Construção das masculinidades rurais em Grande sertão: veredas
Authors: Santos Manoel Antônio dos , Lima-Santos André Villela de Souza , Araújo Jeferson Santos , Oliveira Wanderlei Abadio de
Published: April 2023

Resumo: Neste estudo teórico-reflexivo, nos propomos a investigar a construção de versões de masculinidades rurais a partir de uma leitura do romance Grande sertão: veredas, de Guimarães Rosa. Para tanto, recorremos aos conceitos de masculinidade hegemônica, propostos por Connell, e performatividade, elaborado por Butler. A pesquisa percorre três eixos ordenadores: 1) uma breve exposição sobre as abordagens em masculinidades, resgatando sua gênese nas teorias feministas que inauguraram os estudos de gênero; 2) os processos de generificação na perspectiva da construção da masculinidade rural; 3) uma leitura da relação entre Riobaldo e Diadorim. Destacamos que gênero não se subsome a uma substância, embora reproduza efeitos substanciais, percebidos em distintas versões da masculinidade hegemônica performadas pelo bando de jagunços personificados na epopeia rosiana.

Published: April 2023

Bone is one of the most complex, inaccessible body structures, responsible for calcium storage and haematopoiesis. The second highest cause of death across the world is cancer. Amongst all the types of cancers, bone cancer treatment modalities are limited due to the structural complexity and inaccessibility of bones. The worldwide incidence of bone diseases and bone defects due to cancer, infection, trauma, age-related bone degeneration is increasing. Currently different conventional therapies are available for bone cancer such as chemotherapy, surgery and radiotherapy, but they have several disadvantages associated with them. Nanomedicine is being extensively researched as viable therapeutics to mitigate drug resistance in cancer therapy and promote bone regeneration. Several natural polymers such as chitosan, dextran, alginate, hyaluronic acid, and synthetic polymers like polyglycolic acid, poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid), polycaprolactone are investigated for their application in nanomedicine for bone cancer treatment and bone regeneration. Nanocarriers have shown promising results in preclinical experimental studies. However, they still face a major drawback of inadequate targetability. The paper summarizes the status of research and the progress made so far in modifications and functionalization of natural polymers for improving their site specificity and targeting for effective treatment of bone cancer and enhancing bone regeneration.
In situ synthesis of ferrate based on calcium hypochlorite for organic matter removal
Authors: Zhang Jiao , Zhao Wenting , Zhou Zhenfeng
Published: April 2023

Ferrate is a promising environment-friendly water-treatment agent due to its multiple function. However, its large-scale application in sewage treatment is limited because of its instability in aqueous solution and the high cost of pure ferrate. This study demonstrated an improved wet oxidation process for synthesising ferrate by oxidising ferric with calcium hypochlorite (Ca(ClO)2). The effects of reagent dosage and temperature on ferrate (VI) were investigated. The optimum conditions for ferrate (VI) synthesis was obtained (1 g of calcium hypochlorite, 5 g of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and 4 g of iron (III) chloride (FeCl3) in 25 ml of water at 20°C and stirring for 30 min). Under the optimum conditions, the available chlorine and sodium hydroxide amount was about one-fifth and one-half of that of traditional sodium hypochlorite oxidation, respectively. The product was characterised by ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It was concluded that ferrate was present in the generated ferrate solution. Low-temperature, airtight and shading conditions and the addition of sodium silicate are conducive to the preservation of fresh ferrate. At pH 5.0, fresh ferrate could effectively remove methylene blue (MB) and chlorpyrifos in water, and the average removal rate of MB or chlorpyrifos was about 55% higher than that by pure ferrate.
Discipline Hopping for Environmental Solutions: An Art-Science Collaboration
Authors: Nattress Clare , Bryant Daniel
Published: April 2023

The two disciplines of art and science have long been identified as separate research fields, often presumed as adopting strikingly different working practices. It can be considered however, that notions of process, experimentation, attention to detail, rigour and curiosity are all commonly shared components. The sharing of ideas and methodologies between artists and scientists have allowed for significant insights, innovation, and research engagement. Air pollution is an invisible killer, with much of the world's population breathing polluted air every day without being able to see it. The visualisation of air pollution is therefore of great importance for public understanding and motivation to improve air quality policies. This paper will uncover what an art-science collaboration can bring to both creative and academic research of air pollution and why interdisciplinary practice should be encouraged. Additionally, we can consider how effective an art and science hybrid is for engaging and affecting audiences. 
The effect of clay minerals on in-situ leaching of uranium
Authors: Petukhov O. F. , Khalimov I. U. , Istomin V. P. , Karimov N. М.
Published: April 2023

