Abstract:

La passation des contrats des collectivités publiques françaises a toujours été soumise à des règles spécifiques. Produit des traditions politiques et juridiques françaises, le droit des contrats publics déroge au droit commun. L’exemple des marchés publics est topique. Le droit français des marchés publics est actuellement en pleine mutation, particulièrement sous l’influence du droit européen et le souci des pouvoirs publics de mieux contrôler le bon emploi des deniers publics. C’est pourquoi deux grandes réformes ont été engagées ces dernières années. L’une a consisté à reformuler les droits des opérateurs en essayant de supprimer toute forme de discrimination dans le droit de la commande publique. L’autre a cherché à sanctionner de manière plus efficace les dévoiements constatés. La législation pénale et les contrôles administratifs ont été renforcés.

Abstract:

Une reconnaissance constitutionnelle des collaborateurs permettrait de consacrer le vertueux mouvement juridique qui tente de résoudre la situation intenable dans laquelle les plonge le paradoxe qui les enferme : politiquement, leur existence est incontestable et incontestée. Mais juridiquement leur existence est minorée, comme leurs fonctions. Reconnus par la Constitution, ils deviendraient visibles juridiquement et donc contrôlables notamment par le biais des contrôles des deniers publics que le pouvoir gouvernemental engage pour son organisation et son fonctionnement.

Abstract:

La DGFiP, avec la mise en œuvre du « PES marché », capitalise sur l’obligation de dématérialisation de la commande publique tout en améliorant le quotidien de ses comptables dans l’exécution des dépenses sur marchés. En s’appuyant à la fois sur l’obligation réglementaire et sur la volonté des associations représentatives des élus locaux, la DGFiP s’est positionnée comme concentrateur de flux, en facilitant à cette occasion l’ouverture des données publiques. La mise à disposition gratuite de données librement réutilisables, dans des formats ouverts, va permettre de concourir à la luttecontre la corruption, à la transparence sur la gestion des deniers publics, au pilotage des politiques d’achat et au développement économique des entreprises.

Abstract:

RésuméAu Canada, la médiation connaît un essor grandissant surtout depuis les années 1970. Des auteurs soutiennent que la médiation offre plusieurs avantages tels que la réduction des coûts émotifs et financiers d'une séparation. Cet intérêt croissant se révèle à la lecture de nombreux ouvrages sur le sujet et à la mise sur pied des programmes rattachés aux tribunaux. De plus, certaines législations réfèrent à la médiation, sans toutefois la réglementer directement. Cette attention portée par l'État à la médiation dissimule, peut-être, une préoccupation pécuniaire. Malgré ses apparences progressives, l'intervention de l'État dans ce secteur nous préoccupe. Vise-t-on essentiellement à économiser les deniers publics sans égard aux plus démunis? Et qu' en est-il du caractère «privé» du processus de médiation et des ententes qui en découlent? N'y a-t-il pas là le risque d'agir au détriment de la partie la plus faible? C'est pourquoi, en dépit des avantages apparents de la médiation, il est important d'en examiner la teneur sous un oeil critique.Il sera question du processus de médiation, du rôle et de la formation des médiatrices. Ensuite, les concepts de garde dans les systèmes de droit civil et de common law canadiens seront examinés. Nous procéderons à une analyse critique de la médiation, en mentionnant l'importance de prendre en compte le phénomène de la violence conjugale. La toile de fond consiste à souligner que, malgré les lois en droit de la famille conférant l'égalité formelle entre conjoints, l'égalité véritable n'est pas acquise dans notre société.

Abstract:

Against a contrasting backdrop of consensus on key issues on climate science, a heterogeneous group dubbed climate «skeptics», «contrarians», «deniers» have significantly shaped contemporary discussions of climate science, politics and policy in the public sphere. This essay focuses on the USA context, and explores some of the intertwined social, political and economic factors, as well as cultural and psychological characteristics that have together influenced public attitudes, intentions, beliefs, perspective and behaviors in regards to climate change science and governance over time. This article makes the case that the USA example can inform developments elsewhere; as such it is important to consider these contextual elements to more capably appraise «contrarian», «skeptic», «denier» reverberations through the current public discussions on climate change.

