Institutional Gaslighting: How Institutions Distort our Reality

Prince Charles' allegations of institutional gaslighting against Buckingham Palace in 2022 sparked an extensive discussion around a phenomenon that, until this event, was considered predominantly psychological in academia. The authors of this article, relying mostly on socio-cultural and institutional approaches, also abandon the strictly psychological interpretation of gaslighting as a form of violence in favor of an interdisciplinary approach. This made it possible to identify the foundations and features of institutional gaslighting, studied by scientists in economics and management, healthcare, science and education, politics, etc. The article also reveals the tools for implementing institutional gaslighting in various spheres of social life. As a result, the authors conclude that the key feature of institutional gaslighting is the ability of the institutions themselves to change the mental environment and influence the perception of reality. This was actually ruled out, for example, by D. North, who denied institutions independent existence. In addition, the authors consider gaslighting not just as an institutional betrayal, but as a dysfunction of any institution, one of the most important functions of which is to limit and control violence in society.

The concept of duty as an element of the legal status of a person

One of the methods of legal regulation of social relations is the establishment by the state of certain duties for its citizens. It is the obligation as an instrument of legal regulation that allows to create a balance between the interests of the individual, society and the state. That is why in Art. 23 of the Constitution of Ukraine states: "Every person has the right to the free development of his personality, if the rights and freedoms of other people are not violated, and he has obligations to the society in which the free and comprehensive development of his personality is ensured.” That is, a person, being in society, constantly interacts with other people. Accordingly, it cannot fail to have obligations towards society, citizens and the state. Therefore, duties are undoubtedly as important elements of legal status as rights and freedoms.
 The relevance of the study of legal status in general and duty as its structural element, in particular, is determined by their importance for the existence of a person in society. Therefore, in a philosophical dimension, the legal status secures the achieved level of personal freedom, acts as an important means of effectively meeting the needs and interests of each person, creating and using conditions for its comprehensive development. In addition, the significance of the phenomenon of legal status is reflected in its ability to increase the level of legal certainty, in particular, thanks to legal status, we can understand who a particular subject of law is in particular social relations; in which social relations and to what extent this subject can participate; in what way, on what grounds, conditions, a certain legal subject participates in social relations and how the corresponding subject will leave these relations or exactly how these relations should be terminated.
 Duty as an element of the legal status of a person, in turn, is one of the central elements in jurisprudence. Moreover, the level of legal awareness and legal culture in society depends on the proper functioning of the system of duties. In addition, according to the philosophical encyclopedic dictionary, duty is one of the main categories of ethics and moral consciousness, a moral obligation of an individual, a group of persons, a class, a nation, etc., which appears to them as a concrete practical task. That is, duty is a multifaceted category that is of exceptional importance in various spheres of social life, which causes special interest in its research. In addition, a separate prerequisite for the study of the duty category is the embodiment of the will and interests of the entire society in it, since the duty reflects the variant of behavior that is the most acceptable and socially useful.
 However, in the course of studies of the legal status of citizens, attention is mostly focused on the category of rights and freedoms, which, of course, form its basis, but they cannot be properly implemented without its other components, namely duties. Moreover, non-fulfillment of the duties specifically assigned to citizens entails a number of negative consequences both for society as a whole and for the state, in particular, the above­mentioned balance of interests is violated and the basis for potential social conflicts is created. Thus, both human rights and freedoms and human responsibilities are integral elements of legal status, however, in this article, attention will be focused on the study of the category of responsibility through the lens of legal status.

Social construction of the health of modern Russianyouth: the main vectors of domestic discourse

