Full textAbstract:
Several topics are covered in the paper. Firstly, a list of sources of law which regulates the issue of the jurisdictions of provincial governors is given form the broader ones to the narrower ones. Jurisdiction of a provincial governor used to come into being in the moment of his entrance to the province. In case he leaves it, his jurisdictions would stop and he would become a private individual. The substitution of the personal jurisdiction of provincial governors, which was significantly shaken by the constitution of Caracalla in 212, with the territorial one, appears to be obvious at the end of the Dominate. The governor used to have civil and military jurisdictions. The former included judicial and administrative powers. Judicial jurisdictions were comprised of those in criminal and those in civil matter. Out of scope of the civil matter, only the examples of the jurisdictions of provincial governors in the matter of property law have been covered in this paper, which, according to the tripartition of Gaius, amounts to ius quod ad res pertinet. Provincial governors were authorised to adjudicate on almost all disputes arising from the everyday life during the formation, protection and termination of rights, not only those related to possessio, dominium, and iura in re aliena, but also those in the matter of obligationes and inheritance.

Full textAbstract:
In some cases, when a person owned property, his rights over such property might be limited. The most important rights over another’s property, mentioned by Byzantine law and accepted in mediaeval Serbian legal sources are servitudes, pledge and emphyteusis. The rules on servitudes (δουλεία – rabota) penetrated in Serbian law at the beginning of 13th century, when Saint Sabba (Свети Сава) incorporated in his “Nomokanon” the whole Byzantine “Procheiron”. Its chapter XXXVIII, under the title “On novelties” (Περὶ καινοτομιῶν), contains different provisions, concerning the servitudes, mixed with administrative rules on building the new houses. That was the reason why Serbian translators of “Procheiron” entitled this chapter as “On building of new houses, reconstruction of the old and other things”. While the chapter XXXVIII of “Procheiron” contains 64 provisions, Matheas Blastares took in his “Syntagma” only 18, and created a short Chapter K-3 under the same title “On novelties” (“O novotvorenxhь” in Serbian translation). It contains, beside different decrees and prohibitions by administrative authorities, some urban servitudes, that could be changed by special agreements (συμφώνον – sьglasi«). Byzantine legal miscellanies always put together the rules on pledge in the same chapter with the provisions on loan, although modern legal science treats pledge as a part of the law of property and loan as a real contract and the part of the law of obligation. The chapter X of “Ecloga” has a title “On literal and unliteral loans and for them given pledges”; the chapter XVI of “Procheiron” is known under the title “On loan and pledge” and the chapter XXVIII of “Epanagoge” entitled “On loans and pledges”. For this reason, Matheas Blastares included the chapter Δ-2 under the title “On lenders, and loan, and pledges” in his “Syntagma”. Among Serbian legal sources, pledge was mentioned only in a few documents: these are so called “Justinian’s Law” (art. 26 and 27); King Milutin’s chrysobull, granted to the Hilandar’s pyrgos in Chrousija; King Dušan’s chrysobull, giving the church of Most Holy Virgin in Lipljan to the Hilandar’s pyrgos in Chrousija; and Dušan’s “Law Code” (art. 90). The chapter XV of the “Procheiron” has the title “On emphyteusis” and contains six provisions, speaking on emphyteusis of Church estates. Matheas Blastares introduced a short Chapter E-8, entitled “On emphyteusis” (“O nasa`denîi” in Serbian translation), in his “Syntagma”. Its chapter represents an interpretation of Justinian’s Novella CXX, chapters 2 and 8. In Serbian legal sources we can not find any information on emphyteusis.

The role of pledge and its affirmation is related to most qualitative changes of claims. The right of pledge as item right in foreign item (iura in re aliena) makes a history only to a certain degree of economic and social development. In this degree of development there was a need and necessity to secure the other’s claims even de facto, by the hand item, by ”pledging” of an item. The creditor requires that his claims to the debtor be secured by obtaining of a pledge of debtor item. The debtor’s conjunction of creditor by obtaining debtor’s item is safer for the creditor to realize its claims, rather than when the debtor secured these claims by his/her personality, bail, personal insurance. In the Kosovo legal system there is possessory pledge, non-possessory pledge and the pledge over the rights.

Abstract Background Intraoperative ultrasound (IUS) localization for breast cancer is a noninvasive localization technique. In 2015, an IUS program for breast-conserving surgery (BCS) was initiated in a large, integrated health care system. This study evaluated the clinical results of IUS implementation. Methods The study identified breast cancer patients with BCS from 1 January to 31 October 2015 and from 1 January to 31 October 2019. Clinicopathologic characteristics were collected, and localization types were categorized. Clinical outcomes were analyzed, including localization use, surgeon adoption of IUS, day-of-surgery intervals, and re-excision rates. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate predictors of re-excision. Results The number of BCS procedures increased 23%, from 1815 procedures in 2015 to 2226 procedures in 2019. The IUS rate increased from 4% of lumpectomies (n = 79) in 2015 to 28% of lumpectomies (n = 632) in 2019 (p < 0.001). Surgeons using IUS increased from 6% (5 of 88 surgeons) in 2015 to 70% (42 of 60 surgeons) in 2019. In 2019, 76% of IUS surgeons performed at least 25% of lumpectomies with IUS. The mean time from admission to incision was shorter with IUS or seed localization than with wire localization (202 min with IUS, 201 with seed localization, 262 with wire localization in 2019; p < 0.001). The IUS re-excision rates were lower than for other localization techniques (13.6%, vs 19.6% for seed localization and 24.7% for wire localization in 2019; p = 0.006), and IUS predicted lower re-excision rates in a multivariable model (odds ratio [OR], 0.59). Conclusions In a high-volume integrated health system, IUS was adopted for BCS by a majority of surgeons. The use of IUS decreased the time from admission to incision compared with wire localization, and decreased re-excision rates compared with other localization techniques.

