Authors: Sharma Manu , Luthra Sunil , Joshi Sudhanshu , Kumar Anil 
Published: April 2022

PurposeThe study aims to examine the influence of Sustainable Human Resource Management (SHRM) practices and Industry 4.0 Technologies (I4Te) adoption on the Employability Skills (ES) of the employees. The study has undertaken four major SHRM practices – Training (TR), Flexibility (FL), Employee Participation (EP) and Employee Empowerment (EE) to measure its impact on the ES along with I4Te.Design/methodology/approachA survey approach method was designed on the identified constructs from existing literature based on SHRM, I4Te and ES. The survey resulted into 198 valid responses. The study used confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modelling (SEM) using SPSS 25.0 and AMOS 25.0 for constructs validation and hypothesis testing.FindingsThe current study reveals that all the four SHRM practices (TR, FL, EP and EE) along with I4Te directly influence ES in the organisation. The I4Te along with the SHRM practices may bring enhancement in the skills and competencies of the employees that is the requirement of future organisations.Practical implicationsConsidering the results, the SHRM practices aligned with I4Te may directly influence the employee's ES including core skills, IT skills and personal attributes. The SHRM practices in the organisation will enhance the opportunities for the employees and bring long-term association with the employees.Social implicationsFor the development of the economy and the individual, the SHRM practices need to conduct themselves in more socially responsible ways along with the I4Te to enhance the ES of the employees. The individual development will bring sustainable behavioural changes in the employees.Originality/valueThere has been no research conducted on exploring SHRM, I4Te and ES together. This is the pioneer in the HRM fields that explores the interrelationships and influence amongst the five constructs undertaken in the study.

Published: April 2022

Purpose
This study aims to examine the extent of corporate image of mobile telecommunication company on service quality and price fairness, which subsequently play important roles in influencing customer satisfaction and loyalty.

Design/methodology/approach
A questionnaire was administered to subscribers of mobile service providers in Brunei. The proposed research model was tested using structural equation modeling to estimate the relationships between corporate image, service quality, price fairness, customer satisfaction and loyalty.

Findings
The results indicated that favorable corporate image positively affects network quality, customer support and price fairness, which, in turn, lead to formation of customer satisfaction and customer loyalty.

Originality/value
This study demonstrates the magnitude of corporate image as an enabler of market dominance, recognizing that superior corporate image can become a first mover advantage and competitive advantage, which explains the high customer retention of a mobile telecommunication company. The effects of corporate image as a first mover advantage have not been highlighted in the literature of first mover advantage of mobile telecommunication; therefore, this study provides a new insight in this study area.
Addressing homelessness with the “human ecology economics” framework: the role of the business community in California
Authors: Allen Roy Evan , Burns Caroline , Subrahmanyan Saroja 
Published: April 2022

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to provide a human ecology economics (HEE) framework for understanding and addressing homelessness, especially as it exists in California and the San Francisco Bay Area. The role of business and private “stakeholders of the homeless” is emphasized.Design/methodology/approachThe HEE approach relies on evolutionary and complex systems processes, and it incorporates interdisciplinary material from the humanities. Within HEE, an early-stage exploratory research method is used. In-depth interviews with 16 long-term residents who are also managers in various organizations help to identify private-sector perceptions including how businesses can engage with and support the homeless.FindingsIn the current balance between needed supplies of “production capital,” which includes affordable housing, shelter beds, food, clothing, medical supplies and so on and “transaction capital,” which is an interacting mix of social capital, informational capital and financial capital, the authors find that the business community needs to pay greater attention to deficits in “transaction capital.”Research limitations/implicationsIt is beyond the scope of this paper, and beyond the current ability of complex system modeling, to prioritize the best interventions across various types of homeless communities. However, for early-stage research, the authors have provided a useful ontology of the human ecology of homelessness that might inform further research and policy initiatives. Follow-on research might then investigate, with more rigorous methods, the narrower causalities between subcomponents of one’s ontology.Originality/valueScholars, policymakers and business community activists might appreciate the more comprehensive and accessible interdisciplinary framework for understanding the causes and possible responses to homelessness.
Tribological characterizations of bio-polymer based ecofriendly copper-free brake friction composites
Authors: G. Sathyamoorthy , R. Vijay , D. Lenin Singaravelu 
Published: April 2022

Purpose
This study aims to discuss the impact of using bio-polymer (kraft lignin) in the formulation of passenger vehicle disc brake pads (as a substitute for cashew nutshell liquid [CNSL]-based friction dust) and investigate the characteristics of the pads.

