Authors: Bazare Raymond Nébi , Ladji Bamba , Kadidja Dolle
Published: September 2017

The aim of this study is to show the existence of a link between ritual crimes and the cybercrime that takes place in the territory of Abidjan. It shows the logics of the actors and proposes effective policies to combat this phenomenon. It was carried out in two municipalities of Abidjan, namely: Yopougon (with the largest demographic plan) and Abobo. The survey was conducted with 50 people, including 20 in Yopougon and 30 in Abobo. The survey was conducted on the basis of reasoned choice using data collection techniques such as documentary study, observation, and inquiry. The data were analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The results show that there is no particular type of cybercriminals who commit ritual crimes. Everyone does it, but for different purposes. Most of them spell the target in order to annihilate anyone that is resistance and is refusing. For others, mystical rituals help them in their understanding of how to escape the police and justice. They involve other actors in the network on their activities. In this case, the agents of western union, targets, security agents and others are also involved.

Published: September 2017

The growth in number and size of non-governmental organizations in Kenya has been met with a growing concern about identifying their achievements and effectiveness of their projects. The struggle by majority of NGOs account for their work and demonstrate real results continues to taint their image as development change agents to various stakeholders. One way organizations can improve effectiveness of their interventions is by strengthening their monitoring and evaluation systems. This study sought to determine the influence of monitoring and evaluation systems on performance of non-governmental based maternal health projects in Bungoma South Sub-County, Kenya. Specific objectives were to: determine how monitoring and evaluation plans, human Resource capacity, nature of monitoring and evaluation information systems adopted, and stakeholder participation in monitoring and evaluation influence performance of nongovernmental maternal health projects in Bungoma South Sub-County. A descriptive survey design and correlation design was employed. With a target population of 101 respondents, a census was conducted on all respondents involved in implementation of maternal health projects from the three non-governmental organizations (AA, STC, and CREADIS). Data was collected through questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics. A fairly strong correlation of 0.607, 0.530, 0.533 and -0.489 for monitoring and evaluation plans, human resource capacity, nature of information system adopted, and stakeholder participation respectively and performance of maternal health projects. The regression analysis indicated that, taking all the independent variables at a constant zero, performance of maternal health projects was 4.087. The study recommends alignment of staff job descriptions with their M&E plans, increase the number of M&E training, conduct Routine Data Quality Assessment to detect areas of difficulties to staff, invest in Information and Communication Technology, and manage stakeholders’ involvement in Monitoring and Evaluation in order to achieve quality data.

Authors: Adegbenro C.A. , Opasina O.F. , Fehintola F.O. , Olowookere S.A.
Published: September 2017

Background: Child labour continues to be a daunting challenge worldwide. Child labour contradicts the intrinsic value Africans place on children. Objective: The study determined the prevalence and predictors of child labour. Subjects: in-school adolescents aged 10-14 years Methodology: This descriptive cross-sectional study design. The data was collected using a pre-tested semi-structured questionnaire on child labour, school attendance, and academic performance. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Result: About 31.5% of the 660 participants had ever been engaged in child labour while 24.2% were currently engaged. The types of child labour the respondents were involved in included shop trading (85.0%) and street hawking (76.3%). Most employers of child labour were parents (85.0%) and the majority (71.3%) were unpaid. Few respondents involved in child labour had good attendance record (14.2%) and good academic performance (10.6%). The predictors of child labour include mothers lower education (OR=8.786, 95%CI= 3.589-21.508, p<0.0001), having more than three children in the family (OR=2.488, 95%CI=1.403-4.425, p=0.002) and loss of parents (OR=1.7, 95%CI=1.059-2.755, p=0.028). Conclusion: Child labour was prevalent among in-school adolescents. It negatively influences school attendance and academic performance. It is necessary to discourage child labour through community sensitization and improving the socio-economic status of parents.

Acquisition as a form of corporate restructuring that is carry out to overcome the situation of financial difficulties or improve the performance of the company as a whole or part of the business unit. In Article 126 paragraph 1 of Laws of the Republic of Indonesia number 40 of 2007 concerning Limited Liability Company stated that the acquisition process should consider the interests of minority shareholders. However, sometimes acquisition decisions have already been decided in advance by the majority shareholder without involving minority shareholders. Based on this, this paper intends to analyze the form of legal protection for minority shareholders who are not involved in the acquisition process. Through the approach of legislation and case approach, it is found that Laws of the Republic of Indonesia number 40 of 2007 concerning Limited Liability Company has not provided enough legal protection to minority shareholders. The decision-making process of acquisition in the General Meeting of Shareholders should be procedurally and substantively in accordance with Laws of the Republic of Indonesia number 40 of 2007 concerning Limited Liability Company. It is intended that minority shareholders have the opportunity to exercise their voting rights even though they do not have to be the party controlling the company.