In recent years, with the development of techniques and methods for in-situ leaching (ISL), additional uranium extraction from previously worked-out blocks is becoming not only relevant, but also quite achievable. In this case, the extraction of residual uranium reserves from previously worked-out blocks does not require additional costs for the necessary infrastructure. One of the most important factors in the formation of residual uranium reserves in worked-out blocks is the presence of clay minerals in the ore horizon. In this regard, we conducted a number of studies on the adverse and positive effects of clay minerals on ISL process. Water permeability and relatively good filtration (not less than 0.5–1 m/day) of ores and rocks of a productive horizon (aquifer) is the most important hydrogeological factors affecting the performance of uranium ISL. The second most important hydrogeological factor is the lack of fluid communication between the productive aquifer and nonproductive aquifers, i.e., the obligatory presence of aquicludes. The role of clays in these hydrogeological factors is twofold. On the one hand, the presence of clays negatively affects both the solutions filtration rate and uranium extraction. On the other hand, the presence of clay minerals (forming an aquiclude) enhances the effect of ISL. The study findings allowed the role of clay minerals in uranium ISL to be assessed. The diffusion coefficients of nitrate ions in the clays were determined, and the protective effect of aquicludes was calculated. The effect of the clay content in the ore sand horizon on the solutions filtration coefficients was also established. The static uranium exchange capacity of clays was determined by studying the process of uranium sorption by clay samples from sulfate and bicarbonate solutions. The studies established the diffusion coefficients of nitrate ions in montmorillonite and kaolinite clays, which amounted to 3.34 10−6 and 2.14 · 10−6 cm2/s. Taking into account the calculated values of diffusion coefficients, the protective time of the clayey aquiclude for nitrate ions was 43 years. At 20 % clay minerals content, the solution filtration coefficient decreases to values where ISL conditions become unfavorable. It was found experimentally that the sorption of uranium by clay minerals depends on both the nature of the clays and the composition of the solution. Uranium sorption from sulfate solutions proceeds noticeably better than that from bicarbonate solutions. The highest values of the static uranium exchange capacity were obtained for bentonite (104 mg/g).
Kleiner Schwanengesang
Authors: Kemmerer Alexandra
Published: April 2023

«Es gibt keinen Weg zurück in den Stand der Unschuld.» Am Ende der Diskussion kam Fritz Stern an diesem Abend am Wannsee auf einen Satz zurück, den Michael Stolleis an den Beginn seines Vortrags «Teaching International Law under the Swastika» gestellt hatte. Für einen Amerikaner habe dieser Satz im Jahrzehnt des Irakkrieges und der Terrorbekämpfung eine besondere Bedeutung, bemerkte der deutschamerikanische Historiker, «in Zeiten, in denen man sich – unter sehr anderen Vorzeichen – mit der Frage auseinandersetzen muss, wie das Recht interpretiert und wie es fehlinterpretiert wird». Stolleis hatte sich in seinen Ausführungen auf ein Kapitel der Geschichte des öffentlichen Rechts in Deutschland beschränkt. Er untersuchte völkerrechtliche Konzeptionen wie die «Großraumordnung», mit der Carl Schmitt seit 1939 an geopolitisches Schrifttum der Zwischenkriegszeit anknüpfte und zugleich eine Rechtfertigung des Angriffskrieges unternahm.
Abschied von Dieter Henrich
Authors: von Bülow Ulrich
Published: April 2023