Full textAbstract:
Summary In D. 13,7,9pr. (Ulp. 28 ad ed.) a debtor, who has handed over a res aliena as pledge to a creditor, will be sued with the iudicium contrarium. Whereas most handbooks of Roman law understand the aim of the actio pigneraticia contraria as the debtor’s duty to replace the res aliena by a new pledge, owned by the debtor, the sources do not necessarily lead to this conclusion. From the procedural perspective and the condemnatio pecuniaria of classical Roman law (instead of specific performance) this solution seems to be problematic and may have been developed under in any case influence of Justinianic law. Also on the basis of the concept of pignus as obligatio re contracta, it is submitted that the debtor’s obligation could only have concerned the alien thing itself; beside this, the aim of the actio contraria was compensation for the creditor’s damages.

Full textAbstract:
Objective: To assess the safety, acceptability and six-month continuation rate of immediate versus delayed insertion of the levonorgestrel releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) following surgical termination of first trimester pregnancy. Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted on 180 patients who underwent surgical abortion and opted for LNGIUS and divided into two groups; immediate group=86 and delayed group=94. Pain scores, adverse effects, acceptability and continuation rate were recorded. Results: More patients in the delayed insertion group exhibited higher perception of pain (p< 0.001) and requested additional analgesia upon LNG-IUS insertion (p< 0.05) with no significant difference between the two groups regarding other adverse effects (fainting, abnormal vaginal bleeding, expulsion and pelvic infection), request for removal and re-insertion of LNG-IUS (p>0.05). The continuation rate and patient acceptability in terms of overall satisfaction and recommendation to other women, were comparable between the two groups (p>0.05) while overall discomfort was higher in the delayed group at one, three and six months after insertion (p< 0.05) Conclusion: Although immediate insertion of LNG-IUS after first trimester surgical abortion has higher expulsion rate, yet it has lower pain intensity, request for additional analgesia and overall discomfort compared to delayed insertion of LNG-IUS with comparable continuation and acceptability rates at 6 months after insertion. Keywords: levonorgestrel releasing intrauterine system; abortion; post abortive contraception

Background: Hormonal contraceptive is suggested to affect parameters like body mass index, body weight, blood pressure (BP), blood sugar, lipid protein, and liver function test (LFT) but effect of LNG-IUS on those parameters is still uncertain. The aim of the present study was to study the effects of LNG-IUS on the metabolic parameters.Methods: Sixty women who opted for LNG-IUS for various indications were included in the study. Lipid profile, liver function tests (LFT), glucose levels [fasting and post prandial (PP)], and hemoglobin (Hb) were tested. Bimanual genital examination and transvaginal-ultrasonography was done prior to LNG-IUS insertion. Any problems observed were recorded. The subjects were re-evaluated after 6 and 9 months on their subsequent visits. Data were analyzed using paired “t” test. P value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results: Mean age of the patients was 35.5±6.79 years. Maximum number 50 (83.3%) had abnormal uterine bleeding (ovulatory dysfunction, endometrial, iatrogenic, not yet classified) [AUB (OEIN)]. Mean pictorial blood loss assessment chart (PBAC) score of patients was 164.7±56.72 and mean Hb level 11.15±1.75g/dL. LNG-IUS showed no significant adverse effects on anthropometric parameters at 6- and 9-month follow-up. Significant change was seen in total cholesterol (TC), very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and high density lipoproteins (HDL) values at follow-up (p<0.0001).Conclusions: In conclusion, amongst Asian population, the LNG-IUS does not have any adverse effects on metabolic parameters, TGs, LDL and blood sugar levels.

