A tulajdon elmélete az antik és az újkori politikafilozófia néhány képviselőjénél
Authors: Egresi Katalin
Published: May 2023

A társadalmi együttélés során a tulajdoni viszonyok megítélése és a javak, illetve kötelezettségek elosztásának igazságossága a politikafilozófia egyik legállandóbb dilemmái közé tartoznak. Az utópiák – amelyek leginkább a magántulajdont és a társadalmi egyenlőtlenségeket bírálták – az egyes korszakokban arra világítottak rá, hogy a fennálló társadalmi és politikai rend működése milyen mértékben és miért igazságtalan. Ezzel a radikális és kritikai beállítódással szemben mind az ókori görög racionális filozófiában, mind az újkor hajnalán születtek olyan elméletek, amelyek néhány vonatkozásban a mai társadalmi berendezkedések erkölcsi és jogi alapértékeiben megtalálhatók.
Student perspectives on the normalisation of sexual assault within Huddersfield
Authors: St. Barbe Katie Margaret
Published: May 2023

Statistics show the increasing threat Sexual Assault (hereafter referred to as SA) poses within contemporary society. The student population is disproportionately affected by SA, yet there is limited research on students’ attitudes surrounding the topic within the UK. This study aims to address gaps in current research on SA, by using qualitative methods to understand student attitudes towards the normalisation of SA within two different geographical settings. Focus groups were conducted with a total of 15 participants, with themes emerging around ‘excuses’, ‘risk’ and ‘acceptance’. All three themes were found to contribute to the normalisation of SA, with feminist perspectives, crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED) and alcohol influencing the themes, and supporting the findings generated from the literature review. SA was found to be overall normalised within the student population, more so in a nightclub setting (hereafter referred to as a club) than an outdoor university setting (University Plaza). The research both generated ideas towards why SA has become more normalised and what can be done to combat the normalisation of SA. However, more research needs to be conducted into student attitudes towards SA across the UK to make the results more generalisable to the student population, identifying at-risk settings and negative attitudes towards SA. The research is integral not only to shaping future interventions but also to identifying current interventions that are failing or why certain interventions are not already in place which is extremely problematic. It aims to tackle SA successfully, improving the safety of students and the general public.

Agribusiness and Supply Chain Development Policies in Nepal: A Review from Temporal Dynamics
Authors: Mishra Rajendra Prasad , Paudel Indra Hari
Published: May 2023

A critical review of agriculture policies during different plan periods, aligned with political changes, has been conducted out to understand the shift in priorities, technology transfer ,support products, and private sector engagement. Firstly, in the 1950s, the policies were influenced by the first five-year plan and focused on the import and dissemination of technology. During the three decades of the Panchayat era, there was an emphasis on state mechanisms for technology transfer, agribusiness, and research, with limited incentives for the private sector. After 1990, agricultural policy products followed a path of liberalization and focused on defining the state’s role and promoting pluralism. This period witnessed the establishment of a wide range of private and cooperative-led agribusinesses, although their growth was hindered by political conflict. Subsequently, policies began to incorporate priorities such as nutrition security, comparative advantage, competitiveness, climate change adaptation, agrobiodiversity conservation, and sustainability. However, with the federalization of the state and establishment of a three-tier governance system in 2015, agriculture policies, priorities and strategies a became fragmented, diversified, and localized, and lack harmonization. This review demonstrates that agriculture policies were largely influenced by domestic political developments and structural changes at the international level. Nonetheless, a consistent focus on increasing production and productivity, as well as achieving food security and self-sufficiency, can be observed.. Throughout all policy periods, supply chain development, a crucial component of agribusiness, received limited prioritization, which remains a major impediment to agricultural transformation. Despite seven decades of policy evolution, Nepal has been unable to create an enabling policy environment to attract significant private and cooperative sector investments that could drive substantial growth in agribusiness. This situation calls for further research in the field of policy formulation capacity among the three tiers of government to foster agribusiness and promote supply chain development for agricultural transformation.

