The category of «citizenship» as a pedagogical problem
Authors: Sirotkin O. E. 
Published: January 2024

The problem of citizenship of the population has been one of the main problems of civilized countries for a number of centuries. In modern geopolitical conditions in the Russian Federation this problem has acquired a special scientific and pedagogical status, which is supported by a number of legislative and public initiatives. The implementation of the strategy outlined by the state for the formation of citizenship among the younger generation will be facilitated by a complex of pedagogical influences in different educational environments. This circumstance has made it possible to formulate a scientific problem, which consists in the need for a theoretical substantiation of the definition of «citizenship» as a pedagogical category. The purpose of the research is to theoretically substantiate the essence of the category «citizenship» as a subject of pedagogical discourse based on the ideas of humanitarian knowledge. To achieve this goal, the following methods have been used: analysis of scientific literature and regulatory documents, generalization, synthesis, logical modeling.The research results: scientific facts have been identified that reflect the features of approaches to substantiating the category of «citizenship»; the components of citizenship as a pedagogical category have been substantiated; the high significance of the pedagogical approach in comparison with existing approaches in the interpretation of the category under consideration has been proven.Key conclusions: «citizenship» has a diverse interpretation in modern humanitarian knowledge, most extrapolated in sociological and pedagogical research; the structural components of citizenship as a pedagogical category are cognitive, emotional, motivational-need, activity-based, and the result of its formation in young people is civic maturity. The system-forming factor in substantiating the concept of citizenship is the pedagogical approach, which forms the foundation of the substantiation, because lays down the vector and mechanisms for its formation in all institutions of socialization of the individual at all levels of education.
The evolution of the internal political situation in Libya after the overthrow of the Gaddafi regime
Authors: Ivashchenko I. S. 
Published: January 2024

Researchers from Western countries and some Russian scientists initially enthusiastically classified anti-government protests and uprisings in the 2010s in a number of Arab countries in the Middle East and North Africa as «Arab Spring» or «Arab Awakening».However, the consequences of these «springs» and «awakenings» in some countries of the abovementioned region caused less delight and more anxiety. Indeed, if Tunisia after its «Arab Spring» returned to stable development, in Egypt one general (Hosni Mubarak) was replaced by another (Abdul-Fattah al-Sisi), then in Yemen, and especially in Libya, as a consequence of the «Arab awakenings» civil wars occurred, that are still ongoing, and threaten the complete disintegration of the above-mentioned countries.Based on the above, it is quite obvious that the analysis of the causes, the content of the main stages and consequences of the evolution of the internal political situation in Libya after the overthrow of the regime of M. Gaddafi in October 2011 is not only an urgent scientific, but also a political task. The purpose of the article is to analyze the reasons for the destabilization of the internal political situation in Libya since October 2011, the content of its key stages and consequences. When writing the text of the article, the following scientific methods were used: problem-chronological, comparativehistorical, periodization method, historical-genetic, historical-retrospective, etc. The development of the internal political situation in Libya since October 2011 has led the Libyan state to total disintegration. The Libyan statehood, which until October 2011 was not particularly strong and stable, is confidently drifting towards fragmentation and autonomy within not only individual regions, but even individual cities.
The Underground Railroad: main aspects of operation
Authors: Khapchaev S. T. 
Published: January 2024