Full textAbstract:
La presente ricerca, articolata in tre capitoli, è volta ad analizzare il ruolo che l’autonomia privata ricoprì nell’ambito dei iura praediorum, sia sotto il profilo contenutistico, che sotto quello dinamico dell’usus servitutis.
Il primo capitolo esamina il contributo dell’autonomia privata nell’emersione dei primi iura praediorum rusticorum, individuabili in via, iter, actus e aquae ductus, i quali si atteggiavano originariamente a potere dominicale che il titolare del fondo avvantaggiato esercitava su una determinata porzione del fondo vicino. L’origine separata delle prime servitù rustiche ne determinò un’iniziale tipicità. Le singole facoltà proprie della via ne furono estrapolate nella prassi, per divenire figure autonome. Il successivo intervento giurisprudenziale fu fondamentale per fornire ad iter ed actus un’idonea veste giuridica, mediante la formulazione della nozione di ius in re aliena.
Il secondo capitolo è dedicato allo studio del ruolo svolto dai privati nell’emersione della categoria della servitus. Con la genesi dei iura praediorum urbanorum e l’introduzione di nuove servitù rustiche inizia a profilarsi una categoria unitaria con propri caratteri peculiari. Anche in questo contesto si riscontra il ruolo preminente della prassi negoziale, affiancata dall’elaborazione concettuale della giurisprudenza, particolarmente vivace in epoca tardo-repubblicana.
Al tema dell’usus servitutis è dedicato il terzo capitolo. Per quanto attiene alle servitù più antiche, l’utilizzo prolungato del passaggio o della conduttura d’acqua consentiva il consolidamento di una situazione di fatto in una realtà riconosciuta dal diritto. Tale usus della servitù fu oggetto anche di una specifica tutela interdittale. Quanto al modus, si esclude che potesse avere una funzione correttiva della tipicità dei iura praediorum: esso, attienente unicamente all’esercizio del diritto, non incideva sul contenuto delle singole servitù e non ne modificava l’utilitas.
Si ritiene, in conclusione, che i privati restassero liberi di riversare nel modello delineato dalla giurisprudenza le utilità che le nuove esigenze socio-economiche richiedevano, nel rispetto dei caratteri delineati dalla giurisprudenza. Si può, pertanto, notare una distinzione tra servitù nominate, ampiamente analizzate dalla giurisprudenza, e servitù innominate, emerse dalla vivacità della prassi negoziale.The aim of this research is to analyse the role of private autonomy in iura praediorum, both for their content and for the dynamic profile of usus servitutis. The first chapter examines the contribution of private autonomy to the emergence of the first iura praediorum rusticorum, such as via, iter, actus, aquae ductus: these were originally structured as a dominical power, that the owner whose estate has an advantage over the neighbouring estate. The separate origins of the first rural servitude led to their earliest typology. The individual permits of via were derived from via in private practice, in order to become independent figures. The subsequent intervention of jurisprudence was crucial in order to offer both iter and actus a suitable legal form through the development of the concept of ius in re aliena. The second chapter investigates the role of the private citizens in conceiving servitus category. The genesis of iura praediorum urbanorum and the introduction of new rural servitudes led to the emergence of a homogeneous category, which was characterized by its own individual features. In this context too, the sources reveal the preeminent role of negotiating practices, followed by conceptual processing by jurists, especially in the late Republican period. The third chapter is entirely dedicated to the diverse implications of usus servitutis. As far as the most ancient rural servitudes are concerned, the extensive use of a path or a water pipe permitted the consolidation of a factual situation, which then turned into a legal reality. This particular usus of the rural servitude was protected by interdicta. As for modus servitutis, it is unlikely that it would have had a corrective typological function of iura praediorum: it only concerned the exercise of the right of servitude and had no influence whatever on the content of rural servitude, considering that it did not alter their utilitas. In conclusion, it has been estimated that private citizens could transfer every kind of need the socio-economic conditions imposed in the model designed by the jurisprudence, so long as the characteristics of the servitus category were complied with. Thus, a distinction between nominatae and innominatae servitutes is conceivable: the former were well known by both practice and jurisprudence, whereas the latter were revealed by active private practice.

Full textAbstract:
The thesis focuses on the many problems arising from the disposal of other people's property in classical Roman law.
The thesis analyzes the alienations carried out by the most up-to-date legitimate 'non-domini', namely the 'tutor' and the 'curator'. It continues with the examination of the disposals made by other subjects that were considered capable of acting for others: 'potestati subiecti', namely children and servants, the 'procurator', the agent. It then considers some disposals of others' properties made by subjects who have not received any prior authorization, or have no legal link with the 'dominus negotii'.
In this way, it highlights the specificities of the legal regime of each disposal, pointing out the legal institutes and the mechanisms adopted by the jurists to solve the various issues submitted to their scrutiny.

This thesis aims at studying the connection between corruption and human rights. By analyzing the complex issue of corruption and examining the current anti-corruption instruments, it investigates the added values that a human rights law conceptualization of corruption could provide to the current international anti-corruption agenda. The dissertation explores a threefold linkage between corruption and human rights. By exploring corruption’s roots, causes, and consequences, this thesis highlights the way in which corruption represents the negation of the idea of human rights. Therefore, it will be argued that corruption and human rights are conceptually linked. Progressively, the theoretical connection will be considered from a legal point of view. More specifically, the legal analysis aims to show how the various forms of corruption and the state’s tolerance of corrupt practices may violate the human rights contained in the existing international human rights treaties. Despite there is no shortage of attention to the issue of corruption, there is still the need to work on the effectiveness of the anti-corruption methods. Without criticizing the criminal law approach per se, a strategic link between corruption and human rights will be provided. Within this framework, the added values of the human rights integration will be outlined, and the human rights actors involved in the human rights fight against corruption will be presented.

