Authors: Brovina Ngadhnjim 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
The Integrations plan is a process that requires work, time and institutional commitment. The mobilization of all bring the success of acceptance into the Euro-Atlantic, which is main intention of the Republic of Kosovo to be part of European Union, NATO, etc..
In the phase where the new republic is found in Europe, is initial stage, figuratively speaking "as a child in the first steps of walking."
The commitment of the Government of the Republic of Kosovo, especially the Ministry of Integration and Foreign Ministry, is not missing, even though is required work and cooperation from the other ministries, also by the citizens themselves, diaspora, businesses, etc..
As the newest state without any political and diplomatic influence, the Republic of Kosovo should strengthen the sector of public diplomacy which mobilizes all institutional structures, non-governmental organizations, individual citizens, etc..
Public diplomacy is seen as a way of achieving the goals by smaller states which do not have influence on other forms. This diplomacy also sends to achievement of goals for integration, and my suggestion about the fulfillment of conditions for integration is to use public diplomacy, about forms and methods that should be used by the Republic of Kosovo, I have explore and explain in the continuing of the paper

Published: July 2018

Abstract
Assessment of slope stability influenced by vegetation cover and additional loads applied. The article presents the results of research conducted in order to create nomographs allowing assessment of slope stability. The proposed recommendations involve graphs and charts, where factor of safety (FOS) is computed in according to six different characteristics: slope height and angle, slope surface vegetation cover, applied surcharge, position of water table, soil mechanical conditions. For the purpose of the research several geotechnical models and approaches were used and became a basis for developing simplified method of predicting the failure of natural and engineered slopes. The advantage of the solutions presented is their simplicity of use; as further FOS calculations are not required during the complex assessment of slope stability

Abstract
Monitoring of pavement state as a basis for economic regulation of greenhouse gases emissions. Road complex which includes a road network with traffic, road services, car repair businesses, and enterprises for the production of fuels and materials for the repair of roads, is an important source of environmental pollution, and the degree of contamination depends on the quality of the road pavement. The present research is aimed to find the interaction between the amount of emissions into the environment from whole road complex and condition of road cover, on creation of a simplified method of determining economic damage from environmental pollution at the road operation and to develop basic mechanism of the economic impact on road services at excess emissions. According to the results of computer experiments mathematical relations of complex road emissions from the evenness of road pavement were obtained. Worked out method of greenhouse (and other) emission inventory permits to determine the total amount of emissions and to identify excess emissions relative to some acceptable level. Definition of economic damage of environmental pollution during road operation can be the basis for determining the amount of ban impositions on road service

Abstract
Usability of fl y ash for filtration barriers. The results of permeability and compressibility tests of the fl y ash from Skawina Power Plant were presented in the paper. These tests were carried out in the aspect of its usage in filtration barriers in municipal and industrial waste landfills. It was stated that the tested fl y ash can not be used for filtration barriers, mainly because of granulation and filtration criteria. Although, the addition of another soil or a hydraulic binding agent would improve its granulation and would increase impermeability

Published: July 2018

Abstract
The long-term annual regime of shallow groundwater levels is analysed in two different time periods
according to the dominance of continental and oceanic air masses in Latvia. Observed and modelled long-term mean monthly groundwater levels for the reference period (1961-1990) and a future period (2070-2100) are transformed into relative values and the contours are derived for each month of the year. In both periods, the main difference between the mildly oceanic western coastal part of Latvia and the continental eastern part is the pattern of the winter regime which responds differently to snowmelt. In the coastal areas, where the degree of climatic continentality is low, groundwater levels during the winter are higher than those areas in the inland eastern part of the country. From May to September, there is only temporal difference between the groundwater levels in those two parts of Latvia. There are significant differences of relative groundwater levels between reference and future periods during the winter months.

Authors: Bernande Māra 
Published: July 2018

ABSTRACT
The present article reviews life activities as a form of existence, manifesting itself in real actions in various aspects of one’s life within its interaction with the external environment. The Aim of the Study was brought forth - to analyse the results of empirical research on youth purposefulness facilitating factors in life activities at school and compare the differences of the factors on groups of youth from the 9th and 12th grade. The present article reviewed the self-assessment results of youth purposefulness facilitating subjective and objective factors’ in two attempts - in 9th grade (2008) and in 12th grade (2011), as well as the dynamics of such factors. The results revealed a positive youth purposefulness formation dynamics over time as well as the results uncovered profound differences within the objective factors associates with the role of school in the facilitation of purposefulness and selfassessment. The article summarises the major conclusions, which indicate that the subjective and objective pedagogical realities are linked in terms of youth purposefulness facilitation which manifests itself as a relation between the subjective and objective factors. Such subjective and objective factors differ depending on the young person’s age which in turn is indicated by the substantial shift of self-assessment results concerning the evaluation of purposefulness facilitating subjective and objective factors. The findings indicate towards very urgent matters that must be addressed in the course of the pedagogical process by planning and managing the development of youth purposefulness.
Miłosz poza biegunami
Authors: Przymuszała Beata 
Published: July 2018

Summary
This article draws on Jan Błoński’s polar formula (later developed by other critics) in interpreting Czesław Miłosz’s poetry. Błoński approach situates Miłosz’s work in opposition to linguistic concepts of poetry only and at the same time treats it as an endorsement of values that are distinguished by their clarity. This article exposes the narrow scope of such dichotomous readings and suggests that Miłosz’s work be seen as a attempt at a chiastic balance between extremities. In this perspective Miłosz can be regarded as a follower of the vitalist way of thinking - fully conscious of the human condition and affirming life in spite of the certainty of death.

