Stéréotypes liés à l’insertion professionnelle des femmes ingénieures dans les métiers de l’ingénierie en Côte d’Ivoire et stratégies anthropiques : entre capacitation et capital social
Authors: Koffi Amon Anick Joceline , Sanogo Pornan Mourlaye
Published: February 2025

Cet article visait à comprendre les mécanismes par lesquels les ingénieures ivoiriennes ont recours pour s’insérer dans le tissu économique en dépit des stéréotypes socioculturels que sont le double statut de femme au foyer et de mère et la nature de sexe faible. Pour son élaboration, l’adoption d’une méthodologie a été utile. De sa posture de recherche qualitative, la constitution de l’échantillon de vingt-trois (23) entretiens a été possible grâce à la technique d’échantillonnage de boule à neige. Deux résultats majeurs ont émergé pour présenter les stratégies mobilisées face aux stéréotypes. Ainsi, le capital social a été la première ressource et le moyen pour intégrer le tissu professionnel de l’emploi en Côte d’Ivoire. Elles investissent les cercles sociaux en tirant profit des informations et opportunités offertes. La capacitation en tant que stratégie secondaire, a permis aux femmes ingénieurs de se réinventer en transformant les obstacles en opportunités. In fine, le présent article dévoile les ressorts invisibles des limitations de la femme dans la construction de la carrière féminine quand celle-ci exprime son aspiration de promotion professionnelle.
This article aimed to understand the mechanisms by which Ivorian engineers use to insert themselves into the economic fabric despite sociocultural stereotypes such as the dual status of housewife and mother and the nature of the weaker sex. For its development, the adoption of a methodology was useful. From its qualitative research position, the constitution of the sample of twenty-three (23) interviews was possible thanks to the snow globe sampling technique. Two major results emerged to present the strategies used in the face of stereotypes. Thus, social capital was the first resource and the means to integrate the professional fabric of employment in Côte d’Ivoire. They invest in social circles by taking advantage of the information and opportunities offered. Empowerment as a secondary strategy has allowed women engineers to reinvent themselves by transforming obstacles into opportunities. Ultimately, this article reveals the invisible sources of women's limitations in the construction of women's careers when they express their aspirations for professional advancement.
L’Enseignement Bilingue de l’éveil scientifique au cycle primaire en contexte éducatif marocain: Analyse de contenu des Textes Officiels
Authors: Elmadhi Adil , Boukhch Mohamed
Published: February 2025

Cet article porte sur l’analyse des Textes Officiels marocains en matière de l’enseignement bilingue de l’éveil scientifique. L’objectif de cet article est d’analyser les orientations des textes officiels marocains concernant l’enseignement bilingue de l’éveil scientifique au cycle primaire. Cette analyse vise à identifier les directives et mesures relatives aux langues d’enseignement, tout en relevant les éventuels dysfonctionnements pour proposer des pistes d’amélioration. Pour répondre à notre problématique, une méthodologie en deux étapes a été adoptée. D’abord, un bref survol de la littérature existante sur l’enseignement bilingue a permis de contextualiser la question. Ensuite, une analyse de contenu a été menée à partir de grilles spécifiques, afin d’examiner les textes officiels marocains traitant de l’éveil scientifique et de ses liens avec les langues d’enseignement. Les résultats de cette étude révèlent une hétérogénéité dans les orientations des textes officiels. Certains reconnaissent l’enseignement bilingue comme un levier fondamental pour transformer le système éducatif, tandis que d’autres ne lui accordent pas la même priorité. En conclusion, cette disparité met en lumière une tension entre les différentes approches présentes dans les textes officiels. Une harmonisation des priorités semble nécessaire pour garantir une mise en œuvre cohérente et efficace de l’enseignement bilingue de l’éveil scientifique au cycle primaire.
This article examines Moroccan official texts regarding bilingual education in scientific awakening activities. Its aim is to analyse the orientations of these texts concerning bilingual education at the primary school level, focusing on directives and measures related to languages of instruction, while identifying potential shortcomings to propose avenues for improvement. To address this issue, a two-step methodology was adopted. First, a brief review of existing literature on bilingual education provided a contextual foundation. Next, content analysis was conducted using tailored grids to examine Moroccan official texts addressing scientific awakening activities and its connection to languages of instruction. The study’s findings reveal heterogeneity in the orientations of official texts. While some emphasize bilingual education as a key driver for transforming the educational system, others assign it lower priority. In conclusion, this disparity highlights a tension between the various approaches present in official texts. Harmonizing priorities is necessary to ensure the coherent and effective implementation of bilingual education in scientific awakening activities at the primary school level.
Exploring American Cultural Themes in Language Learning: A Qualitative Analysis of 'Focus 4' EFL Textbook
Authors: Amiti Flora
Published: February 2025