  The article presents a systematic analysis of trends and trends in the field of research of health problems in the youth environment, which relate to the attitude to health in general, the field of preserving and strengthening health.The author identifies significant risk factors that significantly affect both the health level of the younger generation and the life expectancy of its representatives, shows the ambivalence and inconsistency of data on the attitude of young people to their health obtained by various researchers. Based on the analysis of various sociological studies, including the author’s study conducted in July 2023, the results of the discussions conducted by domestic scientists addressing the health-saving problems of the younger generation of Russia are summarized.The first group includes macro-social problems related to the general state regulation of public health. Among them are the lack of health care of the population among the state priorities; inadequate social policy of the Russian Federation in the field of healthcare; the activities of institutions included in the management of the health sector, including its regulatory regulation. The second group of problems is related to the conceptualization of the concept of “health” and “healthy lifestyle”, the interpretation of which is usually ambiguous. It is obvious that the normative definition of a “healthy lifestyle” has medical, physiological, psychological and social structural components, which include various external factors — the influence of family and social environment, fashion on social habits, as well as the nature of media exposure.The data obtained by the author indicate that the greatest influence on the formation of young people’s ideas about health problems and practices for its maintenance is exerted by their own experience, social networks, family and the opinion of friends. They also confirm the prevailing trend: although the overwhelming majority of respondents (85%) are sure that people need to lead a healthy lifestyle, one in four believes that their lifestyle is unhealthy rather than healthy, and 5% of them do not consider their lifestyle healthy at all.The author refers to a special group of problems the impact on the health of the digital media environment, into which the younger generation is actively integrated today, first of all, about the so-called “new media”, which include: internet portals of online media, blogosphere, social networks, virtual communities, virtual games and other Web resources. By broadcasting ideas, behavioral models, new media in modern society become “legislators” in various spheres of social life. To a certain extent, they participate in the construction of an individual’s behavior in relation to health, which is both constructive and destructive in nature.

ЕЛЕКТРОННА ОСВІТА: СОЦІАЛЬНО-ЕКОНОМІЧНИЙ КОНТЕКСТ

This research can be treated as a kind of pilot, due to the relatively small population of respondents. However, according to the definition of the selection of typical units, such a small population of respondents is sufficient to draw conclusions from the research presented in this text. The purpose of the article is analysis of the main problems and positive aspects of the introduction of electronic educational tools. The methodological basis of the research was the logical methods of information processing, statistical analysis, comparison. The main hypothesis of the study. Teaching and learning with the use of modern telecommunications and information technologies is already a permanent component of the reality of education in and around the world most countries Teaching via the Internet, which is one of the forms of distance education, breaks certain stereotypes regarding the so-called knowledge transfer process.  Presenting main material. Innovation is the main driver of economic and social progress. Its absence results in stagnation both in the economy and in various spheres of social life. Economists emphasize the importance of large-scale investments in innovative programs, including education, which will not only help revive the economy in the near term, but also in the long term.. Originality and practical significance of the research. The selected research results presented here were related, as already indicated, to the declarations of current and future employees of the Schools. Undoubtedly, the crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has once again revealed the need for innovation and innovation in education and other areas of social life. Meeting this need requires well-thought-out changes in teacher education and professional development. In preparing teachers for work, it is necessary to move away from the narrowly understood didactic effectiveness in favor of, among others, developing teachers' attitudes in the field of introducing changes in education and their innovative behavior. Conclusions. Conclusions are presented in the form of answers to research problems: Respondents know many remote learning applications and programs, the most popular of which is Teams; The biggest disadvantage of e-education is the lack of direct contact with the teacher and other pupils/students, although these data are not clearly significant; The greatest advantage of e-education is its low organizational, time and financial costs; Respondents have the possibility of using various methods in e-education and are in favor of using activating methods. Unfortunately, they have little knowledge of the existence of a variety of applications.

Development of legislation in the field of ensuring the rights of indigenous peoples of Ukraine

The article is devoted to the study of legislation regulating social relations with the participation of indigenous peoples of Ukraine, its genesis and current state of development. In chronological order, the article examines normative acts adopted since 1990, which determine the status and rights of persons belonging to the indigenous peoples of Ukraine. It is claimed that as of the beginning of 2023, in Ukraine there has been formed a full-fledged system of normative legal acts and other written sources of law of Ukraine, which regulate social relations with the participation of indigenous peoples of Ukraine in collective and individual dimensions. To designate this system, it is proposed to use the term “legislation in the field of ensuring the rights of indigenous peoples of Ukraine”.
 It has been found out that, according to branch affiliation, legislation in the field of ensuring the rights of indigenous peoples of Ukraine mostly covers acts of administrative legislation. At the same time, it includes acts related to constitutional, civil, criminal legislation and other branches of law. Currently, the legislation in the field of ensuring the rights of indigenous peoples of Ukraine includes about fifteen acts, the "heart" of which is the Law of Ukraine "On Indigenous Peoples of Ukraine". Despite the fact that the foundations of the legislative provision of the rights of indigenous peoples of Ukraine were laid only in the Constitution of Ukraine, clear political and legal boundaries of future legislation were outlined in advance in the founding documents of Ukrainian statehood. The evolution of legislation in the field of ensuring the rights of indigenous peoples of Ukraine throughout the entire period under study was uneven and inconsistent. The author suggests dividing the history of legislation in the field of ensuring the rights of indigenous peoples of Ukraine into five periods.
 Based on the results of the analysis, it is established that the legislation on the indigenous peoples of Ukraine defines many special rights of persons belonging to the indigenous peoples of Ukraine in various spheres of social life. Modern trends in the development of legislation in the sphere of ensuring the rights of the indigenous peoples of Ukraine are also determined and promising directions of its development are outlined.

