A Novel Capacitor Deionization Performance Study Based on Carbon Nanorods/MnO2 Composite Material

The Earth abounds in water resources; however, only 0.4% of the freshwater resources are suitable for drinking. The scarcity of freshwater resources has a severe impact on the sustainable development of human society. Desalination is regarded as one of the most effective solutions. In this study, a research approach integrating materials and devices was utilized to synthesize manganese oxide-coated carbon nanospheres (CS@MnO2). Experimental results demonstrated that the system, by combining the distinctive performance merits of the CS@MnO2 material and the balanced desalination features, exhibited outstanding desalination performance. In the EDS elemental mapping analysis, the relatively feeble signal of carbon was ascribed to the encapsulation of MnO2 on the outer surface of CS. Through computational TGA analysis, the mass fraction of carbon in CS@MnO2-2 was determined to be approximately 51.2%. The excellent hydrophilicity of the material facilitated the permeation of the salt solution throughout the electrode, thereby enhancing the capacitance. CS@MnO2-2 manifested a high salt adsorption capacity of 27.42 mg g⁻¹ and the fastest electrosorption rate of 7.81 mg g⁻¹ min⁻¹. During 50 adsorption desorption cycles, the adsorption capacity showed good results. The adsorption kinetics and adsorption isotherm fitting indicated that the desalination process involved electrostatic and multilayer adsorption. This study holds great significance for reducing the cost of desalinated water and guaranteeing a sustainable supply of freshwater resources.

Research on the Integration of Ecological Environment Space Governance and Rule of Law

Ecological environment protection is an important global issue. With the rapid development of economy and the continuous growth of population, the problem of ecological environment has become increasingly prominent, which has become a key factor restricting the sustainable development of human society. As the world’s largest developing country, China has made remarkable achievements in ecological environment protection, but still faces many challenges. In recent years, spatial governance and the rule of law have been widely considered as important means to achieve ecological and environmental protection. Spatial governance improves resource utilization efficiency by optimizing the spatial layout of the ecological environment; the rule of law ensures the effective implementation of ecological and environmental protection measures by regulating human behavior. Therefore, it is of great theoretical and practical significance to study the spatial governance and rule of law mechanism of ecological environment protection.

Decoupling evolution of water footprint of energy and its driving factors: Evidence from Northeast China.

Energy and water are interlinked and inseparable resources of vital importance to the survival and development of human society. Exploring the relationship between energy and water is of great practical significance for the sustainable development of resources. The uneven regional distribution of energy and water in China has exacerbated energy-related water shortages. Base on the water footprint of energy (WFE), this paper takes Northeast China, the old industrial base, as the research object, and explores the regional distribution characteristics and development trend of WFE, so as to provide quantitative basis for the development of regional energy transformation in coordination with energy and water. This study uses the ISO model and the decoupling model, and analyzes the spatial and temporal changes in the water footprint (WF) of energies and the decoupling effects in Northeast China from the perspective of energy production. The findings show: (1) the WFE grew slowly, and the WF of power gradually exceeded that of fossil energy; (2) the spatial distribution of WFE was unbalanced, with higher WF of fossil energy in Heilongjiang and higher WF of power in Jilin and Liaoning; (3) the decoupling status of WFE from GDP was better than that of WFE from total water consumption. This study also analyzes the driving factors of indicators of water endowment, economic development, energy consumption, environmental governance and life quality, on the WFE based on the Lasso model, and provide policy implications for the coordinated development of energy and water in Northeast China.

Catalyst-Free Nitrogen Fixation by Microdroplets through a Radical-Mediated Disproportionation Mechanism under Ambient Conditions.