Abstract:

Abstract Background Outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy (OPAT) allows patients to receive prolonged antimicrobial therapy while reducing the length of hospitalization and healthcare costs. In the United States, most public and private insurance companies require prior authorization (PA) for OPAT. The impact of OPAT PA delays is not known. This study aimed to characterize discharge barriers and authorization delays associated with high-cost OPAT antibiotics. Methods IRB-approved study of adult patients discharged with high-cost OPAT antibiotics from January to December 2017. Antibiotics were included based on the frequency of OPAT use and average sales price (ASP) greater than $100 per day, including: daptomycin, ceftaroline, ertapenem, and the novel β-lactam β-lactam inhibitor combinations. Patients with an OPAT authorization delay >24 hours were compared with patients without an OPAT authorization delay. Primary endpoint: total direct hospital costs, starting from the start of treatment with the OPAT antibiotic, from the institutional perspective using Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project and Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services 2019 ASP Drug Pricing data. Secondary outcomes: discharge delay and 30-day readmission or mortality. Results Two-hundred patients included: 151 (76%) no OPAT delay vs. 49 (25%) OPAT delay. The use of antibiotics was similar between groups, except ertapenem was more common in the no OPAT delay group: 60 (43%) vs. 15 (25%), P = 0.022. Patients with no OPAT delay were more commonly discharged with home infusion and less commonly to a facility: 75 (53%) vs. 19 (32%), P = 0.007, and 52 (37%) vs. 37 (63%), P = 0.001, respectively. Discharge delays were more common in patients with OPAT delays: 21 (15%) vs. 31 (53%), P < 0.001. The median total direct hospital costs were higher in patients with OPAT delays: $7,770 (3,031–13,974) vs. $19,576 vs. (10,056–37,038), P < 0.001. Table 1 compares the total direct hospital costs of patients with and without an authorization delay. Conclusion OPAT with high-cost antibiotics requires significant care coordination. Authorization delays for these antibiotics are common and may contribute to a delay in discharge. OPAT transitions of care represent an important opportunity for Infectious Diseases providers to improve care and address access barriers. Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.

Abstract:

Reading and literacy are important not only for instrumental reasons such as knowing exit signs and recognizing initial consonants but also have tremendous human functioning implications in areas such as initiating and sustaining friendships, communicating care and affection, and enhancing work, leisure, and play. Many people with intellectual disability are denied opportunities to learn literacy, which in turn denies richness in life opportunities. This article describes one friendship in which reading and literacy play an important part. We describe some of our experiences learning to read and engaging in lifelong literacy and how literacy affects our friendship and our ability to express affection for others and brings us enjoyment.

Abstract:

Dog importation data from 2018–2020 were evaluated to ascertain whether the dog importation patterns in the United States changed during the COVID-19 pandemic, specifically with regard to denial of entry. Dog denial of entry reports from January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2020, stored within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Quarantine Activity Reporting System (QARS), were reviewed. Basic descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data. Reason for denial, country of origin, and month of importation were all examined to determine which countries of origin resulted in the largest number of denials, and whether there was a seasonal change in importations during the COVID-19 pandemic (2020), compared to previous years (2018 and 2019). During 2020, CDC denied entry to 458 dogs. This represents a 52% increase in dogs denied entry compared to the averages in 2018 and 2019. Dogs were primarily denied entry for falsified rabies vaccination certificates (56%). Three countries exported 74% of all dogs denied entry into the United States, suggesting that targeted interventions may be needed for certain countries. Increased attempts to import inadequately vaccinated dogs from countries with canine rabies in 2020 may have been due to the increased demand for domestic pets during the COVID-19 pandemic. Educational messaging should highlight the risk of rabies and the importance of making informed pet purchases from foreign entities to protect pet owners, their families, and the public.

Abstract:

The present study aimed to identify the distinct levels of risk perception and preventive behaviors during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak among people in Taiwan and to examine the roles of information sources in various levels of risk perception and preventive behavior. The online survey recruited 1984 participants through a Facebook advertisement. Their self-reported risk perception, adopted preventive behaviors and COVID-19-related information were collected. We analyzed individuals’ risk perception and adopted preventive behaviors by using latent profile analysis and conducted multinomial logistic regression of latent class membership on COVID-19-related information sources. Four latent classes were identified, including the risk neutrals with high preventive behaviors, the risk exaggerators with high preventive behaviors, the risk deniers with moderate preventive behaviors, and the risk deniers with low preventive behaviors. Compared with the risk neutrals, the risk exaggerators with high preventive behaviors were more likely to obtain COVID-19 information from multiple sources, whereas the risk deniers with moderate preventive behaviors and risk deniers with low preventive behaviors were less likely to obtain COVID-19 information compared with the risk neutrals. Governments and health professions should take the variety of risk perception and adopted preventive behaviors into consideration when disseminating information on COVID-19 to the general public.

Abstract:

The Court of Appeals of New York held, in Council of the City of New York u. Giuliani, slip op. 02634, 1999 WL 179257 (N.Y. Mar. 30, 1999), that New York City may not privatize a public city hospital without state statutory authorization. The court found invalid a sublease of a municipal hospital operated by a public benefit corporation to a private, for-profit entity. The court reasoned that the controlling statute prescribed the operation of a municipal hospital as a government function that must be fulfilled by the public benefit corporation as long as it exists, and nothing short of legislative action could put an end to the corporation's existence.In 1969, the New York State legislature enacted the Health and Hospitals Corporation Act (HHCA), establishing the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation (HHC) as an attempt to improve the New York City public health system. Thirty years later, on a renewed perception that the public health system was once again lacking, the city administration approved a sublease of Coney Island Hospital from HHC to PHS New York, Inc. (PHS), a private, for-profit entity.