The socio-philosophical theory by Jacques Lacan as a metacriticism of the world outlook concept

Social philosophy is a rather young discipline considering philosophy, its methodology and problems often address the extremely general features of social life, the development of society and its structuring models, but individualistic approaches that have noticeably developed in the XIX-XX centuries significantly expanded the range of socio-philosophical categories' application. One of the most outstanding between such methodological approaches is associated with the psychoanalytic tradition and the name of Jacques Lacan. He was able to compile various spheres of social life - from linguistics and mythology to sociology, ethics and maths - considering his theory of the subject and its existence in the vital conditions of social life, which is also the subject of this article. Qualitative analysis of primary empirical data, including the translated seminars of Jacques Lacan, processing of secondary empirical data by foreign and domestic authors, analysis of various interdisciplinary points of view on the topic regarded were used as research methods. This article examines the main concepts and original insights of Lacan's analytical discourse within the framework of the issue under study and also reveals the possibility of conceptual applicability of his theory to worldview issues in the context of psychic and social life. In the course of research, the author comes to the conclusion that the varied, somewhat chaotic view by Jacques Lacan actually allows to conduct a structured, pointwise and thorough criticism on the foundations of socio-ethical worldview peculiarities, and thus can appear to be interesting for philosophers, psychologists, sociologists , teachers, historians, culturologists.

Institutional Changes in the Russian Empire During the Reign of Alexander II and Their Impact on Economic Processes

The object of this study is the “Great Reforms”, which led to institutional changes in Russia during the reign of Alexander II. A problematic question is posed: how did replacing the obsolete institutions of the Russian Empire with new ones under Alexander II affect the economy? Because of the persisting dichotomy with regard to the results of Alexander II’s reforms, a hypothesis is put forward: in addition to the impact of the new institutions introduced during the period of the “Great Reforms”, the efforts of the transformations were not aimed at the complete elimination of outdated institutions. To test the hypothesis, the main objective of the study is formulated: to reflect the institutional changes in Russia during the reign of Alexander II and their impact on the economy. The theoretical framework of the study includes a number of concepts of domestic and foreign scholars: Douglas North’s concept of institutions, which is exemplified by his works “Institutions, Institutional Change and Economic Functioning” [1], “Institutions, Institutional Change and Economic Performance” [2] and “Institutions and Economic Growth: Historical Introduction” [2]; Sergey Yu. Glazyev’s theory of long-term technical and economic development, reflected in the article “Modern Theory of Long Waves in Economic Development” [3] and the book “Russia in the New Technological and World Economic Patterns” [4]. This selection is due to the fact that the provisions of institutionalism and the concept of technological modes give the most complete answer to the problem question of the research. The work used the following set of methods: general scientific methods, such as logical analysis, synthesis, comparison, systematization of the available scientific literature on the topic of research; specific scientific theoretical methods: literature analysis on the selected historical period (the reforms of Alexander II), collection of statistical data (primarily economic indicators), analysis of the transformations in various spheres of social life and their results conducted in the specified historical period. The result of the study was the reflection of institutional changes in the economy of the Russian Empire and the country’s transition to a “new technological mode”.