Full textAbstract:
Nell’Europea del XXI Secolo tendente verso una progressiva armonizzazione (rectius, potenziale unificazione) fiscale, nondimeno scarsa coerenza pare oggi intravedersi tra la giurisprudenza delle Corti centrali (europea ed internazionale pattizia) e quella delle Corti periferiche nel settore delle sanzioni tributarie e dell’annesso principio del “bis de eadem re ne sit actio” che ne vieta la duplicazione con altre ed ontologicamente differenti sanzioni. Ne origina, per il giudice tributario del merito, un’incertezza applicativa di fondo sul quale debba essere il suo atteggiamento di fronte alle differenti soluzioni proposte, che il presente progetto si propone di analizzare con riferimento precipuo alla posizione del giudice fiscale italiano, al fine di cogliere il ventaglio delle alternative a sua disposizione allo stato attuale dell’evoluzione del diritto e della giurisprudenza esterna ed interna. Questo nella consapevolezza che le difficoltà odierne del giudice tributario italiano di fronte alla problematica prospettata siano sovente le stesse – in un ordinamento giuridico europeo oramai «reticolare» e «multidirezionale» – anche di altri giudici fiscali di altri Stati continentali, sicché eventuali sistematizzazioni giuridiche a favore del primo potrebbero giovare anche ai secondi.Although Europe seems to be moving towards a progressive fiscal harmonization (or a potential unification either), nevertheless it's still difficult to find out any consistency between the jurisprudence of central Courts (European Court of Justice and European Court of Human Rights) and that of National Courts upon the Double Jeopardy Clause/Ne Bis In Idem Principle's meaning inside the tax field. Latest rulings issued by both the Court of Justice (ECJ) and the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) are causing an evident clash among divergent beliefs, given that: European Courts have defined the notion of ‘sameness’ as “the same conduct by the same persons at the same date” whereby, with respect to the imposition of several sanctions for the same conduct, they have forbidden a second set of proceedings (the criminal case) once that the previous set (the tax penalty) concerned the same offence – ‘the same conduct’ – and the content of the relevant provisions was mainly identical (embedded the ‘same facts/essential elements’). On the other side, the criterion of the "legal classification" of acts is still relevant as a prerequisite for the applicability of the Double Jeopardy Clause/Ne Bis In Idem Principle according to the Italian Court of Cassation, so that the latter deems the imposition of tax surcharges and a conviction for tax fraud may not be been found as capable to violate such Clause/Principle. Therefore, this scenario does give rise to an ambiguity in the judicial process since many Tax Judges are not sure whether to follow up the European Courts' opinion or the alternative path set by the National Court of Cassation. Probably, the current difficulties to find out any compromise solution is the mirror of a "multi-directional legal system", the European one, where relations between various different Judges have not been well absorbed yet.

Full textAbstract:
Nonostante il tema della lotta al terrorismo di matrice asseritamente religiosa, e dunque della radicalizzazione che precede il passaggio all’atto violento, sia al centro del dibattito politico e giuridico ormai da vent’anni, il nostro ordinamento non sembra essere stato ancora in grado di
elaborare una risposta univoca e efficace a detti fenomeni. Il punto di partenza da cui prende le mosse questo lavoro è la convinzione che le difficoltà finora incontrate siano anzitutto legate alla lacuna di una definizione giuridica di radicalizzazione, foriera di confusione e criticità. Primo scopo di tale ricerca, quindi, è conferire a tale concetto un’autentica rilevanza giuridica, capace di indicare all’ordinamento il baricentro attorno al quale orientare la propria reazione. Alla luce della proposta qui elaborata, secondo cui il radicalizzato è colui che ha modellato la sua intera personalità attorno
alla sua professione di fede e rifiuta di riconoscere pari dignità a chi non condivide la sua religiosità totalizzante, si vaglierà poi l’attuale modello italiano di contrasto alla radicalizzazione, evidenziandone in particolare i limiti e le debolezze. La seconda parte del lavoro suggerisce invece inedite strategie di prevenzione della radicalizzazione e di de-radicalizzazione attuabili in un ordinamento laico come quello italiano, prefigurando nuove ipotesi di collaborazione con le comunità religiose compatibili col quadro costituzionale e sottolineando la centralità del concetto di responsabilità in un piano laico di de-radicalizzazione.Despite the fact that the fight against allegedly religious terrorism, and therefore the radicalisation that precedes the transition to violence, has been at the centre of the political and legal debate for twenty years now, our legal system does not yet seem to have been able to develop a univocal and effective response to these phenomena. The starting point for this work is the conviction that the difficulties encountered so far are first and foremost linked to the lack of a legal definition of radicalisation, a source of confusion and criticality. The first aim of this research, therefore, is to give this concept legal relevance, capable of indicating to the legal system the centre of gravity around which to orient its reaction. In the light of the proposal elaborated here, according to which the radicalised individual is he who has modelled his entire personality around his profession of faith and refuses to recognise equal dignity to those who do not share his totalising religiosity, the present Italian model of counteracting radicalisation will be examined, highlighting, in particular, its limits and weaknesses. The second part of the thesis, on the other hand, suggests new strategies for the prevention of radicalisation and de-radicalisation that can be implemented in a secular system such as the Italian one, prefiguring new hypotheses of collaboration with religious communities compatible with the constitutional framework and stressing the centrality of the concept of responsibility in a secular plan of de-radicalisation.

Objects, medium, sources, governance, content, actors, purposes and forms of public transparency are experiencing a
rapid and profound evolution, which transcends national borders, and depends on the interaction between political,
technological, legal and socio-cultural drivers. This happens when transparency exploiting the Open Government Data
means and falls under the Open Government framework.
Through the Italian and French legal systems, this thesis aims to highlight the recent advancements in public transparency.
At first, we will look at the interplay between the concepts of transparency and openness, to identify the legal issues raised
by the disclosure of public data. Subsequently, we will turn to the supranational context, which plays a key role in
developing guidelines, standards and recommendations. A special place will be reserved to the right (and political) of the
European Union. In the second part, we will analyse the above-mentioned legal systems, which are actively engaged in
the wider reform of their Public Information Acts, within the framework of multi-stakeholder initiatives, such as the Open
Government Partnership.
On the whole, we will see how the shift from “transparency through documents” ” to “transparency through data challenges the public action models.