Dass ich Dieter Henrich kennenlernen durfte, verdanke ich der Konstellation einer Marbacher Tagung über die «Marburger Hermeneuten». Mein Freund Matthias Bormuth hatte die Idee, den damals bereits 79-jährigen Philosophen einzuladen. 1927 in Marburg geboren, war Henrich den Marburger philosophischen Giganten der Vorkriegszeit, Heidegger und Bultmann, noch persönlich begegnet, Hans-Georg Gadamer wurde in Heidelberg sein akademischer Mentor, Karl Löwith ein Gesprächspartner, und Leo Strauss besuchte er mehrfach in den USA. Über all diese Menschen und seine Begegnungen mit ihnen konnte Henrich aus dem Stegreif sprechen. Uns begeisterte seine Beschreibungskunst, seine Fähigkeit, Personen und ihre Positionen, Ereignisse und Orte in wenigen Strichen anschaulich zu vergegenwärtigen und zugleich philosophisch zu deuten. Im Lauf der kommenden Jahre führten Matthias und ich in manchmal längeren, manchmal kürzeren Abständen mit Dieter Henrich in München und in Stuttgart eine Reihe von weiteren Gesprächen über sein Leben. und seine Werke, die als Ins Denken ziehen. Eine philosophische Autobiographie ein Jahr vor seinem Tod erscheinen konnten.
Max Liebermann auf der Garteninsel
Authors: Hollender Martin
Published: April 2023

In seinem Sommerhaus am Wannsee verbrachte Max Liebermann seit 1910 die warme Jahreszeit. Liest man allein die gut fünfzig Briefe, die er vom Wannsee in die Welt sandte und die im Archiv der Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin zu finden sind, erweist sich seine Gartenwelt am See als brüchiges Paradies. Im letzten Sommer des Krieges, Mitte Juli 1918, hatte Liebermann Richard von Kühlmann porträtiert, der wenige Tage zuvor als Außenminister wegen seiner Zweifel an einem militärischen Sieg Deutschlands und seiner Befürwortung eines Ausgleichsfriedens von der Obersten Heeresleitung zum Rücktritt gezwungen worden war. Der geschasste Minister nahm gegenüber Liebermann wohl kein Blatt vor den Mund. «Ziemlich hoffnungslos» sei diese Zeit, «wenigstens nach dem was mir Kühlmann, den ich vorige Woche zeichnete, gesagt hat», schreibt Liebermann resigniert darauf am 21. Juli an Max Lehrs, doch sogleich kehrt die Langmut des Künstlers zurück: «Doch wir wollen es wie der Bandwurm machen, der bekanntlich den Kopf immer oben behält.»

«Besprechung mit anschließendem Frühstück zum 20. Januar 1942 um 12,00 Uhr, Berlin, Am Grossen Wannsee 56–58». Auf der Tagesordnung – die «mit der Endlösung der Judenfrage zusammenhängenden Fragen». Eingeladen hatte Reinhard Heydrich, Chef des Reichssicherheitshauptamtes (RSHA), in das Gästehaus der SS am Wannsee fünfzehn hochrangige Amtsträger aus der nationalsozialistischen Reichsregierung und den Sonderbehörden. Unter den Teilnehmern war aus dem Reichssicherheitshauptamt auch Adolf Eichmann («Referat IV B 4»), der ein Protokoll der Besprechung anfertigen ließ. Die Politikwissenschaftlerin Deborah Hartmann leitet seit Ende 2020 die Gedenk- und Bildungsstätte Haus der Wannsee-Konferenz. Bis heute ist in der Forschung umstritten, welche Rolle der Konferenz am Großen Wannsee bei der Planung eines Völkermordes zukommt. Markiert die Besprechung am 20. Januar 1942 den Umschlagpunkt von einem «offenen» Antisemitismus zu einem «geheimen» Massenmord?
Kleist. Tod am Wannsee
Authors: Klare Anke , Bisky Jens , Bürger Jan
Published: April 2023

Die auf Seite 85 abgebildete Bauzeichnung für ein Wohn- und Geschäftshaus gehört zu einem Kostenvoranschlag aus dem Jahr 1791 für einen neu zu errichtenden Gasthof des Wirtes Johann Friedrich Stimming am Berliner Wannsee. Literarische Bedeutung als Ort erreichte «Stimmings Krug» zwei Jahrzehnte später durch die Quartiersgäste Heinrich von Kleist und seine Gefährtin Henriette Vogel einen Tag und eine Nacht vor ihrem Freitod am 21. November 1811. Am 20. November kehrten beide, mit einer Mietkutsche von Berlin kommend, im Gasthof an der Chaussee zwischen Berlin und Potsdam ein. Sie mieteten dort zwei Zimmer im oberen Stockwerk, die mit einer Tür miteinander verbunden waren. Nach Aussagen des Wirts blieben beide die ganze Nacht wach. Sie bestellten Lichter sowie Schreibzeug und verfassten mehrere Abschiedsbriefe. Am Nachmittag des nächsten Tages erschoss Kleist erst Henriette Vogel und danach sich selbst am gegenüberliegenden Ufer des Kleinen Wannsees, damals «Stolper Loch» genannt.
Disarming the dispirited South African: A critical analysis of the proposed ban on firearms for self-defence
Authors: Nortje Windell , Hull Shane
Published: April 2023

