Social progress occurs through crises – social, economic, ethnic, racial, confessional, etc. The cyclical processes of the transition of society to new civilizational levels are always accompanied by painful social conflicts for the population, the severity of which can be reduced by effective state policy. In general, it is a natural task of the state to reduce tension in society in order not to lead to revolutions and other destructive events that pose a danger not only to the population of the country, but also to the existence of the state itself. Russia's military aggression against Ukraine and the crisis caused by it have sharpened the need to understand possible factors of social conflicts, mechanisms for their prevention and methods of counteraction.
The article is aimed at defining the vectors of influence of the mechanisms of smart specialization of territories, network management and cooperation of communities on the State policy of foreseeing and programming the emergence of crises and conflicts in society.
The main aspects of introduction of smart specialization of territories, mechanisms of network management, advantages of cooperation of communities to ensure the State policy of counteraction to social conflicts are analyzed.
It is concluded that there are also new opportunities, forms, mechanisms for counteracting social conflicts, which introduce the course of the conflict in a controlled direction. Such opportunities are created by a combination in the state policy of network management of cooperation between communities and regions on the basis of smart specialization. The essence of this synergistic combination lies in the use of digital technologies (networks, platforms) in the process of decentralized digital governance by predictable social processes, programming of the future development of the country, region, community.

Peran perempuan dalam komunitas nelayan sangat signifikan, baik dalam aktivitas praproduksi, produksi, maupun pascaproduksi untuk meningkatkan pendapatan keluarga. Peran seperti itu telah dilakukan oleh perempuan di wilayah pesisir Kabupaten Demak, Jawa Tengah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis permasalahan yang dihadapi perempuan di wilayah pesisir Kabupaten Demak dalam menjalankan usahanya di sektor kelautan dan perikanan dan memahami strategi yang dilakukan baik secara individu maupun kelompok. Lokasi penelitian dilakukan di tiga desa nelayan di Kabupaten Demak, yaitu Desa Morodemak, Purworejo, dan Margolinduk. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif melalui fishcollabs sebagai alat bantu diagnosis partisipatif dengan pengumpulan data yang dilakukan melalui wawancara mendalam, focus group discussion (FGD), dan observasi lapangan. Penelitian menemukan bahwa ragam persoalan yang dihadapi perempuan di wilayah pesisir yaitu terkait dengan kondisi lingkungan dan stagnasi di bidang usaha perikanan. Stagnasi usaha yang dimaksud terkait dengan aspek pemasaran. Hal itu disebabkan oleh kurangnya kemampuan dalam menciptakan nilai tambah produk olahan, dan jaringan pemasaran yang dimiliki perempuan di wilayah tersebut, serta adanya permasalahan degradasi lingkungan permukiman. Ada beberapa opsi strategi yang penting untuk meningkatkan peran perempuan yaitu: (1) pelatihan peningkatan kapasitas usaha; (2) pelatihan pengemasan produk olahan dan jaringan pemasaran; dan (3) pelatihan pengelolaan bank sampah. Tittle: Strategies for Increasing Fisher’s Family Income Through the Role of Women: A Case Study in the Fishing Community of Demak, Central JavaThe role of women is very significant, in production and post-production in the fisheries sector, including the contribution of women in the coastal area of Demak Regency, Central Java. This paper aims to discuss the problems women face in coastal areas in running their businesses in the fisheries sector, as well as strategies to overcome these problems, individually and collectively. The study focuses on case studies of three fishing villages in Demak Regency: Morodemak Village, Purworejo Village and Margolinduk Village. This study uses a qualitative method through fish collabs as a participatory diagnostic tool, with data collection carried out through in-depth interviews, FGDs, and field observations. However, the research found various barriers women face in coastal areas, especially environmental conditions and stagnation in the fisheries business. The business stagnation is associated with the marketing aspect caused by the lack of added value for processed products and marketing networks owned by women, as well as the problem of environmental degradation in settlements. This article shows how training to increase business capacity, packaging of processed products and marketing networks, as well as waste bank management are essential strategic options for women.

Published: July 2023

Tea (Camellia sinensis L.) flower extract (TFE) is a new type of tea beverage. The aim of this study was to explore the possible function after intake of TFE for a fixed period. In the study, 200 mg/kg body weight (BW)/day (d) of TFE was given to mice for 14 weeks. The results showed that the levels of hepatic superoxide dismutase and reduced glutathione were increased but the formation of malondialdehyde was reduced, compared to the normal control (NC) group. Meanwhile, administration of TFE contributed to the prior number of colonic goblet cells (1,505 ± 124 vs. 1,162 ± 112, per mm2) and enhancement of colonic messenger RNA expression of mucin 2 and Claudin5. Additionally, TFE intervention modulated the composition and metabolic pathways of gut microbiota with an important role in dietary metabolism. Representatively, the relative abundance of genera Bacteroides, Prevotella, and Lachnospiracea_incertae_sedis, and the levels of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and immunoglobulin A were increased. Taken together, long-term intake of TFE could promote hepatic antioxidant and modulate gut ecological status. These results could provide a reference for the development of TFE as a functional beverage.