Legal aspects of gender equality and their legislative consolidation

Presently, not only the equality of rights and freedoms is vital, but also the legal consolidation of equality between men and women in the ability to fully use all those rights and freedoms in various spheres of social life, which are guaranteed and ensured by the state. The purpose of this study was to investigate the terms “gender” and “gender equality” in the context of international regulatory documents and Ukrainian legislation on ensuring equal rights and opportunities for women and men as an integral part of the general rights of a person and a citizen. Among the key research methods were dialectical, logical-legal, and hermeneutic, which helped analyse the terms “gender” and “gender equality” and determine the regulatory framework of documents on ensuring and guaranteeing gender equality of both sexes. Using the comparative method, the compliance of Ukrainian legislation with international standards of gender policy was compared and analysed. This paper presents the results of the characterization and interpretation of the norms of legal documents and legislation regarding their compliance with the principles of gender equality. The essence of terms “gender” and “gender equality” was covered. The main areas of ensuring the equality of men and women, which are guaranteed by Ukrainian and international legislation, were outlined. The need to include in all state programs some measures that ensure gender equality and meet the Sustainable Development Goals was substantiated. It was proved that both at the state and regional levels, it is expedient to conduct various trainings that cover gender aspects and raise awareness among employees to develop a professional gender-sensitive culture of the working environment. Emphasis was placed on the importance of measures to prevent violations of human and citizen rights and freedoms, as well as to ensure gender equality between men and women under martial law. The importance of mandatory prosecution and punishment of the Russian military, guilty of violence against Ukrainian women and men, was emphasized. The results of the study can be used both by scientists who investigate issues of gender equality and discrimination based on gender, and by representatives of state bodies whose sphere of competence includes the implementation of gender equality policy, as well as by students and teachers of law schools, everyone who is interested in issues of gender and equality.

Diabetic Retinopathy Detection: A Blockchain and African Vulture Optimization Algorithm-Based Deep Learning Framework

Blockchain technology has gained immense momentum in the present era of information and digitalization and is likely to gain extreme popularity among the next generation, with diversified applications that spread far beyond cryptocurrencies and bitcoin. The application of blockchain technology is prominently observed in various spheres of social life, such as government administration, industries, healthcare, finance, and various other domains. In healthcare, the role of blockchain technology can be visualized in data-sharing, allowing users to choose specific data and control data access based on user type, which are extremely important for the maintenance of Electronic Health Records (EHRs). Machine learning and blockchain are two distinct technical fields: machine learning deals with data analysis and prediction, whereas blockchain emphasizes maintaining data security. The amalgamation of these two concepts can achieve prediction results from authentic datasets without compromising integrity. Such predictions have the additional advantage of enhanced trust in comparison to the application of machine learning algorithms alone. In this paper, we focused on data pertinent to diabetic retinopathy disease and its prediction. Diabetic retinopathy is a chronic disease caused by diabetes and leads to complete blindness. The disease requires early diagnosis to reduce the chances of vision loss. The dataset used is a publicly available dataset collected from the IEEE data port. The data were pre-processed using the median filtering technique and lesion segmentation was performed on the image data. These data were further subjected to the Taylor African Vulture Optimization (AVO) algorithm for hyper-parameter tuning, and then the most significant features were fed into the SqueezeNet classifier, which predicted the occurrence of diabetic retinopathy (DR) disease. The final output was saved in the blockchain architecture, which was accessed by the EHR manager, ensuring authorized access to the prediction results and related patient information. The results of the classifier were compared with those of earlier research, which demonstrated that the proposed model is superior to other models when measured by the following metrics: accuracy (94.2%), sensitivity (94.8%), and specificity (93.4%).

Council of Europe: main characteristics and directions of activity in the budget sphere

The global acceleration and deepening of integration processes present modern states with the need to develop an optimal model of international legal interaction, which will make it possible to most effectively introduce foreign experience into the national legal system. Ukraine is no exception - the prospect of its integration into the European Union necessitates changes in various spheres of social life - political, economic, cultural, etc. However, it should be recognized: the central element of the mechanism of such rapprochement is law, and legal integration is a key form of European integration1. That is why an essential element of the further development of the legal system of Ukraine is the achievement of a certain level of consistency of the legislation of our country and the practice of its implementation with EU law. The Council of Europe, together with the states, continues to cooperate to ensure the effective implementation of the existing legal framework and strengthen the capacity of national institutions to harmonize national legislation and practice with European standards in order to promote human rights, strengthen the rule of law and ensure democratic principles of governance in the budgetary sphere. The action plan will focus on the effective implementation of the existing legislative framework, part of which was prepared within the framework of the previous ones. Such support will continue to be aimed at strengthening the capacity of relevant national institutions to function effectively. These capabilities include the ability to address gender issues and facilitate constructive dialogue between the government and civil society. The Council of Europe intends to gradually expand its coverage to the entire country, including the conflict-affected territories controlled by the authorities. Special emphasis will be placed on deepening coordination and interaction between national partners representing all branches of government, as well as between specialist groups and NGOs.

