Kolonialisierung als Lernprozess. Portugiesen und Holländer im Asienhandel des 16. und 17. Jahrhunderts
Creators: name: Rösel, Jakob
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: The paper starts by emphasizing three characteristics of colonial trade: It is Europeans who systematically explore and open a new trade route to Asia; they operate in and they monopolize a new space for transport and trade - the oceans; this necessitates the development of a new means of transport, the self-reliant and well-armed ship, fitted out for expeditions and trade ventures. But in order to establish such an exclusively European, exclusively sea-borne and exclusively expedition-based trade empire, both the Dutch and the Portuguese had to learn to master two challenges. They had to solve the technical problems resulting from the extreme distances which their ships had to cover. They had to solve the economic problems accruing from the extraordinarily high transportation costs, limited storage space and unpredictable markets. It was the Dutch Trading Company, the VOC, which first succeeded in mastering these two sets of problems: on the basis of a new form of trade organisation, monopoly trade, it contrived to make the new trade route profitable.

Arbeitsmigration in Singapur. Aktuelle Literatur und Perspektiven der Forschung
Creators: name: Jordan, Rolf
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2017

description: With some 450,000 foreigners among its labour force the city-state of Singapore is one of the most important labour importers in Southeast Asia today. Singapore's foreign labour force is characterised by a bi-polar structure with foreign workers only in the highest and the lowest strata of the labour market. This structure coincides with a migration policy that is highly restrictive with regard to the recruitment of foreign low-skilled workers while at the same time favouring the inflow of foreign experts. This paper examines the current state of the scientific debate on the issue of labour migration in Singapore and points to a number of questions still to be discussed within this field of research. Changing labour migration flows have led to a series of research papers focussing on topics such as the living and working conditions of female migrant workers in Singapore and the question of citizenship and transnationalism. But there is still a lack of research on issues such as the living and working conditions of the large number of foreign construction workers or the connection between the influx of a large number of foreign professionals and the creation of more and more low-end jobs for foreign workers in the service sector within the Global City of Singapore.

Information and communication literacy for general practitioners
Creators: name: Wise, Lisa
name: Pearce, Chris
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: General practice is now reliant on information technology to function. Moreover it is assumed that general practitioners (GPs) have appropriate information and communication technology (ICT) literacy to utilise the required technology. Furthermore, online learning programs offer the opportunity to provide continuing medical education (CME) to GPs, and although it is implicit in the online approach to CME, it is not clear that ICT literacy suitable for online study will translate into appropriate ICT literacy for professional practice. We examine these propositions by reviewing the computer skills of incoming medical students and practising GPs, by identifying tasks requiring use of ICT in general practice, and by exploring the level of ICT literacy suggested by those tasks. We recommend that ICT literacy be addressed specifically within the medical undergraduate curriculum focusing on how ICT is deployed in general practice with CME courses to supplement and extend that basic ICT literacy.

Year: 2024

description: In recent years, Instant Messaging (IM) has become one of the most growing online communities, reaching millions of users at home and at work worldwide. As the community expands, assuming multiple identities (MID) becomes a common behaviour of the IM members. This paper reports our ongoing research on the support for MID. Our study used an online survey and face-to-face interviews to identify user needs in supporting MID in IM. The study has identified five themes including single nickname, multiple avatars, multiple statuses, boundary control and interoperability. Reflecting on these themes, we propose a model of MID support in IM.

description: This factsheet was published by nova-Institut GmbH as task leader for communication and dissemination in the Horizon Europe project WaterProof (https://waterproof-project.eu/).

The factsheet informs on Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU) which describes a diverse set of technologies that allow for the capture and use of carbon dioxide (CO₂) as a renewable feedstock for essential products such as fuels, chemicals and building materials, that today are predominantly derived from fossil resources. CCU contributes to a circular economy in which the emissions at the end of life of a product are again captured and used to make new products. Combined with bio-based solutions and recycling, CCU can contribute to a fossil free future. Furthermore, CCU can become a carbon-negative technology if its energy demand is covered by renewable energy sources, and if the captured CO₂ is bound in high volumes and in products with a high longevity.

WaterProof (urban Waste and water Treatment Emission Reduction by utilizing CO2 for the PROduction Of Formate derived chemicals) aims at closing the waste(water) carbon loop by creating a novel biorefinery concept converting CO2 emissions from urban waste treatment facilities into valuable green consumer-products. The objective is a technology resulting in a Hashtag#GHG reduction based on CO2 utilisation, replacement of fossil feedstock and industrial electrification.