Nitrogen fixation is essential for the sustainable development of both human society and the environment. Due to the chemical inertness of the N≡N bond, the traditional Haber-Bosch process operates under extreme conditions, making nitrogen fixation under ambient conditions highly desirable but challenging. In this study, we present an ultrasonic atomizing microdroplet method that achieves nitrogen fixation using water and air under ambient conditions in a rationally designed sealed device, without the need for any catalyst. The total nitrogen fixation rate achieved is 6.99 μmol/h, yielding ammonium as the reduction product and nitrite and nitrate as the oxidation products, with hydrogen peroxide produced as a byproduct at a rate of 4.29 μmol/h. Using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, we captured reactive species, including hydrogen, hydroxyl, singlet oxygen, superoxide anion, and NO radicals. In conjunction with in situ mass spectrometry (MS) and isotope labeling, we confirmed the presence of nitrogen-containing intermediates, such as HN═NOH+•, H2N-N(OH)2+•, HNO+, and NH2OH+•. Supported by these findings and theoretical calculations, we propose a radical-mediated nitrogen disproportionation mechanism. Simulations of naturally occurring condensed microdroplets also demonstrated nitrogen redox fixation. This microdroplet-based method not only offers a potential pathway for nitrogen fixation in practical applications and sustainable development but also deepens our understanding of the natural nitrogen cycle.

Sustainable practices in lead acid battery recycling

Recycling automotive batteries is a vital practice in the context of sustainability. Purchasing power in developing and emerging economies has increased dramatically over the past decades, especially when considering the proliferation of consumer cars worldwide. Consequently, the growing manufacturing volume of automotive batteries inevitably leads to increased battery waste, thus placing significant pressure on the sustainable development of human society. Recycling lead-acid batteries as a sustainable product is not only environmentally beneficial but also economically beneficial. A typical new lead-acid battery contains up to 80% recycled lead, and the plastic and battery components are also recyclable. When combined, almost all environmentally hazardous materials in the battery can be recycled. In this paper, we will study the recycling of lead-acid batteries used in fuel-powered cars. The results show that 54.4% of the metals in the battery, 28% of the plastics, and 17% of the liquids can be recycled, which provides materials for the manufacture of new batteries or for other uses.

Building energy management model integrating rule-based control algorithm and genetic algorithm

Energy is a crucial material foundation for the development of human society. Building energy consumption accounts for a significant proportion of global energy consumption. Optimizing building energy management is of great significance for achieving sustainable development. A building energy management model that integrates rule-based control algorithm and genetic algorithm is proposed, aiming to optimize building energy utilization and reduce operating costs. Mathematical models for different devices in the building energy system are established, and the rule-based control algorithm is used to provide system decision support. Then, the genetic algorithm is integrated to address the complexity and uncertainty of energy optimization problems. The comparative test results showed that the proposed fusion algorithm had higher fitness values and faster convergence speed. The root mean square errors of the algorithm in the training and testing sets were 43.6544 and 43.6844, with the lowest error and highest accuracy among the four algorithms. The simulation experiment results showed that the building energy management model integrating rule-based control algorithm and genetic algorithm had energy expenditures of 788.3 yuan and 967.6 yuan for two types of buildings, respectively. Taking Building 1 as an example, compared with Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), Beetle Antennae Search and Particle Swarm Optimization (BAS-PSO) algorithm, and Long Short-Term Memory-Convolutional Neural Network (LSTM-CNN) algorithm, the proposed model reduced the cost of energy consumption optimization by 39.30%, 28.32%, and 20.20%, respectively. Overall, the proposed building energy management model effectively reduces operating costs, utilizes building energy, and contributes to daily building energy management and decision support.

Changes in and prediction of land carrying capacity in Fujian Province from a dietary nutrition perspective

Resources and land carrying capacity are vital to the survival and development of human society and form the foundation for ensuring food security. However, evaluating land carrying capacity solely based on grain production is overly simplistic. A comprehensive assessment from the perspective of dietary nutrition is needed to more accurately reflect the actual carrying capacity of land. This study evaluates the land carrying capacity of Fujian Province from the perspectives of three major nutrients: calories, protein, and fat, using statistical data from 2007 to 2022. It employs models such as the nutrient supply model, land carrying capacity model, center of gravity model, and grey prediction model to evaluate the land carrying capacity situation in Fujian Province during 2007–2022 and to predict the trends in land carrying capacity from 2023 to 2032. The results indicate that, during the study period, the following were observed: (1) Total food production in Fujian Province significantly increased, primarily dominated by plant-based foods, though there has also been a proportional increase in animal-based foods, demonstrating distinct regional production characteristics. (2) The overall supply of food nutrients in Fujian Province rose, with the greatest increase observed in fat supply. The main sources of nutrients are grains, meat, and aquatic products. (3) The land carrying capacity of Fujian Province, viewed through different nutrient perspectives, has increased, with the southeastern region exhibiting a higher carrying capacity compared to the northwest. Over time, the spatial imbalance in land carrying capacity has decreased, with the centroid shifting from south to north. (4) The degree of nutrient restriction in Fujian Province has decreased, leading to an improvement in of land carrying capacity, with fewer constraints observed in inland cities. Xiamen and Quanzhou face triple nutrient restrictions, Fuzhou and other areas face dual restrictions, Zhangzhou faces single restrictions, while the remaining cities have sufficient nutrient availability. The comprehensive land carrying capacity index of Fujian Province has improved, transitioning from a “critical overload” to an “excess of balance” state. (5) From 2023 to 2032, both the land carrying capacity and the resident population of Fujian Province are predicted to increase. While the constraint on protein will weaken, constraints on fat and calories will remain significant. The land carrying capacity is expected to remain in a state of “critical overload”, with the conflict between people and land continuing to be severe.

