Prevention of corruption risks during customs procedures: typology and signs

The article examines the theoretical and practical problems of determining the essence of corruption risks in the implementation of customs procedures, its signs within the limits of its customs and legal support. The definition of “administrative and legal provision of customs affairs” is given. The essence of the category “corruption risk in the sphere of implementation of customs procedures” has been determined. It has been found that corruption-inducing factors in the activities of officials of customs bodies are formed both in the sphere of organization and management of state customs affairs, and arise from the abuse of power and official position by officials of customs bodies and violations of the established procedure for carrying out customs procedures. The scientific approach is supported, that it is advisable to divide the factors of corruption risks in the implementation of customs procedures into external and internal. It was established that the customs procedure is a law-enforcement activity of customs authorities and their officials, aimed at the implementation of their powers regarding the organization of the movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border of Ukraine, ensuring compliance with customs rules. It was determined that the customs procedure is aimed at maintaining the regime of legality in matters of organizing the movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border of Ukraine. It has been proven that the elements of the structure of the implementation of customs procedures should include: customs control procedures; customs clearance procedures; tax and customs payment procedures. It has been established that customs control and customs clearance are the main areas of activity of customs authorities, which are carried out by performing customs formalities, which are components of customs procedures. An understanding of the legal nature of customs procedures as a legal regime operating at the facilities and in the places where they are carried out has been established. The content and criteria for the distribution of customs regimes in the context of customs regime rules are determined. Signs of corruption risks during customs procedures have been identified.

Sustainability of public administration in Ukraine: analysis of determinants

The article is dedicated to substantiating the thesis that the public administration institution in Ukraine does not exhibit characteristics of stability, meaning it is currently unable to effectively withstand changes, pressures, or contemporary challenges.
 It specifies that the modern interpretation of the content and essence of public administration in Ukraine has two paradigmatic aspects (scientific and normative), the difference between which significantly varies in orientation, methodological approach, focus, and goal characteristics.
 There is a dynamic of their gradual convergence. This indicates a balanced and effective approach to the management of public affairs. However, the public administration institution in Ukraine has not gained normative consolidation, and its further development is justified by the reform of the public service institution, optimization of specific aspects of executive and local self-government activities.
 In justifying the characterization of the public administration institution in Ukraine in terms of hidden stability, it is also pointed out that: 1) citizens’ trust in executive authorities and local self-government remains at a low level, with no stable increase observed; 2) the standard of living in Ukraine is extremely low, and there is no noticeable dynamics towards improvement; 3) the activities of public administrations still do not meet the standards of the SIGMA Program.
 It is determined that the stability of the public administration institution in Ukraine can also be assessed based on indicators of the effectiveness of managing public affairs.
 In summary, the apparent stability observed at first glance conceals some shortcomings and inefficiencies in the public affairs management system, resulting in a lack of clear accountability and effective monitoring, as well as a high risk of corruption, abuse of power, social tensions, etc.

Perception of Research Misconduct in a Spanish University

AbstractSeveral studies on research misconduct have already explored and discussed its potential occurrence in universities across different countries. However, little is known about this issue in Spain, a paradigmatic context due to its consolidated scientific evaluation system, which relies heavily on metrics. The present article attempts to fill this gap in the literature through an empirical study undertaken in a specific university: Universitat Jaume I (Castelló). The study was based on a survey with closed and open questions; almost half the total population of the university’s researchers participated (505 out of 1030, i.e. 49.03%), yielding a representative sample of different academic career stages and areas of knowledge. Results show that 71.68% (n = 362) of the respondents consider at least one form of misconduct to be proliferating in their area of knowledge at the national level. This figure falls to 48.95% (n = 247) in reference to misconduct in their own institution. The most frequently reported types of misconduct linked to life with colleagues are especially the use of personal influence (in evaluation or review processes); lax supervision of doctoral theses; and the abuse of power over people in lower positions. Personal ambitions and pressure from the evaluation system are regarded as the most influential causes of misconduct proliferation, according to academics at this Spanish university.

