Constitutionalization as a category of constitutional law science

Constitutionalization as a category of constitutional law science

Public policy: at the forefront of training a new generation of political experts.

The article is devoted to a comprehensive analysis of public policy as a scientific and academic category. Public policy is one of the fastest growing scientific and educational areas in the 21st century. This trend should not be considered solely as a tribute to fashion; with the right approach, public policy can become the cornerstone in the study of the political process and in training a new generation of experts in the field of political management and decision-making. Moscow University is one of the leaders in the development of this area, introducing public policy at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. The article examines the history of public policy, shows the main theoretical and methodological prerequisites for its study, and the reasons for its institutionalization in different countries of the world. It is shown that public policy is a multifaceted category, the understanding of which varies depending on theoretical, managerial and ideological perspectives. At the same time, it is the most important educational and research area, which is associated with the fundamental principles of the functioning of the state, issues of increasing the efficiency of public administration, and harmonizing the interests of the state and society. The author proves the point of view that universities involved in organizing the training of public policy experts are today at the forefront of the processes of modernization and increasing the efficiency of the entire political and administrative apparatus. Public policy experts trained by Russian universities in general and Moscow University in particular are future multidisciplinary professionals capable of managing complex socio-political processes, increasing the efficiency of the state apparatus, and building a competent balance between state and public interests.

Empowering scientific literacy skills through an integrated SSCS learning model with RQA strategies

Understanding science is needed in the context of scientific literacy. Scientific literacy cannot be separated from the role of reading literacy. Literacy is a prerequisite component so that students can have four life competencies namely Creativity, Critical Thinking, Collaboration, and Communication (4C). This research is quasi-experimental research with a pretest and post-test non-equivalent control group design. The population is students from SMP Negeri 9 and 17 with a class VIII sample of 105 students. The instrument for assessing students' scientific literacy skills is in the form of multiple-choice tests and essays prepared to represent indicators of scientific literacy, namely: 1) identifying scientific problems/phenomena, 2) interpreting data and drawing conclusions, 3) understanding science concepts, and 4) applying science concepts to life. Data on students' scientific literacy abilities analyzed using the t-test. using the SPSS ver. 20. The research results obtained show that there is a difference in scientific literacy between the SSCS model treatment group integrated with RQA learning strategies and the conventional model. The SSCS+RQA class experienced an increase of 52.48%. The significant increase changed the scientific literacy category from low to very high. Meanwhile, the RQA control class experienced an increase of 33.89%. This increase was also able to change the scientific literacy category from low to high.

Scientometric Analysis: An Emerging Tool in Veterinary and Animal Scientific Research.

The present study is an evaluation of published papers in the field of scientometrics-bibliometrics in veterinary or animal studies. The objective was the quantitative evaluation of the scientific content and the bibliometric details of papers that had used scientometrics as a methodological approach to assess various topics within the broad field of veterinary or animal studies. For the search of published papers, the Web of Science database was used; the search string {ALL FIELDS = [scientometric* OR bibliometric*]} AND {ALL FIELDS = [veterinary OR animal*]} was employed. In all, 163 papers were evaluated individually. There was a progressive increase in the number of papers published annually (slope 0.314 ± 0.063) which originated from 58 countries, mostly from the United States of America (n = 24) and 306 organizations. The databases employed most frequently for record search were the Web of Science, Scopus and PubMed (in 105, 60 and 21 papers, respectively); the median timespan of the searches was 25 years (interquartile range (IQR): 31) and the median number of records was 1082.5 (IQR: 4708) (min.: 14, max.: 207,894). The papers were published in 106 journals (Animals (n = 21), Scientometrics (n = 8)), classified into 56 Web of Science categories ('veterinary sciences' (n = 26 journals)). Searches related to 88 different topics. There were 517 unique keywords in the papers, among which 'bibliometric(s)' (n = 45) occurred most often. The median number of co-authors per paper was 4 (IQR: 3) (min.: 1, max.: 17), with a total of 689 individual authors. Most papers (n = 110 (67.5%)) were published under open access. The median number of citations received per paper was 4 (IQR: 9) (max.: 68) and the h-index was 21. In multivariable analysis, the higher number of cited references in papers and the inclusion of specific animal species in the record search emerged as significant for the number of citations received per paper yearly.