Design/methodology/approach
Within the scope of this investigation, three different brake pads were generated by altering the biopolymer-lignin content in conjunction with the friction dust from CNSL without modifying the other components. The brake pads were created in accordance with industry-standard practices. Industrial standards were used to evaluate the newly created brake pad’s thermal, physical and mechanical qualities. The tribological properties of the materials were determined using a full-scale inertia brake dynamometer. The scanning electron microscope examined the worn surfaces in conjunction with elemental mapping.

Findings
The test findings suggest that the brake pads filled with biopolymer-lignin and CNSL-based friction dust (as a partial replacement 50%) exhibited excellent thermal, physical, mechanical characteristics, as well as steady friction and low wear rate.

Originality/value
A bio-polymer (kraft lignin) in friction composites has the potential to produce eco-friendly brake pads and improve the tribological performance of its copper free-composition, which might be used to replace CNSL-based friction dust in friction composites by addressing the issues raised in this work.
Lime in Cuenca (Ecuador): from patrimonial to matrilineal
Authors: Aguirre Ullauri María del Cisne , Contreras-Escandón Christian Hernán 
Published: April 2022

PurposeThrough the case of Blanca Sinchi, the following analysis presents valuation criteria that have resulted in the invisibility of social actors and cultural patrimony (cultural heritage) elements, and some contradictions in their acknowledgment process. In addition, the paper explains how architecture, among other historic assets, has made women and their contributions invisible.Design/methodology/approachBibliographic analysis and semi-structured interviews were carried out to theorize about the thermodynamic system of lime to propose a matri-lineal system category and expand the understanding of the participation of women in the receipt, management and transmission of what is called patrimony.FindingsIn heritage places, such as Cuenca (Ecuador), cultural richness extends from the Historic Center to the rest of the territory and its actors. However, there are intrinsic elements, such as unknown, but fundamental, oral or family traditions associated with the role of women. The case of Blanca Sinchi and lime is evidence of this, as it shows the typical scenario affected by gender and by disparate power dynamics that do not consider desirable attributes (authenticity, integrity, identity, bequest, option, existence, among others) in the conservation of architectural patrimony. A deep redefinition process, or even a change in the valuation system, is needed. Also, the history behind built heritage items must be explored to find the contributions made by women.Originality/valueProposing a matri-lineal system category to expand the understanding of the participation of women in the receipt, management and transmission of what is called patrimony, allows redefining and rewriting local and global history, acknowledging the role of women. In this way, the proposal questions not only the hegemony of the term “cultural patrimony” pigeonholed in paternal legacy but also the term “cultural heritage” as a synonym and framework that, while expanding material values, it does not effectively include, at least for Ibero-Romance language territories, the broad set of tangible and intangible values, as well as the know-how and skills of artisans.
Too lengthy and too low: an analysis of the sanctions imposed by Argentina’s Financial Information Unit between 2016 and 2019
Authors: Argibay Molina Juan Agustin 
Published: April 2022

Purpose
This paper aims to evaluate how Argentina’s Financial Information Unit (Unidad de Información Financiera, FIU) has responded after detecting noncompliance with money laundering regulations. Specifically, it identifies the main lessons that can be drawn from analyzing the sanctions that the FIU imposed between 2016 and 2019.

Design/methodology/approach
The issues that this article outlines suggest the need for a substantial rethinking of Argentina’s anti-money laundering regulations. Based on an analysis of the size of sanctions and the time taken to impose them, the study suggests that the regulatory framework in Argentina fails to comply with the international standards that require the imposition of effective, proportionate and dissuasive sanctions.

Findings
This analysis suggests that there are serious issues regarding the regulation of the sanctions that Argentina’s FIU is responsible for imposing. Specifically, the way the exact amount of each fine is determined urgently needs to be redesigned. In other words, the system for establishing fines needs to take the fluctuations that are typical of Argentina’s economy into account.

