LITERARY CONFLICT BETWEEN M.H. PANHWAR AND DR. N.A. BALOCH: AN ARCHIVAL RESEARCH
Authors: Thaheem Aijaz , Sarwar Naseem , Bhutto Mumtaz 
Published: May 2023

The purpose of this study was to offer a brief biography of Mr. M.H. Panhwar and Dr. Nabi Bux Khan Baloch, as well as their work in Sindhological studies along with a brief description of their literary differences on the origin of Sindhi language and history. A systematic literature review methodology was used to explore the contribution and contradiction of both the scholars. The study found that both the scholars were renowned researchers who worked in the fields of history, archaeology, sociology, literature, and language. Both were up-to-dated academicians, but their scholarly interests in history, archaeology, language, and literature were diametrically opposed. The study revealed that M.H. Panhwar was a rigorous researcher who conducted studies using scientific techniques and with the assistance of archaeological and geographical evidence. The study further explored that Dr. N. A. Baloch was a folklorist, educationist and extensive writer whose ideological hypotheses were primarily based on mythology and preserved folk literature.
THE DREAD OF AI REPLACEMENT OF HUMANS REPRESENTED IN MACHINES LIKE ME
Authors: Xu Yuan , Song Yanfang 
Published: May 2023

The rapid progress of AI technology prompts British novelists to speculate what a technologically advanced Britain will be like: a utopia or a dystopia? Or somewhere in between? Ian McEwan shows his concern over these questions in Machines Like Me (2019). It is suggested that this novel mainly reveals people’s technophobia and presents a techno-dystopian world, for which many people are ill-prepared. Technophobia and techno-dystopia represented in the selected novel echo the debates among the Neo-Luddites, especially the thoughts of Stephen L. Talbott. From the theoretical angle of Neo-Luddism, the present study aims to explore people’s multifaceted technophobia and the features of techno-dystopia in Machines Like Me, so as to disclose people’s values behind their attitudes to technological advancements. Technophobia as depicted in this novel basically includes people’s dread of AI replacement of humans. Moreover, the world presented in the novel is characteristic of a techno-dystopia: the technological replacement of humans results in people’s obsolete status and poses security risks to human beings. The objective of the research is to arouse people’s awareness about adverse technological impacts and provide some insights into how to handle the tension between technophobia and technological development in the real world. The study concluded that to some degree, such technophobia and techno-dystopia disillusion technophiles who fervently believe that advances in technology will bring about a utopia or at least help to fulfill a utopian ideal. Serving as a warning alarm for the dystopian future, this novel counters cyber-hype in contemporary society and reflects the real world of profit-fueled technology.
Claude Lévi-Strauss o urbánnom priestore
Authors: Marcelli Miroslav 
Published: May 2023

The study focuses on the subject that Lévi-Strauss never devoted himself to in a systematic way. The essence of his view on the urban space can be found in few pages of his travel book Tristes Tropiques (English version is entitled World on the Wane). In spite of this fact, the study tries to show that the opinions on the urban space delivered in this work are important for us to under stand the basis of his method, as well as to get closer to the places where his thinking opens to the new perspectives of the anthropological studies. When analyzing these opinions, we find that on the one hand they confirm the primary trend of his method, which is the orientation towards unconscious models; on the other hand, however, we see the role of collective conscience in a new light. Similarly, we will have to correct the idea about the relation between structures and their demographic substance. In his work La Pensée sauvage (The Savage Mind) Lévi-Srauss presented this relationship as a conflict of two sides, from which the second one, the demographic substance always ends up pre dominating: it decomposes the structural organizations and leads the community to the historical time. Lévi-Strauss’ reflections about the city indicate that the demographical substance could have a different function in his thinking. Thanks to the concentration of a big amount of people, a city can in its organization of space display the unconscious trends of mind. The last part of the study aims to discover in Lévi-Strauss’ opinions on the South American cities the indication of what could be called the anthropology of present or even future times.
Strukturální antropologie a „konec člověka“
Authors: Švec Ondřej 
Published: May 2023