Fit for purpose: board development for social enterprise
Creators: name: Mason, Chris
name: Royce, Maureen
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: In recent times social enterprises have been afforded a high profile by the government in the UK, as a vehicle for enabling economic and social regeneration in communities. The developing trend to offer social enterprise organisations the opportunity to bid for public sector contracts raises the question of the viability, coherence and governance of such organisations. The creation of the Office of the Third Sector under the leadership of Ed Milliband suggests that social enterprise involvement in the delivery of public sector services is perceived to be of growing importance. The theoretical landscape of social enterprise governance is emergent though steadily accumulating evidence. The thrust of governance theory for these organisations offers a number of considerations: stakeholders; stewardship and agency / institutional perspectives have been proposed. Yet, an area that needs more provision is the empirical support for the variety of theoretical approaches to social enterprise governance. This paper aims to provide some empirical evidence, considering the importance of having a Board of Trustees that is 'fit for purpose'. The central premise is: does the Board in a social enterprise have the ability to lead and manage in a complex environment balancing economic reality with social and environmental values and mission. Case study data is used to enhance understanding of the sector and the skill requirements at Board level to promote survival and sustainability.

Physical Light as a Metaphor for Inner Light
Creators: name: Gabora, Liane
Publisher: name: Firenze University Press
Year: 2018

description: The metaphor between physical light and inner light has a long history that permeates diverse languages and cultures. This paper outlines a system for using basic principles from optics to visually represent psychological states and processes such as ideation, enlightenment, mindfulness, and fragmentation versus integrity, as well as situations that occur between people involving phenomena such as honest versus deceptive communication, and understanding versus misunderstanding. The paper summarizes two ongoing projects based on this system: The Light and Enlightenment art installation project, and the Soultracker virtual reality project. These projects enable people to depict their inner lives and external worlds including situations and relationships with others, both as they are and as they could be, and explore alternative paths for navigating challenges and living to their fullest potential. The projects aim to be of clinical value as therapeutic tools, as well as of pedagogical value by providing a concrete language for depicting aspects of human nature that can otherwise seem elusive and intangible.

description: RATIONALE FOR CALL:
 One of the most critical tasks of executing empirical research in Business Administration is to collect reliable data. This is usually costly, time-consuming and, sometimes, demands legal agreements along the process to guarantee the rights of those who own the data. Thus, the open access to empirical data is of extreme value for researchers of several fields (Piwowar & Vision, 2013; Van Raaij, 2018; Wallis, Rolando, & Borgman, 2013; Wegener & Rüping, 2011; Zimmerman, 2008). In the past few years, the worldwide community (Wilkinson, Dumontier, Aalbersberg, Appleton, Axton, Baak, et al., 2016) initiated a process to make research data FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable) throughout Open Science practices. RAC supports this movement and is committed to boosting open science practices (including open data) in the local community.
 One of the cornerstones of Open Data is to make it accessible for reuse. To foster reuse of data, RAC is inviting the submission of articles that build upon reused data. We encourage authors to access data used in previously published works to investigate new or current issues that are of interest to the management community. We are looking for articles that, building upon open data, take a different look than the original article either by developing further the original research or providing new insights to it. Articles also may try to validate the original results using different estimation techniques or different theories.

Mother India ruft ihre Kinder. Bemerkungen zur Persons of Indian Origin Card besonders in Mauritius
Creators: name: Kantowsky, Detlef
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: "Understanding the sentiments of persons of Indian origin to be closer to their original country und to reinforce their emotional bonds, as well as respecting their desire to participate in the development of the country of their origin" the Government of India has launched a comprehensive Scheme for the Persons of Indian Origin which has been in force since April l51, 1999. Its relevance for persons of Indian origin living in Mauritius is exemplified by showing in a fictitious example that the fourth generation offspring of a man from "Auzimghar" who came on board the ship "Rustomjee Cowasjee" as indentured labourer to Mauritius on 14th October 1849 could indeed take advantage of the scheme not only for his own business connections but for his children's higher education as well. Considering that most of the Indian immigrants stem from the backward or scheduled caste milieu the question must however be raised whether their Mauritian grand- or great-grandchildren will really be eager to relate back to their roots. V.S. Naipaul. though a Brahmin by caste, has testified what it can mean to "come home" and be confronted with the harsh realities of still prevailing structures of economic impoverishment created by John Company Raj especially in eastern Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, areas from where so many of the indentured labourers came - not to mention the ritual discrimination which has been abolished so far only on paper. Against this heritage of their past the new Indian middle class lifestyle in Mauritius stands in splendid contrast and it remains to be seen how many of Mother India's children will apply for a PIO Card.