Dynamic Evolution and Trade-Off/Synergistic Effects of Ecosystem Services in the Northeast Tiger and Leopard National Park from 2000 to 2022

To explore the dynamic evolution of ecosystem services in the last 22 years, and to measure the trade-off and synergy between ecosystem services, it is of great significance to realize the ecological protection and sustainable development of the Northeast Tiger and Leopard National Park (NTLNP). Therefore, based on land use changes, soil and meteorological data, this research analyzed the changes of land use in NTLNP from 2000 to 2022. The habitat quality (HQ), carbon storage (CS), water conservation (WC) and soil conservation (SC) in the NTLNP were evaluated by the InVEST model, and the synergy/trade-off among different ecosystem services were analyzed quantitatively. The results are as follows: (1) Land use in NTLNP changed from broad-leaved forest to mixed and coniferous forest from 2000 to 2022. (2) Average HQ increased over time, while CS increased in coniferous and mixed forest areas, but decreased in cropland and grassland areas. WC decreased in the central and southern regions. SC decreased in coniferous forests in the southern part of the study area. (3) HQ showed a trade-off relationship with CS, WC, and SC of 50%, mainly distributed in the southwest of NTLNP at higher elevations. CS showed synergistic correlations with WC and SC, mainly distributed in grassland and broad-leaved forest areas in the southwest; areas showing trade-off relationships are mainly distributed in cropland and broad-leaved forest areas. WC and SC showed a synergistic correlation in 90.2% of the areas. In the past 22 years, ecosystem service capacity of NTLNP is increasing; in the future, we should pay more attention to the optimization of NTLNP function zoning, and gradually explore and improve the national park management system, to balance the relationship between the protection of ecological resources and the development of human society and economy.

THE EVOLUTION OF INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL JUDICIAL COOPERATION AT THE LEVEL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION

In this article I have developed the essential aspects related to international judicial cooperation in criminal matters at the European level: the need for cooperation. The development of human society in general, and the development of technology in particular, have increasingly facilitated and determined the development of relations between states. An important aspect of human progress has been the facilitation of the freedom of movement of individuals and goods, which, although it represents a simplification of daily life and an added value, being beneficial to society, has also created the chance for criminals to lose more easily follow. The progress of mankind in all fields has also generated the diversification of forms of violation of the criminal law, which increasingly exceeds the national borders of the states, not infrequently becoming a form of international violation of the criminal law. The increase in international criminality required the mobilization of states in organizing and intensifying the fight against criminality by adopting legal instruments recognized worldwide in an organized framework. International criminal judicial cooperation between states was thus regulated.

How Do Driving Factors Affect the Ecological Restoration Degree in Different Basins? A Case Study of Six River Basins in Yunnan, China