Broadcasting of criminal news on television constitutes part of freedom of the press to provide information for the public through the print media or electronic media. Broadcasting of criminal news through television describes events of crime as if we directly see from the crime scene. There have been regulation and institution providing for and overseeing broadcasting, namely Law Number 40 Year 1999 regarding the Press and Law Number 32 Year 2002 regarding Broadcasting, the Press Council stipulating “journalists’ code of ethics” and the Indonesian Broadcasting Commission stipulating “Broadcast program standards and broadcasting code of conduct”. The presentation of criminal news by showing the faces and identities of suspects or defendants constitutes a violation of the principles of presumption of innocence, namely someone must be deemed or treated not guilty until there is a court ruling stating that he or she is guilty. In addition, the broadcasting of criminal news affects suspects or defendants in obtaining due process of law, public prosecutors and judges who examine the case. Therefore, it is necessary that the broadcasting of criminal news not violating code of ethics or rules and the rights of suspect or defendant be endeavored.

Strategies to Automatically Derive A Process Model From A Configurable Process Model Based on Event Data
Authors: Arriagada-Benítez Mauricio , Sepúlveda Marcos , Munoz-Gama Jorge , Buijs Joos C. A. M.
Published: September 2017

Configurable process models are frequently used to represent business workflows and other discrete event systems among different branches of large organizations: they unify commonalities shared by all branches and describe their differences, at the same time. The configuration of such models is usually done manually, which is challenging. On the one hand, when the number of configurable nodes in the configurable process model grows, the size of the search space increases exponentially. On the other hand, the person performing the configuration may lack the holistic perspective to make the right choice for all configurable nodes at the same time, since choices influence each other. Nowadays, information systems that support the execution of business processes create event data reflecting how processes are performed. In this article, we propose three strategies (based on exhaustive search, genetic algorithms, and greedy heuristic) that use event data to automatically derive a process model from a configurable process model that better represents the characteristics of the process in a specific branch. These strategies have been implemented in our proposed framework, and tested in both business-like event logs as recorded in a higher educational ERP system, and a real case scenario involving a set of Dutch municipalities.
Chromosome pairing and recombination in male hybrids between two chromosome races of the common shrew (Sorex araneus L., Soricidae, Eulipotyphla)

Published: September 2017

The hybrid zone between chromosome races of the common shrew (Sorex araneus) provides an exceptional model to study the potential role of chromosome rearrangements in the initial steps of speciation. The Novosibirsk and Tomsk races differ by a series of Robertsonian fusions with monobrachial homology. They form a narrow hybrid zone and generate hybrids with both simple (chain of three chromosomes) and complex (chain of eight or nine) synaptic configurations. Using immunolocalisation of the meiotic proteins, we examined chromosome pairing and recombination in males from the hybrid zone. Homozygotes and simple heterozygotes for Robertsonian fusions showed a low frequency of synaptic aberrations (< 10%). The carriers of complex synaptic configurations showed multiple pairing abnormalities, which might lead to reduced fertility. Recombination frequency in the proximal regions of most chromosomes of all karyotypes was much lower than in the other regions. The strong suppression of recombination in the pericentromeric regions and co-segregation of race specific chromosomes involved in the long chains would be expected to lead to linkage disequilibrium between genes located there. Genic differentiation, together with the high frequency of pairing aberrations in male carriers of the long chains, might contribute to maintenance of the narrow hybrid zone.
Unifying description of the damping regimes of a stochastic particle in a periodic potential
Authors: Piscitelli Antonio , Pica Ciamarra Massimo
Published: September 2017

We analyze the classical problem of the stochastic dynamics of a
particle confined in a periodic potential, through the so called Il’in
and Khasminskii model, with a novel semi-analytical approach. Our
approach gives access to the transient and the asymptotic dynamics in
all damping regimes, which are difficult to investigate in the usual
Brownian model. We show that the crossover from the overdamped to the
underdamped regime is associated with the loss of a typical time scale
and of a typical length scale, as signaled by the divergence of the
probability distribution of a certain dynamical event. In the
underdamped regime, normal diffusion coexists with a non-Gaussian
displacement probability distribution for a long transient, as recently
observed in a variety of different systems. We rationalize the
microscopic physical processes leading to the non-Gaussian behavior, as
well as the timescale to recover the Gaussian statistics. The
theoretical results are supported by numerical calculations, and are
compared to those obtained for the Brownian model.
Bank capitalization and bank performance: a comparative analysis using accounting- and market-based measures
Authors: Köster André , Zimmermann Jochen
Published: September 2017