MYCORRHIZAL GROWTH RESPONSE AND GLOMALIN PRODUCTION EFFECTED BY ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZAL FUNGI (AMF) AND NITROGEN OF ORGANIC MATERIALS ON CORN
Authors: Eti Farda Husin and Azwar Rasyidin Eddiwal, Amrizal Saidi, 
Published: July 2018

Symbiotic relationships between arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and plants can increase the capacity of plants to absorb nutrients and water from the soil by exploring micropores not accessible to plant roots. The arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis between plants and soil fungi improves phosphorus and nitrogen acquisition under limiting conditions. Recent discoveries indicate that AMF hyphae containing glomalin as glycoproteins and function unitinge the soil particles to form stable soil aggregates. Glomalin acts as an adhesive (glue) produced by AMF symbiosis with the host plant. The AMF is capable of taking nitrogen and other nutrients from a source of organic materials to produce glomalin which is transferred to the host plant. The study was conducted using nitrogen from forage materials of Tithonia (Tithonia difersifolia) which the AMF needs to produce glomalin. This study assess the need for organic N by AMF to the mycorrhizal growth effect and its effects on glomalin. The study use sterile medium sand and zeolite mixture (w/w 1:1) in pot culture experiments with the corn as the host. For treatments using N derived from Tithonia are five doses, namely 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40 mg of N Tithonia each pot. At Â the time of planting, the corn roots inoculated with AMF spores of the two species, namely Glomus luteum and Glomus versiforme. We show that a positive mycorrhizal growth response (MGR) was observed only in the dose of range 20 to 30 mg N. This response did not appear to be affected by high nitrogen supply. Our results also show that in Glomus luteum at the dose of 20 mg N produce glomalin highest, namely 2.60 mg.g-1 in the planting medium. Glomus versiforme has produced glomalin is 2.38 mg.g-1 at the dose of 30 mg N. The AMF species did not significantly affect the results of glomalin, while the use of N from forage materials of Tithonia significantly influenced the production of glomalin.

Published: July 2018

A study has been conducted on the crop-livestock integration innovation using palm oil by-products technology to support beef cattle production in 2014. The collected data consisted of (i) Socio-economic aspects, (ii) The body weight gain of cattle, and (iii) Palm oil production. These data were taken from Sri Langgeng farmers group (13 respondents) in Dharmasraya district and Tanjung Keramat farmers group (10 respondents) in West Pasaman district. The results of the socio economic aspects showed; the Â average age of farmers was 39 years old, owned palm oil plantation of 2,2 and, 4,1 ha, and owned of 4.2 and 6.2 head of cattle in Tanjung Keramat and Sri Langgeng respectively. The average monthly income was Rp 1.63 million and about Rp 1.05 million derived from livestock contribution in Tanjung Keramat, and Rp 1.65 million and about Rp 1.71 million derived from livestock contribution in Sri Langgeng. Feeding a supplement of palm oil by-products increased cattle growth by about 0.14 and 0.09 kg/head/day at Sri Langgeng and Tanjung Keramat respectively. In contrast, the animals in a control treatment experienced body weight losses of -0.17 and -0.11 kg/head/day. The application of organic fertilizer from cattle manure, above the inorganic fertilizer, increased the palm oil fruit by 39.4% and 48.4%. The research proved that there is an opportunity to accelerate the adoption process of crop-livestock integration in palm oil plantation areas in West Sumatra.
Desarrollo productivo, crecimiento urbano y resiliencia territorial: dinámicas locales en el contexto del área metropolitana de Concepción (Chile)
Authors: Prada-Trigo José , Aravena Solís Natalia 
Published: July 2018

Las ciudades son sistemas complejos, que evolucionan a lo largo del tiempo mostrando una determinada especialización productiva, así como una ocupación del espacio que se traduce en densidades, usos del suelo y crecimientos dispares. Estos fenómenos, pese a que en general se consolidan en el tiempo, pueden ser afectados por eventos naturales, que provocan disrupciones y cambios en la evolución espacial o económica referida. Desde esta perspectiva, este artículo analiza e interpreta el caso de Talcahuano, ciudad chilena perteneciente al área metropolitana de Concepción que, al verse afectada por un buen número de eventos naturales, ha aprovechado las situaciones post-evento para ajustar su modelo de crecimiento territorial y económico. Para realizar la aproximación a este caso de estudio se emplea una metodología cualitativa, basada en las entrevistas en profundidad a actores clave. Los resultados obtenidos indican que, pese a haberse visto afectada por tres grandes terremotos y tsunamis, y un proceso agudo de desindustrialización desde los años 70, Talcahuano ha logrado rehacerse a sí misma, dando muestras de una interesante capacidad de resiliencia territorial, pese a la presencia de algunas debilidades persistentes.