Learning a foreign language requires both time and dedication. Hence, achieving proficiency in the four language skills definitely necessitates the integration of culturally relevant materials that can enrich the learning process, particularly in developing speaking skills. This study examines an upper-intermediate English as a foreign language textbook utilized at the Medical High School “Gostivari” in Gostivar. While the textbook serves as a crucial teaching resource, its content also significantly shapes the students' learning experiences by addressing topics that contribute to both their academic and personal growth, preparing them for future success. The textbook’s analysis mainly concerns activities related to cultural themes, particularly those related to American culture, thus highlighting the importance of examining how these activities facilitate the development of speaking skills. A qualitative research approach was adopted to analyze the textbook's content and evaluate its cultural relevance. The study reveals that the textbook incorporates a diverse array of culture-related activities, aimed at enhancing students' speaking abilities. These activities not only promote cultural understanding but also provide opportunities for students to practice and refine their spoken language skills in meaningful contexts. The incorporated cultural content can boost student engagement since it introduces relevant and thought-provoking scenarios that encourage active participation in speaking activities.

Authors: Ngahane Emilienne Laure , Maapou Meguedong Kelly , Tchiofo Lontsi Rodine
Published: February 2025

This study was carried out at Dino & Fils SA, a wood processing unit in Soa-Cameroon. The aim was to recover energy from wood waste in order to contribute to greater energy flexibility in wood processing units. Specifically, the aim was to assess the quantity of wood waste available on the site and estimate its energy potential, to design and test a system for producing electrical energy from these waste and to estimate the contribution of this thermoelectric system to meeting the company's energy needs and the associated costs. Wood waste were characterized by taking measurements at each station on the production line, supplemented by monthly production reports and scientific data. For the month of March 2024, the plant produced 3 284 m³ of wood waste, or 64% of the gross wood volume. This is equivalent to 2 766 tons for an electrical energy potential of 571 MWh; the company's monthly electricity consumption is estimated at 121 MWh. The experimental thermoelectric system set up, using the TEC1-12715 Peltier module, produced electricity with a total power of 841 W and a Seebeck coefficient of 0.04 V°C⁻¹ by burning 5 kg of sawdust for 85 minutes. On a real scale and under optimum conditions, this system would be an effective and viable solution for covering not only all the energy needs of Dino & Fils SA but also those of surrounding households and offices at a competitive cost of 48 FCFA/kWh.