The mass person and their speech roles of a simpleton, a buffoon, a mentor in the Russian prose of the 1920s

The scientific review deals with the understanding of the image of the mass person in the literature of the 1920s. The focus of our attention includes both the actual literary texts of the writers of this decade, as well as fundamentally important studies devoted to this problem. Historical-typological and comparative methods are chosen as leading research technologies. They allow us to study the subjective organization of prose works and create a scientific classification of the most representative phenomena in this field. Modern achievements in narrative theory are taken into account. It is widely known that in the revolutionary breakdown of the entire symbolic system of being the ratio of everydayness and non-everydayness has changed. The role of the public dimension increased, human life went out onto the street, the square, and there was a tilt towards the collectivist "we". An ordinary person found their voice and inevitably became, to some extent, a historical "figure". For writers, this person was of interest as a subject of consciousness and a subject of speech. The range of speech roles of the mass person is quite large. There is a simpleton, and a buffoon, and a joker, and a performer, and a cheat, and a singer, and a limited person, and a fool, and a teaching mentor, and a narrow-minded judge. A mass person represents himself/herself in texts in different ways: 1) in the individual lines assigned to him/her by the author, 2) in detailed monologues, and, finally, 3) in prose. In the latter case comically-colored and holistic forms of fantasy-narrative became extremely active: there was a demand for a narrator figure capable of replacing the traditional figure of an "omniscient" narrator close to the author. This narrator completely subordinates the narrative, and the phraseological point of view of the character who initiated the storytelling event begins to dominate the text. The scientific review deals with the works of M.M. Zoshchenko, P.S. Romanov, A.N. Tolstoy, V.Ya. Shishkov, M.Ya. Kozyrev, Y.L. Slezkin. At the same time, attention is paid to such opposite speech reflections of the mass person as a harmless buffoon who turns every thing and every being around themselves into a theater of life, and a severely instructive mentor, distinguished by speech aggression. All these examples show that the traditional "little person" (familiar from previous literature and becoming a "mass person" in new historical conditions and gaining the status of the initiator of storytelling) does not at the same time acquire proper personal development and reveals his or her stereotypicality and shallowness.

FEATURES OF STATE ADMINISTRATION IN THE CONDITIONS OF GLOBALIZATION

The article reveals the concept and content of globalization. It is emphasized that in modern conditions, the concept of «globalization» has entered scientific circulation along with the key categories of modern science and has become the subject of wide discussions. The article is devoted to the peculiarities of state administration under the conditions of globalization. It is indicated that the sphere of public administration is affected by several processes at once – adaptation, transformation and modernization. Adaptation is a forced process of adjustment, adaptation and arrangement of the state administration system of the national state to the qualitatively new processes of globalization. Transformation is a mechanism for reflecting the radical changes that the world and each national system of public administration are undergoing in the context of globalization. Modernization is one of the options for social development, which simultaneously improves and accumulates quantitative and qualitative changes in the state administration system in the context of globalization. These processes are the main basic factors of the transformation of the modern world, according to them the national state and its system of public administration are changing. It is emphasized that the factor of public administration is an indicator of the extent to which the modern national state is able to resist or adapt to the processes of globalization. The main problems of globalization in modern conditions and their impact on the sphere of public administration are revealed. It is emphasized that globalization puts forward new requirements, which should become effective and efficient means of solving complex contradictions that arise in the course of the joint functioning of national states in the world space. The influence of governmental and non-governmental organizations on management processes is shown. It is indicated that the main mechanism of activity of international non-governmental organizations in the period of globalization is the mobilization of the opinion of the world community. It has been proven that at the current stage, globalization leads to a kind of «updating» of the structure of the world, and as a result – corrects national systems of state administration. In addition, it changes the strategies of economic, political and cultural development, creating a complete interdependence of the world, which is the basis of its functioning. The growing rates of interdependence unify and standardize the conditions and factors of the development of individual states, acting as peculiar indicators of determining the level of sustainability of the development of national states.