In South Africa, owning a firearm is a privilege and not a right. This privilege is regulated by the Firearms Control Act 60 of 2000. In May 2021, the Minister of Police published the Firearms Control Amendment Bill (FCAB), 2021, which contains a section prohibiting individuals from obtaining a firearm for self-defence purposes. This article challenges this view and argues that firearm owners should not be banned from protecting their right to life with a firearm. It looks at the reasons why the Bill was published as well as its purposes. The enactment of such a Bill would have severe consequences for individuals who want to protect their constitutional rights in a country with one of the highest crime rates in the world. Consequently, the article also examines the impact the proposed prohibition would have on self-defence by means of a firearm. Furthermore, the South African Police Service (SAPS) is reluctant to address its own challenges, which have contributed significantly to the proliferation of unlicensed firearms. The supply of firearms by SAPS to criminals will be examined and recommendations made for addressing the dilemma faced by SAPS. SAPS should rectify and professionalise its firearm regime instead of disarming South Africans, who are desperately in need of a peaceful society. Finally, proposals are made as to how firearm control could be improved.

В статье представлены результаты теоретического анализа особенностей профессиональной деятельности специалистов сферы информационных технологий (ИТ-специалистов) в контексте рисков развития у них синдрома выгорания. Выгорание рассматривается каксистемное качество субъекта труда, имеющее трёхкомпонентную структуру. В качестве субфакторов выступают эмоциональное истощение, деперсонализация, редукция личных достижений. Синдром выгорания формируется вследствие взаимодействия субъекта труда со стрессами на работе. Выгорание проявляется в негативных психических состояниях, установках, отношениик себе, личным достижениям, к работе. Цель. Целью настоящего исследования являлся теоретический обзор современных публикаций по теме синдрома выгорания специалистов ИT-сферы и определение детерминант выгорания у ИТ-специалистов. Метод. В работе используется аналитический метод. Результаты. В современных исследованиях нет однозначного ответа оспецифике выгорания ИT-специалистов: по данным одних авторов, для ИT-специалистов характерным является выгорание по субфакторам «эмоциональное истощение» и «редукция личных достижений», по другим — «деперсонализация» (цинизм). Очевидно, выявленные различия в типологии выгорания ИT-специалистов связаны с многообразием ИT-профессий, которые необходимо учитывать при оценке выраженности отдельных субфакторов выгорания. Представлены три группы детерминант выгорания ИТ-специалистов: 1) профессиональные (высокие требования к обучаемости, совмещение командных и функциональных ролей, высокая неопределённость — непредсказуемость рабочих задач, иллюзии гибкого графика, дистанционная коммуникация, профессиональные заболевания); 2) организационные (виртуальная организация, специфика дистанционного управления персоналом); 3) личностные (гендерные, возрастные, образ жизни, психологическая готовность к профессиональной деятельности, отношение к профессиональной деятельности). Таким образом, анализ литературы на тему выгорания подтвердил многофакторность и полидетерминированность синдрома выгорания, а также наличие специфических особенностей и факторов риска выгорания для ИТ-профессий.

Published: April 2023

Nowadays the introduction of technologies like databases hardware, software and internet systems are being adapted in the health systems. Those resourcesarrived in Brazil on the 80s and since they have more diversified. Our objective is to reflect about the introduction of computer science and its use in the practice of nursing. Now the use of modern portable systems is available in many hospitals and clinics allowing the use of information in any time or place. The nurses use the computers mainly in administration caretaking of patients, education and research. The professionals of health and the society should consider the role of the computer as communicational facilitator and also as a tool to improve efficiency in the care of patients. Despite that there is much discussion about the possibility of dehumanization in the patients care. We mustremember that the computer is only an instrument to help in care and not a substitute of the nurse

