Two decades of learning agility and an integrated framework: a review of literature and bibliometric analysis
Authors: Nayak Lagna , Malik Pooja 
Published: May 2024

Purpose
Due to the extremely complicated and unpredictable outside world, using and unlocking the potential of learning agility (LA) has become a key part of making businesses more competitive, and there is a lot of new research being produced on this topic very quickly. Thus, this study aims to carry out a bibliometric analysis to systematically analyse the existing literature on LA and propose an integrated framework depicting various predictors, mediators and outcome variables covered in the LA research. Moreover, this study lays out a rich and detailed agenda for future research and enhances understanding of LA by suggesting future research questions.

Design/methodology/approach
This study applied bibliometric analysis using the Scopus database. This study applied bibliometric analysis and cluster analysis to examine the contributions of research constituents (authors, institutions, countries and journals) and their structural and thematic relationships (co-citation network and thematic trends). The most important insights were used to propose an integrated conceptual model.

Findings
Based on the results of the performance analysis, this study discovered that the USA is the most productive country in this research field, followed by Belgium, Australia, Korea and India. In addition, the findings highlight the most prominent journals, authors and countries contributing to LA, document citations and theories contributing to the field of LA. This study identifies four emerging future research themes (clarity of construct, identification of variables to be studied with LA, strategies enhancing LA and context of study) and proposes subsequent research questions using science mapping analysis.

Practical implications
A review of existing literature on LA provides a clear understanding of the current and future state of research on this topic. And, from a practical standpoint, this study highlights emergent clusters that will help practitioners build LA as a tactical reaction to the current volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous environment.

Originality/value
This study is relevant as it aims to systematically review articles on LA and proposes an integrated conceptual framework based on existing literature that will serve as a guide for existing and future research in this area.
Impact pathways: a call for impactful research in supply chain GHG emissions reduction
Authors: Ellram Lisa M. , Tate Wendy L. 
Published: May 2024

PurposeThis impact pathway manuscript motivates and guides operations and supply chain management (OSCM) researchers to deeply consider the role of suppliers in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction. It prompts a reconsideration and update of their understanding of climate change in their research and the positive influence that research could have, specifically on reducing GHG emissions and slowing climate disasters.Design/methodology/approachThe authors use qualitative research methods, including a literature review, interviews with NGOs, focus groups with purchasing professionals and in-depth case studies.FindingsThe results provide insights into purchasing’s role in the engagement of suppliers in GHG emissions reduction efforts as organizations begin to advance the sustainability journey toward suppliers’ emissions reduction and their contribution to improvements in supply chain GHG emissions. The paper calls for more actionable academic research that can contribute to theory and practice.Research limitations/implicationsThis impact pathway article discusses how the topic of GHG supply chain emissions reduction is viewed in both research and practice. The current dire state of the environment and purchasing and supply chain involvement in GHG emissions reduction initiatives points to the need to develop impactful research. The paper closes with guidance on potential future research opportunities.Practical implicationsThe pressure on companies to reduce their GHG emissions has never been more significant, and companies have never before made as many public commitments to reduce their GHG emissions both internally and across the supply chain as they are making today. Managers must truly understand their role in reducing GHG emissions and their supply chain implications.Social implicationsGHG emissions reduction and associated climate change are top issues on the global climate agenda. Reducing emissions (and related climate change) has important positive implications for human health. This is especially true among underrepresented communities, which tend to be disproportionately impacted by living and working in weather-exposed climates with poor air quality.Originality/valueThe authors aim to stimulate new research and discussion through this pathway paper. The climate crisis is real, and the world is missing its GHG reduction targets. If companies limit their efforts and continue to make excuses, the world will continue its path to climate disaster.
How does digital government affect energy efficiency?
Authors: Xu Huijie 
Published: May 2024

PurposeThe rapid development and high penetration of digitalization have triggered profound changes in the energy sector. The purpose of this study is to integrate the government digital transformation into the analysis framework and discuss its impact on urban energy efficiency and its realization mechanism.Design/methodology/approachUsing the “Information Benefit Pilot City” (IBC) policy as a quasi-natural experiment, and drawing on data from 285 prefecture-level cities in China from 2008 to 2019, this paper discusses how digital government affects urban energy efficiency by using difference-in-differences (DID).FindingsThe results show that digital governance significantly improves energy efficiency, and this conclusion remains reliable even after a series of robustness tests, endogeneity processing and sensitivity analysis. Heterogeneity results show that resource-based, eastern, high economic development level and high urbanization rate city digital government construction are more conducive to improving energy efficiency. The mediating effect shows that the influence mechanism of digital government on energy efficiency mainly includes reducing carbon emission, promoting green technology innovation and attracting talents.Originality/value(1) From the perspective of government digital transformation, this study supplements the way to improve energy efficiency and also expands the social dividend of government governance transformation. (2) Through quasi-experimental analysis of IBC policy, this paper solves the problem of difficulty in quantifying the government's digital transformation indicators. (3) The impact heterogeneity and realization mechanism are further discussed and the specific ways of digital government's impact on energy efficiency are revealed.

