The multiple patterns of factional influence: Evidence from the 2021 LDP presidential election

AbstractTraditionally, factions and seniority determined who became President of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and, thus, Japan's Prime Minister. Since the electoral reform of 1994, however, some scholars have argued that the role of factions has declined, and this has led to ongoing debates over the extent to which factions and other factors have helped determine who will become the leader of Japan's LDP. Using data from the 2021 LDP Presidential election, we find that it is not policy but factional affiliations that matter for LDP members in selecting their leader. In addition to this finding, we disaggregate faction and show that the influence of this political institution in LDP Presidential elections varies across different factions. We also find that electorally weaker LDP incumbents are more likely to support a candidate who is more popular among Japanese voters in general.

THE ROLE OF THE ISLAMIC COMMUNITY OF KOSOVO DURING THE YEARS 1989-1992

The goal of this study is to discuss the contribution made by the Islamic Community of Kosovo between 1989 and 1992. During this time, Kosovo underwent a number of significant developments, and the aforementioned religious institution was a part of them. This institution was able to successfully implement a number of positive actions for the Kosovo's Albanian population through its efforts. Therefore, this religious community played an important role as a participant in several popular organizations that were taking place in Kosovo, such as: the Demonstrations of 1989, the Reconciliation Movement 1990-1992, etc. Therefore, the influence of this religious institution, along with many other actors, has been of special importance for the Albanian people of Kosovo during the aforementioned period.

The Continuation of Reproduction in Higher Education - Exploring the Impact of Social Class on the Aspiration of Students Taking Postgraduate Entrance Examination in China

Along with the expansion of higher education in China, on the one hand, academic qualifications are depreciating at an alarming rate, and on the other hand, the competition for employment is becoming more and more competitive, thus, the graduate school fever has become an emerging social phenomenon in China. In order to understand the mechanism of reproduction of this new-emergent phenomenon, this study try to focus on the aspiration of students who would take part in the postgraduate entrance examination in 2023 with different family background. With Bourdieus toolkit (habitus, capital, doxa, etc.), the aspiration can be set in the individuas lifeworld, but also help us to bring macro structure in discussion. In the study, the influence of institution, family, peer group will be discussed. The study concludes that Postgraduate Entrance Examination is similar to the college entrance examination in that it serves the function of social reproduction in society.

Socio-ecological bases of personality formation in the family-school space

Relevance. Nowadays, families are actively engaging with schools and educators, communicating with educational institutions, including school management, teachers, psychologists, and social and special educators. However, the impact of this interaction on child development have not been sufficiently studied. Purpose. The need to study the process of interaction between family and school and to reveal the socio-ecological foundations of the child's personality formation within this interaction defines the research aim: to reveal aspects of personality formation in the family-school space and provide ways to optimise it. Methodology. To achieve this goal, the methods of analysis and synthesis, data systematisation, comparison, deduction and induction were used. Results. The study reveals the views of scholars on family-school interaction, describes models and approaches to family-school interaction, and identifies the most effective ones. The possibilities of family and school interaction in the framework of distance learning are described. The main aspects of the development of a child with special educational needs in the family-school space and the peculiarities of family-school interaction in inclusive education are described. The influence of the educational institution, as well as the influence of the family on the educational process and the formation of the child as a personality is analysed. On this basis, the contradictions that may arise in the interaction of family and school are considered. Conclusions. It has been determined that family-school interaction plays a crucial role in shaping a child's personality. The results of the study can be used by the management of educational institutions to improve the interaction between school and family, as well as by parents to understand the importance of their active participation in the educational process and to understand their influence on the formation of their children's personalities.

Assessing journals through a three-dimensional framework based on article citation, author and institution influence

Journal assessment is of great significance to promote the development of academic platforms. Citation analysis is a recognised tool to assess the citation performance of journals. However, due to the shortcomings such as the inflated Journal Impact Factor and heterogeneity of the citations, additional dimensions are necessary to be considered to balance with the article citation. This article constructs a three-dimensional journal assessment framework to measure the comprehensive influence of a journal based on article citation, author and institution influence. The CRITIC-Entropy weighting method is employed to calculate the weighted average scores for the three dimensions, respectively. Then, a newly defined Pareto-dominated set-based sum of TOPSIS score (PDS-based STS) approach is developed to assess the comprehensive influence of journals. A sample of 76 journals in Economics field is selected to demonstrate the effectiveness and validity of the proposed assessment method. The Chartered Association of Business Schools’ Academic Journal Guide 2021 (CABS-AJG 2021) which is an expert-based journal rating is chosen as a baseline model. It has been found that the assessment method using PDS-based STS shows a more rational journal ranking than that based on the Journal Impact Factor if using the CABS-AJG 2021’s ratings as the benchmark model.

