E-Government Implementation Process in Rwanda: Exploring Changes in a Sociotechnical Perspective
Authors: Bakunzibake Pierre , Klein Gunnar O. , Islam Sirajul M. 
Published: May 2019

Abstract

Background: Failures in e-government projects to deliver expected results are frequent in the context of developing countries. These are partly attributed to the lack of balanced attention to both technical and social aspects in the implementation. However, there has been limited research on these aspects in the least Developed Countries. Objectives: Taking a socio-technical perspective, this study aims at exploring the extent of changes and effects in the implementation of e-government service-oriented initiatives in Rwanda, one of the Least Developed Countries. Methods/Approach: An empirical investigation was conducted, via interviews at 8 agencies during the period from January 2017 to May 2018. This involved two case projects, an Enterprise Content Management System and a One-Stop e-government system. Furthermore, government documents and online material were analyzed. Results: A number of changes in technology, processes and people aspects were faced in both projects. However, those changes are coupled with secondary effects; there is a need for a better fit between technical systems and social systems of organizations implementing e-government; a larger gap was identified in the first case project. Conclusions: Addressing the issues as a socio-technical system would contribute to improved work systems of agencies and better services.

Abstract
Although the orthogonal systems are predominantly employed within modern technologies, some general systems can be found principally in nature. Progress in the field of nanotechnologies based on a condensed matter will reach its limit at a certain moment, which may be caused by material limits or limits of manufacturing technologies. This limitation will affect both approaches, the top-down as well as the bottom-up. Another way to obtain a nanostructure will be based purely on nature and its ability to grow, which requires a deep understanding of the world of biology. This natural approach is closely connected with a precise mathematical description which is necessary for employment of both the analytical and synthetic tools which are presently available within the frame of current technological methods. In this paper, we present an analysis of a model based on a spiral arrangement on a series of elements.
Metamagnetism in manganate magnesium ferrite
Authors: Sláma Jozef , Pal’a Jozef , Šoka Martin , Lokaj Jan 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
The metamagnetic properties of the manganese magnesium ferrites having the general formula Mn0.7Mg0.3Fe2O4 prepared by the standard ceramic technique have been studied. It is proposed that when a change of temperature at adequate magnetic field is applied in a Mn0.7Mg0.3Fe2O4 a magnetic phase transition will be generated, giving rise to an antiferromagnetic (AFM) state from ferrimagnetic (FM) phase. The critical transition field H
ac = 300 A/m was estimated for critical magnetization curve of transition from the metamagnetic behavior to FM behavior of sample. The FM to AFM transition in these ferrites is accompanied by a Néel type to Yafet-Kittel type transition and gradual spin ordering changes of the unit cell volume. The application of an external magnetic field to the low-temperatures AFM state causes the sample to reset to the original FM state.
Species Composition and Biotopical Distribution of Blackflies (Diptera, Simuliidae) on the South-Western Macroslope of the Ukrainian Carpathians
Authors: Tepliuk A. M. 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
The blackflies on the south-western macroslope of the Ukrainian Carpathians are represented by 45 species. Forty of them are registered in the rivers (Simpson’s diversity index (Іs) equals to 0.019), and 29 species in the streams (Іs — 0.090). Twenty-four simuliid species are common for both types of water ways (Czekanowski/Sørensen similarity index (І) is 0.4). Only 16 species develop in the rivers, and 5 types of blackflies live only in the streams. Mass development of the following species in hydrobiocoenoses on the south-western macroslope of the Ukrainian Carpathians: Simulium trifasciatum and S. ornatum. Species such as S. ornatum, S. reptans and S. trifasciatum are widespread here. Simuliid faunas of main regional altitudinal plant groups differed in composition and quantitative correlation of species. Simulium argyreatum, S. intermedium, S. ornatum, S. trifasciatum and S. variegatum were eurytopic. The reachest species composition (29) was recorded in Rakhiv subdistrict in the district of spruce-fir-beech, spruce-beech-fir and spruce-beech Transcarpathian forests, and the poorest composition (15) is in the beech forests of southern megaslope of the Polonynian Beskyd, subdivision of beech Carpathian forests.
The "Revival" of Abram Leon
Authors: Elmaliach Tal 
Published: May 2019