Thus, this technology can be used in the health sector to exchange patient medical records and health-related information. However, there are fears of the leakage of confidential patient data. This research studied two main contexts, the technological and organizational contexts, to find out the concerns about the use of cloud computing technology in the health sector. The results indicated the desire of hospitals to use cloud computing because of its enormous benefits in the health sector, with concern about data security with cloud computing. For this reason, this paper is proposed. In addition, a model  for protecting and storing the patient's medical record using two technologies: cloud computing and blockchain. The model guarantees confidentiality, high protection, and privacy of patient information, and provides all beneficiaries of cloud computing with all the needed information when wanted.
Emergency Cesarean Hysterectomy Among Women attending to Obstetric Unit in Al-Thowrah Hospital, Sana,a City, Yemen
Authors: Al-Rabeei Nabil Ahmed
Published: May 2023

Background: Peripartum hysterectomy is a major operation and is invariably performed in the presence of life threatening hemorrhage during or immediately after abdominal or vaginal deliveries. Aim: To determine the incidence and indication of cesarean hysterectomy, among women attending to the obstetric unit in Al-Thowrah modern general hospital, Sana, a City, Yemen.  Methods: A total of 60 women cesarean underwent hysterectomy were enrolled in the study. Data were collected from labor registers, theater records, patient cases notes, ward registers and intensive care unit records. Results: During the period of study there were 60 cesarean hysterectomy and 54500 deliveries, representing an incidence rate of 1.1 cases per 1000. Vaginal delivery was the most common mode of delivery (83.3%) followed by a cesarean section (16.7%), and cesarean hysterectomy (0.11%). Most of the women with cesarean hysterectomy were in the age group of 30-39 years (56.7%), 23.3% of women were older than 40 years,  and the least were at age group less than 30 years (20%).  The majority of women were grand multipara (80%) while 16.7% were multipara and only two women (3.3%) were primigravida.  Cesarean hysterectomy was performed in two-thirds of women at the gestational age of 37 weeks or more and in one third at the gestational age of less than 37weeks.  The most common indication for cesarean hysterectomy was rupture uterus (58.3%), massive hemorrhage due to the placenta (15%). Placenta previa, uterine atony, and placenta adherent were indicated in 11.7%, 8.3%, 6.7%, respectively.  There were 53 stillbirths and 7 alive birth. The most common causes of death were placental abruption, ruptured uterus, and prematurity. There was 10 maternal death (16.7%) due to DIC in 6 women as a complication of massive hemorrhage and acute renal failure in 4 patients.  There were 42 maternal complications. These were due to shock (bleeding) in 14, DIC in ten, anemia in eight, acute renal failure in seven, and ureteric ligation in three. Conclusion: The incidence of cesarean hysterectomy was very high, and the most common causes were found to be due to rupture uterus and PPH due to uterine atony and abruption placenta and placenta previa. The maternal mortality rate was found to be very high and the prenatal mortality rate also was very high.

Importancia de la Enseñanza de la Historia para la Construcción de Ciudadanía
Authors: Delgado Silva Heriberto
Published: May 2023

Este artículo en cierta forma da cuenta de un estudio relacionado con la enseñanza y el aprendizaje de la historia mediante el uso de pedagogías emergentes; en este sentido, se propuso como objetivo fundamental analizar la importancia de la enseñanza de la historia en la educación básica secundaria en las instituciones educativas del municipio Piedecuesta del departamento de Santander, Colombia como medio para la construcción de ciudadanía. Los docentes en la enseñanza de la historia, en su praxis pedagógica se adscriben a una corriente historiográfica; unos están adscritos al marxismo, estimulan el razonamiento lógico y el pensamiento crítico de los alumnos; otros son afines al positivismo histórico y hay un grupo de docentes que no se ubican en las tipologías anteriores, por tanto, adoptan una tipología ecléctica. La enseñanza de la historia enfrenta en la actualidad un complejo desafío al transitar desde el paradigma tradicional a un paradigma constructivista, innovador, que apueste por el desarrollodel pensamiento histórico de los estudiantes desde una perspectiva crítica. La concepción de ciudadanía en los últimos años ha experimentado un verdadero auge dentro del ámbito académico, siendo uno de los objetos más abordados en los estudios de las ciencias sociales y humanas, especialmente en la educación. El desplazamiento de manera progresiva de los centros de poder, entre otros aspectos ha incidido en la configuración de nuevos escenarios en tanto espacios para el ejercicio de la ciudadanía. Lalabor del docente cobra una especial relevancia y compromiso, en la formación de los niños, niñas y jóvenes; y la enseñanza de la historia así como la construcción de ciudadanía deben convertirse en elementos fundamentales en el contexto de su formación integral.
Ética y Educación para una Cultura de Paz. 103-112
Authors: Duarte Ramírez Freddy Martín , Gutiérrez Jenny Rocío
Published: May 2023