Published: February 2025

Le présent travail a pour objectif de caractériser la diversité floristique et la structure de la forêt communautaire d’Aliyamounou, une des importantes du bassin du haut Niger en Guinée. Des relevés phytosociologiques et dendrometriques ont été effectués au sein de 32 placettes de 400m2 (20 m x 20 m) chacune. Ces placettes ont été disposées le long des transects, partant du sommet au bas-versant du plateau qui abrite la forêt. L’analyse des données floristiques a permis de distinguer 4 groupements végétaux et recenser 146 espèces végétales, réparties en 49 familles. Les Fabaceae (17,01%), les Rubiaceae (11,56%) et les Poaceae (7,53%) sont les familles dominantes. La végétation est bien diversifiée et selon les différents groupements identifiés, l’indice de diversité (H) varie entre 2,91 et 3,73 bits avec une Equitabilité (E) allant de 0,68 et 0,83. La densité de la forêt est 828,12 ± 409 tiges/ha, avec un diamètre moyen 20 ± 9 cm et une hauteur moyenne de 12,2 ± 6 m. Pour l’ensemble de la forêt les types biologiques dominants sont les Phanérophytes (70,8%) suivis des Thérophytes (14,3%) et des Géophytes (8,2%). Les conditions écologiques liées au gradient morphopédologique interviennent largement dans la distribution spatiale des groupements végétaux.
The present work aims to characterize the floristic diversity and structure of the Aliyamounou community forest, one of the important ones in the Upper Niger basin in Guinea. Phytosociological and dendrometric surveys were carried out in 32 plots of 400m2 (20 m x 20 m) each. These plots were arranged along transects, starting from the summit to the lower slope of the plateau that shelters the forest. The analysis of the floristic data made it possible to distinguish 4 plant groups and to identify 146 plant species, divided into 49 families. Fabaceae (17.01%), Rubiaceae (11.56%), and Poaceae (7.53%) are the dominant families. The vegetation is well diversified and according to the different groups identified, the diversity index (H) varies between 2.91 and 3.73 bits with an Equitability (E) ranging from 0.68 to 0.83. The density of the forest is 828.12 ± 409 stems/ha, with an average diameter of 20 ± 9 cm and an average height of 12.2 ± 6 m. For the entire forest, the dominant biological types are Phanerophytes (70.8%) followed by Therophytes (14.3%) and Geophytes (8.2%). The ecological conditions linked to the morphopedological gradient largely intervene in the spatial distribution of plant groups.

Creative Economy and Cultural Heritage Governance
Authors: Purnomo Septian Rahmat , Rosa Dien Vidia , Prasetyo Hery
Published: February 2025

This study investigates the social consequences of issuing a letter from the East Java National and Political Unity Agency (BAKESBANGPOL) Number 300/5984/209.5/2023, which ostensibly aims to manage conflicts between martial arts schools. However, it has inadvertently undermined the creative economy development program. The BAKESBANGPOL letter was a provincial government intervention to an oversimplified approach to conflict resolution by demolishing martial arts school monuments. The research uses Ethnographic methods and Foucault's perspective, which emphasizes the text's intertextuality and the diversity of social contexts. This research finds that government policy represents a failure of the power system to recognize the cultural practices of civil society. It is because the exerted power cannot fully control the subject of power or the counter-power articulated by martial arts schools. In contrast, the Madiun City Government optimizes the creative economy's potential by promoting the city as a martial art. The frequent construction of martial arts statues contradicts the demolition of martial arts monuments, highlighting the tension between disciplining and fostering the cultural economy. This contradiction raises essential issues regarding the limits of government power to construct a surveillance system and the presence of civil society subjectivity. As a result, social spaces become fields where tactics developed to negotiate the domination of the local and provincial government power. Thus, this research argues that the representation system of civil society within governance does not fully guarantee equality, consensus, or continuity. The letter highlights dynamic power relations structured through spatial politics, characterized by the inseparability between the state apparatus and elements of civil society. Hence, the government must articulate an inclusive strategy that recognizes cultural practices and allows creative economy programs to evolve.
New insights into the diffusion of I4.0 in the Brazilian Steel Industry
Authors: Paula Germano Mendes de , Martins Mozart Santos , Botelho Marisa dos Reis Azevedo
Published: February 2025

This article seeks to enrich the literature on innovation and the transformation of productive structures by exploring Industry 4.0 technologies and their applications and implications for the Brazilian steel industry. Through a comparative analysis of surveys conducted with the same companies in 2018 and 2021, the study tracks the evolution of I4.0 technology diffusion within Brazilian steel firms. The findings reveal that while the rate of diffusion of technological clusters in this sector has been relatively slow and has had limited impacts on the steel innovation system, the financial outcomes have been notably positive. Consequently, these innovations serve as effective tools for enhancing the existing productive structure in terms of availability and financial returns rather than revolutionizing it.