Servitudes represent a fundamental part of private law and legal relations stemming therefrom. Their origins may be traced back to the very beginning of private law as well as to the depth of Roman law. This also characterizes the nature of servitudes in their oldest form which later develops and changes greatly. The thesis answers the fundamental question of the system of Roman law servitudes as well as their place in the overarching Roman law and their inner structure. Additionaly, attention is brougt to the manner of inception and termination of servitudes which differs according to the type of servitude, the geographical area or historical period. Lastly, the thesis focuses on the protection of servitudes, generally the most common concept in Roman law. The protection of servitudes is being achieved either throurgh bringing an action or through instruments of extraordinary magistrates, such as interdicts. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Full textAbstract:
Private ownership played a central role in all periods of Roman society. In its early development, the Roman law of property knew two different ways in which private ownership of res mancipi and res nec mancipi could be transferred. In the late third century BC, the Roman jurists and the praetor were able to distinguish clearly between simple possession and full ownership: dominium ex iure Quiritium. Later on, they separated from this same dominium certain entitlements to use and enjoyment, which they classified as iura in re aliena. On one side, the original bundle of powers of the owner was hived off to constitute the usufruct, which coincided with what we might refer to as the “ordinary enjoyment” of the object. On the other side many praedial servitudes were created which allowed a landowner to make a limited use of another’s land. This chapter surveys that process.

Full textAbstract:
If I were a better human being, that person’s voice wouldn’t sound so shrill to me. Many of us may have had such thoughts. They give voice to the worrying intuition that if we were less affected by sexism and racism, or better at keeping our tempers, our fellow humans would look and sound differently to us. Alien Experience argues that we should take this sense of unease seriously. It is as philosophically significant as our unease over desires or fears that we disown. Making sense of this unease requires us to re-think the relation between experiences and standing commitments; to re-consider what we mean by self-control; and to attend to empirical questions about perception, attention, and tacit cognition. Alien Experience contests the assumption that while we may be answerable (morally, ethically, legally) for our attitudes and emotions, we are not answerable, at least not in any interesting way, for our perceptions and sensations. That assumption is threaded through debates in the philosophy of mind, moral psychology, and ethics, but it leads to a flattened view of the ways experiences are related to agency. Recognizing that we in fact can be alienated from our experiences leads us to a more nuanced view of agency, and helps us appreciate distinctive opportunities for self-improvement.

Full textAbstract:
The figure of a woman reclining, in repose, displayed, abandoned, fallen, asleep, or dreaming, returns in the work of women filmmakers and photographers in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Filmmakers Agnès Varda and Catherine Breillat, and American photographer working in Paris, Nan Goldin, return to the paintings of Titian, Velázquez, Goya, Courbet, and others, re-imagining, and re-purposing, their images of female beauty, display, (auto)eroticism, and intimacy. This book, a sensuous evocation of these feminist works, claims a female-identified pleasure in looking. The artists explored align images of repose and sensuality with other images of horizontality and proneness, of strong emotional content, images of erotic involvement, of vulnerability, of bodily contortion, of listlessness, grief, and depression. The reclining nude is for all three artists a starting point for a reflection on the relation of film, projections, and still photography, to painting, and a sustained re-imagining of the meanings conjured through serial returns to a particular pose. This book claims that the image of the reclining nude is compelling, for female-identified artists – and for all allied in feeling and picturing femininity – in the sensitive, ethically adventurous, politically complex feminist issues it engages. The reclining nude is an image of passivity, of submission, of hedonism. It allows thought about passivity as pleasure, about depression and grief figured posturally, about indolence as a form of resistance and anarchy. Through this image, female-identified artists have claimed freedom to offer new focus on these extremes of emotion. They are re-imagining horizontality.

Full textAbstract:
Management studies has “lost its way” by advancing instrumental research too frequently foreclosing its larger ethical and practical implications. The authors argue for bracketing the excessively technical and scientistic orientation of much management research by re-questioning the purposes, presuppositions and prejudices on which management and organization theories have been based. They explore philosophical approaches capable of grounding a restored public trust. These range from the use of phronesis (practical wisdom) in Business School curricula, rather than either pure techne or pure theoria, to recovering exemplars of codetermination in workplace practices and cultures that affirm in practice a deeper regard for human dignity than mere resource efficiency. These examples offer antidotes to entrenched managerialism in neoliberalism, embedding social and ecological concerns in organizational purposes. Management legitimacy is enhanced when viewed as a process accomplishing ends that support rather than alienate public confidence.

Full textAbstract:
The dominant anthropological and archaeological narrative of “Navajo” culture is that upon entering the northwestern New Mexico in the sixteenth century, bands of Athapaskan hunter-gatherers began an acculturative process that led them to adopt and assimilate Pueblo, Spanish, Mexican, and American cultural institutions. The anthropological and archaeological concept “Navajo,” created through Western scholarship by non-Diné, does not align with Diné worldview or conceptions of self and history. Instead, it reaffirms Western scholarship as legitimate, while it marginalizes and brands Diné history as “alternative,” or as not really history. A review of theories that underlie Navajo archaeological literature reveals that the genesis of the erroneous tenets about Diné culture stem from late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century ideas that researchers have only recently begun to re-examine.