Authors: BADALOV Shahriyar 
Published: July 2018

Cultural varieties between negotiators are constant in international business negotiation processes. In our modern world, there is a rapid development of international connections in all kind of spheres of human activity. The major aim of this study is to analyse and develop knowledge on the characteristics of intercultural negotiation that will give opportunities to the national representatives to be determined to their particular types of cultures, as well as to endow the characteristics of different countries in some business spheres.On a regular basis, in order to manage the expectations of the other party to the negotiations, it is important to discover the values of the associated partner at the supply stage and to try to manage all the information in the negotiation process, understanding the values and context of the other party involved in the negotiation process in the right place in order to make somewhat useful expectations from the other side, which would help to escape new conflicts in various business bargaining processes.In general, is notable from everyone that culture impacts the time, the style, and the course of the negotiation process. If prevented, cross-cultural connections may weaken an organization’s position in the market, protect it from fulfilling its purposes and eventually lead to reverse of negotiation. The research paper is focused in the scientific discussion part on the impact of intercultural negotiations on the international business environment, it can ensure inspiration and guidance for entrepreneurs, as well as helping them to understand the complexity of economic factors as one of the intercultural negotiating features which is of more interest for the students who are working on cultural diversity and its impact on business. This research thoroughly connects the characteristics of various national cultures with different areas of international business and tries to show the relationship and complexity of international negotiation issues in different contexts. The article should be useful resource for experts, students and researchers who are conducting more research in this sphere.
El Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos y la protección de los derechos de las mujeres
Authors: Larralde Jean-Manuel 
Published: July 2018

El Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos ha desarrollado una jurisprudencia protectora de las mujeres que se despliega de dos maneras complementarias; de una parte, apoyándose sobre el principio de no discriminación el Tribunal contribuye a promover las condiciones de igualdad de trato entre hombres y mujeres privilegiando la universalidad de los derechos protegidos por la Convención Europea de Derechos Humanos. Por otra parte, consciente de que las mujeres pertenecen a un grupo específico que requiere de medidas especiales de protección, el Tribunal ha desarrollado una jurisprudencia aplicable específicamente a las mujeres, reconociéndoles parcialmente un derecho a la libre disposición de sus cuerpos e imponiéndole a los Estados europeos la implementación de mecanismos de protección para combatir la violencia contra las mujeres

Del reconocimiento de los derechos a su realización efectiva: el ser y el deber ser de los derechos de las mujeres
Authors: Sánchez Martínez María Olga 
Published: July 2018

El artículo se centra en demostrar con argumentos la conveniencia de mostrar específicamente los derechos de las mujeres en el contexto global de los derechos humanos, de avanzar hacia un modelo más respetuoso de las diferencias que requieren el reconocimiento de las identidades singulares, para pasar del reconocimiento de los derechos de la mujer a su propio desarrollo, para reconocer que la cuestión de los derechos de la mujer no es una realidaduniversal, sino local que requiere de mecanismos capaces de trascender las fronteras nacionales, la cultura, la raza, la religión o la posición social, de visualizar cómo el respeto por los derechos de las mujeres son como un acto propagador del crecimiento económico y contribuye a acelerar el desarrollo. Para concluir que la promoción de los derechos de la mujer ya no debe ser considerada como un asunto de mujeres, sino como un gran problema de la justicia social y como un freno al progreso que afecta a mujeres y hombres.

Published: July 2018

El tratamiento jurídico de las víctimas políticamente complejas, es decir, las víctimas que tienen una responsabilidad en los hechos que condujeron a su propia victimización dentro del conflicto armado, ha correspondido con la tradición jurídico-filosófica del derecho penal del enemigo, en donde el derecho es usado como arma de guerra e implica el desconocimiento total de los derechos humanos de los considerados enemigos y la impunidad para los agresores, situación que ha cambiado a partir de las condenas al Estado colombiano y a miembros de lasFuerzas Militares por desapariciones forzadas y ejecuciones extrajudiciales de víctimas políticamente complejas, especialmente en el caso del Palacio de Justicia, por parte de la Corte Interamericana de Derechos Humanos y tribunalesnacionales.
Las capacidades y oportunidades de las mujeres como protagonistas integrales en el desarrollo humano
Authors: Forero González Yésica 
Published: July 2018

Este artículo presenta un breve acercamiento relacionado con la elevación integral de la condición de la mujer en el ámbito de sus capacidades y oportunidades, su vinculación con los aspectos económicos, políticos, culturales y en general como componentes del desarrollo.En un primer momento, entrelazar teorías y políticas del desarrollo humano con perspectiva de género es vital para aproximarse a visiones integrales centradas en la persona; si bien es cierto las mujeres han sido en muchos casos invisibilizadas y tratadas desigualmente con relación a los hombres, la lucha de las mujeres en pro del respeto a sus derechos en igualdad de oportunidades las ha hecho partícipes a través de movimientos feministas y agencias sociales, convirtiéndose así en sujetos activos de cambio y progreso continuo.