Federal Development Institutions as a tool for ensuring economic security in the system of strategic planning of the region's economy: problems and prospects of development (on the example of the Far Eastern Federal District)

The article examines the role of development institutions in ensuring the economic security of the state. Within the framework of this study, an analysis of the impact of the results of the activities of the Far East Development Corporation on the socio-economic indicators of the Far Eastern Federal District was carried out, based on the results of which the need to improve the existing model of strategic economic planning in order to improve the efficiency of regional economic management is considered. The object of the study is the socio-economic development of the Russian Far Eastern Federal District, the subject of the study is the role of federal development institutions in ensuring the socio-economic development of the Far Eastern Federal District. The purpose of the study is to substantiate the need to form a strategic planning system and a management system for development institutions that ensure the implementation of economic security priorities. In order to perform research tasks, the article uses both general scientific methods such as analysis, comparison, generalization, and specific ones, including methods of econometric modeling such as the construction of a multifactorial linear regression model. The results of the study demonstrate the relevance of the introduction of economic cybernetics into the system of strategic planning of the economy. The analysis of the results of the activities of the joint-stock company "Corporation for the Development of the Far East", which ensures the attraction of investments to the points of advanced development of the Far East, through the construction of a multifactorial linear regression model demonstrates the absence of influence of this development institution on the dynamics of the gross regional product of the regions of the Far Eastern Federal District. The problems of the system of strategic planning of the economy and the functioning of development institutions noted in the article actualize the need to improve the existing model of strategic planning of the economy. The existing model of planning for the development of socio-economic development and ensuring economic security is formed on the basis of economic policy instruments applied within the framework of a market economy, while in order to solve the existing problem of disproportionate socio-economic development in the country, which poses a threat to national security, it is necessary to introduce centralized planning mechanisms that ensure the achievement of the set results the account of the specified resources, the formation of which is possible due to the current level of development of digital technologies and artificial intelligence and the available theoretical and methodological base in the face of economic cybernetics.

Судебная власть в системе средств защиты прав и свобод человека и гражданина

The article is devoted to the study of a number of problems related to the role of the judiciary in the system of means of protecting the rights and freedoms of man and citizen. The author substantiates the point of view that justice differs favorably from other human rights means by being connected by law and law in the substantive and procedural senses, which guarantees the true dominance of legal forms over extra-legal ones. Even if extrajudicial state authorities or local governments exercise their powers in order to realize the legitimate interests of rights holders, such activities should be based on the concept of preventive justice. Any illegal action or inaction of authorized subjects of the state apparatus is under the protective influence of the constitutional institution of subsequent judicial protection, if the right holder considers it necessary to resort to this form when other means have been exhausted.

This study examines the key factors that determine waqf decisions. The author performed a thorough examination of 21 publications released between 2019 and 2023, which were indexed by Scopus and sinta.kemdikbud.go.id. The objective of this analysis is to discern the factors that influence waqf decisions in the current body of literature. Prior to completing an extensive examination of the literature review to provide evidence for future research, data is gathered, examined, and assessed. Research findings indicate that multiple elements have been found to exert influence on waqf decisions. The factors encompassed in this list are age, education level, religiosity, attitudes, subjective norms, knowledge, understanding, income, performance expectations, business expectations, crowdfunding platform facilities, social incentives, experience, trust in waqf organisations, and waqif views. The decision was not influenced by the following factors: knowledge, employment, education, information medium, distance to the location of the waqf institution, faith in the waqf institution, fundraising approach, and social influence. Subsequent research endeavours should focus on investigating the determinants that impact waqf in order to enhance the level of waqf acceptability. This study has the potential to have substantial social ramifications for multiple parties engaged in waqf, including waqf institutions, waqifs, and waqf recipients.