Full textAbstract:
The Digital City focuses on the interface of people, urban place, and the role that digital media play in placemaking endeavors. Critics have understood digital media as forces that alienate and disembed users from space and place. This book argues that the exact opposite processes are observable: many different actors are consciously and habitually using digital technologies to re-embed themselves within urban space. Five case studies from cities around the world illustrate the concept of “re-placeing” by showing how different populations employ urban broadband networks, social and locative media platforms, digital navigation technologies, smart cities, and creative placemaking initiatives to reproduce abstract urban spaces as inhabited places with deep meanings and emotional attachments. Through clear and accessible language and timely narratives of everyday urban life, the author argues that a sense of place is integral to understanding contemporary relationships with digital media while highlighting our own awareness of the places where we find ourselves and where our technologies find and place us. Through ethnographic and discourse analysis of everyday digital media practices and technologies, this book expands practical and theoretical understandings of the ways urban planners envision and plan connected cities, the role of urban communities in shaping and interpreting digital architectures, and the tales of the city produced through mobile and web-based platforms. Digital connectivity is reshaping the city and the ways we navigate through it and belong within it. How this happens and the types of places we produce within these networked environments are what this book addresses.

Parents caring for children with special health care needs or long-term disabilities are called to a new level of competence as medical caregivers, often as soon as the child is discharged from the hospital. There is no accepted measure for success with this task, though failure can be met with repeated hospitalization or removal of the child from the home. This chapter evaluates, through parent narratives, how parents obtain and view their competence. Some parents perform in-depth research into their child’s medical problems and achieve a surprisingly high level of knowledge. This is often discounted by both the parents and health care providers. The moral work done in this area is significant. Parents must change their priorities and re-align their expectations for their child’s success. They must adapt to a slower developmental pace, and create for the child a safe haven where the child’s disability becomes the accepted norm.

Full textAbstract:
As a concept of international law, the right to self-determination is widely renowned for its lack of clarity. Broadly speaking, one can differentiate between a liberal and a nationalist tradition. In modern international law, the balance between these two opposing traditions is sought in an attempt to contain or ‘domesticate’ the nationalist conception by limiting it to ‘abnormal’ situations, that is to colonialism in the sense of ‘alien subjugation, domination and exploitation’. Essentially, this distinction between ‘normal’ and ‘abnormal’ situations has since, the distinction was made, been the heart of the matter in the legal discourse on the right to self-determination, with the important qualification regarding the need to preserve existing borders. This book situates Russia’s approach to the right to self-determination in that discourse by way of a regional comparison vis-à-vis a ‘Western’ or European perspective, and a temporal comparison with the former Soviet doctrine of international law. Against the background of the Soviet Union’s role in the evolution of the right to self-determination, the bulk of the book analyses Russia’s relevant state practice in the post-Soviet space through the prisms of sovereignty, secession, and annexation, illustrated by a total of seven case studies on the conflicts over Abkhazia, Chechnya, Crimea, Nagorno-Karabakh, South Ossetia, Tatarstan, and Transnistria. Complemented by a review of the Russian scholarship on the right to self-determination, it is suggested that Russia’s approach may be best understood not only in terms of power politics disguised as legal rhetoric, but can be seen as evidence of traits of a regional (re-)fragmentation of international law.

Full textAbstract:
Part One concludes by suggesting that the ultimate source of all these analytical problems is our standard modern template of social being. And the ultimate problem with this historicist model is that it imposes modern, dualist metaphysical conditions upon all non-modern realities, thereby authorizing us to align those realities with our own modern ontological commitments, fundamentally altering their contents in the process. The net result is a practice that homogenizes the past’s many different ways of being human by translating them all into the same peculiarly modern terms. Moreover, there is no obvious alternative practice available. Even the more theoretically informed forms of current historical practice, like mainstream cultural history, discursive history, and the “new materialist history,” likewise oblige us to re-engineer realities at the ontological level, since they too remain committed to a peculiarly modern metaphysical dualism. To produce histories that are more ethically defensible, more philosophically robust, and more historically meaningful, we need to take an ontological turn in our practice. As a number of influential anthropologists have recently proposed, we need to employ a more “recursive” mode of analysis, one that can make sense of each non-modern world on its own ontological terms, in its own original metaphysical conjuncture, as a more or less autonomous world unto itself. In Parts Two and Three, the book will consolidate the anthropologists’ case for this move in a number of ways.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractBeyond knowledge, critical thinking, new ideas, rigorous science and scholarly development, this chapter argues for the university as a space of life. Through the complexities and incommensurabilities of academic life, and drawing on Julia Kristeva’s notion of revolt, Emmanuel Levinas’ notion of Otherness, and Novalis’ concept of Romantisierung, it makes a philosophical argument for recognizing what might appear as uncomfortable transgressions of the marketable, measurable characteristics of World Class Universities. In various ways, the chapter asks where there is space, in the World Class University, for elements which may not overtly align with the neoliberal clamour for international recognition and esteem. In elevating everyday life in the university, the chapter blurs boundaries of the celebrated, strived for rankings with the spaces of life that are dark and heterotopic, messily entangled with histories, polyphonic human and more than human voice, beings and energies, within the university. Revolt provokes a re-turn to re-question the ethics and boundaries of treatments of ‘world’ and ‘class’ in conceptions of the World Class University. Here, ‘World Class University’ is not necessarily a globally streamlined and internationally bench-marked institution, flexing its socio-economic muscles in the face of the world. Instead, it is an institution that speaks for others who have been made silent and deprived of their own critical voice. It speaks for the suppressed and marginalized, and it speaks for the ones who are no longer with us, or who have not yet arrived. It speaks for the people and the times yet to come.