Ecological space provides human beings with the material resources and living environment needed for life; it is the basis for human survival and development, and ecological restoration is directly related to the sustainable development of human society. As an important ecological security barrier in China, the ecological restoration of the six river basins in Yunnan Province directly affects the ecological security of surrounding provinces and neighboring countries. At present, there is still a lack of research on the differences in ecological restoration between river basins. Therefore, we assessed the spatiotemporal differences in ecological restoration degree in terms of ecosystem patterns, ecosystem quality, and ecosystem services in Yunnan Province from 2000 to 2019 and explored their influencing factors in the six river basins. The results showed the following: ① The six river basins differed in terms of changes in ecosystem patterns over the 20-year period, with the share of settlement ecosystems increasing in the six river basins. The most pronounced changes in ecosystem patterns occurred in the Nu River Basin. There were also differences in the ecosystem transformation priorities of the six river basins. In addition to this, among the four selected indicators, fractional vegetation cover, net primary productivity, and soil conservation increased, but water retention exhibited a stable deteriorating trend. ② Yunnan Province’s ecological restoration degree as a whole is in a relatively stable state. There is no significant improvement or significant deterioration in the region. The best ecological restoration degree of the six river basins is the Pearl River Basin, with a trend of gradual stabilization improvement, and the worst is the Nu River Basin, with a state of gradual stabilization deterioration. ③ The factors that most influence the Ecological Restoration Index (ERI) of the six river basins are mean annual precipitation change rate, mean annual precipitation, annual mean temperature, ecological engineering, and border index. The precipitation change rate was the most important factor influencing ecological restoration in the six river basins, while the border index was the most important factor influencing the differences in ERI in the six river basins. In the future, ecological restoration measures in the six river basins of Yunnan Province should take into account regional differences, strengthen governmental supervision, and emphasize the impact of border factors on neighboring river basins to promote a balanced degree of ecological restoration in Yunnan Province as a whole.

Fabrication of a Composite Paper-Based Material for Fog Collection and Purification Enabled by Passive Radiative Cooling and Wettability Regulation.

Obtaining clean freshwater resources with high efficiency is a global concern and plays a vital role in the sustainable development of human society. In this study, purified freshwater was obtained via condensation and collection of water and organic fog using a composite paper-based material with spectral selectivity and proper wettability. By reflecting ∼91% of sunlight and radiating >96% of thermal infrared rays, the composite paper-based material can reach a daytime maximum temperature drop of 5.2 °C compared to pristine paper and 6.7 °C compared to environmental temperature. Furthermore, surface wettability can be easily adjusted by optimizing the wettability of the nanoparticles. Under the combined effect of excellent passive daytime radiative cooling performance and an appropriate wettability range, a maximum water collection rate of 332.09 mg/cm2·h under dynamic vapor atmosphere and 245.10 mg/cm2·h under static vapor atmosphere were obtained. Even for mixed organic fogs, purified water can be collected after organic fog condensation because of its high selectivity for different liquids. In addition, the composite paper-based material exhibited excellent abrasion resistance and has great potential for long-term use and reuse. This composite paper-based material can obtain freshwater via water and organic fog condensation and collection under direct sunlight, which is helpful in alleviating freshwater shortages.

Failure mode analysis and dynamic response prediction of fully confined reinforced concrete slabs under blast loading

Abstract With the development of human society, various accidental explosions and terrorist attacks have occurred frequently, posing a great threat to the safety of building structures. In order to improve the safety of building structure, the finite element model of reinforced concrete slab was established by ANSYS/LS-DYNA finite element analysis software. By comparing with the experimental results, the accuracy of the established finite element model was verified, and the failure modes of reinforced concrete slab under different scaled distances were analyzed. The effects of three damage factors: concrete compressive strength, protective layer thickness and reinforcement ratio on the dynamic response of the slab were analyzed. Based on the Π theory of dimensional analysis, the dimensionless relationship between the peak displacement of the mid-span of the plate and the scaled distance of the explosion is obtained. On the basis of a large number of numerical simulation results, the dimensionless relationship for quickly predicting the dynamic response of the plate is summarized. The results show that with the increase of scaled distance, the failure mode of the plate will gradually change from brittle shear failure to plastic bending failure. Increasing the compressive strength and reinforcement ratio of concrete and reducing the thickness of the protective layer can reduce the peak displacement of the mid-span of the slab and improve the anti-explosion performance of the slab. It is verified that the proposed dimensionless prediction relationship can better predict the dynamic response of reinforced concrete slabs at different scaled distances, so as to provide some reference for the field of structural anti-explosion.