Authors: Bi Guanhua 
Published: July 2023

Scientific literature shows that cultivating self-efficacy is conducive to learner in-depth study of music, independent choices and perseverance in the field of music. However, most current research studies focus on self-efficacy in primary and secondary education, whereas the self-efficacy of prospective music teachers has been scarcely investigated. Considering the importance of self-efficacy in music activities of prospective music teachers, a study on the particularity of prospective music teachers’ self-efficacy has been initiated: the literature analysis method has been used, and a large number of literature sources related to self-efficacy and music education have been analysed. The following problem question is formulated: what is the particularity of self-efficacy in music education? The aim of this research is to analyse the concept of self-efficacy in music education. Research results show that self-efficacy determines the judgment of prospective music teachers on their learning, performance, and teaching abilities. Factors that affect the self-efficacy of prospective music teachers include mastery of experiences, vicarious experience, social persuasion, and emotional and psychological states.

Authors: Rauduvaitė Asta , Yao Zhiyu 
Published: July 2023

Emotional expression has been the focus of teachers and educational researchers, as it can result in an improvement in cognitive performance. In specific settings, personal and emotional experiences can provide a steppingstone to developmental and learning processes. Emotions significantly influence learner learning and play a crucial role in quality teaching, educational reform, and learner-teacher interaction. The inherent social and communicative nature of music would make group training an excellent tool for increasing the coordination of behaviour, affect, and mental states among children. This paper aims to explore the literature on various aspects of the concept of emotions in the context of music education with the main focus on opportunities for experiencing and expressing emotion in music education, learners' positive emotion experiences in music education, teaching to generate positive emotion outcomes, and the benefits of a greater emphasis on the emotions in music education. The results of theoretical analysis indicate that music education has a particularly positive effect on identifying emotions, emotion regulation, emotion recognition, improved learning, and self-expression.

Published: July 2023

A lot of people comprehend the necessity to acquire foreign languages and particularly foreign languages for their professional needs, but in most cases, their enthusiasm and motivation decrease and sometimes even disappear when hard work on a regular basis starts. The greatest advantages of the Design Thinking approach in teaching foreign languages are the development of foreign languages’ competencies and the making of the learners more motivated. The aim of the paper is to analyze the development outcomes of communicative competencies by applying the Design Thinking approach to teaching foreign languages to Bachelor level law students who acquire legal English and Bachelor level Information Technology students who study German as a second foreign language. The following methods were used while doing the research: survey data analysis of the foreign languages courses’ target audience and the qualitative analysis of the data content. A questionnaire of the students was developed and carried out, the answers were processed. The research experience was analyzed, the conclusions were drawn and the proposals for future work were worked out. The framework of learning was based on the Stanford method: empathizing, defining the problem, ideating, prototyping, and testing. The results of the study proved that the design thinking approach is effective as the learners solve many real-life problems. This encouraged collaboration and activity as they discussed simulated professional and real-life issues. The results also proved that the design thinking approach is recommended for learners with a higher level of foreign language proficiency. The pros and cons of the approach, based on the learners’ results and questionnaires have been summarized.

The results of the 3 best Latvian swimmers, males=36, and females-36, at each 100m distance (freestyle, breaststroke, backstroke, and butterfly) at championships in 2018, 2019, and 2020 have been analysed. The parameters for overcoming competitive distance: competitive result in the 100-meter distance; the start reaction time; time for the 15 meters mark; speed to the 15 meters mark; the time of the turn 5 meters up to the wall and 15 meters after the turn; underwater distance and time after the start and after turning; time of “clear” swimming. The obtained results were compared to the characteristics of overcoming the same competitive distance by the finalists of the European Championship 2016. As a result of comparative analysis, statistically, significant differences were found in such parameters of competitive activity as the overall result, overcoming of starting and turning parts, and the distance covered under water after the turn and start. Statistically significant differences were not found in the reaction time to the start signal and in the speed of “clear” swimming. The comparative analysis of the performance characteristics of the European Championships finalists showed possibilities for further improvements of Latvian swimmers. The aim: is to determine the performance parameters of the Latvian best swimmers and compare them with the same parameters of the finalists of the European Championship 2016.