Full textAbstract:
The most authoritative textual accounts of the ‘Uganda martyrs’ pivot around the commission of ‘sodomy’ by Kabaka (king) Mwanga with his pages in the 1880s. This chapter asks how commemoration of the martyrdoms coexists with the claim that same-sex intimacy is alien to Ugandan culture. The chapter begins with a methodological discussion of the distinction and overlap between memory and history. It offers a historical account of the production of memory about the martyrdoms from the time of their occurrence to the present. It then offers an ethnographic account of contemporary memorialisation, arguing that Ugandans today relate to the question of sex in the story of the martyrdoms in the modes of disinterest, displacement, denial, and disidentification. Through a mapping of public memory and a historicisation of its narratives, the chapter makes visible the genealogies of homophobia as well as the possibilities for sexual dissidence that lurk within public culture.

This chapter explores xenophobic or Afrophobic language and its effects in perpetuating violence, hatred, and fear on non-South Africans. For decades, South Africa was subjected to colonial and apartheid regimes underpinned by governance ethos based on divisive policies that discriminate people based on race, gender, ethnicity, and place of origin. It argues that the derogatory language/vocabulary such as ‘amakwerekwere' migrants, ‘amagrigamba', ‘abelokufika', and aliens is used to describe and perpetuate xenophobia-Afrophobia. The author concludes that the daily articulation of derogatory labels does not only perpetuate xenophobic hatred and violence against fellow Africans (Afrophobia), but it also becomes the basis for the re-enforcement of oppressive, discriminatory, and violent tendencies of the past.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter pursues the systematic dailiness of devotional reading in the form of daily-reading “textbooks,” which came on the market toward the end of the nineteenth century, not all of them explicitly religious. Textbooks extracted and re-arranged for diurnal re-reading of the works of well-regarded writers of the century. These included Alfred Tennyson, whose In Memoriam, famous for its theme of protracted mourning but also for its reputation to console the bereaved, was re-published in excerpted form as Day to Day With Tennyson and many other similar titles. With its assumption of daily and apportioned reading the textbook aligns, furthermore, with Victorian reading systems and with discourses of time-thrift. In other words, late-Victorian devotion was often less about inculcating theological content than it was about materializing reading as non-narrative, modular portions and returning the reader regularly to a sense of time as a series of renewable moments.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Effective August 2021, Malaysia Assets Reset has launched Clustered Maintenance Planning and Execution (CMPE) department towards value focused asset management. To align with the department aspiration to continually generating optimum cashflow as well as staff upskilling, this study focuses on one of CMPE key result areas, with its main objective is to steer frontline maintenance work practice to value-generation perspective. Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) process is used in this study to analyze which maintenance tasks to proceed and which to forgo. It is performed by comparing the cost of frontline maintenance versus outsourcing for a maintenance task over a period of time. Elements taking into consideration for the cost calculation are materials, special tools, additional cost required to ensure internal resources competent to perform the job, outsourcing contract rate (on annual basis), and logistics associated costs. Currently, CBA assessment has been performed by CMPE on 15 potential maintenance tasks which was previously executed via outsourcing. Based on the cost saving/cost incurred derived from Frontline Maintenance versus outsourcing, 14 of the tasks are classified as cost-effective. Taking into consideration of clustered planning and scheduling, each planner are required to further assess on the perspective of manpower availability and re-strategize on manpower arrangement to execute the maintenance task via frontline maintenance. This CBA assessment not only resulted to an increase of 29% total planned frontline maintenance activities in 2022 versus pool of activities performed in 2021 but also contributed to additional technical skill sets to perform value-added maintenance tasks. The assessment via CBA has added value-generation perspective in identifying cost-effective and feasibility of the activities selected. By performing this study, it has supported towards achieving the company End State Aspiration.

Full textAbstract:
One postulated mechanism of tendon structural response to mechanical load is collagen fiber re-alignment. Recently, where collagen fiber re-alignment occurs during a tensile mechanical test has been shown to vary by tendon age and location in a postnatal developmental mouse supraspinatus tendon (SST) model [1]. It is thought that as the tendon matures and its collagen fibril network, collagen cross-links and collagen-matrix interactions develop, its ability to respond quickly to mechanical stimuli hastens [1]. Additionally, the insertion site and midsubstance of postnatal SST may develop differently and at different rates, providing a potential explanation for differences in fiber re-alignment behaviors at the insertion site and midsubstance at postnatal developmental time points [1]. However, collagen fiber re-alignment behavior, in response to mechanical load at a mature age and in comparison to developmental ages, have not been examined. Therefore, the objectives of this study are to locally measure: 1) fiber re-alignment during preconditioning and tensile mechanical testing and 2) to compare local differences in collagen fiber alignment and corresponding mechanical properties to address tissue response to mechanical load in the mature and postnatal developmental mouse SST. We hypothesize that 1) 90 day tendons will demonstrate the largest shift in fiber re-alignment during preconditioning, but will also re-align during the toe- and linear-regions. Additionally, we hypothesize that 2) mechanical properties and initial collagen fiber alignment will be greater in the midsubstance of the tendon compared to the tendon-to-bone insertion site at 90 days, 3) that mechanical properties will increase with age, and that 4) collagen fiber organization at the insertion site will decrease with age.