Integration of Personal Safety in Students Training on the Specialty “Civil Safety” at Technical Institutions of Higher Education

Security is considered a legitimate goal of every society. In recent years of the pandemic and then the war in Ukraine, the issue of the security paradigm has become particularly relevant. It prompts a revision of conceptual approaches to the formation of human personal security competencies and especially the mechanisms and ways of ensuring it in society and the state in the present conditions. Therefore, in theory, national and international security concepts are being developed, and more recently, individual, social, and global security. This indicates, among other things, a significant expansion of new dimensions of security when political independence, territorial integrity, and viability of the country, as well as the survival and development of its inhabitants, are at stake. Security in itself should have the status of a fundamental human right. Many publicly discussed security issues are related to technical solutions. Debates are underway not only about society's attitude to security, but also about what research and for what purpose it is conducting or has conducted in this direction. This also applies to the educational environment. The article defines and substantiates the principles of the formation of personal safety of students, provides an essential characteristic of the pedagogical process of formation of personal safety of students, considers the technology of formation of personal safety of students based on the competence approach, reveals the content of the competences of the individual in the sphere of life safety. The purpose of this article is to study the process of forming the personal safety of students in the system of professional education in higher technical institutions of a technical profile. The methodology on which the research is grounded is based on the methodological principles of systematicity and an interdisciplinary approach and includes the use of a complex of general scientific methods, namely explanation, comparison, classification, generalization, and systematization. Based on them, a model of forming students' competencies in the life safety field was built. Within the framework of our research, the following results were achieved: the views of scientists on the issue of the formation of security competencies among students in the new context of the construction of Ukrainian society in conditions of war were summarized; the principles of forming students' personal safety based on the competence approach are substantiated; tasks for the development of students' competencies in the field of life safety are formulated; a structural model of students' competencies and the process of their formation in the field of life safety was built. The conclusions allow us to state that the problem of security is complex and multifaceted, since conflicts, wars or unstable state structures often have not only local significance, but also global consequences due to a closely interconnected and globalized world. The formation of personal safety competencies in students as future specialists is important as a basis for self-preservation, self-development and self-improvement. For this purpose, educational professional programs of technical universities should include fundamental educational disciplines that will ensure the development of worldview principles of life safety and determine generally accepted safety needs and generally recognized safety mechanisms.

Peculiarities of the Use of Professionally Oriented Vocabulary by Future Agrarians while Learning English

The article is devoted to the study of the peculiarities of bilingualism of students of non-linguistic specialties when learning English. The terminological vocabulary allows accurate and accessible presentation of a content of this subject area and ensures correct understanding of the text. To represent the relations of information units (represented in terms), commonly used words are needed, which requires the use of ordinary language and leads to an appearance of ambiguity during their use. Purpose. The objective of study is consideration of linguistic particularities of agrarian professionally oriented vocabulary, which is used while studying a foreign language at the university. The methodology covers a comprehensive set of theoretical and empirical research methods, including the analysis of scientific sources, regulatory documents, pedagogical observation, description, classification and systematization. The study was related to students of the second year of full-time study of the agronomy specialty in Vinnytsia National Agrarian University, Ukraine. Results. The fact that the terms carry the main semantic load that in the literature of the agrarian direction, occupying the main place among other general literary and official words, is illustrated with examples. A detailed (conceptual) description of the agrarian industry has been carried out. It is noted that English-language agronomic texts differ in syntactic structure and complexity and are characterized by adverbial, infinitive and gerund inflections, as well as other purely language constructions, which in turn complicate text understanding and pose additional challenges to a translator. It is proved that the dictionary of agricultural terms is replenished by borrowing lexical units from everyday speech and by reinterpreting or narrowing their meanings. It is indicated that the colloquial language is enriched due to the expansion of the meanings of special terminological units. This dynamic two-way process testifies to a language development and translation complication activity due to the need to select the appropriate translation variant of multi-meaning lexical units. The investigation concluded that the clustering of many terminological constructions requires a correct division into immediate components and a serious familiarization with reference materials, a deeper immersion in the subject area. It is shown that agrarian terminology needs careful lexical and grammatical analysis in order to determine the optimal ways of its use. However, terminology alone is not sufficient to transfer or disseminate knowledge, as knowledge is culturally defined in human society.