According to the traditional interpretation, Lévi-Strauss’ structural anthropology deposes the concept of man and the notion of human nature from its central place in human and social sciences. While it’s necessary to acknowledge Lévi-Strauss’ distance vis-à-vis all philosophy based on intentionality, experience and consciousness of subject, we argue that the most interesting purpose of the structural anthropology lies elsewhere. Not only Lévi-Strauss never declared himself being part of anti-humanism movement, but most of all, his famous polemics with Sartre at the end of La Pensée sauvage should be interpreted as part of his fight against ethnocentrism. The project of “dissolving the man” can be thus read as deconstructing the idea that western man makes of himself in the light of ethnological findings about universal structures orchestrating all human societies. We further show that the notion of subject survived its very death announced by the most radical structuralist thinkers and that structural method could be effectively employed in order to study different techniques and modes of subjectivation, revealing that “becoming subject” is a process structured by our language, symbolic universe and ethical teleology.
ERKEN CUMHURİYET DÖNEMİ’NDE BİR TURİSTİK MEKÂN PROJESİ: ABANT GÖLÜ(1923-1950)
Authors: KARA Serdar 
Published: May 2023

Bolu’nun en bilinen turistik mekânlarından olan Abant Gölü’nün ünü günümüzde tüm Türkiye’ye yayılmış ve Abant, şehrin bir sembolü haline gelmiştir. 1988’de tabiat parkı, 2022 yılında ise milli park olmuş, Bolu’daki tek üniversiteye adını vermiştir.
1919 yılında Reşat Aker tarafından keşfedilinceye kadar yalnızca civar köyler tarafından biliniyordu. Abant, 1920’li yıllarda önce Bolulular tarafından tanındı. 1930’lu yıllardan itibaren ulusal basında güzelliğinden bahsedilen bir yer oldu. Atatürk’ün 1934 yılında Bolu’yu ziyareti sırasında Abant’a ilgi göstermesinin ardından bölgeye yönelik girişimler daha ileri boyuta taşınmıştır. Bu tarihten itibaren Abant Gölü’nün turistik bir mekân haline dönüştürülmesine çalışmalar hız kazanmıştır. Bu çalışmada ilk olarak turizm kavramının tarihsel gelişimine ve Osmanlı’dan Cumhuriyet’e miras kalan turizm anlayışına kısaca değinilmiş daha sonra Abant Gölü’nün ulusal bir figür haline getirilmesine yönelik giderek artan çabalar tarihsel süreç içerisinde ele alınmıştır. Dönemin basınına, kimi hatıralara ve belgelere yansıyan bütün bu çabaların arka planında yatan düşünce dünyası anlaşılmaya çalışılmıştır. Ayrıca tüm bu girişimlerin toplumda ne ölçüde karşılık bulduğu araştırılmıştır. Bu projenin başarılı ve başarısız olduğu noktalar değerlendirilmiştir.
ÇARLIK RUSYA’SINA ALMAN GÖÇÜ VE SOVYETLER BİRLİĞİ DÖNEMİNDE ÜLKEDE YAŞAYAN ALMANLARIN NÜFUS SAYIMLARINA GÖRE DURUMU
Authors: GÜNDOĞDU Murat 
Published: May 2023