Published: May 2024

AbstractDefatted Lagenaria siceraria seed flour (DLSSF) was obtained from defatted seed cake, dried, and ground through a sieve of 500 μm and characterized. A 2 × 4 factorial design (two flour hydration rates and four fat substitution rates) was used to produce a low‐fat beef patty by replacing fat with DLSSF. Beef kidney fat was used to formulate the control sample. Chemical, physical, technological, sensory, and nutritional characteristics of low‐fat beef patties manufactured were evaluated. DLSSF contains mainly protein. As fat replacers, DLSSF induces a significant increase in the pH of the raw and cooked patty, the moisture and protein contents, the cooking yield, the cohesion, chewiness, springiness, and lightness of the cooked beef patty with fat substitution rate. There is a decrease in fat content, total calories, water retention capacity, hardness, and redness of the cooked patty with a fat substitution rate. From the sensory analysis, the substitution of fat improves the acceptability of samples. Based on the overall parameters analyzed, DLSSF containing 60% water can be used to produce low‐fat beef patty by replacing fat at 100%. From these results, hydrated DLSSF could be an effective method to solve the problems of noncommunicable diseases related to animal fat consumption.
Analytical Solutions for Circular Elastic Membranes Under Pressure
Authors: Dai Zhaohe 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
This study investigates the problem of a circular elastic membrane clamped or adhered at its boundary and subjected to uniform transverse pressure. Many analytical solutions for this classical problem have been developed previously, using either a series-based approach (notably accurate but lengthy and implicit) or approximate kinematics (relatively simple yet lacking accuracy). Here, we seek new analytical solutions using a perturbed spherical cap to represent the shape of the pressurized membrane. Our approach yields simple, explicit solutions of remarkable accuracy for the deformed profile, pressure–deflection relation, strain distributions, and energy release rate, which are directly applicable to emerging ultrathin membrane systems.