Purpose: to involve parents, taking into account the individual needs of the child, in an active understanding of the problems of raising a child in a family. A conversation with parents, it helps educators create the appropriate conditions; ensure communication in the sphere of influence of the preschool institution on the child and family.

Settling environmental citizenship: The presentation of self in conservation encounters

AbstractFar from a settled fact, environmental citizenship is always in the making. In this article, we analyze how the settlers of a protected area in Patagonia, Argentina, seek to legitimize their claims for natural resources and territory through strategic representations of themselves. The self‐presentation molds not only their own political subjects, but also the public authority of the governing offices. We argue that the legitimization of public institutions is partial and fragmented, allowing settlers to legitimize their claims and become active producers of environmental citizenship. The conservation encounters reproduce social practices, cultural symbols, and governmental artifacts. In this way, they contribute to the affirmation of state authority and the hegemony of the nation‐state through their reproduction of the Patagonian imaginaries, while also curbing the sphere of influence of any particular institution.

How Male Gaze Can Influence the Perception of Art Pieces from the Psychiatric Art Collection of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences? (Case Study)

The objective of this paper is to comprehend the environmental impact, specifically the influence of the psychiatric institution, on a work of art created within the context of psychiatric treatment. Additionally, the paper focuses on exploring the artwork’s impact on the viewer, and examining how we perceive these drawings – whether as neutral observers or through a sexualized lens. The intention is to present a collection of artworks produced by a female patient during her hospitalization in the 1950s and 1960s at the National Institute of Psychiatry and Neurology in Budapest. For the purposes of this study, the artist has been given the pseudonym “Antonia”, as her identity is only known within the institutional records through her marital status, identification by her husband’s name, and an approximate age at the time of admission. Antonia’s drawings depict women engaged in various everyday situations, such as enjoying an elegant dinner or dancing, and also include portraits of a young, attractive, and sexually appealing individual. When interpreting these drawings, it is impossible to avoid being influenced by the perspective from which the figures, seemingly vulnerable and exposed even in their elegant attire, offer their creator a glimpse into their emotions, anxieties, and fears. The aim of this study is to demonstrate that, even in contemporary times, decades after their creation, when approached from the perspectives of art history, psychology, and sociology, these drawings can only be accessed through the patriarchal lens that initially categorized them as part of the museum canon and included them in the collection during their respective era. Departing from this foundational standpoint proves to be a challenging endeavor.

The establishment mode of Chinese MNEs abroad and the Belt and Road Initiative: insights from a strategy tripod perspective

PurposeEmerging-market multinational enterprises (MNEs) have pushed institutional factors to the cutting-edge of international business research. As for Chinese MNEs, the importance of institutions has been strengthened since the Chinese government launched the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), which seeks to promote a comprehensive platform for cooperation among countries. This study aims to investigate the role played by the BRI as an institutional factor moderating the influence of other institution-, industry- and firm-specific factors on establishment mode choice by Chinese MNEs.Design/methodology/approachDrawing on the strategy tripod, a perspective claiming that a firm's strategies are the result of internal, industrial and institutional conditions, this study develops a number of hypotheses that are tested with data on 1,076 outward foreign direct investments (OFDIs) of Chinese MNEs between 2013 and 2021.FindingsThe results show that the BRI moderates the influence of both the firm's prior international acquisition experience and Chinese government's OFDI restrictions on the establishment by means of an acquisition. They also report that this moderating effect does not apply for acquisition experience in the host country nor institutional distance.Originality/valueThis study contributes to reinforce the importance of institutions as the third leg of a strategy tripod when explaining international behavior of Chinese MNEs. It also suggests that the BRI is a diplomatic tool that may act as a substitute for the firm's resources and may mitigate the negative influence of other external factors.

Evaluation of the scientific production of the Instituto de Investigaciones en Microbiología y Parasitología Médica (UBA-CONICET)

The Institute of Research in Medical Microbiology and Parasitology (IMPaM) of the University of Buenos Aires (UBA) and the National Council of Scientific and Technical Research (CONICET) was evaluated using the bibliometric tool SciVal to identify its strengths and weaknesses in terms of scientific production. The research areas, the institution's influence in the research field, financing, and available resources were analyzed. It was found that more than 50% of the articles are open access, and it is suggested to encourage publication in open access journals without embargo periods. The most representative thematic areas are related to the institution's social objective, with Medicine, Immunology and Microbiology, and Biochemistry, Genetics, and Molecular Biology being the most prominent. Additionally, it was concluded that international collaboration is essential for scientific research. Despite its high production of open access articles, IMPaM is below average in Weighted Citation Impact by Field and needs to strengthen international collaboration links and expand thematic diversity to maintain its relevance in scientific research. Overall, the SciVal evaluation provided a useful guide to improve the institution's scientific production and its impact on the international scientific community.