Power, Performance, and Legitimacy

Abstract: Democracies today remain in a potent and protracted recession, and they have retreated from the ideological struggle against autocracy. We can renew the world's democratic momentum through power, performance, and legitimacy. Democracies must generate economic prosperity and opportunity while containing corruption, crime, and abuses of power, to reinvigorate support for democracy across regions and generations. Liberal democracies cannot be weak or retreat; they must exert their power to safeguard free and fair elections, independent media, and the rule of law. Nowhere in the world where dictatorships repress rights, censor information, and propagate disinformation can democracy be secure. Every defense of democracy is a source of inspiration and instruction. We must get serious again about promoting the values, experiences, requirements, and institutions of democracy. And we must do so on the scale, with the scope and ease of access in many languages, required to save it.

Minoritized Communities in Iran: The Struggle for Unconditional Equality

Following the tragic murder of Jina Mahsa Amini, a Kurdish woman, in 2022, subsequent protests in 2022–23 presented a significant intersectional challenge to the Islamic Republic of Iran's (IRI) political order, revealing deep-seated issues of ethnic, economic, gender, and political discrimination. Originating in the Kurdish region, these protests quickly spread across Iran and its diaspora, offering a glimpse of potential intersectional solidarity cutting across ethnic, gender, and religious lines. Notably, Kurds and Baluchis played a leading role in the protests, bearing the highest toll in terms of lives lost and injuries sustained. The Iranian regime responded ruthlessly, employing military violence to supress dissent and systematically dehumanizing these communities in an attempt to undermine their vocal opposition to the exclusionary and hierarchical rule rooted in Persian and Shiite dominance. Throughout history, the Kurds have consistently stood at the vanguard of resistance against the political authority in Tehran, as well as challenging the dominance of Persian and Shiite supremacy. This enduring opposition is instrumental to understanding the widespread, well-articulated, and mobilized resistance to the IRI's abuses of power. This resistance finds its epitome in the Women, Life, Freedom social movement.1

Wenn das Böse von Gott kommt…

Abstract The article begins by noting a discrepancy between systematic-theological discourse of God, which speaks of ideal qualities, and biblical discourse of God, which does not refrain from associating God with evil, and analyzes this in more detail in a first section. The argument then turns to biblical texts and establishes that, especially where hopes rest on Yhwh as the only God, the authors of biblical texts seem to assume that God is also behind evil. Since most of the texts that see evil together with God are fictional narratives, the lessons drawn are pragmatic in the sense that they are warnings against abuse of power (Saul), aggression and attempts at destruction (Noah and Jonah) and insight into the background of evil (evil spirit, Satan, human culpability, omnipotence and uniqueness) rather than systematic considerations of the attributes of God.

Assessment of sexual beliefs among "drug naive male" patients attending psychiatry OPD in a teaching institution: A cross-sectional study.

The basic objective of any civilization is to preserve a happy family. The quality of one's sexual encounters is crucial to a happy marriage. Couples' dissatisfaction in this area may be the cause of several social, psychological, and medical issues. The way reality is interpreted, which shapes behaviors and emotions, is established by beliefs. These beliefs, which are among the most frequent causes of male sexual problems, include those relating to high performance, women's sexual enjoyment, and sexual conservatism. To identify the misconceptions about sexuality among psychiatry patients. Method This cross-sectional study was carried out at the School of Medical Sciences and Research, Sharda University. We enrolled 200 samples and it is assessed through Sexual Beliefs Questionnaire (Male version). Sexual beliefs were assessed in different domains as well as overall sexual belief score was also estimated. The different domains in which the sexual beliefs were scored were sexual conservatism, female sexual power, macho belief, beliefs about women's sexual satisfaction, restrictive attitude toward sex, and sex as an abuse of men's power. The development of both psychiatric and sexological care will benefit from the early identification of the intricate relationships between psychopathology, the adverse effects of antipsychotic medicines, and sexuality. However, longitudinal studies are needed to anticipate the relationship more accurately between sexual dysfunction and sexual beliefs at a larger sample size. Sexual beliefs are significant contributors to sexual dysfunction.