An interdisciplinary approach to the study of the concept of value

We have studied the essence of the concept of value from the viewpoints of various disciplines and clarified its conceptual content. The essence of this concept is explained based on the principle of interdisciplinarity. In particular, this concept is defined and described within the framework of anthropology, philosophy, sociology, psychology, linguistics, and is characterized according to the fields of these sciences, and its conceptual content is consequently determined. The conceptual content of this notion is studied as a basic category that is an integral part of a person and his life, regardless of the field or object of science. We can note that value is an object of investigation of a wide varieties of disciplines on account of its importance in the life of a person. We claim that its interdisciplinary character can be substantiated by the following facts that values can be the basis for the formation of theories within various spheres of social life and they regulate social relations in the society as well as evaluate objects, phenomena, activities of the people of the society accordingly. It is reflected in language as a means of representing axiological information on people, their actions, objects, phenomena and etc.

FEATURES OF THE FUNCTIONING OF THE PUBLIC (STATE) ADMINISTRATION SYSTEM UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF MARITAL STATE

Against the background of existential challenges to its existence as a state, Ukraine under martial law continues to ensure national security, civil and social protection of the population, functioning of education, economy, industry, transport and infrastructure, to perform emergency rescue, construction, repair and restoration work, to overcome various crises phenomena More than a year has already passed since Ukrainian society and the system of public (state) administration have been operating under martial law. In the extremely difficult conditions of martial law, Ukraine is forced not only to defend its independence and territorial integrity, but also to support the economy, social sphere, infrastructure restoration, emergency rescue and construction works, overcome many other crisis phenomena in various spheres of social life and public (state) management. The need to solve, under such extreme conditions, a complex of urgent problems in various spheres of public (state) administration and public life is inevitably connected with increasing the requirements for the level of professional competence of managers and other personnel not only of military administration bodies, but also of state authorities, local selfgovernment bodies, state and communal enterprises, institutions and organizations on sectoral and inter-sectoral public (state) management under martial law. The article is devoted to the analysis of the peculiarities of the functioning of the system of public (state) administration in the conditions of martial law. The works of well-known specialists in public administration, strategic planning, geopolitics, and national security were analyzed. The legislative basis for the introduction of martial law was considered, as well as the peculiarities of the construction and functioning of the system of public (state) administration in wartime. The construction of the system of public (state) administration in wartime is analyzed. The scheme of the organization of the system of public (state) management in the martial law regime, and its variant, as well as the system of leadership of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other military formations of the state at the strategic level, is given.

РЕПРЕЗЕНТАЦІЯ ЦЕРКОВНОСЛОВ'ЯНІЗМІВ У ПОВСЯКДЕННІЙ МОВІ ВІРУЮЧИХ УКРАЇНСЬКОГО ПРАВОСЛАВ'Я

Based on the socio-historical features clarification of the Church Slavonic language development in Ukraine, the article reveals the Church Slavonic lexicon semantic potential in the Ukrainian Orthodox believers' everyday language using the semantic analysis example of individual lexical units. The significant importance of the Church Slavonic language as the Orthodox tradition foundation is determined. It is established that believers' everyday language in the form of an Orthodox sociolect appears as a linguistic microsystem characterized by certain parameters and possibilities of functioning. At the Ukrainian Orthodox believers' everyday communication level, archaic vocabulary becomes actual, new connotations appear, and the deatheization of a certain word group continues. The statement that by the beginning of the 90s of the 20th century the Ukrainian literary language development and the Church Slavonic liturgical language rehabilitation were not priority areas of state policy is substantiated. Having a confessional character, the Church Slavonic language was detached from live use in various spheres of social life and underwent numerous changes, codification, and normalization. This led to the traditional Ukrainian version displacement of the Church Slavonic language from use, which was reflected in its use in the church sphere. The influence of the living Ukrainian language tradition was manifested in the reproduction of the Church Slavonic language in the confessional environment. Russification of the Orthodox Church in the 19th century was contrasted with the oral liturgical tradition, which enabled priests and deacons to interpret Church Slavonicisms in the Ukrainian language during church services. Unlike the vernacular and book versions of the Ukrainian language, the Church Slavonic language was never used in live communication. It was used during prayers or religious services, and at the state level – as a literary language in diplomatic and legal correspondence. An exception is the borrowing of individual lexemes and syntactic constructions used in the modern Ukrainian language for stylistic purposes.

