sieci franczyzowej w świetle teorii agencji
Authors: Andrzejak Maria
Published: July 2022

W opracowaniu przedstawiono problem efektu gapowicza w kontekście standardów zrównoważonego rozwoju. Celem opracowania jest ocena działań na rzecz zrównoważonego rozwoju sieci franczyzowej w zestawieniu z występującym, zgodnie z teorią agencji, efektem gapowicza. Konflikty powstające na poziomie pryncypał–agent (franczyzodawca–franczyzobiorca) oraz zachowania oportunistyczne ze strony franczyzobiorców mogą osłabić wprowadzone zmiany, między innymi poprzez występowanie efektu gapowicza.Artykuł powstał w oparciu o przegląd polskiej i zagranicznej literatury przedmiotu. Ponadto przeprowadzono analizę konfliktu pryncypał – agent, wynikającego z teorii agencji w zestawieniu ze standardami zrównoważonego rozwoju i wprowadzonych dobrych praktyk przez sieci franczyzowe. Wnioski wynikające z krytycznej analizy piśmiennictwa sugerują możliwość zmniejszenia skuteczności działań na rzecz zrównoważonego rozwoju poprzez zachowania oportunistyczne franczyzobiorców. W celu ich ograniczenia wymagany jest system kontroli. Aktywny udział franczyzobiorców przyczynia się do skuteczności dobrych praktyk wprowadzanych przez sieć
Znaczenie informacji niefinansowej w świetle wymogów zrównoważonego rozwoju oraz turbulentnego otoczenia
Authors: Rogowski Waldemar , Lipski Mariusz
Published: July 2022

W świetle rosnącego znaczenia koncepcji zrównoważonego rozwoju, jak również wynikających z jej założeń czynników, rośnie także rola sprawozdawczości niefinansowej przedsiębiorstw. Coraz ważniejsze staje się także uwzględnianie w rachunku ekonomicznym aspektów społecznych, korporacyjnych oraz środowiskowych. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie wyników analizy zakresu oraz roli i znaczenia informacji niefinansowych w kontekście zmian zachodzących w otoczeniu przedsiębiorstw. Postawiono również tezę, że w świetle rosnącego znaczenia koncepcji zrównoważonego rozwoju oraz turbulencji w gospodarce, spowodowanych czynnikami egzogenicznymi (pandemia COVID-19 oraz wojna w Ukrainie), aspekty niefinansowe stają się coraz bardziej istotnym i ważnym elementem oceny standingu finansowego, ryzyka funkcjonowania oraz perspektyw dalszej działalności podmiotów gospodarczych. Po przeprowadzeniu analizy postawiona teza została potwierdzona. Ocena kondycji przedsiębiorstwa oraz perspektyw jego dalszej działalności wyłącznie na podstawie danych i informacji zawartych w sprawozdaniu finansowym, z racji braku możliwości kompleksowej oceny, może prowadzić do błędnych wniosków, a w efekcie do błędnych decyzji inwestycyjnych.
Rachunkowość w realizacji potrzeb informacyjnych i edukacyjnych w aspekcie zrównoważonego rozwoju
Authors: Baran Wioletta
Published: July 2022

Artykuł dotyczy rachunkowości jako systemu informacyjnego odpowiadającego na potrzeby ekonomiczno-społeczne, tak informacyjne, jak i edukacyjne. Podjęcie tematu wynika z przekonania, że zarówno nauka, jej zastosowanie w praktyce, jak i samo kształcenie są realizowane w odpowiedzi na potrzeby społeczeństwa w celu jego rozwoju. Rozwój natomiast wpisuje się w przyszłość, w której co do zasady powinno być tylko lepiej, do czego nawiązuje koncepcja zrównoważonego rozwoju. Celem artykułu jest ukazanie rachunkowości jako systemu zrównoważonego w dostarczaniu informacji do zaspokajania potrzeb ekonomiczno-społecznych, jak i edukacyjnych, co jest istotne w podejmowaniu działań na rzecz zrównoważonego rozwoju. Rozważania teoretyczne dotyczą rachunkowości jako zrównoważonego sytemu informacyjnego oraz wybranych aspektów edukacji jako istotnej dziedziny w dążeniu do zrównoważonego rozwoju. Za ilustrację wybranych aspektów edukacyjnych posłużyły możliwości edukacyjne w ramach rachunkowości. Poza powszechnie dostępnymi informacjami wykorzystano pogłębioną analizę przypadku dotyczącą oferty dydaktycznej Szkoły Głównej Handlowej w Warszawie. Uzyskane wyniki badań wskazują, że rachunkowość jest zrównoważonym systemem informacji oraz przykładem zrównoważonego systemu w edukacji. W obydwu aspektach jest systemem, który odpowiada na potrzeby definiowane w ramach działań podejmowanych na rzecz zrównoważonego rozwoju.
Systemowe narzędzia oceny sytuacji ekonomiczno-finansowej podmiotów leczniczych
Authors: Świerc Zuzanna
Published: July 2022