Abstract This paper describes in detail the design, engineering and testing conducted for 260 self-steering bogies in response to a bid from SNIM (Société Nationale Industrielle et Minière), in Mauritania, Africa. Severe environmental conditions in Mauritania, caused by the presence of sand, contribute to accelerated wheel tread wear. This in combination with asymmetric wheel wear typically experienced with the standard three-piece bogie, results in poor wheel life. A steering bogie improves wheel life by allowing the axles to self-align, thus reducing asymmetric wheel wear occurrence. Bogie behavior is explained by comparing the stiffness characteristics of self-steering bogies and standard three-piece bogies. High bogie stiffness keeps a truck square as it travels on the track, thus improving its dynamic response on tangent track. Split type friction wedges are used together with heavy-duty suspension system to obtain high bogie shear stiffness and vertical damping characteristics. An elastic shear pad between the roller bearings and the side frame pedestal roof allows the axles to self-align in curves, giving the truck its self-steering characteristic. The truck design is unique as the standard AAR unit guide bracket construction point and angle were changed to provide the alignment for the unique combination of axle spacing and wheel diameter. It utilizes 1000 mm diameter wheels and a wheel base of 1800 mm. The Consolequip steering bogie has been engineered to improve dynamic response on tangent track. This is done by increasing bogie interaxle shear stiffness which increases the threshold of truck hunting. Stability tests with service worn wheels confirmed stability speed to exceed operating speeds used by SNIM network. Preliminary projections have estimated an improvement of up to 50% in wheel life by reducing asymmetric wheel wear and the number of times they are re-profiled.

Orbital debris is rapidly becoming a more prevalent and alarming obstacle that, without immediate intervention, will undoubtedly become disastrous for human activity in space. The University of Glasgow’s microsatellite society, GU Orbit, has taken action to equip its 3U CubeSat ASTRAEUS-01 with a drag sail de-orbit device. This payload represents a simple and low-cost solution for the mitigation of debris in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) and is expected de- orbit the CubeSat within 12 to 24 months, depending on solar activity. These aspects are deemed fundamental for the mission and align with GU Orbit’s ethics of promoting space sustainability and accessibility. As a student society, the aim of this research is to demonstrate the viability of a drag sail technology in the absence of large monetary investment.a In this article, the studies on the structure, material and Hold-Down and Release Mechanism (HDRM) of the drag sail system are evaluated and briefly discussed. The discussion starts by illustrating the 7m2 quasi-rhombic drag sail that will deploy to increase the satellite's atmospheric drag and allow the spacecraft to lose altitude and re-enter the atmosphere. Various aspects of the geometry and folding technique used to fit the drag sail on the CubeSat are analysed. Phenomena of material degradation such as thermal and oxygen degradation have been accounted for in the design to mitigate their effect over the duration of the mission. Tape spring booms coiled around a spool will release the drag sail from its folded state maintained throughout the mission. These have been dimensioned through a mathematical model in order to provide optimum deployment dynamics for the drag sail. The paper describes also how a simple and economic nichrome burn-wire HDRM has been integrated with the drag sail design to trigger the release sequence of the cover doors and the drag sail itself.

Robert Duncan Milne (1844-99), from Cupar, Fife, was a pioneering author of science fiction stories, most of which appeared in San Francisco’s Argonaut magazine in the 1880s and ’90s. SF historian Sam Moskowitz credits Milne with being the first full-time SF writer, and his contribution to the genre is arguably greater than anyone else including Stevenson and Conan Doyle, yet it has all but disappeared into oblivion. Milne was fascinated by science. He drew on the work of Scottish physicists and inventors such as James Clark Maxwell and Alexander Graham Bell into the possibilities of electromagnetic forces and new communications media to overcome distances in space and time. Milne wrote about visual time-travelling long before H.G. Wells. He foresaw virtual ‘tele-presencing’, remote surveillance, mobile phones and worldwide satellite communications – not to mention climate change, scientific terrorism and drone warfare, cryogenics and molecular reengineering. Milne also wrote on alien life forms, artificial immortality, identity theft and personality exchange, lost worlds and the rediscovery of extinct species. ‘A New Palingenesis’, originally published in The Argonaut on July 7th 1883, and adapted in this comic, is a secular version of the resurrection myth. Mary Shelley was the first scientiser of the occult to rework the supernatural idea of reanimating the dead through the mysterious powers of electricity in Frankenstein (1818). In Milne’s story, in which Doctor S- dissolves his terminally ill wife’s body in order to bring her back to life in restored health, is a striking, further modernisation of Frankenstein, to reflect late-nineteenth century interest in electromagnetic science and spiritualism. In particular, it is a retelling of Shelley’s narrative strand about Frankenstein’s aborted attempt to shape a female mate for his creature, but also his misogynistic ambition to bypass the sexual principle in reproducing life altogether. By doing so, Milne interfused Shelley’s updating of the Promethean myth with others. ‘A New Palingenesis’ is also a version of Pygmalion and his male-ordered, wish-fulfilling desire to animate his idealised female sculpture, Galatea from Ovid’s Metamorphoses, perhaps giving a positive twist to Orpheus’s attempt to bring his corpse-bride Eurydice back from the underworld as well? With its basis in spiritualist ideas about the soul as a kind of electrical intelligence, detachable from the body but a material entity nonetheless, Doctor S- treats his wife as an ‘intelligent battery’. He is thus able to preserve her personality after death and renew her body simultaneously because that captured electrical intelligence also carries a DNA-like code for rebuilding the individual organism itself from its chemical constituents. The descriptions of the experiment and the body’s gradual re-materialisation are among Milne’s most visually impressive, anticipating the X-raylike anatomisation and reversal of Griffin’s disappearance process in Wells’s The Invisible Man (1897). In the context of the 1880s, it must have been a compelling scientisation of the paranormal, combining highly technical descriptions of the Doctor’s system of electrically linked glass coffins with ghostly imagery. It is both dramatic and highly visual, even cinematic in its descriptions, and is here brought to life in the form of a comic.