Crypto-currency in Russian trade with the Central Asia Countries
Authors: Polivach A.
Published: February 2025

This article analyses potential of crypto-currency usage in cross-border transactions with the Central Asia (CA) countries. Based on the statistics from the region the author came to the following conclusions. Nowadays, penetration of crypto-currencies in the local societies is low and it is substantially lower than in Russia. Relation to crypto-currencies is different in various countries of the CA, but everywhere they are prohibited for use as a means of payment. Additionally due to specifics of legislations of the CA countries, usage of crypto-currencies for cross-border transactions creates extra burden for local business because there are problems with legal conversion of received crypto-currencies into local ones. All these determine low propensity of the CA business to use crypto-currencies. While last two years mutual trade between Russia and the CA countries are mainly transacted in Roubles and this substantially decreases the need to recourse to such exotic instruments as crypto-currencies. Thus at the moment we see low potential of crypto-currency usage in transactions for trade between Russia and the CA countries. However, this may change in case the status of crypto-currencies in the latter countries substantially changes.
The Ukrainian Crisis: New Stage of Escalation
Authors: Solovyev E.
Published: February 2025

The conflict in Ukraine, through the efforts of Western countries that have made political, financial and other way investments in it, has acquired the characteristics of a constituent one, so called “game changer” and has a significant impact on modern international relations and the characteristics of the emerging world order. In 2024, there was a significant technological escalation and geographical expansion of the conflict. Among the key topics discussed by experts was even the possibility of using nuclear weapons. The issues of confiscation of frozen Russian foreign exchange reserves and other assets were discussed in global financial circles. The article emphasizes that the conflict is in an active phase. The parties' assessments of the situation and their interests (Ukraine, Western countries, on the one hand, and Russia, on the other) radically differ. The conflict of interests is deepening. The positions of the “war party” and the pro-Ukrainian lobby are strong in the USA and in Europe. In these circumstances, it is difficult to imagine the success of the conflict settlement within the framework of the negotiation process in 2025, despite the change of the presidential administration in the United States. The outcome of the conflict will determine the role and place of the Russian Federation in the new emerging world order, the degree of Russia's influence not only in different subregions of post-Soviet Eurasia, but also in the countries of the “global South”.
On the weak point of the stronger uncertainty relation
Authors: Urbanowski Krzysztof
Published: February 2025

We analyze the uncertainty relation for the sum of variances, which is called, in some papers, the stronger uncertainty relation for all incompatible observables. We show that this uncertainty relation for the sum of variances of the observables A and B calculated for the eigenstate of one of these observables (say of B), contrary to the suggestions presented in some papers, leads to the same results as the Heisenberg–Robertson uncertainty relation; that is, it does not give any bounds on the variance of A.

Strong dipole-promoted N-O bond hydrogenolysis enables ampere-level electrosynthesis of methylamine
Authors: Zhang Bin , Li Rui , Yang Rong , Li Qian , Qin Mengmei , He Meng , Liu Cuibo
Published: February 2025

The electrochemical hydrogenolysis of nitromethane (CH3NO2) in water provides a sustainable route for accessing methylamine (CH3NH2), one of the simplest alkyl amines but the most commonly used bulk chemical. However, ineffective activation of the unactivated N−O σ-bond of the N-methylhydroxylamine (CH3NHOH) intermediate results in a CH3NH2 selectivity below 10%. Here, low-coordinated copper (LC-Cu) is designed to enable the conversion of electrochemical CH3NO2-to-CH3NH2 with 99% selectivity and 97% Faradaic efficiency at a low potential. A strong dipole moment to CH3NHOH over LC-Cu induces strong adsorption and an obvious Raman shift of the N‒O σ-bond in CH3NHOH to the LC-Cu surface at lower potentials, thus promoting N‒O hydrogenolysis. The rate-determining step changes as the pH alters, resulting in a pH-relevant volcano trend of CH3NO2-to-CH3NH2. The ampere-level production of 1.5 mol of CH3NH2, easy purification, gram-scale synthesis of deuterated methylamine and drugs, and hydrogenolysis of other N‒O bonds demonstrate promising potential.
SMNK-1 and VHA-18 are essential for FB-MO complex assembly and transport during spermatogenesis in C. elegans