Analisis Mengenai Diskresi dengan Freies Ermessen

This discretion has consequences from the concept of a welfare state law, where discretionary authority is a necessity for the state to implement welfare for society effectively and efficiently. Discretion also acts as a substitute or workaround for weaknesses in regulations, enabling governments to respond and handle unforeseen situations in a manner consistent with general principles of good governance. The aim of this research is to investigate and identify effective monitoring and accountability mechanisms for the use of Freies Ermessen in the legal system in order to increase integrity and fairness in decision making. The research method used in this research is a qualitative approach with descriptive methods and literature studies. A qualitative approach was chosen because it provides the ability to deepen and understand complex phenomena and allows researchers to explore various perspectives and relevant contexts. The research results show that regarding the use of Freies Ermessen in the legal system, there is a need to develop effective monitoring and accountability mechanisms. Transparency in the decision-making process, setting clear standards, and community involvement are key to ensuring that discretion is used with integrity and in accordance with legal principles. In addition, the role of an independent court system in examining decisions taken and strengthening accountability mechanisms for authority holders is essential in preventing abuse of power.

행정절차법상 ‘위반사실 등의 공표’에 관한 소고

Under the ｢Administrative Procedure Act｣, the “publication of violations, etc.” was enacted in 2022. Many individual laws stipulate the publication of violations, and each individual law has inconsistent party protection regulations, and there are even individual laws that do not have party protection regulations. Administrative law academia has consistently pointed out these problems, and such efforts have resulted in the publication of violations under the ｢Administrative Procedure Act｣. However, it would be reasonable to admit only when the public's public interest in preventing the spread of damage to important interests such as public health and safety is recognized because the announcement of the violation can cause significant damage to the party and even if the party's protection regulations are established. On the other hand, it is questionable whether it is reasonable to utilize the public announcement of violations for the public interest of managing the national treasury through voluntary redemption of subsidies. Therefore, it is thought that in the future, research on the publication of violations under the ｢Administrative Procedure Act｣ and existing individual laws should be conducted together. In addition, if you analyze the provisions of the publication of violations under the ｢Administrative Procedure Act｣, administrative power may be abused, and the procedural regulations are not yet complete in the enforcement decree and enforcement regulations for the protection of the parties. In particular, unlike the announcement of violations, preliminary measures such as the initiation of investigation of ingredients do not have the opportunity to give prior notice and submit opinions that can be received in the disposal process as a pre-disposal step, and such measures are reported to the media to guarantee the people's right to know, causing irreparable damage to the parties. Therefore, external experts should be involved in each publication stage to prevent abuse of administrative power, and the protection of the parties should be strengthened by quickly supplementing specific procedures for publication. In addition, the announcement of violations under the ｢Administrative Procedure Act｣ should be revised to include pre-disposal measures, and it is necessary to consider the introduction of a preliminary relief system as well as strengthening post-mortem remedies for damages.

Spiritual-political sovereignties: 3HO-Punjabi Sikh relations, pluriversal identities, and power dynamics

ABSTRACT This article explores cultural dynamics, integrative tensions, and collaborations between 3HO–Sikh Dharma and Punjabi Sikh communities in North America over the last fifty-years. Sikh Dharma's 1979 declaration as a ‘Sovereign Khalsa Spiritual Nation’ raises questions about Sikh spiritual and political sovereignty and its relationship to institutions of authority within transnational, diasporic, multicultural, and multigenerational contexts. This paper addresses communal experiences of trauma and contemporary human rights issues caused by abuses of power. It contemplates the role of the next generation in shaping Sikh futures, emphasizing productive possibilities of humility and shared sovereignties to bridge communal divides through affective empathy.