System opieki zdrowotnej to jeden z najważniejszych obszarów funkcjonowania państwa. Jego podstawowym zadaniem jest organizacja dostępu obywateli do bezpłatnych świadczeń medycznych. Działalność lecznicza podlega szczególnym regulacjom, określającym warunki formalne, techniczne i zasobowe jej prowadzenia. Finansowanie świadczeń opieki zdrowotnej ma charakter regulowany – instytucje systemowe odpowiadają za ich wycenę i ustalanie taryf. Zapewnienie stabilności systemu wymaga monitorowania jego efektywności. Jednym z elementów systemu powinna być obiektywna i systematyczna ocena sytuacji ekonomiczno-finansowej świadczeniodawców, determinująca ciągłość i dostępność świadczeń. Celem niniejszego artykułu jest ocena narzędzi kontroli sytuacji ekonomiczno-finansowej podmiotów leczniczych w kontekście ich użyteczności z perspektywy nadzoru systemowego. Analizie poddano mierniki oceny sytuacji finansowej dotyczącej prowadzenia działalności leczniczej oraz warunków finansowania świadczeń. Wnioski z analizy krytycznej powinny posłużyć weryfikacji systemowych rozwiązań.
Ujawnianie informacji dotyczących celów zrównoważonego rozwoju na przykładzie działalności leśnej i pocztowej
Authors: Karwowski Mariusz , Paszkiewicz Anna , Zubrzycka Edyta
Published: July 2022

Zrównoważony rozwój od wielu lat stanowi kluczowy element strategii większości organizacji na świecie. Jego cele zostały przyjęte w rezolucji Zgromadzenia Ogólnego ONZ Przekształcamy nasz świat: Agenda na rzecz zrównoważonego rozwoju 2030. Ze względu na rolę i znaczenie leśnictwa i usług pocztowych w harmonizowaniu celów ekonomicznych, społecznych i środowiskowych za interesujące zagadnienie można uznać sposób ujawniania różnego rodzaju działań przez podmioty zaangażowane w tego typu działalność. Celem artykułu jest wskazanie zakresu ujawnianych informacji odnoszących się do celów zrównoważonego rozwoju przez podmioty prowadzące działalność leśną i pocztową. Założony cel został zrealizowany dzięki przeglądowi opracowań krajowych i zagranicznych oraz analizie treści dokumentów sporządzanych obowiązkowo i dobrowolnie. Na podstawie przeprowadzonego badania stwierdzono, że obowiązkowe ujawnienia dostarczają ograniczonych informacji na temat realizacji celów zrównoważonego rozwoju. Więcej informacji można uzyskać z ujawnień o charakterze dobrowolnym. Nie stwierdzono szczególnego prymatu wymiaru środowiskowego nad społecznym i odwrotnie.
‘The Exception Which Proves the Rule’: Gurbet and Historical Constellations of Mobility in Istanbul’s Old City
Authors: Su Janine
Published: July 2022

Regimes of relative location in much of the former Ottoman Mediterranean position migrating from one’s hometown or village as ‘going to gurbet’ – a term that best translates as ‘exile’ (Said 2000) – and those who leave are expected to perform exile in various ways. In contemporary Turkey, this expectation is particularly upheld among those who lack the social and institutional capital to navigate strict international visa schemes. In the Ottoman era, other mobile trajectories were available to peasants wishing to see more of the world, but these were lost in the structural upheavals of the transition to the modern nation-state era. However, the phenomenological descendants of mobile figures like bandits did not go extinct with the societal structures that begat them. Drawing on more than 18 months of ethnographic fieldwork in Istanbul’s touristic Sultanahmet district, this chapter identifies the disconnect between historical and modern constellations of socio-spatial movement, and explores how it renders the subjectivities of some young men ‘unintelligible’ (Butler 2009) to normative sociability today. These subjectivities are distinct for their affective detachment from gurbet, so their efforts to self-actualise mobile aspirations initially go unrecognised. Those who exhibit sufficient ‘performative excellence’ (Herzfeld 1985) to enact these aspirations, however, are then disparaged as upstarts and explained away as ‘exceptions’.