Published: April 2023

Objective: To measure the probability of occurrence of nurse-made diagnoses, together with related factors and associated problems. Methodology: A cross study was carried out in a public hospital at the municipality of Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil. Two hundred and seventy diagnostic evaluations were made by nurses on children suffering from congenital heart diseases. For statistical analyses (probability rate) diagnoses with frequencies over 50%, related factors with frequencies above the 75 percentile, and the four most common associated problems were selected. Statistical signiﬁcance was calculated with conﬁdence intervals of 95%. Results: Twenty-two nurse-made diagnoses, 34 related factors, and 23 different associated problems were identiﬁed. Seventeen signiﬁcant odds ratio were found among the diagnoses, 38 between them and the related factors, and 13 between the diagnoses and the associated problems. Discussion: The nurse-made diagnoses may be inﬂuenced by the alterations of blood ﬂow and of oxygen saturation that are characteristic of patients with congenital heart diseases. Conclusion: The joint occurrence of diagnoses increases the probability of developing multiple human responses.

Objective. To analyze the role of the institution in choosing, receiving and chaperone professors.

Methodology. Qualitative study, which body analysis was composed of 32 participations in a thematic forum of a group of nine health professionals.

Results. After professor hiring it is necessary to receive and chaperone him. Professors with longer time in the institution represent a more important role in the admission of the new professor. Chaperone process is an opportunity to change and redefine the rules, and should be supported by permanent evaluation. The university as a legitimate learning scenario, production and knowledge reconstitution, should accompany changes of contemporary science and support the interdisciplinary demands in the new knowledge construction.

Conclusion. It is fundamental the role of the university receiving and chaperoning teachers from joining. As well university should favor the growth of the professor, not only by supporting the challenges of their pedagogic activity, but mainly through the respect of autonomy.
Bacteria on the hands of children inpatients.
Authors: Candido de Almeida Marcela Cristina , Correa Ione
Published: April 2023

Objective. To estimate the prevalence of bacteria isolated in samples from the hands of school-age children at a hospitalization unit.

Methodology. In 2009, strains were cultured from the hands of 90 school-age children at the pediatric hospitalization unit of Hospital Estadual Bauru (São Paulo, Brazil). After culture of the samples, the isolated bacteria were identified.

Results. In 98% of the samples taken from the children, bacteria were isolated. Coagulase-negative Staphilococcus was isolated in 64% of the samples, followed by Staphilococcus aureus (5%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (1%).

Conclusion. In most of the samples from the children’s hands, bacteria were isolated. Therefore, educative actions about hygiene habits in- and outside the hospital environment should be reinforced, aimed at children and their companions.
Phygitally Smarter? A Critically Pragmatic Agenda for Smarter Engagement in British Planning and Beyond

Published: April 2023

In Britain as elsewhere, planning systems are entering a “digital turn.” However, the emerging conversations around PlanTech in policy, industry, and research yield contrasting views about the promises of digital technology and “data-driven” decisions to enhance and embed public participation in the planning system. With faster, data-driven processes capable of engaging more people in more diverse ways, PlanTech offers to revolutionise planning systems. However, empirical evidence demonstrates low citizen trust in government and web-based technologies, democratic and participatory deficits, the complexity of the planning system and its opaque technocratic terminology, multi-layered digital divides, and other socio-technical factors that hinder effective and inclusive public consultations in planning. This article provides a preliminary, high-level research agenda for public consultations across Britain’s three nations that centres around a critical pragmatic design, deployment, and evaluation of blended/“phygital” (simultaneously physical and digital) information-rich ecologies of smart engagement. A review of selected national policy in Britain provides initial insight into the emphasis (or lack of) put on the adoption of digital tools within the planning process of each British nation. In doing so, the research sets out a conceptual model that complements existing models for participatory planning by adopting Beyon-Davies’ unified conception of information, systems, and technology. The conceptual model presented sets out seven Is of information-rich phygital ecologies and three interdependent “pillars” for smart engagement that enable one to gaze both deeply and broadly into opportunities for smart engagement through and beyond PlanTech.

Background. The results of local destruction methods in locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPCa) are contradictory. Radiation therapy is the most commonly used. Other methods are used much less frequently, irreversible electroporation (IRE) is one of them. Most authors indicate an acceptable level of complications and mortality, but without an improvement in long-term results. The results of two meta-analyses have been published, the authors indicate the possibility of using the IRE in selected patients. The authors also point out that minimally invasive methods of using the IRE be preferred. Some experience has been gained in the use of percutaneous access for IRE in LAPCa. Computed tomography, ultrasound guidance can be used for navigation. The level of complications can reach 50 %. Mortality with percutaneous access, as a rule, is absent or does not exceed 5 %. Long-term results are the same with the results of open IRE.