Inserted Religious Life as a Path to Authentic Consecrated Chastity—The Witness of Non-Violent Solidarity of Alice Domon and José Aldunate Lyon in Latin America 1967–1983

The reception of the Decree Perfectae caritatis in Latin America can be understood in connection with the emergence of the preferential option for the poor and the call for consecrated religious life to the insertion since the 1960s. As part of the existing link between conciliar texts and renewal movements, it is worth highlighting the testimony of religious life lived in solidarity with the poor as a way of practicing chastity and incorporating sexuality. This topic is explored through the life stories of two individuals, Alice Domon in Argentina (1937–1977) and José Aldunate Lyon in Chile (1917–2019), within the framework of related studies on ethnographic ecclesiology and the theology of renewed religious life. Amidst military governments, institutional violence, abuses of power, and human rights violations, the lives of these two consecrated individuals showcase an alternative path marked by self-emptying, unwavering fidelity, non-violent action, and prophetic denunciation. The pursuit of integration between contemplative and apostolic aspects in the love for God and the poor, along with the defense of human rights in solidarity with the victims and their families, are some of the keys that define an adapted understanding of religious life in the Latin American context.

The Dynamics of the Elements of Abuse of Authority in the Authority of the Administrative Court After the Enactment of the Latest Job Creation Law

<p class="TableParagraph"><em>Abuse of authority as part of testing the discretionary authority of the State Administrative Court has changed with the presence of Law No. 6 of 2023 concerning Job Creation. Changes can be seen in Article 175 number 2 of the UUCK which expands discretion by eliminating the requirement that it is contrary to the law. However, Law No. 30 of 2014 also does not emphasize the definition of authority testing, thus creating problems, namely the blurring of the parameters of discretion testing by the State Administrative Court Judges. The author also conducts a comparative study with France to find trends in global solutions in solving problems. This research uses normative legal research methods that analyze applicable laws and regulations accompanied by literature studies in the form of books, journals, and other literature. The dynamics of the elements of Abuse of Authority from the UUAP to the birth of the existence of the UUCK has brought the consequences of a paradigmatic shift in the concept of discretion, which was originally limited to be freed because of the elimination of the requirement not to conflict with the provisions of the legislation. However, considering that discretion is actually only the (free) authority possessed by a State Administrative Officer to make a decision and/or take an action, the decision and/or action as a manifestation of the discretionary authority is still bound by the provisions of Article 52 of the UUAP regarding the legal requirements of a decision. The State Administrative Justice System in France and Indonesia has a difference that lies in the phrase used, in France using the term abuse of power, or what is called detournement de pouvoir. This reason is used if an official in issuing an administrative decision deliberately uses his/her authority for purposes that deviate from the original purpose/intention, in contrast to Indonesia which defines abuse of authority more complexly as a form of exceeding authority, mixing authority, and arbitrariness.</em></p>