Published: February 2025

The spatiotemporal control of asymmetric positioning of cellular cargoes such as macromolecules and organelles during spermatogenesis is essential to produce functional sperm in most animal species. Yet, the regulatory mechanisms that govern cargo sorting and transport remain largely unknown. Here we show that the casein-like kinase SMNK-1 localized on the surface of membranous organelle (MO) is required to recruit IDR-containing SPE-18 and facilitate the assembly of Major Sperm Protein (MSP) condensate, named Fibrous Body (FB) in spermatocyte during spermatogenesis in C. elegans. Meanwhile, the MO-localized VHA-18, the H subunit of the v-ATPase, is required for pumping the cytoplasmic protons into MOs, generating an alkaline cytoplasmic microenvironment adjacent to MOs, favorable for packaging MSP filaments into fibrous body (FB) and thus guaranteeing the correct cargo sorting during spermatogenesis. Thus, the interplay between membraneless condensate FBs mediated by SMNK-1 and membrane-bound organelle MOs regulated by VHA-18 provides a novel yet uncovered mechanism for cargo sorting and vectorial transport during spermatogenesis in C. elegans.
Variation in green roof vegetation health driven by age and design

Published: February 2025

Green roofs have been increasingly implemented in cities globally to enhance urban ecosystem services degraded by climate change and rapid urbanization. However, temporal trends in green roof vegetation health and the effects of design considerations at a large scale remain unclear. Here, we used 8-cm very-high-resolution multispectral remote sensing imagery to quantify the temporal changes of vegetation health and associated design drivers across 1,380 individual green roof modules in Toronto from 2011 to 2018. Results show an average increase in vegetation health and a decline in vegetation patchiness as green roofs age. We identify module area, building height, and vegetation type as primary design factors influencing green roof vegetation health, with module area positively and building height inversely affecting vegetation health. In terms of vegetation type, sedum mats are generally healthier than woody plants and grasses on green roofs. Additionally, we identify specific thresholds, module sizes with linear dimensions of 3.2–4.8 m and building heights of 14.4 m, for which smaller and higher green roof performance abruptly declines. These findings present a robust, cost-effective analytical framework for long-term assessment and modeling of urban green infrastructure at large scales, providing valuable insights into urban greening practices.
Navigating psychotherapy in the COVID-19 Era: overcoming challenges, harnessing benefits, and practical recommendations
Authors: Silva Vânia , Koppensteiner Laura , Ribeiro Eugénia
Published: February 2025

Objectives: As the world struggled with the COVID-19 pandemic, adopting preventive measures, such as wearing face masks and videoconferencing, became ubiquitous in various settings, including psychotherapy. Identifying challenges, benefits, and recommendations may support the effective delivery of psychotherapeutic care in similar conditions in the future. Recent literature has highlighted mostly therapists’ perspectives on those challenges, benefits, and recommendations. Since therapists and clients seem to differ on what they experience and value in therapy, understanding psychotherapeutic care from clients’ perspectives should also be considered. Thus, the present study aimed to understand therapists’ and clients’ perspectives on challenges, benefits, and recommendations for videoconference therapy and therapy using face masks and if there are differences regarding those perspectives.
Methods: We analyzed 738 responses to the open-ended questions of a larger online survey on the quality of relational processes in psychotherapy during the COVID-19 pandemic. The participants’ responses were collected worldwide between December 2022 and July 2023. A total of 117 therapists and 64 clients participated in the study. We conducted a deductive content analysis to examine trends in participants’ answers and Fisher-Freeman-Halton tests to determine differences between therapists and clients across categories.
Results: The findings highlighted that while clients tended to focus on normalizing and trusting the new therapeutic environments, therapists were concerned with improving communication and refining their therapeutic skills to maintain the effectiveness of therapy under the new conditions.
Conclusions: This understanding enabled the formulation of targeted recommendations that address the unique needs of each group to enhance their therapeutic experiences.