ГЕНДЕРНА ОРІЄНТАЦІЯ ПУБЛІЧНОГО ВРЯДУВАННЯ В УКРАЇНІ В ПІСЛЯВОЄННІЙ ВІДБУДОВІ

Background. The modern philosophy of social life, where equal rights and opportunities are guaranteed to all, is a trend of world development. Gender approaches are implemented in all areas of society. This is evidenced, in particular, by the Sustainable Development Goals (Goal 5), UN Security Council Resolution 1325 "Women. Peace. Security", the Gender Equality Strategy of the Council of Europe for 2018–2023, the European Charter for the Equality of Women and Men in the Life of Local Communities, the Biarritz Partnership etc. The implementation of gender approaches in various spheres of social life allows us to see existing problems for various social groups and individuals, to offer alternative ways of solving them, which allow us to meet the needs of specific women and specific men. The very understanding of "governance" is based on new views on the work of civil power, which reflect its turning towards citizens, democratization, and are especially important in the conditions of decentralization. The modern understanding of this term, as I. Degtyareva notes, was formed and began to be actively used in the 90s years of the 20th century to denote a modern way of managing a democratic state, when all interested parties are involved in decision-making, which significantly expands the boundaries of traditional management of government bodies. Therefore, we can talk about the transition to gender-oriented governance in modern democratic countries. The purpose of this article is to analyze the gender orientation of modern public administration of Ukraine in the conditions of post-war reconstruction. Object of study. Democratic governance in the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine. Methods. To obtain scientific results, the method of comparative analysis was used to identify similarities/differences in Ukraine's development trends, readiness for joining the EU. A comparison of the study of the projects "Strengthening the role of women in politics and decision-making at the local level" of UNDP and "Gender aspects, development of agriculture and rural areas – Ukraine" of FAO gave grounds to conclude that the processes in the regions of Ukraine are similar to the global trend: the less authority and resources are in power, the more chances women have to come to power. The method of content analysis was also used as a quantitative-qualitative method of studying the speeches of the Head of the National Agency of Ukraine on Civil Service Issues, the Vice-Prime Minister of Ukraine on European and Euro-Atlantic Integration of Ukraine, and people's deputies. Results. In Ukraine, government officials, together with citizens, developed, wrote and implemented the State program for ensuring equal rights and opportunities for women and men, the Government approved the National Action Plan for the Implementation of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, the National Action Plan for the Implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 1325 "Women, peace, security". Departmental plans were developed and adopted for the implementation of this Plan. Amendments to normative legal acts that had discriminatory norms against women are planned and proposed for implementation. We can state that there is a real and rapid process of integration of gender approaches in all spheres of social life. The Government is also developing sectoral documents that will contribute to the development of gender-oriented public governance in the post-war period as well. At the same time, the problem remains the lack of experts on gender issues in public administration, as well as gender stereotypes that prevent effective change in society. Conclusions. Ukraine needs a systematic approach and consolidated actions of public authorities, civil society institutions, and business for a deeper understanding of gender approaches to the development of all spheres of our life. Post-war reconstruction will be a challenge for the implementation of a gender approach in all spheres of public life. At the same time, ensuring justice is the basic approach of public governance in European countries.

Science trends and Digital immortality: AI accelerates movement towards an unattainable goal

The development of AI, social networks, digital technologies, and in particular Big Data, has brought humanity closer to digital immortality. Despite the risks of psychological, social and technological adaptation to using the possibilities of digital immortality, it is confidently introduced into various spheres of social life. However, currently it is mainly about simulating immortality, since decision-making is still beyond the reach of this technology.