En el artículo siguiente se hace un análisis de la Ética y Educación para una Cultura de Paz. En la educación para la paz existen dos conceptos imbricados de gran importancia y son los derechos humanos y la justicia. Por esta razón desde una educación formal e informal se hace énfasis por educar a los niños y jóvenes. De allí que se manifiesta el interés por incluir en los planes de estudio de educación para la paz. Por este motivo desde las Naciones Unidas se ha elaborado el Programa de Acción para una Cultura de Paz, y se han concentrado esfuerzos por lograr implementarlo y enseñar cómo se deben solucionar conflictos, la guerra, la violencia, el terrorismo, la explotación de género, a combatir el daño ambiental y oponerse a todo lo que sea contrario a la vida y a la dignidad humana. Pero la tarea no es fácil de asumir porque necesariamente se requiere un esfuerzo multidisciplinar para lograrlo a través de la educación. Sobre estos aspectos discurre el siguiente artículo.

Published: May 2023

The Dimensional Metrology Group (DMG) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has a unique 60 m long length facility that provides traceable reference lengths for the evaluation of measuring tapes, optical fibers, electronic distance meters, laser trackers and terrestrial laser scanners. In this report, we compare three methods to evaluate the ranging error of laser trackers in this facility. These include the back-to-back, the common path single pass, and the common path double pass method. We describe the different methods and compare them in terms of their advantages and disadvantages.
La religion, véritable credo du discours franquiste : traduction, censure et adaptation idéologique de La Terre, d’Émile Zola
Authors: Meseguer Cutillas Purificación
Published: May 2023

La littérature étrangère n’a cessé de représenter une menace pour l’Espagne franquiste. Les traductions produites à l’époque étaient systématiquement soumises à un examen destiné à détecter tout contenu subversif. Les censeurs avaient alors tout le loisir de caviarder ou même de réécrire des passages entiers d’oeuvres considérées comme potentiellement dangereuses. Par le biais de l’étude des traductions littéraires réalisées durant cette époque, il est possible d’observer dans quelle mesure les idées dissidentes ou contraires à l’ordre établi pouvaient ainsi être neutralisées, ou tout bonnement transformées en discours bienveillants envers le pouvoir en place. La plupart de ces oeuvres étrangères ont été retraduites depuis la fin de la dictature : certaines, cependant, circulent encore sous la forme censurée qui leur fut alors donnée. C’est le cas de La Terre, d’Émile Zola : ce roman, qui s’est attiré les foudres de la critique et des autorités à Paris, à Londres ou à Rome, pour son supposé caractère immoral voire tout à fait obscène, a donné lieu, en plein franquisme, à deux versions en espagnol. Pourtant, dans celles-ci, c’est manifestement le traitement de la question religieuse qui a posé le plus problème. Le sentiment antireligieux qui plane sur la communauté paysanne dépeinte dans cet épisode des Rougon-Macquart est complètement détourné, et le phénomène de déchristianisation qui s’y produit laisse même place, dans les deux traductions, à un renforcement de la foi. À travers l’analyse de ces versions en phase avec l’orthodoxie franquiste, cette étude a pour objet de reconstruire la micro-histoire du grand roman paysan de Zola dans le contexte de son importation au sein du système littéraire encadré par la dictature espagnole, en envisageant les processus de réception, de conditionnement et d’appropriation auxquels il a été soumis afin d’en assurer la conformité idéologique.