Advances in geothermal technology and the global capacity for geothermal power and heat are growing, yet its role in the transition to sustainable energy systems remains notably underexplored. In this review, we find that many existing energy system models rely on simplified techniques that fail to adequately address the complexities of exploration uncertainties and nonlinear drilling costs. We synthesize key data sources and identify good modeling practices for geothermal plants, examining fixed versus variable drilling depths, as well as detailed cost functions. Important factors such as lifecycle environmental and social impacts are often overlooked. In addition, innovations such as raw material extraction, the flexibility of geothermal plants in load-following operation, and the potential for technological learning through policy support are identified as key game changers that could enhance the role of geothermal energy in future systems.
Noise Measurement in Second Harmonic Generation with Quasi – Phase - Matching Device for Electric Poling Quality Evaluation
Authors: Dwivedi Prashant Povel , Mishra Ajay , Dixit Nimish
Published: February 2025

The fabrication of quasi phase matching (QPM) device contains error in domain width. In the fabrication of QPM devices, one of the main contributors to this error in domain width is the electric poling process. This domain width error affects both the effectiveness of non – phase - matched parasitic processes and the effectiveness of frequency conversion, which frequently affects the performance of the QPM devices. In this paper, we proposed another methods to evaluate the electric poling quality of QPM through second harmonic generation (SHG) - noise intensity distribution, which is basically noise given the understanding of the error in the domain width in QPM. For measuring the error in domain width of a QPM device and offering a practical approach for evaluating the quality of the electric poling of a QPM device as good or poor.
Fertility Sparing Surgery Upon Reproductive and Oncologic results in Ovarian Cancer patients Stage I (FIGO): A Systematic Review
Authors: Chatziioannou Stylianos Sergios , Sofoudis Chrisostomos
Published: February 2025

Purpose
This systematic review evaluates the oncologic and reproductive outcomes of fertility-sparing surgery (FSS) in women diagnosed with stage I ovarian cancer, as classified by the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO). The goal is to assess the safety and effectiveness of FSS in preserving fertility without compromising survival outcomes.
Methods
A systematic search was conducted in MEDLINE (PubMed), SCOPUS, and Google Scholar for studies published in English from 2014 onward. Studies involving women under 50 with stage I ovarian cancer who opted for FSS were included. Data extraction focused on oncologic outcomes (recurrence and survival rates) and reproductive outcomes (pregnancy and live birth rates). Study selection followed PRISMA guidelines.
Results
Seventeen studies comprising 1030 patients met the inclusion criteria. Pregnancy success rates ranged from 25–91.3%, with live birth rates exceeding 80% in most studies. Spontaneous conception was predominant, though 3.7–28% of patients required assisted reproductive technologies (ART). Despite 58% of patients expressing a desire for future pregnancy, only 13% actively attempted conception. Recurrence rates varied from 3–33.3%, with most studies reporting between 8% and 15%. Overall survival ranged from 88–100%, and disease-free survival remained above 90%. The highest recurrence was observed in mucinous ovarian carcinoma and FIGO Stage IC2/IC3 subtypes.
Conclusion
FSS in stage I ovarian cancer is a viable alternative to radical surgery in carefully selected patients, with favorable oncologic and reproductive outcomes. However, recurrence risks and fertility challenges highlight the need for multidisciplinary counseling, long-term surveillance, and further research to refine selection criteria and optimize fertility preservation techniques.
Održivost Kantove koncepcije sensus communis u okviru suvremene teorije umjetnosti
Authors: Loinjak Igor
Published: February 2025

Kantova je estetika snažno utjecala na suvremenu teoriju umjetnosti. Njegovo učenje o sudu ukusa kao subjektivnom, a ne objektivnom iskazu prekinulo je dugu tradiciju normativno uspostavljenih estetičkih sustava i otvorilo unutar polja umjetnosti široko diskurzivno područje u kojemu su potreba za redefiniranjem pojma umjetnosti i umjetničkog djela postali goruća pitanja suvremenih estetičkih promišljanja. Cilj je ovoga članka pokušati dokučiti je li sensus communis, koji Kant pretpostavlja u procesu iznošenja estetičkoga suda, moguće opravdati u okviru različitih teorija umjetnosti iz prošloga i ovoga stoljeća. Nadalje, u provedenoj će se analizi Kantovo poimanje estetike supostaviti uz tradiciju koju su uspostavili mislioci analitičke filozofske linije u kojoj je performativnost subjektivnoga estetskog suda dovela u pitanje opstojnost koncepcije sensus communis, stavljajući time gotovo neograničeno pravo na istinitost subjektova terminološkog određenja osnovnih pojmova estetike.
Dva pogleda na pravo otpora
Authors: Dokić Marko , Bakrač Vladimir , Mihajlović Andreja
Published: February 2025