Authors: Coelho Maria Cecília de Miranda N. 
Published: May 2024

Meu objetivo neste artigo é examinar alguns aspectos da adaptaçãopara o cinema, feita por Robert Bresson, de um episódio do romance de Denis Diderot, Jacques le fataliste. Pretendo analisar, comparativamente, a caracterização das duas personagens femininas principais, a partir da categoria de paixão, comentaras mudanças muito significativas no enredo e composição de personagens no filme, como a alteração do nome de Mlle d'Aisnon e de Mme de La Pommeraye para Agnès e Hélène, respectivamente. Na minha interpretação, apesar de elementos melodramáticos, o filme Les Dames du Bois de Boulogn e pode ser visto como obra de tonalidade trágica.
Litigating Collective Obligations before the International Court of Justice: Progress, Challenges and Prospects
Authors: Papa Maria Irene 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has generally dealt with questions raised by cases concerning the common interests of States in an episodic, fragmentary, and at times contradictory manner. However, a number of significant rulings have thus far been given, and recent developments have brought the issue of public interest litigation back into the spotlight. This article aims to bring together into a coherent and systematic framework the relevant data that can be drawn from the ICJ’s contentious case law. To this end, the examination is divided into three parts, distinguishing respectively between questions that can be considered to have been already resolved (i.e. questions concerning the jurisdiction in public interest cases), those that are currently being clarified (i.e. the issue of standing to institute proceedings for the protection of common interests) and those that are still entirely open (i.e. the qualification of the legal position of the omnes, the relationship between the standing of the specially affected State and that of the other omnes, and the remedies that the omnes are entitled to claim from the wrongdoer). The article highlights the ICJ’s unwillingness to address the question as to whether Article 48 ARSIWA may currently be deemed to reflect customary international law and some inconsistencies between the approaches of the ILC and the ICJ as regards collective obligations. This proves that, despite considerable progress in recent case law, the legal regime of collective obligations remains far from being clear, and many aspects still deserve close scrutiny.
The International Criminal Court (ICC)’s Procedural Practice and Domestic Legal Sources
Authors: Pérez-León-Acevedo Juan-Pablo 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Through the analysis of the ICC’s procedural jurisprudence related to Article 21(1)(c) of the ICC Statute, this article examines how the ICC has used domestic laws. To fill a legal gap in its instruments, the ICC “shall apply […] general principles of law derived by the Court from national laws of legal systems of the world including, as appropriate, the national laws of States that would normally exercise jurisdiction over the crime” (Article 21(1)(c)). The ICC has not directly applied specific domestic laws. Instead, it has used domestic procedural legal sources to derive general principles of law as a subsidiary applicable legal source and mainly when the ICC’s Judges are trying to fill legal gaps in the ICC’s legal instruments based on comparative law approaches. Thus, the present article shows how outdated the idea of domestic law as a fact has become, and the variety of functions domestic law plays currently in international courts and for international adjudicators.
Balancing the Interest in Prosecuting International Crimes against the Fair Trial Guarantees
Authors: Acconciamessa Lorenzo 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
The Italian Constitutional Court recently issued its ruling in the context of the criminal proceedings concerning the torture of Giulio Regeni, an Italian PhD student whose dead body was found in Egypt. The case raised the issue of whether the impossibility of prosecuting the alleged perpetrators of acts of torture was compatible with Italy’s international obligations. The Constitutional Court concluded that the duty to prosecute torture imposed to hold the trial even in absentia, subject to the right of the accused to obtain a retrial. This contribution will show how the Constitutional Court filled a lacuna in the domestic legal framework by balancing the international obligations at stake. It will assess the questionable aspect of the judgment, notably the identification of the source of the alleged duty of the State of passive nationality of the victim to prosecute of torture. Lastly, it will assess the case in the light of the international legal framework concerning trials in absentia.
Nkemvou, Nelo, and Tabula

Abstract
The Cameroon Grassfields faced extreme violence during German colonization in the early twentieth century. The German colonial army used various strategies, such as armed attacks, executions, looting, hostage-taking, and other repressive measures. After military subjugation by the German colonial army, however, the use of various forms of violence continued. Germans made use of multiple strategies in this mountain region to procure laborers for the colonial apparatus on the coast. At the same time, they claimed to be fighting “slave trade” and “slavery.” However, the coercive measures and violence used for this purpose were and are often characterized by those affected and their descendants as forms of “slave trade” and “slavery.” This article adopts an actor-centered approach that combines written sources with corresponding oral accounts and sheds light on local narratives about “labor recruitment.” This will reveal how and why colonized actors conceptualized the systems of coercion they resisted against differently from the German colonizers. The article argues that taking the perspective of colonized actors into account calls into question the distinction between “slave trading” and “labor recruitment.”
Feudalism on the Loango Coast?
Authors: Wimmler Jutta 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Louis de Grandpré’s book Voyage à la Côte Occidentale d’Afrique, published in 1801, is well-known to historians of Africa working on the eighteenth-century Loango Coast, located in the Cabinda province of Angola and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. In describing the laws and customs of the African societies in this region, de Grandpré invites the reader to imagine these societies as “feudal” in character and draws on the semantics of “slavery” in doing so. This article proposes that we need to place this text in the context in which it was written, namely the French Revolution and the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. We also need to consider why the author published this book in the first place, in order to understand how the terms “slave” and “slavery” function in this text. The article argues that Louis de Grandpré used the feudal/slavery nexus consciously in order to provide a legitimizing framework for a possible French conquest, hoping to prove his own loyalty and usefulness to Napoleon.
“A State Is Powerful if Its People Are Being Put to [Good] Use”
Authors: Schwermann Christian 
Published: May 2024