Islamisation Processes among Mauritian Muslims

description: Islamisation has proved to be the basic regulator of change for the Muslim minority community of Mauritius. It has provided cultural idioms in the socio-economic progression of the group. More importantly, it has served to articulate the group's identity and interests in the changing political contexts of colonial and post-colonial society. Influenced by ideas evolving in the country of origin as well as elsewhere, Islamisation processes have often been contradictory in nature. At present, local Islam displays a highly pluralistic nature, and one of the dominant trends is constituted by fundamentalism.

Language and Identity in an Indian Diaspora: "Multiculturalism" and Ethno-linguistic Communities in Mauritius
Creators: name: Eisenlohr, Patrick
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: Mauritians of Indian origin represent a highly diverse group, and consider themselves to be divided into separate ethno-linguistic communities despite the fact that they all share a common vernacular language. The article analyzes how ideas of "ancestral languages" have played a crucial role in the fragmentation of the Indian community of Mauritius by creating new diasporic group solidarities oriented towards different "homelands" in South Asia. The case presented here not only illustrates contemporary trends in Indian diasporic cultures, but also provides an alternative to previous approaches addressing the problem of language and community formation. Languages of diasporic allegiance do not provide a channel of communication through which group solidarity can be spread and community mobilization effected. Instead, notions of diasporic group identity among lndoMauritians are mediated by ideologies of"ancestral languages".

Subaltern Success Stories: Socio-Economic Mobility in the Indian Labour Diaspora - Some Mauritian Case Studies
Creators: name: Carter, Marina
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: Indian indentured labour migrants to the 19th century tropical sugar colonies became symbols of degradation and discrimination, while the stigma and stereotypes of the 'coolie" remain to blight this important facet of the historical Indian diaspora. This paper challenges misconceptions of indentured migration, through an analysis of the dynamics of socio-economic mobility of coolies and their offspring, demonstrating how, in certain cases, individuals characterised as neo-slaves in the literature, in fact acquired capital during and post-indenture which enabled them to become prosperous landowners themselves and to provide the means through which their children could acquire professional status. The article provides several case studies from Mauritius, where the descendants of Indian indentured labourers today form a majority of the population, and have held key positions in government since that country's independence in 1968.

description: The goal of this paper is a review of current aspects of megacity development within the Philippine National Capital Region (NCR), whose present status is due to its colonial history, (post)feudal hierarchies and global impact. After a general discussion of causes and consequences of national urbanization, focus is put on the specific situation of Metro Manila (NCR), whose primacy is analyzed with regard to its social, ecological and economic impact on metropolitan life. The ambivalence of economic liberalization, which often lacks any social backup, is bound to widen the socioeconomic gap between urban rich and poor and will sharpen Metro Manila's dependence on a small number of 'Global Players'.

Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: Thailand experienced a rapid extension of social welfare at the end of the 20th century. In a period of just ten years the country moved to a free-market social economy similar to its prototypes in Europe. This paper looks at the development of formal, informal and traditional welfare aspects in Thailand. It shows how traditional bonds of family and community contribute to the social wellbeing of the Thai population. In addition, the role of non-governmental welfare organisations is examined. The main focus of the article is on public social services and/or financial support for certain people and groups. The author argues that with the steady expansion of its social security and public welfare system, Thailand has gradually developed into a paternalistic welfare state.

Gorno-Badakhshan: Experimente mit der Autonomie - Sowjetisches Erbe und Transformation im Pamir
Creators: name: Kreutzmann, Hermann
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: Reports on Tajikistan have focussed mainly on the period of civil war immediately following independence and the dissolution of the Soviet Union. The civil war was characterized by different factions competing for power and the internal displacement of refugees. The autonomous mountain province of Gorno-Badakhshan appeared in this context as a region of refuge for people with kinship ties in the Pamirs. In this paper the historical evidence for creating a regional entity and establishing autonomy in the Pamirs during Russian and the subsequent Soviet rule and the legacy inherited by the independent state is presented and discussed. Despite major efforts during the project of communist modernization present-day conditions are bleak and challenge the resilience of the Pamirian inhabitants. Highly skilled professionals have to turn back to subsistent strategies of mountain agriculture which can hardly provide a living. Great hopes are set on the incorporation of Tajikistan into the Trans-Asian highway network, and especially Pamirian trans-border trade with the thriving Chinese economy. Disputes over colonial boundary delineation are one of the factors retarding the establishment of favourable exchange relations which could calm down separatist movements.