Opportunities and challenges for managers within the East-European agriculture sector: Case study on Romania

Agriculture has always been essential to the development of human society, providing the food necessary for human survival. For the Romanian economy, agriculture is a very important sector in terms of the number of enterprises involved and the agricultural area used, but also because of the workforce employed in the sector. However, Romanian agriculture is a vulnerable sector, which has had to face several unfavourable events in recent years. The COVID-19 pandemic, the energy crisis, the conflict in Ukraine, and the lack of agricultural inputs have brought many risks for Romanian farmers in 2023, such as higher food prices and more expensive electricity for consumers. This paper aims to identify the perceptions of the managers regarding the outcomes of the recent events (the COVID-19 pandemic, the energy crisis, the conflict in Ukraine) on the future potential of agriculture in Romania and to determine their perceptions about the impact of other issues with which agricultural companies had to deal with in recent years (climate change, draught, inflation, governmental measures). Other goals of the paper were to find out the managers’ plans and prospects to potentially introduce or use new technologies and digitization within their own companies and uncover their assessments regarding the sector’s future within the European and international context. To identify these perspectives, qualitative research was carried out through in-depth interviews with respondents holding leadership positions within 16 Romanian agricultural companies. The data was analyzed in order to identify similarities and discrepancies within their statements and find corroborative ideas that could help improve the sector. The results of the paper showed how the COVID-19 pandemic and the unstable geo-political context along with other issues increased production costs, but favored digitization and technology. In the past years, because different events changed the European and Romanian economy, a lot of academic research has revolved around the areas of health, energy and technology. Therefore, the study brings elements of originality because of the theme and the approach, which provide valuable insights not only for Romania but for other countries in the region as well.

Climate Warming Will Exacerbate Unequal Exposure to Compound Flood‐Heatwave Extremes

AbstractCompound flood‐heatwave extremes (CFHWs) have threatened the sustainable development of human society and ecosystems. However, the disproportionate risks in regions with different economic development under a warming climate have not been quantified. This study carries out a global investigation on the future CFHWs under three scenarios based on 11 models from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6). Results reveal a 7.5‐fold increase in global annual CFHW days by 2100 under the intermediate greenhouse‐gas‐emission scenario SSP2‐4.5 compared to that in 1980. Under SSP2‐4.5, population exposure in low‐income countries in the late future (2071–2090) will be about 9‐fold higher than in high‐income countries compared to baseline period (1995–2014). Moreover, exposure of the poor groups living on less than $6.85/day will increase by nearly 28.1‐fold. Eastern Africa and South Asia are identified as particularly high‐risk regions, where large populations living in poverty face rapidly increasing CFHWs. These findings indicate that climate inequality will become more pronounced if climate warming continues without immediate effective measures. Our study also underscores the urgent need for mitigation and adaptation strategies against the future increasing CFHWs, especially for the vast low‐income and high‐risk regions.

A STUDY ON THE IMPACT OF DAIRY COMPANIES' SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY ON CONSUMERS' PURCHASING INTENTION

In the context of China's booming economy, the issue of corporate social responsibility frequently arises, impacting the sustainable development of human society. Dairy companies, an industry crucial to national health and nutrition, have garnered significant attention for fulfilling their social responsibilities. This study focuses on the field of dairy products. From the perspective of consumers, by reviewing and sorting out existing literature, the core variables involved are conceptually defined, providing a solid foundation for subsequent research. Based on the core variables, we constructed a theoretical model and proposed relevant hypotheses. To verify the hypothesis, this study uses a questionnaire survey method to collect the data required for empirical research. Finally, the empirical research results conclude that dairy companies' economic responsibility, safeguarding consumer rights, protecting the environment, and undertaking charitable activities all influence consumers' purchase intentions. The impact of dairy corporate social responsibility on consumer purchase intentions is significantly positive, with consumer corporate identity playing a partial mediating role and dependent self-construal positively moderating this impact. Following a thorough analysis, this study offers recommendations on how dairy companies can effectively fulfill their social responsibilities, thereby enhancing their strategic business operations.

This paper discusses the implication of Marxist ecological view of nature in the contemporary context, analyzes the current situation and challenges of the global ecological crisis, and deeply expounds the theoretical connotation of Marxist ecological view of nature and its response to contemporary problems. With the acceleration of industrialization and the continuous growth of population, the global ecological crisis has become increasingly prominent, which poses a serious threat to the sustainable development of human society. Marxist ecological view of nature emphasizes the dialectical unity of man and nature, the integrity of the ecosystem, and the importance of the construction of ecological civilization. Sex. It holds that the root of the ecological crisis lies in the excessive exploitation and utilization of natural resources by the capitalist mode of production, and that the fundamental way to solve the ecological crisis lies in changing the capitalist mode of production and realizing the ideals of socialism and communism. In contemporary practice, Marxist ecological view of nature provides important theoretical guidance and ideological weapons for countries to deal with ecological and environmental problems. By comparing and analyzing the current situation of international construction of ecological civilization, this paper reveals the uniqueness of Marxist ecological view of nature in the global construction of ecological civilization. Special advantages and value.