Originality/value
This paper has demonstrated that it is vital for the country to review its regulatory framework for the prevention of money laundering and to effectively apply sanctions when noncompliance is detected. A successful approach to both objectives will contribute to generate and align incentives to improve compliance levels and to fulfill international standards.
Private-label grocery buyers’ donation intentions and trust in CRM campaigns: an empirical analysis by employing social identity theory
Authors: Thomas Sujo , Patel Ritesh , Bhatt Viral 
Published: April 2022

PurposeBusinesses embark on corporate social responsibility initiatives such as cause-related marketing (CRM) as a strategy to enhance behavioural intentions. This study was undertaken due to the limited ability of the existing CRM literature to directly examine whether and how consumers’ trust affects the donation intention, specifically in the private-label grocery retailing context. This study employs social identity theory as a unified theory to explain the variables adopted and contributes to the body of knowledge on CRM-linked private-label consumption.Design/methodology/approachThis study used SPSS 25 and AMOS to analyse the quantitative data. The structural equation modelling was adopted to test moderation and mediation effect and the sample consisted of 456 private-label grocery shoppers.FindingsThe findings of this study established that general trust in CRM alone would not translate into triggering donation intentions for CRM private-label brands and further validates the mediating role of trust in retailers’ CRM campaigns (TRCC) in shaping monetary donation intentions. Moreover, religious values confirmed a significant moderating role while translating TRCC to donation intention.Research limitations/implicationsThe limitation of this study was the restricted focus on private labels. This research may be limited to only one private-label packaged product but may focus on other private-label products in future research.Practical implicationsThis study has practical significance for advertising managers in designing and implementing campaigns. More specifically, it establishes that consumers who trust the CRM phenomenon and seek private-label products associated with CRM campaigns are likely to provide monetary donations towards non-profit organization (NPOs).Originality/valueThis information will help practitioners, including grocery retailers, NPO managers and advertising professionals, design effective CRM campaigns for private-label products by understanding the fundamental relationship between trust in CRM campaigns and monetary donation intentions.

SummaryCoastal waters are a major source of marine methane to the atmosphere. Particularly high concentrations of this potent greenhouse gas are found in anoxic waters, but it remains unclear if and to what extent anaerobic methanotrophs mitigate the methane flux. Here we investigate the long‐term dynamics in methanotrophic activity and the methanotroph community in the coastal oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) of Golfo Dulce, Costa Rica, combining biogeochemical analyses, experimental incubations and 16S rRNA gene sequencing over 3 consecutive years. Our results demonstrate a stable redox zonation across the years with high concentrations of methane (up to 1.7 μmol L−1) in anoxic bottom waters. However, we also measured high activities of anaerobic methane oxidation in the OMZ core (rate constant, k, averaging 30 yr−1 in 2018 and 8 yr−1 in 2019–2020). The OPU3 and Deep Sea‐1 clades of the Methylococcales were implicated as conveyors of the activity, peaking in relative abundance 5–25 m below the oxic–anoxic interface and in the deep anoxic water respectively. Although their genetic capacity for anaerobic methane oxidation remains unexplored, their sustained high relative abundance indicates an adaptation of these clades to the anoxic, methane‐rich OMZ environment, allowing them to play major roles in mitigating methane fluxes.

SummaryFungi can be found in almost all ecosystems. Some of them can even survive in harsh, anthropogenically transformed environments, such as post‐industrial soils. In order to verify how the soil fungal diversity may be changed by pollution, two soil samples from each of the 28 post‐industrial sites were collected. Each soil sample was characterized in terms of concentration of heavy metals and petroleum derivatives. To identify soil fungal communities, fungal internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) amplicon was sequenced for each sample using Illumina MiSeq platform. There were significant differences in the community structure and taxonomic diversity among the analysed samples. The highest taxon richness and evenness were observed in the non‐polluted sites, and lower numbers of taxa were identified in multi‐polluted soils. The presence of monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, gasoline and mineral oil was determined as the factors driving the differences in the mycobiome. Furthermore, in the culture‐based selection experiment, two main groups of fungi growing on polluted media were identified – generalists able to live in the presence of pollution, and specialists adapted to the usage of BTEX as a sole source of energy. Our selection experiment proved that it is long‐term soil contamination that shapes the community, rather than temporary addition of pollutant.