A REVIEW OF STUDIES ON THE THEORY OF COST STICKINESS WITH BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS

Costs, which are of great importance for businesses, are evaluated in two groups as fixed and variable costs. According to the traditional cost theory, both fixed and variable costs increase and decrease symmetrically at the relevant activity level. However, in recent years, as an alternative to this approach of the traditional cost theory, opinions have emerged that costs may not move symmetrically but asymmetrically depending on the increase or decrease of the activity level. In this framework, the aim of this study is to present conceptual information about this view, which is put forward as an alternative to the traditional cost theory, and to conduct a bibliometric analysis of international studies on the subject . In the study, international literature was searched and Web of Science database was used. In addition, the relationships between the data obtained in the study were presented by creating visual network maps through the "VOSviewer" program. According to the results of the analysis, the most studies on cost stickiness were conducted in 2021 with 64 publications. 90% of the studies were published as articles. 15,197 citations were made to 685 publications, a rate of 22.19% per publication. The researchers who published the most on cost stickiness with 8 publications were Banker, Rajiv D. and Naoum V.C. The highest number of publications in Web of Science categories on cost stickiness was in Economics with approximately 44%. Again, the highest number of citations was in Economics with approximately 69% and the highest number of publications in this field was in Corporate Governance with approximately 32.4%. 62% of the publications were in journals indexed in the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI). 99% of the studies were conducted in English. Approximately 26% of the studies were published by Emerald Group Publishing. The study is important in terms of determining the studies on cost stickiness theory in accounting science and the relationship between these studies.

Non-Singular Convoluted Matrix Collaborative with Filtering and Sampling Techniques

Due to the comprehensive and accessible knowledge they provide, social media platforms are developed as prominent technologies. The community strategy remains as a repository of millions of individuals for numerous application, include evaluations concerning health, services preferences investigation, and numerous others. And use this information, social media network personalized recommendation algorithms allow the user to interactively choose their alternatives via inter networks. It makes reasonable because content - based recommendation model should indeed be adequately arranged to work out the enormous quantity of information that users of social media has contributed in recent decades. In order to examine huge quantities of information (i.e., big data) efficiently, the findings suggest a beginning for something like a scientific and adaptable classification algorithm. The Fried and Function f Matrix Collaboration Recommend (F-FMCR) approach, which would be founded on a distribution personalized recommendation system that employs inter technologies for social networking sites, provides recommendations to those who use the network about some of the other individuals who have their objectives. An entity paradigm has evolved that is appropriate for assessing different concepts. Using sampling methods and Non - singular Matrix Collaborative Filtering methods, this architecture contains three elements (i.e., agencies) entitled tweeting collections agent, information retrieval agent, and networked recommendation systems agent. Here on Sentiment 140 collection, significant experiments were carried out, as well as the findings are evaluated with the present prediction models. Findings from experiments indicate demonstrated, when compared to current methodologies, the developed F-FMCR approach is superior in terms of recommended effectiveness, recommendation time, and average absolute inaccuracy.

Мир объективного знания и социально-экономическая реальность (К. Поппер & К. Маркс)

The growing specialization and formalization of economic knowledge threatens to break away from the general scientific base that forms the worldview of the researcher. An urgent task is presented in the reintegration of basic methodological principles and categories of science into modern social science and economic theory. The article conducts a comparative analysis of the works of K. Marx and K. Popper, who made revolutionary changes in the methodology and ideological attitudes (conceptual frameworks) of scientific knowledge. Marx’s contribution focuses on dialectical and historical materialism, the doctrine of the economic basis of society and the change of socio-economic formations; Popper’s contribution focuses on his trial and error method with falsifying interpretation of results and the concept of successive three worlds of the universe. Popper’s criticisms of Marxist doctrine (essentialism, elements of mythology, teleologism) and the counterarguments of consistent Marxists are evaluated. The paper characterizes Popper’s positions on the realism of scientific knowledge, the world of predispositions, flexible management in animate and inanimate nature, the world of mental states of consciousness and the world of the objective content of thinking. Their commonality with the provisions of dialectical and historical materialism (the material nature of objective reality, the theory of reflection, the role of objective mental forms and ideological social relations) in the formation of the ‘world of objective knowledge’ is shown. The insufficiency of Popper’s epistemology for the study of the economic basis of social life is revealed. Based on a structural and logical analysis of the methodological principles and theoretical positions of Marx and Popper, the paper outlines the paths to the development of a system of concepts that brings together the complementary results of their apparently opposing research programs. Also presented are sources showing the relevance of the ideas of Marx and Popper in modern methodological and socio-economic literature. It is concluded that the world of objective knowledge (the key category of Popper’s social science) is part of the socio-economic life of society (in its Marxist interpretation), which, in turn, is incomplete without taking into account the realities of this world and needs additional study from the appropriate angle.