This paper examines performance outcomes of capitalization in the European bank market. Using a European sample with 2,504 firm-year observations for the years 1992–2012, the authors analyze the effect of capitalization as used by the financial regulators on bank risk and bank profitability with alternative accounting- and market-based measures. All accounting-based measures consistently show that higher capitalization reduces bank risk and is associated with increased profitability. Contrary to this, market-based risk measures show higher bank risk implying possibly different risk assessment by capital market participants. Our results are corroborated by an ex post analysis of bank performance in times of crisis. Higher capitalized banks have fared better after the crisis in respect of profitability and risk.

Busca-se neste trabalho produzir uma investigação inicial das práticas atuais e cotidianas do selfie que, em meio às mediações dos dispositivos digitais, inserem-se em uma cultura contemporânea de interação, compartilhamento e comunicação. Tal perspectiva é aqui relacionada com a antropologia filosófica desenvolvida por Bruno Latour (2012b) e com a teoria das esferas de Peter Sloterdijk (2011). Desenvolvemos uma investigação empírica das práticas atuais do selfie, a partir de entrevistas com pessoas que estão habituadas a utilizar o smartphone para fotografar. Se pensado enquanto prática, o selfie exibe sua complexidade, suas diversas experiências de facialidade em uma multiplicação e disseminação intensa de imagens.
Pagando para vencer: Cultura, Agência e Bens Virtuais em Video Games
Authors: Falcão Thiago , Marques Daniel
Published: September 2017

Este artigo centra seu argumento em um entendimento do processo de consumo, na cultura contemporânea, através da noção de pastiche de Fredric Jameson. O intuito é discutir de que forma dinâmicas de produção industrial de bens simbólicos foram responsáveis por produtos cujo intuito não jaz necessariamente em uma diferenciação identitária, mas em seguir uma estratégia de criação de réplicas de todo um contexto simbólico pré-estabelecido. A partir daí, buscamos discutir de que forma as redes sociotécnicas no jogo Hearthstone são o resultado desta condição cultural necessariamente contemporânea que enseja princípios de design que não apenas capacitam ações dentro do jogo, mas que agenciam complexos processos de aquisição e comércio de bens virtuais.
“Gosto de inovar, topo desafio”: cotidiano, identidade e inovações nas formas visuais do telejornal Bom Dia São Paulo
Authors: Silva Fernanda Mauricio
Published: September 2017

O presente artigo tem como objetivo refletir sobre as inovações propostas pelo telejornalismo local a partir da análise dos elementos audiovisuais do Bom Dia São Paulo. Tomamos como recorte dois aspectos que configuram a identidade do programa: o uso do ao vivo como recurso preferencial para a divulgação das informações, e os elementos visuais dispostos na cena de apresentação. Nos dois casos, percebe-se que o telejornal mostra-se inovador por buscar uma autêntica experiência da cidade, ao mesmo tempo em que mantém uma continuidade com formas do passado. A partir dos Estudos Culturais, considera-se a inovação numa relação com os contextos culturais que dão condições de existência para o novo e, ao mesmo tempo, permitem ver as transições sociais que o envolvem.
A fama da máquina televisiva: análise estilística do programa do SBT
Authors: Hergesel João Paulo , Ferraraz Rogério
Published: September 2017

O Máquina da Fama é um programa de auditório que consiste na competição entre covers e na transformação de artistas convidados em fenômenos do cenário musical. Fechando o ano de 2015 na vice-liderança em audiência e iniciando 2016 com constantes vitórias sobre Xuxa, o formato é responsável por momentos marcantes na história contemporânea do SBT. Levando isso em consideração, questionou-se como os recursos expressivos utilizados por essa narrativa sugerem atingir a sensibilidade do telespectador. Para tentar responder a essa indagação, analisou-se um trecho do programa em que a apresentadora Patrícia Abravanel estabelece diálogo com ela própria, como se fossem personalidades distintas, antes de executar a tarefa de imitar a cantora Beyoncé.
Electronic Banking Services in Nigeria: Some Determinants and Opportunities for Households’ Financial Inclusion
Authors: Oluwatayo Isaac B.
Published: September 2017