Bu çalışmada, Sovyetler Birliği’nin kozmopolit yapısının bir parçası olan Rusya Almanları’nın Sovyetler Birliği’ndeki nüfusu incelenmiştir. Nüfus sayım sonuçlarında, SSCB ve Almanların toplam nüfusu, cinsiyete ve yerleşim yerlerine göre dağılımları detaylı tablolar halinde verilmiştir. Çalışmanın ana kaynağını Sovyetler Birliği’nde yapılan nüfus sayım sonuçları oluşturmaktadır. Bu nüfus sayımlarının birinci el kaynak olması çalışmaya önem katmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Rusya’da yaşayan Rusya Almanlarının demografik yapısını nüfus sayım sonuçları üzerinden incelemektir. Bu bağlamda, nüfus hareketliliğini etkileyen göç ve savaş vb. gibi nedenler üzerine durulmuştur.
Çalışmanın sonucunda, Sovyetler Birliği’nde yaşayan Rusya Almanlarının ülkede belirli dönemler göçlere ve baskılara tabi tutulduğu, buna rağmen nüfusunun her nüfus sayımında az da olsa artış gösterdiği gözlemlenmiştir. Ayrıca ülkede Alman nüfusunun yapılan göçler sonucunda batıdan doğuya doğru artış gösterdiği ve kadın nüfusun erkek nüfustan daha fazla olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu artışta, çalışma kamplarına gönderilen erkeklerin kötü şartlarda yaşaması ve savaşın getirdiği ölüm, erkek nüfusunun azalmasında etkili olmuştur. Diğer taraftan 1964 yılında, 1941 yılı sürgün kararı ve hükümlerinin iptal edilmesiyle birlikte Alman nüfusunun ülkenin batı kısımlarına doğru göç ettikleri gözlemlenmiştir. Son olarak, Alman nüfusun 1970 yılı ve sonrasında en fazla Sovyet Kazakistanı’nda en az nüfusun ise Sovyet Ermenistanı’nda olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

Application of Asset Pricing Model in the determination of Public-Private Partnership
Authors: Meer Rujaib Naseem 
Published: May 2023

The study is to gain a better understanding of how the asset pricing model interacts with Public Private Partnership (PPP) in the larger domain of monetary policy. We employ monetary policy components that include a Panel least square test, and we apply it to the panel data set that contains 131 countries and 15 years of data on investment in the energy sector. According to the findings, the Policy rate is a critical factor in determining the minimum annual required rate of return that an investor earns on their investment. The viability gap refers to the difference between the actual return on investment from a public-private partnership project and the required rate of return of investors that is calculated by using the capital asset pricing model. This study benefits governments, private firms, and ultimately the public of a country. The paper shows how monetary policy can use to fill the issue of viability gaps in the case of public-private partnership investment projects.

Authors: Bánkuti Sandra Mara Schiavi , Guimarães Amanda Ferreira , Culti Maria Nezilda , Cezar Arthur de Canini , Pinto Gheysa Julio 
Published: May 2023

Commercialization has been highlighted as one the main obstacles for farmers in Brazil. Public policies have encouraged smallholder farmers to increase commercialization through institutional markets, named National School Feeding Program (PNAE) and Food Acquisition Program (PAA). The aim of this paper is to analyze commercialization of agri-food products by smallholder farmers in Paraná, Brazil, including PNAE and PAA programs. Empirical research comprised primary data from interviews with 27 smallholders in Paiçandu, Paraná. Results indicated that most farmers participate individually of PNAE and PAA, and main products are vegetables and processed products. Main advantages of PAA and PNAE are the assurance of sale, followed by prices. Main difficulties concern scale and assurance of supply, besides relative prices, especially for those accessing short channels. Collective actions would help farmers to overcome difficulties, and create opportunities for developing other channels, such as collective street markets

Tafsir Ayat-Ayat Neurosains Pendidikan Islam: Telaah Tafsir Salman atas Konsep Nashiyah dalam Surat Al-Alaq
Authors: Asrini Vivi Indri , Suyadi Suyadi 
Published: May 2023