SummaryThe consequences of soils exposed to hydraulic fracturing (HF) return fluid, often collectively termed flowback and produced water (FPW), are poorly understood, even though soils are a common receptor of FPW spills. Here, we investigate the impacts on soil microbiota exposed to FPW collected from the Montney Formation of western Canada. We measured soil respiration, microbial community structure and functional potentials under FPW exposure across a range of concentrations, exposure time and soil types (luvisol and chernozem). We find that soil type governs microbial community response upon FPW exposure. Within each soil, FPW exposure led to reduced biotic soil respiration, and shifted microbial community structure and functional potentials. We detect substantially higher species richness and more unique functional genes in FPW‐exposed soils than in FPW‐unexposed soils, with metagenome‐assembled genomes (e.g. Marinobacter persicus) from luvisol soil exposed to concentrated FPW being most similar to genomes from HF/FPW sites. Our data demonstrate the complex impacts of microbial communities following FPW exposure and highlight the site‐specific effects in evaluation of spills and agricultural reuse of FPW on the normal soil functions.
Dominance of coniferous and broadleaved trees drives bacterial associations with boreal feather mosses

Published: April 2022

SummaryThe composition of ecologically important moss‐associated bacterial communities seems to be mainly driven by host species but may also be shaped by environmental conditions related with tree dominance. The moss phyllosphere has been studied in coniferous forests while broadleaf forests remain understudied. To determine if host species or environmental conditions defined by tree dominance drives the bacterial diversity in the moss phyllosphere, we used 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing to quantify changes in bacterial communities as a function of host species (Pleurozium schreberi and Ptilium crista‐castrensis) and forest type (coniferous black spruce versus deciduous broadleaf trembling aspen) in eastern Canada. The overall composition of moss phyllosphere was defined by the interaction of both factors, though most of the bacterial phyla were determined by a strong effect of forest type. Bacterial α‐diversity was highest in spruce forests, while there was greater turnover (β‐diversity) and higher γ‐diversity in aspen forests. Unexpectedly, Cyanobacteria were much more relatively abundant in aspen than in spruce forests, with the cyanobacteria family Nostocaceae differing the most between forest types. Our results advance the understanding of moss‐associated microbial communities among coniferous and broadleaf deciduous forests, which are important with the increasing changes in tree dominance in the boreal system.
Schreber: an approach to soul androgyny
Authors: Fuentes Lygia Aride 
Published: April 2022

AbstractNowadays Jungian analysts are invited to understand what has been presenting as new emerging sexualities. Although we cannot find a theory of homosexuality in Jung’s work, we will find references to this issue in clinical situations, interpretation of dreams, as well as his theory of anima and animus. Jung’s theoretical perspective distinguishes sex and gender, anticipating contemporary gender issues and making the approach to the psyche even more complex. Jung was ahead of his time. Contemporary authors present critical reflection on the bases of innatism or culturalism as expressions of new sexualities. The paper present fragments of clinical situations and images, for a reflection on coniunctio of opposites, with their telos and psychic force, in the direction of soul androgyny. It presents a Jungian contribution to Memoirs of My Nervous Illness by Daniel Paul Schreber. Freud’s Schreber Case, with his psychopathological interpretation related to paranoia and homosexuality, seems reductive and contrasts with the Jungian approach that introduces a synthetic‐hermeneutic analysis.
At the train station: the self, suspended in collective trauma. Symbolic analysis with victims of childhood trauma caused by state terrorism
Authors: Fleischer Karin 
Published: April 2022

AbstractThis paper explores the consequences of a collective trauma on the individual psyche. The author aims to show the difficulties emerging in the process of working through an early trauma when the personal wound is merged with a family and cultural trauma. Referencing clinical dream material, the author also highlights the importance of including the objective and the subjective levels of analysis, because if the clinical work is solely focused upon the intrapsychic subjective dimension, this may tend to perpetuate the traumatic cycle based on the original denial. This process requires from the analyst sensitivity and receptivity to accept the reality of the collective trauma with all its overwhelming affects, without losing the capacity for imagination; thus, the horror of the non‐representable may gradually find – within the analytic dyad – a symbolic way to be retrieved, metabolized, and elaborated.
Human: true or false? Man, myth and cinema
Authors: Coelho Marcia Moura 
Published: April 2022

AbstractThe fear of robots is recurrent in science fiction literature and cinema. However, I see the robotization of humans in contemporary society is increasing. Identity crisis, automation, dehumanization: what distinguishes human from android? The film Blade Runner, from Ridley Scott (1982), points out aspects of identity, memory, empathy and bond, escaping the Manichean dualism between humans and androids, provoking questions about society and the human condition.The work of art fulfills a visionary function when it captures and translates to the collective aspects of the spirit of the time, transposing into questions and new forms, anticipating and problematizing themes, foreseeing possible solutions, mobilizing the collective conscience.This article presents an analysis based on some thematic snippets from Blade Runner and tries to answer the questions: which mythical themes emerging from the collective consciousness take shape in this classic film? How does the work update the myth?