The Jewish Question: A Marxist Interpretation, by Abram Leon, was the most influential book among critics of Zionism during the New Left era. It was first published in 1946 but did not receive significant public attention in the next two decades. However, during the late 1960s and early 1970s, it became a bestseller in terms of theoretical Marxist literature. Focusing on its re-publication in the United States in 1971, this article explores why the book's popularity transformed, almost overnight. Its main argument is that although current research deals mostly with Leon’s theoretical importance, the book’s revival in the 1960s and 1970s should be explained from a social and political perspective. Leon’s claims against Zionism, which had been developed in the late 1930s, lost their relevance after the Second World War as a result of the establishment of the state of Israel as well as the crisis of the global Left in the 1950s. They gained new importance only under new conditions: the rise of the New Left’s interest in the Middle-East conflict, the struggle between the anti- and pro-Zionist Jews of the New Left following the Six-Day War, and internal debates among the anti- and pro-Zionist Jews themselves. The "revival" of Abram Leon therefore reveals the ideological, organizational and social ties between the Old and the New Left, as well as the general interaction between ideology and social and political conditions.
Severing Grandma’s Phallus
Authors: Rothschild N. Harry 
Published: May 2019

In 695, at the peak of her Zhou 周 dynasty (690-705), Wu Zhao 武曌 (624-705), China’s first and only female emperor, erected the Axis of the Sky (Tianshu 天樞), a hundred-foot tall octagonal Buddhist pillar topped with a quartet of dragons holding aloft a scintillating fire pearl, a monument that, according to Song Confucians “exalted the Zhou and disparaged the Tang.” In 714, her grandson Li Longji 李隆基 (685-762), emperor Tang Xuanzong 唐玄宗 (r.712-56), ordered this phallic pillar razed, and smelted its bronze and iron into weapons. This reactionary public political act played an important symbolic role in a wider campaign to re-institute a Confucian moral order that placed Han Chinese above non-Han subjects in the restored Tang 唐 (618-90, 705-907) realm, re-installed a normative patriarchal order that placed men over women, and re-situated Confucianism over Buddhism. Building on the work of Antonino Forte and Zhang Naizhu, in a triptych portraying erection, ejaculation, and castration, respectively, this article examines the dynamic, fluid political and ideological contexts in which Wu Zhao erected her magnificent phallic pillar and Xuanzong destroyed it.
TEACHING PRACTICUM ACTIVITIES AT THE UNIVERSITY OF LANGUAGES AND INTERNATIONAL STUDIES - VIETNAM NATIONAL UNIVERSITY, HANOI FROM THE TEACHERS’ AND STUDENTS’ PERSPECTIVES
Authors: Lan Nguyen Thuy 
Published: May 2019

Practicum is always an important and indispensable component in a training program in general and a foreign language teacher education program in particular. Through this activity, students will be able to put their acquired knowledge into practice, thereby shortening the gap of "apprenticeship" of young graduates. To assess the appropriateness of the current teaching practicum at the University of Languages and International Studies - Vietnam National University, Hanoi (ULIS-VNU), the study has conducted a survey with 30 teachers and 100 students. The initial results show that in terms of practicum duration and implementation time, most teachers required that the duration should be increased because 06 weeks was not enough for students to practice and learn from experience. However, most students believed that the current internship was reasonable in the final semester of the training program. Concerning the time of starting the internship, the majority of teachers said that students should start their internship in the last semester when they had sufficient foreign language skills and pedagogical skills; students conversely preferred to practice earlier. In terms of skills and knowledge that need to be equipped for students, all participants agreed that the training of soft skills should be added. In terms of the highschools that receive student teachers, most participants believed that those should be selected by the university; however, the schools’ level of support and effectiveness in guiding students were not highly appreciated. The initial findings of this study may serve as suggestions for the continous revision and improved facilitation of the teaching practicum activities at ULIS-VNU to achieve the goals of training prospective student-teachers.

Neste sentido, o enfoque principal está na historicidade dos Direitos Humanos defendida por Bobbio e na importância do direito ao trabalho e ao lazer destacado por Hannah Arendt.”. Também recebe destaque neste trabalho as Cartas Encíclicas Pacem in Terris e Rerum Novarum, que figuram como elemento importante na historicidade dos Direitos Humanos, inclusive na construção do Direito do trabalho.
Social phobia: relevance and perspectives
Authors: Avramchuk Oleksandr 
Published: May 2019

Background

Epidemiological studies indicate that social anxiety disorder is one of the most
common mental health disorders. However, despite the prevalence of social anxiety disorder, a
large amount of information, the possibilities of psychotherapy and medical treatment, many
patients for various reasons do not receive or do not seek help.