Global trends and topics in CDK7 inhibitor research: a bibliometric analysis.

CDK7 has been demonstrated to play a crucial role in the initiation and progression of malignancy. Therefore, targeting CDK7, which regulates the transcription process, has emerged as a new promising approach for treating cancer. Research on CDK7 inhibitors has significantly increased over the past 2decades, with almost 600 related papers in the Web of Science Core Collection database. To effectively identify future research hotspots and potential future directions, it is crucial to systematically review and visually present the research on this topic from a comprehensive viewpoint, ensuring scientific reliability. This study performed bibliometric analysis via CiteSpace and VOSviewer scientometrics analysis software to examine data on the publication of articles on CDK7 inhibitors over the past 2decades; the data included country of publication, author names, institution names, scientific categories, cited journals, and keywords related to the field of CDK7 inhibitors. This bibliometric analysis included 426 publications from 41 different nations, referencing a total of 15,892 sources. Research associated with CDK7 inhibitors has rapidly expanded since 2016, and the US and China are the two countries with the highest publication output among the countries and institutes that produce literature on CDK7 inhibitors. Furthermore, the US is the country that most frequently engages in international cooperation. The evolution of keywords identifying antitumor strategies related to CDK7-mediated cellular transcription processes has been the research focus in recent years. In this study, we identified research efforts and their evolving patterns and predicted advances in the CDK7 inhibitor field. The knowledge structure of CDK7 inhibitors encompasses pharmacological mechanisms, therapeutic targets, and cancer treatment strategies. The primary objectives of contemporary research are to discover the processes underlying cancer progression, identify specific signaling pathways, and develop effective clinical medicines.

Identification of morphologically similar genera based on reproductive systems and immature stages: a case study of Anastatus and Mesocomys (Hymenoptera: Eupelmidae)

Abstract Parallel or convergent evolution may result in phenotypically closely similar species. Many studies have reported that using solely traditional external morphological features can result in misidentification. Here, we discuss using the reproductive systems and immature developmental stages for scientific classification in Eupelmidae (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea), exemplifying with Anastatus Motschulsky and Mesocomys Cameron (Eupelmidae, Eupelminae). Results show that there are at least 6 distinct differences in the immature stages and the reproductive systems of the adults between species of the 2 genera: (1) the terminal ends of the left and right ovarioles are connected together in the studied species of Anastatus but not in Mesocomys, (2) the base of the lateral oviduct of Anastatus has a diverticulum that is lobate-shaped, whereas this diverticulum is spherical in Mesocomys, (3) the peduncle of the egg of Anastatus is significantly longer than that of Mesocomys, (4) the head capsule of the terminal instar larvae of Anastatus is uniformly translucent, whereas in Mesocomys it has a brown pattern, (5) the ocelli of the Anastatus pupa are smooth and slightly raised whereas the ocelli of Mesocomys each have a long filament each, and (6) the phallobase of adult male Anastatus is sharp basally but rounded in Mesocomys. Our findings not only provide novel insights for the differentiation of similar genera that can be difficult to distinguish in the immature stages but also provide a more comprehensive theoretical basis for clarifying the evolutionary and phylogenic status of Anastatus and Mesocomys.