Der Afghanistankrieg - Die Ethnisierung eines Konflikts
Creators: name: Schetter, Conrad
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: The terrorists ' attacks of 11 th September catapulted the war in Afghanistan, a forgotten crisis, into the centre of world events. Almost all policymakers, journalists and academics tended to reduce the conflict in Afghanistan to its ethnic dimension. In full accordance with this assessment the United Nations strived to end the "ethnic conflict" in Afghanistan with an "ethnic solution" at the Petersberg Conference in December 2001. What this approach ignored is the fact that, despite the ethnicization of the conflict, the ethnicization of the Afghan masses failed. Although ethnicity became a political-military force to reckon with during the 23 year ongoing Afghan war, the significance of ethnicity as basis of political articulation and social organisation remained strictly limited. Hence, ethnicity was opposed by competing identities as well as by strategic considerations of the war factions. Against this background the accentuation of ethnicity as well as the attempt to apply an "ethnic solution" to Afghanistan marks a serious risk.

Bragg spectroscopy of a strongly interacting Fermi gas
Creators: name: Veeravalli, Gopisankararao
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The main objective of the research described in this thesis is to probe the manybody quantum effects in a strongly interacting Fermi gas using Bragg spectroscopy. An enriched source of Lithium-6 atoms is used to probe these properties. The broad Feshbach resonance of the two lowest hyperfine levels of 6Li at a magnetic field of 834G is exploited to precisely control the interactions between the atoms. In our experiments, a beam of hot 6Li atoms produced by an oven is cooled using a σ− Zeeman slower in an ultra-high vacuum environment. From this slowed atomic beam, 4% of the atoms are cooled and trapped in a magneto-optical trap (MOT) created by six perpendicularly intersecting near-resonant laser beams. This Doppler cooled MOT consists of 108 atoms at a temperature of 280 μK. A small fraction (1%) of atoms is then transferred from the MOT to a single optical dipole trap created by a 100 W fibre laser. To obtain the temperatures of degeneracy (≈ 100 nK), the atomic sample is further evaporatively cooled in the presence of Feshbach magnetic fields, by reducing the intensity of the dipole trap laser with the help of a commercial PID controller. Once the degenerate gas is formed, the dipole trap is switched off and the gas is allowed to expand for a certain time of flight before taking an absorption image on a CCD camera for analysis. At magnetic fields below the Feshbach resonance, the collisional interactions become repulsive and a bound molecular state exists for fermionic atoms with opposite spins. These bound fermions form a composite boson which follows bosonic statistics to form a molecular Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC). At magnetic fields above the Feshbach resonance, the interactions become attractive and no stable bound state exists. However at ultracold temperatures, a Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) state is created through weak coupling between the fermions forming a 'Cooper pair'. When the field is tuned to the Feshbach resonance (unitarity), the scattering length of the atoms diverges and the interactions in the gas become universal. Under such conditions, correlated pairs are predicted to exist due to many-body quantum effects. The size of these pairs becomes comparable to the inter-particle distances, making this system an ideal test bed for studying superfluidity. Bragg spectroscopy is designed and implemented to probe the composition of the particles at unitarity as well as their correlation properties across the BEC-BCS crossover. A comprehensive study of these properties across the Feshbach resonance is presented for the first time via Bragg scattering of the strongly interacting Fermi gas. The Bragg spectra are analysed in terms of the centre-of-mass displacement of the cloud along the direction of the Bragg pulse. A smooth transition from molecular to atomic spectra is observed with a clear signature of pairing at and above unitarity. Furthermore, the two-body correlations are characterised and their density dependence is measured across the broad Feshbach resonance.
When does native language input affect phonetic perception? The precocious case of lexical tone
Creators: name: Yeung, Ho Henny
name: Chen, Ke Heng
name: Werker, Janet Feldman, 1951-
Publisher: name: Elsevier
Year: 2019

description: Previous studies have suggested that the perception of vowels and consonants changes from language-universal to language-specific between 6 and 12 months of age. This report suggests that language-specific perception emerges even earlier for lexical tones. Experiment 1 tested English-learners’ perception of Cantonese tones, replicating declines in tone discrimination from 4 to 9 months of age. Experiment 2 tested infants learning non-native versus native tone systems (Mandarin-learners versus Cantonese-learners). All Chinese-learners discriminated the tones, but showed language-specific differences in tone preferences at both ages. Indeed, English-, Mandarin-, and Cantonese-learning 4-month-olds all exhibited distinct preferences. With other work, this shows that language-specific speech perception emerges over a more complex and extended schedule than previously thought: first for lexical stress and tone (<5 months), then vowels (6-8 months), consonants (8.5-12 months), and finally phoneme duration (18 months). Acoustic salience likely plays an important role in determining the timing of phonetic development.