Suwerenność parlamentu a stabilność ustroju politycznego Wielkiej Brytanii w perspektywie konsekwencji Brexitu

Regime changes that occurred in Great Britain as the effect of Brexit have led to explicit reactivation of the sovereignty of parliament principle. Main warrant of political stability is identified with the Parliament of the United Kingdom. Main hypothesis of this article is that stabilizing activities that are undertaken by this institution influence three possible layers: stabilizing the community, political system and authorities. This overgrowth of competences can affect constitutional fundamentals of the regime. Probable effect of this ongoing process of changes will be endeavours to codify a constitution. Method that is employed in this paper is a method of system analysis, which seems to be the most adequate approach for researches of political stability. Considerations presented in the paper are included within the remit of political theory, political comparativism and constitutional systems.

Openness of Authorities and Trust in The Region: Assessment Tools Based on Social Mining

The study attempts to use scientometric analysis methods, social mining tools, and econometric modeling to show the relationship between the level of trust in regional economic systems and the openness of authorities. At the same time, trust is considered a risk factor in the development of economic systems due to the significant influence of this informal institution on the activities of economic entities with decision-making. The scientometric analysis of publications on the topic of the work made it possible to establish an exponential increase in the number of scientific articles on trust, openness, social networks, and the corresponding analytical tools. The constructed network maps of keywords made it possible to identify the largest thematic clusters reflecting the concentration of scientific works in research areas, firstly, related to data, algorithms, and technologies for their analysis, network users, and secondly, reflecting various aspects of organizational and individual behavior and what this behavior determines. The quantitative substantiation of the relationship between the openness of public authorities and the trust and involvement of the population was carried out by conducting factor analysis and constructing a regression model. Due to this, the study proved that the level of trust is more influenced by user engagement, which allows us to show the importance of a qualitative representation of the activities of authorities in social networks to increase the level of trust.

THE INFLUENCE OF THE PRESIDENCY INSTITUTE ON THE UKRAINIAN INDEPENDENT ORTHODOX CHURCH FORMATION

The current political situation in Ukraine shows a deep crisis in relations in many spheres of social life, including interfaith relations. The purpose of the article is to highlight the problems of the political influence of the presidency institution during the Ukrainian statehood birth and to apply this knowledge to the realities of modern society. The Orthodox Church is the dominant confession in Ukraine, but today it is in the stage of division into different jurisdictions. It has been proven that the unification of the divided branches of Ukrainian Orthodoxy will contribute to the consolidation of Ukrainian society, especially in the presence of open external aggression. It was established that the presidency institution itself plays an extremely important role in state policy in the religious sphere. The article analyzes that Ukrainian Presidents actively participated in the religious policy of the state and contributed to the formation of the United Local Church. Therefore, the church is an important factor in the consolidation of the divided Ukrainian society, therefore the state policy in this area should be directed to support the project of the Local Church.

Institutions for long-term problems: the influence of the Dutch Delta Programme on forward-looking climate adaptation responses at the local level

Climate change requires forward-looking policy responses. Developing such responses can be challenging for governments and, therefore, specific long-term institutions have been proposed for overcoming short-termism. However, the impacts of such institutions have been underexplored. In this paper, we analyze the influence of a long-term institution, the Dutch Delta Programme, on local governments’ decisions. The paper results are based on an analysis of climate adaptation strategies, investment plans and adaptation projects and interviews with policymakers, across seven Dutch municipalities. Results indicate that while local adaptation strategies are largely forward looking, adaptation projects tend to focus on solving present-day issues. We found that the Delta Programme enabled local governments to make forward-looking decisions and policies, by: (1) providing knowledge about climate vulnerabilities, (2) creating a broader framing of the issue of climate change, and (3) providing guidance for developing local climate adaptation policies.