Presidential Campaign Authority in The General Election Law

The President's Authority to Campaign during the General Election has recently become an interesting topic of discourse among the public. Some people think that the President should not campaign to maintain the neutrality of elections, the President's dignity, and so on. However, on the other hand, the public thinks that it is okay for the President to campaign because basically it is not the norm in the laws and regulations that has been violated. Therefore, this research aims to examine the President's authority to campaign in Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections. This research is a qualitative research with a normative approach that uses legislative regulations as the main focus to elaborate and explain comprehensively the authority of the President's campaign in the General Election Law. The data used in this research is secondary data that researchers obtained from statutory regulations, scientific journals, books, credible websites, and a number of other sources that are commonly used in every research. These data were analyzed using grammatical and teleological legal interpretation methods. The result in this articel show 1. There are two different opinions, namely those who agree with the president's campaign with the argument of maintaining ELECTION neutrality, potentially causing abuse of power, and maintaining presidential ethics. But on the other hand, they think it's okay because no rules have been violated. 2. Article 281 paragraph 1 of Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections regulates the President's ability to campaign as long as he does not use state facilities and takes leave. However, this article was interpreted differently by Bivitri Susanti because it relates to the President who will nominate again and the President must be registered in the campaign team. Apart from that, Zainal Arifin Mukhtar also has the same opinion that the President's campaign could cause legal complications and could potentially lead to the practice of nepotism. 3. The researcher does not agree with the two constitutional experts because there is an inconsistency in Bivitri Susanti's argument that initially the president was not allowed to campaign by interpreting market 281 paragraph 1 as relating to the incumbent President, but in the next sentence it seems to allow it by requiring the President to be included in the campaign team. Regarding Zainal Arifin Mukhtar's opinion, researchers consider that campaigning and nepotism are two very different things. Can campaigning is something that has not happened and is stated in the laws and regulations, whereas nepotism is something that has already happened and needs to be proven first and it does not necessarily mean that the President campaigning is nepotism. The researcher adheres firmly to the principles of Nullum Delictum, Nulla poena sine praevia lege poenali" and the fiqh rule "Al-Ashlu Fil Muamalah Ibahah Hatta Yadulla Daliil 'Ala Tahrimiha". The researcher believes that article 281 paragraph 1 has provided a comprehensive explanation regarding these abilities and the limits of the President. if you want to campaign.

The Mayor of Batam Ex-Officio as Head of The Batam Concession Agency: Cross-Jurisdictional Authority and Legal Problems

<em><span><span lang="EN-US">This research aims to explore the impact of granting the position of Head of the Batam Concession Agency to the Mayor of Batam on an ex-officio basis on the principle of "check and balance" in the governance of Batam and to assess the extent to which this policy is consistent with the principles of regional autonomy and decentralization, which are constitutional cornerstones in Indonesia. Through a normative legal research method using secondary data, this study reveals that the policy of granting ex-officio positions has a significant impact on the principle of "check and balance" with a potential reduction in the effectiveness of internal and external supervision, as well as an increased potential for abuse of power that may affect the integrity of decision-making. In addition, this policy raises essential questions about consistency with regional autonomy and decentralization principles, the main pillars of Indonesia's governance system. The principle of regional autonomy aims to give authority to local governments to manage their affairs without excessive interference from the central government. This research provides important insights into the consequences and consistency of government policies that may affect the fundamental principles of regional governance.</span></span></em>

The view on the Situation in Afghanistan in the Chinese Media within China’s National Security

The withdrawal of US troops and the rapid takeover of Kabul by the Taliban (recognized as a terrorist organization and banned in the Russian Federation) in Afghanistan in 2021 shocked the world community. Even though the PRC actively opposes international terrorism, which the Taliban movement (recognized as a terrorist organization and banned in the Russian Federation) is accused of supporting, it has become one of the few countries that have begun to cooperate with the new Afghan regime. In the light of these events, China’s view of the situation in Afghanistan is puzzling, in particular, we are interested in how these events are reported in Chinese press. In this paper, first, we trace the evolution of the PRC’s official position on Afghanistan, and then, using frame analysis, analyze the coverage of the events of 2021 in the PRC by focusing on three authoritative newspapers, Chinese language versions of “People’s Daily”, “Global Times”, and “The Paper”. Our study demonstrates that the Chinese press supports China’s foreign policy in general and its policy in Afghanistan in particular. Stability in Afghanistan and cooperation with the Taliban (recognized as a terrorist organization and banned in the Russian Federation) on issues of Uighur separatism are important for China’s national security. In the Chinese media, the Taliban (recognized as a terrorist organization and banned in the Russian Federation) are not presented as accomplices of terrorism, which China is fighting within the framework of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization but are described as representatives of the Afghan people who aim to restore the security and stability in the country. When discussing the Taliban (recognized as a terrorist organization and banned in the Russian Federation) takeover in the Chinese media, the focus is often not on the crimes of the new regime - repression, abuse of power, restriction of rights, but on shortcoming of the US policy. The latter reflects an important discursive practice in the Chinese media, “othering” the United States.