Geographical Entity Management Model Based on Multi-Classification

Scientific and logical classification is crucial for efficient information storage, management, and sharing. However, there are numerous existing classification systems for geographical entities, and the categories to which the same geographical entity belongs are often different in the business databases constructed according to different classification systems, which brings great obstacles to the management and sharing of geographical information. This study analyzes the complexities of multiple classifications of geographical entities and proposes a multi-classification model for geographical entities based on directed hypergraph theory. This model integrates and transforms different classification systems for the same geographical entity, creating a unified method for expressing multiple classifications. We also designed a data structure to support this unified expression. By implementing this model, the study enables the effective management of geographical entity data, facilitating improved sharing and the exchange of geographical information across different industries and applications. In practical, the multi-classification model proposed in this paper allows geographical entities from different classification systems to be stored and managed within a single geographical database. Data views are then used to provide tailored services to various industry sectors and business applications. This approach effectively reduces data duplication and enhances the efficiency of managing and sharing geographical information. Using land use classification as an example, this study constructs a unified expression of three different land use classification systems based on the multi-classification model. An experiment managing land use data for a specific city was conducted using this model in PostgreSQL. The results indicate that the proposed method not only reduces data redundancy but also improves the query efficiency by over 10% on average compared to the mainstream relational database management mode. This confirms the effectiveness and practical value of the proposed method.

Domain effects on interpretations of general conditionals: The case of mathematics

Mathematics is often thought to have a unique association with certainty. The present study investigated a possible consequence of this association, namely that general conditionals are interpreted more deterministically in math than in other domains. To test this hypothesis, in two studies (Ns = 146 and 117), adults were presented general conditionals involving fictional categories in math and science and were asked to judge whether the conditionals were compatible with various frequencies of exceptions to them. Participants indicated that even rare exceptions (e.g., 1 exception per 99 confirming cases) would falsify a conditional (Studies 1 and 2), that a conditional could not be true and rare exceptions to it at the same time exist (Study 1), and that the truth of a conditional precluded the existence of even rare exceptions (Study 2), more when the conditionals involved math than science. The findings are consistent with the hypothesis that mathematical context is particularly likely to elicit deterministic interpretations of general conditionals. Implications of the findings for theories of conditional reasoning, and for individual differences in conditional reasoning, are discussed.

Progress in adaptive governance research and hotspot analysis: a global scientometric visualization analysis

Adaptive governance has emerged as a prominent theoretical and methodological approach in environmental governance, recognized for its capacity to address evolving conditions and future uncertainties. Despite the extensive literature on adaptive governance since its inception in 2003, a comprehensive review of the literature spanning two decades remains to be conducted. This study addresses that gap by selecting 3274 articles from the Web of Science Core Collection and performing a global scientometric visualization analysis. Our analysis identifies the most productive institutions, authors, journals, publication trends, and research frontiers in adaptive governance research. The findings reveal that there has been a significant acceleration in global research on adaptive governance over the past two decades. Furthermore, the majority of contributions to the field of adaptive governance research have been made by scholars based in the United States, Australia, England, Canada, and the Netherlands. Additionally, existing studies in adaptive governance field focus mainly on subject categories of environmental studies, environmental sciences, and ecology. Finally, the concept of adaptive governance, environmental governance, social-ecological systems, climate change adaptation and social learning were identified as hot topics and emerging trends. This study provides researchers and practitioners with an extensive understanding of the salient research themes, trends, and patterns in global adaptive governance research in an intuitive manner.

Power of economics without power in economics?

Power relations dominate most social and economic processes. Despite its significance, however, the concept of structural power relations is often neglected in standard economics. Standard economics often confines itself to dissecting an idealised, abstract world, wherein power dynamics are abstracted from and seen as somewhat outside the economic realm. But, can economics be powerful in understanding, explaining and, ideally, tackling the multiple crises of our time without embedding the concept of power in its analysis? We suggest that the lack of consideration or insufficient engagement with power-related aspects in mostly standard approaches has far-reaching implications, as policies that neglect underlying power relations are not fit to address the crisis. This collection reopens the discussion of power in economics. Building on the talks and discussions at the 2023 EAEPE Pre-Conference that was held in Leeds, UK, this collection provides scholars an outlet to shed light on power structures within their field of research to highlight the complexity and interrelation of power and economics. We also conduct a literature analysis to identify different forms and categories of power used in the mainstream and heterodox economics literature with a particular focus on the different definitions and interpretations of the concept. We get our sample from the Web of Science (WoS) category ‘Economics’ in the WoS SSCI database, from 2010 to 2024. This approach provides a roadmap to better understand the different interpretations, definitions and conceptualisations of power within current literature.