AbstractPeople of ancient Chinese states appear to have been asymmetrically dependent on their lords since the fourth century BCEfor three reasons: because they were ranked according to merit; because they could be sentenced to forced or convict labor; and because they were seen as and managed like a resource by their landlords. Instead of describing such states as all-encompassing slave societies based on state slavery, this article argues that it is more useful to examine structures of dependency and to identify the organizing principles on which they were based. In ancient China, such principles were formulated in the fourth and third centuriesBCEas part of an emerging reflection on principles of “laws and procedures” (fashu法術). Early Chinese “specialists in laws and procedures” (fashu zhi shi法術之士), as they called themselves, were not only familiar with concepts such as division of labor, economic cycles, supply and demand, incentives, or contrarian investment, but they also thought about resources and their management. The article explores this subject primarily through the economic thought ofShang jun shu商君書 (The Documents Pertaining to the Lord of Shang), a collection of treatises dating from about 360 to 210 BCEon radical administrative reforms designed to increase the productivity and efficiency of subjects in the fields of agriculture and warfare.
Influence of the Type of Mathematical Problems on Students’ and Pre-service Teachers’ Interest and Performance. A Replication and Elaboration Study
Authors: García-Cerdá Clara , Segura Carlos , Ferrando Irene 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Several studies confirm the importance of the role of students’ interest in learning mathematics. This article describes the process of conceptual replication of Rellensmann and Schukajlow’s (2017) research on how the connection to the reality of a mathematical problem affects the interest in solving it. Our study distinguishes between intramathematical problems, word problems and modelling problems. It was implemented with 80 Spanish ninth-grade students and 80 pre-service teachers. The results show that Spanish students are more interested in intramathematical problems and less interested in modelling problems, while pre-service teachers are more interested in problems connected to reality, especially word problems. We also provide data regarding the performance of students and prospective teachers, which is higher in word problems. In addition, we find that there are significant relationships between performance and task-specific interest. These results complement the original study, as they allow us to contrast whether there are differences with German students and to explain the German pre-service teachers’ judgements of students’ interest in problems with and without a connection to reality.

AbstractThis work studied the thermal stability, electrical, and thermoelectrical properties of copper(I) selenide, Cu2Se synthesized by high-energy milling in a planetary ball mill. The phase composition was investigated by X-ray powder diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscopy. The conversion of the precursors during mechanochemical synthesis and the stability of the product was monitored by thermal analysis. The dependence of electrical properties on the product porosity was observed. For the densification of Cu2Se, the method of spark plasma sintering was applied to prepare suitable samples for thermoelectric characterization. High-temperature thermoelectric properties of synthetic Cu2Se were compared to its natural analogue-mineral berzelianite in terms of its potential application in energy conversion. Based on the results a relatively high figure-of-merit, ZT parameter (~ 1.15, T = 770 K) was obtained for undoped Cu2Se, prepared by rapid mechanochemical reaction (5 min). Cyclic voltammetry measurements of Na/NaClO4/Cu2Se cell implied that mechanochemically synthesized Cu2Se could be used as a promising intercalation electrode for sodium-ion batteries.

Abstract
Background
Mild Cognitive impairment (MCI) is a pre-demented state in the elderly populace. The Mediterranean & Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) diet has shown promise in reducing the risk of MCI and Alzheimer’s disease in older people. Notably, the existing MIND diet is not adapted to the specific needs of older adults in Malaysia, considering distinct food cultures and availability. Consequently, this study aimed to develop the Malaysian version of the MIND diet (MY-MINDD) scores and investigate their association with MCI in the older adult populace of Malaysia.

Methods
A comprehensive pooled data analysis was conducted on combined data from 810 participants sourced from the longitudinal Long-Term Research Grant Scheme-Towards Useful Aging (LRGS-TUA) and Fundamental Research Grant Scheme (FRGS) studies. The MY-MINDD scores were developed by incorporating existing MIND diet food groups, their corresponding scoring mechanisms, and consideration of common Malaysian foods which are proven to be beneficial and detrimental to cognitive function. To substantiate the MY-MINDD scoring system, its association with MCI was evaluated using a series of validated neuropsychological test batteries.

Results
MY-MINDD consists of seven food groups promote brain health and four food groups exert negative cognitive outcomes. The study participants had an average age of 67.9 ± 4.7 years. The collective MY-MINDD score for all participants was 6.4 ± 0.1 (out of a maximum 11 points), revealing a lower score in individuals with MCI at 6.0 ± 1.7 compared to those without MCI at 6.6 ± 1.6 (p < 0.001). According to hierarchical multivariate binary logistic regression analysis, being in the highest tertile of MY-MINDD score was linked to reduced odds of MCI (odds ratio (OR) = 0.43, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.26–0.72, p < 0.001) in the fully adjusted model in comparison to the lowest tertile.

Conclusion
The development of the MY-MINDD scores for Malaysian older population revealed that a stronger adherence to this diet is linked to a reduced risk of MCI. Further substantiation of the MY-MINDD scores using more objective measures, such as neuroimaging approaches and other neuropsychological batteries, is necessary.