description: This report gives detailed information on the print media, radio, television and the Internet in Burma. Although this article also deals with various subtle and most open and brutal forms of censorship, its main focus lies on the analysis of communication structures from a political and economic perspective. According to the author there are three mass media power groups in Burma: The state and military complex, which is by far the most important one, the Chinese community and, interestingly enough, the drug barons, who are active in the publication of journals and magazines. The author compares the programmes of the state and military TV channels. While the state TV programme is rather boring, conservative and state oriented, the military channel has much more advertising, more entertainment and is more Western oriented.

Motivations, Prospects and Challenges for Intern-Korean Economic Relations in a New Era
Creators: name: Nam, Chang Woon
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: The historic June 2000 summit between the two Koreas has played an important role in the intensification of inter-Korean economic cooperation, traditionally acknowledged as one of the most crucial prerequisites for peaceful coexistence and eventual unification on the Korean peninsula. This study primarily deals with the motivations, problems and prospects for different types of future private and public economic relations between the two Koreas. Furthermore, taking into account the North's specific political structure and depressed economic situation as well as its poor location quality and the unfavourable experiences hitherto made by foreign firms, this study suggests that the ideal and efficient inter-Korean economic cooperation should be based on the North's ambitious economic reform combined with an active open-door policy, the achievement of co-prosperity led by the continuous growth of the North Korean economy, the limitation of South Korea's financial burden to an affordable level, the prudent marketoriented calculation and sectoral as well as regional targeting of South Korean investments in the North and the immediate reduction of military tension on the Korean peninsula.

Wertschätzung und Ächtung: Moral und Politik in Südthailand
Creators: name: Horstmann, Alexander
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: The discourse on morality and moral boundaries is a conspicuous feature of increasing identity politics in southern Thailand. This article shows how local groups of Buddhist and Muslim intellectuals aim to define the criteria of morality in a binary scheme of good and bad and how images of the good life are embedded in the contest of cultural identity in southern Thailand at large. This article examines the strategies of Thai-Buddhist and Malay-Muslim intellectuals in southern Thailand, focusing on their personal role in constituting local culture. In particular, cultural images of nostalgia and authenticity relate the local to cultural globalisation. The proliferation of moral codes in discourses on cultural identity beyond the boundaries of ethnic affiliation shows that images of the good life are coming increasingly to the fore in local projects of power and domination in southern Thailand.

Dialog in vermintem Gelände. Die Gespräche zwischen der Militärjunta und der Opposition in Myanmar
Creators: name: Zöllner, Hans-Bernd
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: The article attempts to analyse the talks that were made public in January 2001. It argues that the dialogue is a result of the 10 years political deadlock that has frustrated both sides and endangered their credibility and legitimacy. Both Khin Nyunt and Aung San Suu Kyi, the well known representatives of the State Peace and Development Council (SPDC) and the National League of Democracy (NLD) respectively, derive their legitimisation from Aung San and thus share a common ground of Burman political culture. This opens the possibility of a compromise that could lead to a transition towards a more civil society in Myanmar. On the other hand, this very factor must provoke the suspicion of the non-Burman groups as well as of factions inside the organisations represented by the two leaders that may endanger the success of the process of national reconciliation.

Indienforschung im Wandel
Creators: name: Bechert, Heinz
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: Whereas Indian studies in Germany were largely based on the evaluation of early texts, inscriptions and other documents until quite recently, the question of continuity and transformation of the cultural heritage of India from ancient times until the present period has now become a main task of Indology. Therefore, new requirements for scholars in this field should be considered at the beginning of the 21st century, viz. the study of modern Indian literatures and personal acquaintance with real life in South Asia. The author exemplifies these developments with reference to the history of Indian studies at Gottingen university. However, he argues that modern Indian studies may not be radically separated from "classical" Indology because the knowledge of ancient and mediaeval Indian culture is the necessary basis for a correct understanding of the contemporary social, political and religious developments in South Asia.