Evaluation and External Driving Factors Analysis of Water–Energy–Food Resilience Security—Based on Spatial Durbin Model and Four Provinces Along the Yellow River

Research on water–energy–food security is crucial for ensuring the sustainable development of human society. Building on the water–energy–food theory and resilience concepts, a novel perspective termed “resilience security” was proposed. This differs from traditional approaches focused on coordination security and efficiency security. An indicator evaluation system consisting of 29 indicators was developed. Panel data from 2009 to 2022 in 40 cities across Shandong, Shanxi, Henan, and Shaanxi Provinces along the Yellow River were used to assess local water–energy–food resilience security. The nine external driving factors were empirically analyzed in different provinces using a spatial Durbin model. The findings indicate that: (1) over the 14-year period, the water––energy–food resilience security of the sample transitioned from a near-exposure state to an initial resistance state; and (2) over the 14-year period, administrative power, market power, resource flow capacity, population density, industrial structure, urbanization level, scientific and technological inputs, environmental governance inputs, and spatial geographic factors significantly influenced regional water–energy–food resilience security, with notable variations across provinces.

Prehistoric Cultural Migration in the Middle–Lower Lishui Catchment of Central China in Response to Environmental Changes

Climate change and geological shifts were pivotal in the survival and development of ancient human societies, especially in densely populated regions like the middle and lower Lishui River Basin. This study explored the dynamic interactions between ancient human cultures and the region’s natural environment, using field research alongside geological, geomorphological, and archaeological data spanning from the late Paleolithic to the Neolithic periods. Our findings showed that prehistoric sites in the middle and lower Lishui River Basin were primarily located in the low hilly areas surrounding the lower basin during the Paleolithic era, a pattern shaped by the region’s geomorphology. Early human settlements were strategically positioned near the Lishui River, offering access to vital resources while minimizing flood risk. These locations provided flat terrain, abundant vegetation, and materials for tool-making, factors that supported a hunting and gathering lifestyle. As the coldest phase of the last glacial period approached, the transition from the Paleolithic to the Neolithic eras marked a period of significant behavioral adaptation. In response to the harsher environment, humans began settling on lower terraces and miniaturizing their stone tools, signaling a shift to more specialized hunting techniques. This adaptability and resilience marked the refinement of hunting economies during this period. With the onset of the Holocene epoch and a warmer climate, conditions for human habitation became more favorable. Societies began migrating from the hills to the fertile lower Lishui River Basin, heralding the Neolithic period. This era saw the emergence of settlements and the onset of early rice cultivation, marking the transition from a hunting–gathering economy to one centered on agriculture. By the Daxi period, these settlements had expanded, extending their influence throughout the region. In conclusion, this study underscores the critical roles of climate change and geological features in shaping human settlement patterns, economic activities, and cultural evolution in the middle and lower Lishui River Basin. Our findings offer valuable insights into the evolutionary processes of ancient human cultures in the region and provide a foundation to understand future challenges in sustainable development.

Dreptul muncii și securității sociale în lumea IA: provocări reale și soluții posibile

Humans as the essence of evolution have conditioned the development of human society through the ways in which they organize themselves and use materials, raw and otherwise, tools and instruments they have invented with a view of turning into account the aims of said development by labour. Changes occur in both parts of this relationship. Every historical age comprises, inter alia, the review of the man-labour relationship; the impact of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the contemporary society brings about a new dimension to this relationship. A defining characteristic of contemporary society is the fundamental role that is bestowed to human rights, including labour and social security law against the backdrop of human becoming. IA is an intrinsic component of this process and it has the double role of being a catalyst of general advancement and responsible to contribute to promoting and safeguarding fundamental rights. Updating and developing juridical regulation pertaining to the work and use of IA are imperative to the autonomy of labour and social security law, including by means of interacting with other branches of law and social science.