U članku se analizira odnos između vladara i naroda u filozofiji prava Immanuela Kanta i monarhomaškom djelu Vindiciae contra tyrannos i razmatra se pitanje: može li se narod suprotstaviti tiraninu i svrgnuti ga? U prvome dijelu članka analizira se Kantova filozofija prava i njegovo osporavanje prava na otpor naroda, budući da je smatrao da vladar prema podaniku ima samo prava, a ne i obveze. Kant je državu promatrao kao središte slobode jer pomoću prava osigurava supostojanje individualnih sloboda. Zato on isključuje pravo otpora, a napad na državnu vlast poistovjećuje s napadom na slobodu. U drugome dijelu članka razmatra se koncepcija otpora naroda iz djela Vindiciae contra tyrannos, koja se temelji na postojanju dviju vrsta ugovora – ugovora vladara i naroda s Bogom i ugovora o vladi ili podčinjavanju između vladara i naroda. Učenje iz Vindiciae contra tyrannos koje otpor naroda tiraniji shvaća ne kao pravo, već kao obvezu, pokušava se sagledati na primjeru najznačajnijih shvaćanja subjektivnog prava i pravnih obveza. U zaključku članka daje se usporedba dvaju navedenih shvaćanja o pravu na otpor.

Purpose: to explore the strategic behaviour of museums and compare the effects of two strategies to test how custodial and market orientations drive technological innovations and economic performance under the influence of perceived environmental uncertainty.

Methodology: the paper is based on data from a survey of museum directors (n =197) using partial least squares structural equation modelling.

Findings: the study shows that the museum’s custodial strategy does not have a statistically significant effect on museum economic performance and technological innovations. Market orientation positively influences technological innovations and museum economic performance. The level of perceived uncertainty of the external environment does not influence the relationship between museum custodial orientation and technological innovations. Contrarily, perceived environmental uncertainty moderates the relationship between market orientation and technological innovations.

Originality and contribution: the study contributes to existing knowledge about strategic orientations by contrasting the effects of custodial and market orientations. The paper also assesses the impact of these orientations on museum economic performance. Unlike most existing studies, our paper adds to a growing body of literature by focusing on the influence of the external environment on the strategic behaviour of museums.

Purpose: to determine the algorithm for the applied and practical work of psychologists in personnel management within the framework of psychological support for consolidation of social capital in the process of organizational development.

Methodology: theoretical analysis of the phenomenon of consolidation of organizational social capital; determination of the structure and level of formation of social capital; development of a definition of consolidation as a special group socio-psychological process that ensures that group members agree on goals, norms, means, style, and methods of joint activity, which has its own level and dynamics of development.

Findings: a logical system of stages for managing psychological support for the consolidation of social capital has been developed. The system consists of six stages. Each stage of support builds on the previous one, deepening and expanding the possibilities of managerial influence on personnel and, thereby, increasing the professional requirements of personnel training and development services employees. Some of the currently available diagnostic methods for assessing the social capital of an organization are presented, including the author’s methodology for assessing its main components, which makes it possible to combine indicators of social capital in the “consolidation index”. The result of the study is a description of the specifics of group methods of training staff in the processes of consolidating social capital: discussions, focus groups, business games, and trainings that develop social networks and human resources of the organization.

Originality and contribution: the research contributes to the systematization of socio-psychological intervention methods in managing the consolidation of organizations’ social capital. Unlike existing works, the article presents the path of a logical and step-by-step socio-psychological process of personnel development associated with purposeful steps of managerial influences aimed at forming a high level of social capital and employee commitment to goals, values, and organizational norms. The consolidation of social capital determines the strategic management of an organization and its reputation.