Südasienforschung in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland. Bericht über eine Bestandsaufnahme
Creators: name: Wagner, Christian
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: In 1999, the Institute for Asian Studies in Hamburg initiated a project on "Modernization of East Asian Studies and the Prospects of South Asian Studies in Germany" that was partly funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research. The study was done on the basis of interviews and a survey among German scholars and also included a comparison with the United States, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. The majority of German research on South Asia is done in classical Indology. More than fifty percent of all German South Asia specialists belong to philological disciplines. With some twenty chairs, Indology has the broadest institutional background at German universities. The remaining c. fifty percent are distributed among nine other disciplines. The survey revealed a growing interest in modem topics like nationalism and foreign policy, but the academic infrastructure of German universities shows considerable gaps in the field of social sciences and contemporary South Asian Studies.

Africans in India - Past and Present
Creators: name: Basu, Helene
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: This article deals with the presence of African slaves in Western India. By looking at Islamic notions of slavery, the slave trade from East Africa and different historical situations in which Africans participated during the last four hundred years of Indian history, the general context for their presence is established. The second part of the paper describes the contemporary situation of former African slaves in Gujarat who are called Sidi. Present notions of Sidi identity are closely embedded in ritual constructions focussed on African ancestor-saints who appear as icons of an African past.

Die Rolle des Supreme Court in der Verfassungsentwicklung Indiens
Creators: name: Conrad, Dieter
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: This paper tries to assess the specific role of the Supreme Court of India in the development of the Indian constitution and, hence, of the democracy of India. As a court of universal jurisdiction the Supreme Court of India has passed a number of remarkable judgements. This is demonstrated by the analysis of four topics: a) the power of the Supreme Court to issue writs for the enforcement of fundamental rights; b) the various proceedings in property rights cases; c) the basic structure-doctrine which states that the essential features of the constitution cannot be changed by Parliament, thus finally establishing the supremacy of the constitution over Parliament; d) the protection of fundamental rights and the introduction of the public interest litigation since 1977 as a means for groups of concerned citizens to counterbalance the inefficiency and passivity of the state apparatus through. With its judgements the Supreme Court has actively redefined its role as an independent and innovative constitutional body. It has thereby helped the constitution and especially the basic principles of equality and justice to become a matter of concern to all citizens of India.

description: With the onset of mental disorders during adolescence, mobile health (mHealth) apps are especially a promising approach for depression, which is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in this vulnerable age group, and is yet underrecognized, underdiagnosed and undertreated. To alleviate depressive symptomatology and elevate psychological well-being in adolescents, an evidence-based social support-enabled mHealth framework was investigated, proposed, implemented, and evaluated with technical experts, mental health practitioners, and school-going adolescents. The results indicated a positive reception, with participants expressing appreciation for the app's usability and potential impact on their well-being. These contributions emphasize the importance of integrating social support into mHealth interventions for adolescent depressive symptomatology based on self-reported and real-time unobtrusive symptom collection via machine learning models.

description: В нашем регионе высокие температурные показатели в птичниках летом нередко вызывают возникновение теплового стресса у птицы, что приводит к снижению по-требления кормов, скорости роста, сохранности птицы, качества яиц. Достаточно эффективно последствия теплового стресса можно смягчить путем импринтинга эмбрионов к действию высоких температур в процессе инкубации. В связи с этим целью работы было установить влияние разработанного режима температурной стимуля-ции эмбрионов кур на результаты инкубации, живую массу и сохранность цыплят. Установлено, что применение в ходе эмбриогенеза разработанного в Государст-венной опытной станции птицеводства режима температурного стимулирования, положительно влияет на выводимость яиц. Так, этот показатель в опытной группе был на 2,7 % (Р≤0,01) выше, чем в контроле. Выявлена тенденция к положительному эффекту от применения температурного стимулирования птицы в период эмбриогене-за на ее сохранность и живую массу при выращивании в жаркий сезон годаI
description: n our region, high temperature indices in poultry houses in the summer often cause heat stress in the poultry, which leads to a decrease in feed intake, growth rate, bird livability and egg quality. Effects of heat stress can be mitigated by imprinting of embryos to the effects of high temperatures during incubation. In connection with this, the goal of the work was to de-termine the effect of the developed regime of temperature stimulation of chick embryos on the results of incubation, weight and the livability of chickens. It has been established that the use of temperature stimulation regime (developed at State Research Poultry Station) during the embryogenesis, positively influences the hatchability of eggs. So, egg hatchability in the experimental group was 2.7% (P≤0.01) higher, than in the control group. The tendency to a positive effect from the application of the temperature stimu-lation of the birds during embryogenesis on their livability and weight when grown during the hot season of the year was detected.