The relevance of the research topic. Wherever slavery existed, people attempted to escape, and American history is no exception. Sometimes such efforts took on organized and institutionalized forms, a notable example of which is the so-called Underground Railroad, a secret and organized system of resistance to enslavement by facilitating the escape of African Americans to northern states and other territories. In the chosen context of the research, the Underground Railroad can rightfully be considered one of the first mass movements for human rights not only in the United States, but also in the world.The purpose of the research is to reveal the main aspects of the functioning of the Underground Railroad, since this problem is extremely poorly covered by domestic science.The research is based on a scientific analysis of biographical data, literary sources, legal documents, materials from periodicals and has been carried out by applying the principle of historicism, comparative historical, problem-chronological, biographical and descriptive methods.The research results demonstrate that, in order to prevent human trafficking, individuals, families, and communities with anti-slavery attitude created preconditions for the formation of a large-scale institutionalized system that stretched from the Canadian provinces of Quebec and Ontario east to the Atlantic coast, south to Florida and the Caribbean, and west to the border enclaves of Kansas, Texas, and Mexico.On the basis of the research results, it has been concluded that the term «Underground Railroad», although it does not reflect the specifics of its activities, denotes a very real historical phenomenon. The organization and activities of the Underground Railroad became an important component in the difficult task of eradicating slavery in the United States.
Comparative Analysis of COVID-19 Pandemic-Related Mental Health Effects on Children with Household Healthcare Workers vs. Those Without
Authors: Vallabhaneni Rohil 
Published: January 2024

Purpose: The primary objective of this pilot study is to investigate and comprehend the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on children's mental health based on the presence of household members working in healthcare settings.
Methods: Permission was secured from the Research Department of a densely populated county in the state of Georgia. Subsequently, an online survey was conducted among participants consisting of high school and middle school students, aiming to evaluate their mental health experiences three years following the onset of the pandemic in the United States. The survey included questions related to fear, sadness, preferences for online schooling, changes in sleeping habits, and whether anyone in the household worked in a healthcare setting. Responses were collected on a Likert scale with options "Yes," "No," and "Maybe."
Findings: Among both groups of children about two thirds reported no increase in fear three years after the onset of pandemic. Around 25% of the children in both groups reported increased sadness. The majority of children in either group did not prefer online schooling.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: This survey underscores the need to consider household dynamics, specifically the presence of healthcare workers, when addressing children's sleeping habits during global stress situations such as pandemics.
Does the Scouting Combine Influence a Player's Standing in the NFL Draft?
Authors: West Thomas , Donahue Drew , Kogan Theo , Sommers Paul Martin 
Published: January 2024

The annual scouting combine gives National Football League (NFL) teams an opportunity to assess over four days the skills of that year’s most promising college football players. The authors merge two data sets on over one thousand draft eligible football players spanning the ten-year period between 2014 and 2023 on their ultimate draft pick numbers and selected combine test results. Combine test results are converted to z-scores, that is, each participant’s number of standard deviations above or below the average performance in that year’s particular combine test. Wide receivers’ standing in the NFL’s draft correlates well with combine test results in the 40-yard dash. However, the authors find little-to-no relationship between combine test results and draft pick status over the last five years (let alone the last ten) for defensive backs, running backs, and defensive linemen who participated in, respectively, the vertical leap, broad jump, and bench press repetitions.
Los que regresan y los que no: posmemoria y provocación en libros álbum sobre niñas y niños evacuados
Authors: Arizpe Solano Evelyn 
Published: January 2024

En las décadas de los años treinta y cuarenta serealizaron grandes evacuaciones de grupos de niñasy niños en varios países europeos con la intención deprotegerlos de los conflictos bélicos. Los librosálbum que narran estos hechos históricos y lasexperiencias de los evacuados se enfrentan con elreto de filtrar los detalles traumáticos y atenuar suimpacto en los lectores. Debido a ello, autores eilustradores utilizan diversas estrategias literarias yvisuales para transferir la memoria histórica. En este
artículo, sostengo que el concepto de posmemoriapropuesto por Hirsch (The Generation), yampliado por otros críticos literarios, ayuda aidentificar estas estrategias y la forma en que searticulan en la narración de forma creativa y conuna mirada hacia el futuro. Como ejemplo,examino tres textos situados en distintos contextosgeográficos: The Lion and the Unicorn (El león y elunicornio) de Shirley Hughes, publicado en 1988;Tre in tutto (Tres en total) escrito por Davide Cali eilustrado por Isabella Labate del 2018 y Mexique,escrito por Maria José Ferrada e ilustrado por AnaPenyas en el 2017. Tomando como pautas lospuntos clave de “inflexión emocional” segúnKuusisto-Arponen (“Silence”), analizo las“estructuras postmemoriales a nivel de relato”(Milevski y Wetenkamp, “Introduction”) que sesostienen en marcadores históricos y fragmentosde memoria oral y textual, y dan pie a laproducción creativa que, según Hirsch, ayuda a
“re-encarnar y re-individualizar las estructuras másdistantes de la memoria cultural” (36). Concluyoque los tres libros extienden una invitación, adistintos niveles emotivos, a reflexiones quepueden fomentar una afiliación entre generaciones,pero también hacia quienes se encuentran ahoraen situaciones de desplazamiento forzado.