Economic transactions in many of the countries in Africa are still largely cash-based and many of these transactions are costly, inefficient, time consuming and sometimes risky because of the security situation in most countries in the continent. In fact, finality of payment is not always guaranteed because of potential counterfeits and the lack of financial discipline when cheques or other paper-based means of payment are used. The introduction of electronic banking services into the Nigerian banking sector has brought some respite considering the number of people now using electronic platforms such as the Automated Teller Machines (ATM), mobile phones, internet and bank websites instead of the conventional over the counter method used by most people. The result presented in here is based on secondary data consisting of 6002 respondents collected by The Financial Inclusion Insights Program, InterMedia. A descriptive analysis of data showed that the North-central (35%) and South-west (33%) geopolitical zones of the country had the highest as over one-third of the residents harnessed internet as the platform for their banking services. Meanwhile on the determinants of using electronic banking services, the result of the tobit model employed revealed age, gender, education status, and ownership of mobile phones as positive enablers and poverty status, distance to banking services and marital status as hiccups to using electronic banking services. The study therefore recommends welfare enhancement through provision of infrastructural facilities to ease access banking services, Also capacity building of respondents through education should be intensified since most of the people using these electronic platforms are those with a minimum of secondary education.

Published: September 2017

While there has been a plethora of studies that addresses migration in Africa, many have yet to successfully unpack the effects of brain drain on the South African health sector. Using textual analysis of the available literature relevant to the topic under consideration; this work seeks to identify the major structural and socio-economic push factors that drive the migration of health professionals in South Africa, relying on Revestain’s laws of migration and Lee’s push/pull theory of migration. The study also looks at explaining other factors that contribute to the migration of health professionals in South Africa. We argue that for South Africa to retain health professionals, the government needs to increase the training of health workers, improve their working conditions and security, upgrade infrastructure and ensure availability of resources as well as develop a more open immigration policy prioritizing skilled immigration.
Trade Liberalization, Consumption, and Real Exchange Rate in Seven ASEAN+6 Countries
Authors: Setiawan Sigit
Published: September 2017

Trade liberalization has been mushrooming in the globalization era. The trade liberalization policy adoption by one country will be followed shortly by another. Although trade liberalization policy is strongly advocated by international organizations, a few prominent economists argue there is no ‘one fits for all’ policy. Thus, the policy effect altogether with other relevant aspects still needs to be explored in case by case basis, including ASEAN+6 regions. This paper is intended to analyze the relationship of trade liberalization and consumption on the real exchange rate in seven ASEAN+6 countries – the most dynamic region during period 2000 – 2011, a period covering subprime mortgage crisis. With data panel approach, the paper investigates the relationship of trade liberalization and consumption on real exchange rate while taking into account level of country’s income and crisis effect. The resulted model finds significant relationship in the overall and individual effect of tariff and terms of trade change as proxies of trade liberalization, consumption, level of country’s income, and subprime mortgage crisis on real exchange rate.
Efficiency of Foreign Exchange Markets in Sub-Saharan Africa in the Presence of Structural Break: A Linear and Non-Linear Testing Approach
Authors: Olufemi Adeyeye Patrick , Adewale Aluko Olufemi , Oseko Migiro Stephen
Published: September 2017

This study examines the efficiency of foreign exchange (forex) market of 10 selected countries in sub-Saharan Africa in the presence of structural break. It uses data on the average official exchange rate of currencies of the selected countries to the US dollar from November 1995 to October 2015. This study employs Perron unit root test with structural break to endogenously determine the break period in the forex markets. It also employs the Kim wild bootstrap variance ratio test and BDS independence test to detect linear and nonlinear dependence in forex market returns respectively. In the full sample period, the Kim wild bootstrap joint variance ratio test shows that only two forex markets are efficient while the BDS independence test reports that all the forex markets are not efficient. The subsample period analysis indicates that the efficiency of the majority of the forex markets is sensitive to structural break, thus providing evidence in support of the adaptive market hypothesis. This study suggests that ignoring structural break and nonlinearity of returns may lead to misleading results when testing for market efficiency.

This study assessed the tourism entrepreneurial intention of South African youth, and the mental attitude of those who have this intention. It used questionnaire survey to gather data from 207 youth resident in Mtubatuba Local Municipality, KwaZulu-Natal Province of South Africa, to address the study objectives. Data analyses reveal that a significant percentage of the youth have tourism entrepreneurial intention. Those who perceive themselves as entrepreneurial individuals and willing to start tourism businesses in the future exhibit some distinct mindset. This mental attitude depicts these individuals to be innovative, transformational, risk takers, persistence, strong-minded, visionary, optimistic, and goal-getters. The South African Government, through its Department of Labour, need to optimize its strategic and operational plans to support these entrepreneurial youth in acquiring business education and entrepreneurial skills, to empower them realise their dreams of starting and managing their own businesses. This will help curb the high rate of unemployment in South Africa, especially among the youth.