Aim. To share authors experience of using percutaneous irreversible electroporation in pancreatic cancer, because there are no references to the use of percutaneous IRE in LAPCa in Russia.

Materials and methods. The IRE was performed for 53-year female patient with LAPCa after successful induction therapy. A step-by-step pulse effect of electrodes installed under ultrasound control on the tumor infiltrate was carried out. Magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography and other types of studies were used for diagnostic purposes.

Results. The involvement of the common hepatic artery and portal vein remained after the induction therapy, which did not allow performing pancreatoduodenal resection. Ultrasonic navigation and flat-detector computed tomography allowed to install the electrodes adequatly and safely. The impact zone almost completely blocked the infiltrate zone, a more optimal location of the electrodes was limited by the wide network of venous collaterals. Magnetic resonance imaging data performed before and after the procedure showed no progression of the disease within more than three months after the procedure, including in the affected area. Tumor shrinkage was noted as a partial response.

Conclusion. The first experience confirmed the safety and the absence of subsequent complications when using the percutaneous access method of IRE for LAPCa. Follow-up monitoring of the patient will allow to say more correctly about the possibility of the method to provide long-term local control.
The Rule of Law in Advisory Opinions of the International Court of Justice
Authors: Klyuchnikov A. Yu.
Published: April 2023

The concept of the rule of law is important both for the domestic law of States and in international law. In practice, some difficulties arise due to the lack of an accurate definition of its content. There is an opinion that it is easier to refer to this concept than to define its content. The problem is indicated in the documents of the United Nations (UN). The UN General Assembly resolution of 16 September 2005, in the section devoted to the rule of law principle, emphasizes the need for its universal observance and application both in national legal systems and in international law. The documents adopted under the auspices of the UN also highlight an important role played by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in the implementation of this concept. Uniform and impartial application of law by the court is a reflection of the idea of the rule of law. All the activities of the ICJ as one of the main UN bodies serve to strengthen and promote this concept. By adopting decisions and advisory opinions, the Court contributes to clarifying and strengthening the influence of international law on relations between States. The development of the idea of the rule of law also affects activities of UN bodies, increasing predictability of their activities. In its practice, the ICJ gives it exceptional legitimacy and a broad scope of action, due to which the rule of law contributes to the implementation of the goals and principles of the UN. The Court’s contribution to the promotion of the concept is particularly noticeable in the framework of ongoing activities for the peaceful settlement of international disputes, clarification and dissemination of international law and its application on an equal basis to all subjects.
Comparative Analysis of Objective Signs of Illicit Obtaining of a Loan under the Criminal Code of the People’s Republic of China and the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation
Authors: Pan Dongmei
Published: April 2023

The global financial crisis and its consequences have now received a new round of development in both the People’s Republic of China and the Russian Federation. These events very clearly demonstrate their negative impact on society and its vital activity. And as a consequence of a difficult economic situation in these two countries, the credit and banking sector of the economy today is one of the most criminogenic. The paper is devoted to the analysis of the objective composition of the illegal receipt of a loan provided for in the Criminal Code of the People’s Republic of China and the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. The author examines statutory regulation in Article 175.1 of the Criminal Code of the People’s Republic of China and Article 176 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation of mandatory signs in the context of the object, subject and other characteristics of the facts of the crime. The analysis of the legal provisions on illegal receipt of a loan indicates a number of problems related to understanding the immediate object of the crime in question, its subject and certain signs of the facts of the crime, as well as the existence of legislative gaps in the criminal law regulation of this crime in both countries. These are, first of all, the problems of legal benefits (the object of the crime) that are encroached upon by the illegal receipt of a loan, i.e., what will be its specific object and what will be the direct object; whether it is worth providing for an independent composition in relation to the state special-purpose loan with a special part; whether such negotiable documents (financial bills) as a letter of credit, accounting bills, a letter of guarantee, etc. should be included in the scope of the objects of this crime; whether there is a need to replace the norm «knowingly false information about the economic situation and financial condition» of Article 176 of the Criminal Code with the wording «deceptive method», etc. All these issues require a mandatory solution.