Role of Remittance in Gender Transformation- A Study of Women Labor Migration in Pokhara Metropolitan City

The power, authority, and empowerment attained with the aid of economic capitals not only aids in the transformation of gender roles, but social and cultural capital also facilitates various facets of life, including: the standard of education, the types of employment involvement, the level of awareness, the types of family living, and the modes of interaction. As a result, both benefits and drawbacks can be found in the daily lives of both migrants and non-migrants due to the growing trend of female labor migration. In a traditionally patriarchal nation like Nepal, the migration of women for labor raises moral concerns about their moral decency as they struggle to reintegrate into their families and communities. The gender shift in the slum community of Pokhara Metropolitan City, Nepal, is the main emphasis of this paper's examination of the various features of remittances and ways through which they are transferred. Particular focus is placed on the conversion of economic capital into social and cultural capital as well as the function of proxy managers in managing household duties and remittances. Data from both secondary literature and original sources are used to support the arguments made here. The data came from 199 households of women migrants' families who had moved away at least three years prior to the survey, which was conducted between March and July 2022. The data collecting and analysis techniques used were both quantitative and qualitative. The numerous facets of remittances are examined in this paper. The findings explain the diverse forms of capital accumulation and how women gain more influence in various spheres of social life. The study also offers a more nuanced view of how women are becoming more involved in household decision-making as a result of economic empowerment and how to address forthcoming socio-cultural barriers that prevent their engagement in public sphere.

Sărăcia și alți factori de risc ce favorizează comportamentul violent în viața domestică

Poverty, when manifested against the background of additional potentiating factors, such as a low level of education, the presence of addictions such as alcoholism, smoking, drug use, etc., is one of the most often incriminated factors responsible for the emergence and proliferation domestic violence. The inability to satisfy certain material needs determines the frustration of the individual, frustration that generates, in turn, some violent, conflictual impulses, which disturb the balance of family life. Violent behavior generates extremely serious social problems, affecting all age groups, social status and various spheres of social life. The COVID-19 pandemic, which created the conditions for an intensification of family life by organizing work from home or increasing unemployment, has led to an increase in the phenomenon of domestic violence and especially violence against women.

Intellectual property in Ukraine during martial law

The article is devoted to research of intellectual property in Ukraine under martial law. The authors of the article focus on the fact that intellectual property is one of the areas that helps the country develop economically in such an extremely difficult time, and pass the challenges with dignity, step by step.
 The authors establish that appropriate management of the intellectual property portfolio under martial law is particularly relevant to avoid future problems with potential litigation. It is also substantiated that it is important to keep data for the protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights in Ukraine in the post-war economy.
 The article highlights that Ukrpatent, which performs the functions of the National Intellectual Property Body in the field of intellectual property, keeps working in difficult conditions, providing the necessary functions and continuous operation of the state system for intellectual property legal protection. Based on the analysis of data from Ukrpatent, it is noted that the number of registered industrial property rights for the 1st half of 2022 compared to the 1st half of 2021 is 75.2%.
 The authors analysed the latest changes in the legislation on intellectual property under martial law, which give grounds to believe that intellectual property continues to develop. It is also noted that there is a strengthening and implementation of European integration processes in the area of intellectual property. Ukraine actively continues to develop the relevant direction.
 The authors conclude that despite the extremely difficult conditions in various spheres of social life under martial law, laborious legislative activity in the field of intellectual property continues. Providing further functioning of the mechanisms of intellectual property rights protection and their progressive improvement under martial law with the support of friendly countries and the international community is aimed at strengthening and implementing European integration processes in Ukraine.

Fundamental principles of the functioning of the rule of law in Ukraine as a criterion for mutually beneficial cooperation with EU countries: philosophical and legal foundations

It is noted that the world community is observing numerous international crimes in Ukraine, which are committed in the course of an undeclared full-scale war against our country, which has been waged by the Russian Federation since February 24 under the invented slogans of the so-called “special operation”. So, right now, Ukraine needs radical changes in various spheres of social life, the implementation of which, in particular, is intended to be facilitated by constitutional reforms.