Perkembangan tafsir dari masa ke masa mengalami perkembangan, sebab para mufasir selalu memiliki pandangan tentang penafsiran Al-Qur’an, salah satu dalam surat Al-Alaq tentang Nasiyah yang membahas tentang otak, maka dari itu artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis konsep Nasiyah dalam Tafsir Salman yang terdapat dalam QS. Al-Alaq ayat [96]: 15-16. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode kualitatif dan menggunakan pendekataan kepustakaan (library research). Teknik pengumpulan data melalui dokumentasi dan pengumpulan data-data yang berkaitan dengan penelitian yang dilakukan, sedangkan teknik analisis data dilakukan secara hermeneutik. Hasil dari penelitian ini yakni mengargumentasikan bahwa istilah kata dari Nasiyah telah muncul sejak lama sebelum Al-Qur’an diturunkan sedangkan istilah dari otak baru muncul pada abad ke-19. Maka dari itu, tidak mengherankan jika interpretasi klasik belum menggunakan pendekatan ilmu saraf (neurosaintifik) untuk memahami Nasiyah dan neurosains memiliki sejarah ilmiah yang begitu panjang, terutama dalam tradisi pemikiran Islam baik secara klasik maupun pemikiran Islam secara modern. Mengingat konsep-konsep pendidikan Islam yang perlu mendapatkan perhatian khusus yang bersifat normatif dalam wilayah metafisik ketuhanan, yang belum berpijak pada bidang keilmuan sehingga masih sulit untuk diimplementasikan ke ranah pragmatis amalyyah.

Published: May 2023

Objective: To compare the loss of proteins with high and low flux hemodialysis membranes.
Study Design: Cross-sectional analytical study.
Place and Duration of Study: Department of Nephrology, Pak Emirates Military Hospital, Rawalpindi Pakistan, from Nov 2019 to Feb 2020.
Methodology: This study was conducted on patients with end-stage renal disease on maintenance haemodialysis. We excluded patients on haemodialysis for less than one month, those with poor compliance to hemodialysis, those undergoing hemodialysis for less than four hours per session and unwilling patients. Patients were divided into two groups: one was dialyzed with high flux membranes, whereas low flux membranes were used for the other group. Dialysate samples were collected during the first hour and then during the last hour of each haemodialysis session to estimate protein losses in each group.
Results: Data were recorded during 133 hemodialysis sessions, the patients underwent. There were 22 patients, including 12 (54.55%) males, having a mean age of 46.45±13.99 years. Most patients (17, 77.27%) were on twice-a-week dialysis, whereas the rest were dialyzed thrice weekly. Protein loss was 0.45± 0.23g/L with low flux membranes and 1.20±0.60g/L with high flux membranes. This difference was statistically significant (p= <0.001).
Conclusion: High flux dialysis membranes are associated with greater protein loss during hemodialysis.

Objective: To determine the diagnostic accuracy of Anti-Mullerian Hormone in Polycystic ovary syndrome detection, keeping Rotterdam criteria as a gold standard.
Study Design: Cross-sectional study.
Place and Duration of Study: Armed Forces Institute of Pathology, Rawalpindi and Rehman Medical Institute, (RMI)Peshawar, Pakistan from Jul 2018 to Jun 2019.
Methodology: The study included one hundred and forty clinically suspected patients of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) of 16-45 years of age. Blood samples were analyzed for serum Anti-Mullerian Hormone analysis on Architect ci 8200 System using the Chemiluminescent immunoassay technique. AMH was considered positive for Polycystic ovary syndrome at a threshold of 4.9ng/ml. In addition, AMH's diagnostic accuracy was evaluated, considering the Rotterdam criteria of PCOS as a gold standard.
Results: The mean age and mean BMI of the study subjects were 26.73±5.07 years and 30.43±4.83kg/m2, respectively. The mean follicle-stimulating and Luteinizing hormones were 4.34±0.68mIU/ml and 5.24±1.43mIU/ml, respectively. The mean Anti-Mullerian hormone of all patients was 7.79±4.62ng/ml. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), the likelihood ratio of a positive test (LR+) and Likelihood ratio of a Negative Test (LR-) of AntiMullerian hormone were 91.8%, 74.7%, 73.7%, 92.2%, 3.63%, 0.11%, respectively and overall diagnostic accuracy was 82.1%.
Conclusion: Anti-Mullerian hormone can effectively determine the existence of Polycystic ovary syndrome among women of reproductive age and serve as a sensitive diagnostic tool for Polycystic ovary syndrome.