Thiếu vitamin D ở trẻ học đường đang là vấn đề có ý nghĩa sức khoẻ cộng đồng đồng tại Việt Nam, đặc biệt là trẻ suy dinh dưỡng (SDD) và nguy cơ SDD thấp còi. Một nghiên cứu cắt ngang được tiến hành năm 2018 trên 384 nữ học sinh 11-13 tuổi tại 6 xã của huyện Văn Chấn và Văn Yên, tỉnh Yên Bái, nhằm mô tả tình trạng thiếu Vitamin D. Kết quả cho thấy, tỷ lệ Vitamin D thiếu và thấp (25(OH)D <50 nmol/L) là 57%; tỷ lệ vitamin D thiếu, thấp và nguy cơ thấp (25(OH)D < 75 nmol/L) là 97,4%; nồng độ 25 (OH)D là 49,2 nmol/L, ở ngưỡng thiếu. Tỷ lệ vitamin D thiếu và thấp tại hai huyện Văn Yên và Văn Chấn lần lượt là 53,6% và 60,2%. Tỷ lệ vitamin D thấp, thiếu cao nhất ở dân tộc H’mông (61,9%), tiếp theo là dân tộc Kinh (56,1%), Tày (54,5%) và Dao (53,4%). Không có sự khác biệt có ý nghĩa thống kê về tỷ lệ vitamin D thiếu và thấp theo nhóm tuổi, giữa các huyện, xã và giữa các dân tộc (p > 0,05). Điều đó, cho thấy tình trạng vitamin D thiếu và thấp rất cao ở nữ học sinh nên cần có những giải pháp can thiệp kịp thời để cải thiện tình trạng thiếu Vitamin D cho nữ học sinh tại Yên Bái, cũng như vùng núi phía Bắc nói chung.

This paper presents a comprehensive comparative analysis of telecommunication regulation and policy frameworks in the United States (USA) and various African countries. Telecommunications play a pivotal role in socio-economic development, and the regulatory environment significantly influences the sector's performance. The study explores the historical evolution, regulatory bodies, and frameworks in both regions, aiming to identify commonalities, disparities, and the impact of regulatory approaches on market dynamics. The review begins by delineating the theoretical foundations of telecommunications regulation, emphasizing concepts such as market liberalization, competition, and regulatory governance. A historical overview traces the development of regulatory frameworks in the USA and Africa, shedding light on the contextual factors that shaped each region's approach. In examining telecommunications regulation in the USA, the paper delves into the roles and responsibilities of key regulatory bodies, notably the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The regulatory framework is scrutinized, with a focus on market liberalization, spectrum management, and licensing policies. Achievements and challenges within the US regulatory landscape are critically evaluated. Turning to Africa, the study explores the diverse regulatory approaches adopted by selected countries and the influence of regional organizations on policy formulation. Common challenges faced by African regulators, as well as unique contextual factors shaping the regulatory landscape, are discussed. The heart of the analysis lies in the comparative assessment of regulatory objectives and policy instruments between the USA and Africa. The study evaluates the alignment of these objectives with the socio-economic context of each region and assesses the effectiveness of policy instruments in achieving regulatory goals. Examining the impact on the telecommunications sector, the paper contrasts market structures, competition levels, and the role of regulation in fostering technological development. The analysis extends to the implications of regulatory frameworks on the deployment of emerging technologies, such as 5G. The paper summarizes key findings, highlighting patterns, trends, and lessons learned from the comparative analysis.