Aim

Generalization of actual knowledge and research on the aetiology and pathogenetic
mechanisms of social phobias and coverage of the actual issues of low referral of people
suffering from social phobia

Methods

For review, the following databases, such as ScienceDirect, ResearchGate, PubMed and
Google Scholar, were used. The search was performed using the keywords: social anxiety disorder,
sociophobia, social anxiety, cognitive-behavioral model, neurobiology, mental health.

Results

The general information about social anxiety disorder, its prevalence and its
consequences were covered. The main etiological mechanisms, modern views on the neurobiological
and psychological basis of the disorder are considered. In addition, the peculiarities of the
clinical picture and its influence on the social functioning of the individual, including the
referral of help, were analyzed. The aspects that are useful to consider during the development
of recommendations for specialists in general medical practice and centers of public mental
health were suggested.

Conclusion
A social anxiety disorder should be considered as a complex mental health disorder.
Recognition of signs of social anxiety disorder in their component often leads to a false
interpretation of clinical signs as manifestations of depression or other neurotic disorders
among primary care professionals. Informing general practitioners and specialists of public
mental health centers about the traits of the clinical picture and the social functioning of
patients with this disorder can help to overcome the stigma and improve the referral of
qualified assistance.

La acreditación de la de educación superior colombiana. Balance y perspectivas
Authors: Ramírez Tulio , Almeida Parra Gloria 
Published: May 2019

En Colombia, existen dos procesos que buscan que la oferta de los servicios educativos en el nivel superior, sean ofrecidos con calidad. El primero de ellos es el registro calificado, el cual es liderado por la Comisión Nacional de Aseguramiento de la calidad de la Educación Superior- CONACES, del Ministerio de Educación Nacional- MEN, proceso este de carácter obligatorio al cual están sujetos todos los programas ofrecidos por las IES-IES. En segundo lugar se encuentra el Proceso de Acreditación, a cargo del Consejo Nacional de Acreditación-CNA, organismo también dependiente del MEN. Contrario al primer proceso, éste, es de carácter voluntario.Estos procesos de autoevaluación para el registro calificado y la acreditación de alta calidad, se constituyen en herramientas de gran valor para determinar hasta qué punto una institución de educación superior cuenta con los elementos que le permiten estar al tanto de las necesidades que manifiesta la sociedad, en un momento donde es más fácil acceder a la información y a diferentes formas del conocimiento. Las transformaciones que ha logrado el proceso de regulación y medición de las Instituciones de Educación Superior-IES en Colombia, han permitido estas identifiquen la forma como pueden realizar su autoevaluación, aplicando el principio de la autonomía universitaria. Esto, ha conllevado a que las instituciones educativas definan planes de mejoramiento que les permita el logro de niveles de calidad aceptados por las autoridades académicas del caso. Es pertinente identificar la importancia de esos procesos, definiendo qué se ha logrado hasta el momento en Colombia y qué faltaría por lograr. Es un reto que tienen todas las IES, que ya no es importante y suficiente pensar y actuar localmente sino que debemos trascender a otros medios recurriendo a la internacionalización y con ello a herramientas que nos permitan interactuar con organismos y comunidades del mundo.

Exclusiones silenciosas surge como categoría emergente del macro-proyecto de investigación denominado “Concepciones y prácticas pedagógicas de los maestros de niños, niñas y jóvenes en situación de vulnerabilidad institucional, cultural, ambiental y/o de entorno” de las instituciones educativas de algunos municipios de los departamentos de Huila, Valle del Cauca y Risaralda. Dicho estudio tuvo como objetivo general, develar y comprender los significados que existen en las instituciones sobre las prácticas pedagógicas que se realizan con estudiantes en situación de vulnerabilidad.Metodológicamente el estudio es de carácter comprensivo, utilizando la Teoría Fundada como forma de hacer análisis, apoyada en la fenomenología; los propósitos y metas de la investigación se enmarcan en una practica social, explorando la interconexión entre los aspectos subjetivos y cognoscitivos de los docentes y sus practicas pedagógicas; fue necesario usar una metodología que incorporara la experiencia de los mismos, sus acciones, pensamientos, sentimientos y percepciones como el principal foco de investigación. Se adopto la entrevista abierta con la finalidad de descubrir las propiedades y dimensiones de las categorías en los contextos específicos.El articulo inicia con una reflexión de la escuela tradicional como paradigma actual y escenario en donde se propicia las discriminaciones, se continúa con las exclusiones silenciosas existentes en el aula y se termina con la inclusión como una propuesta para acabar las exclusiones en la educación.