Abstract:

In his Paradoxe sur le comédien, written around 1770 but not published until the nineteenth century, the French philosophe Denis Diderot argued that the great actors of his day suppressed their individuality onstage; rather than personally experiencing the emotions called for by the playwright, they denied their own private subjectivity in order to create a more seamless public illusion. By an act of self-effacement, therefore, they paradoxically rendered themselves capable of impersonating anyone. In his essay, Diderot repeatedly turned to the example of his contemporary, the Comédie-Française actress Mlle Clairon, to illustrate this phenomenon. Off the stage, the philosopher claimed, Clairon was physically unimposing, and displays of her true feelings in the privacy of her home seemed artificial and unconvincing. In the theatre, however, she swelled in size and emotional presence until she dominated an audience and deepened the sentiments invoked by the playwright. According to Diderot, in the moment of public performance she was double: both the “little Clairon” and the “great Agrippina”, the socially inconsequential actress and a mythic heroine of the French stage.

Abstract:

The verses of the holy Qur’an were revealed in a sequence and this sequence end with the completion of the whole process of revelation when the Holy Scripture was presented to the holy prophet as a sole and single whole book of guidance. Right from the outset it has been under close scrutiny of both the Muslims and non-believers. While the non-believers have always been skeptical about the truthfulness of the divine message. The Muslim on the other hand served a great cause of passing on to the people what Allah (SWT) termed as a source of guidance and treasure of knowledge. The word revelation itself stands for a message from God which He conveyed to the prophet in different ways. Sometimes the message comes through the angel Gabriel and at other times through hints and clue. This sort of communication between God and man is believed to have been in tradition in other religions as well and the concept of avacke in Greek methodology is a glaring example of this belief. However, with the development of science, a group of western thinkers denied the genuineness of revelation, but surprisingly most of these skeptics were either etheists or Pagans who had least to do with religion and the sole purpose was to mislead or misguide the public about the divine message. They also raised doubts about the authorship of the Holy Qur’an and some even designated the holy prophet (SAW) as the writer. In this article, the doubts of the skeptics or non-belivers, which depicted a prejudicial picture of the Qur’Én, have been criticaly analyzed.

The results suggest few Australian organisations practice ‘symmetric public relations,’ which means encouraging stakeholder participation in decisions, especially in corporate strategic planning. This may well represent lost strategic opportunities as it limits the scope of a firm's orientation to its external environment and denies firms the benefit of such an orientation.

Abstract:

This paper discusses the young Muslim public's response to non-Muslim leadership in Indonesia. The democratic system provides equal opportunities for everyone to be leaders in various levels of government. However, the debate over non-Muslim leaders remains common, especially in this contemporary era. How the young Muslim public tendency to respond to non-Muslims leadership becomes the point discussed in this paper. This study finds out that there were three young Muslim public tendencies regarding to non-Muslim leadership. First, the tendency of those groups expressively denies the leadership of non-Muslims. The explanation of the Islami texts authority, the Muslim social reality, and the history of national leadership form the basis of this group's thinking. Second, there were groups that accept on the basis of reason, i.e. the social context and political interests, namely anyone has the opportunity and opportunity to be a leader among the Muslim majority. Third, groups that tend to accept with certain conditions, such as having the ability, commitment to uphold the values of Islam, and non-discrimination.

Abstract:

AbstractIn recent years, several Swedish companies have been accused in the media, by NGOs, and via legal proceedings of engaging in criminal activities. Two of these companies, TeliaSonera and Lundin Petroleum have been the focus of substantial public attention. During the years following the revelations that TeliaSonera, a partly state owned telecommunications company, had committed bribery offences in Central Asia, the affair went from a public scandal in Sweden to a legal process in Sweden and abroad. Lundin Petroleum, a family owned oil company accused of participating in crimes against humanity in Sudan, has continuously denied the accusation by using a variety of denials and neutralizations. The current paper analyzes the strategies employed by these two businesses when defending themselves against allegations of criminal acts. Drawing on Stanley Cohen’s (2009) theoretical work on processes of denial and neutralization techniques, we have identified four main techniques used by the two companies to deflect allegations of criminal wrongdoing: literal denial; denial of knowledge; condemning the condemners; and appealing to a higher loyalty. In addition, we identify how the corporations emphasise their “Nordic values” by linking into a post-colonial discourse and justify their behaviour by relativising it. The article contributes to the discussion of neutralization strategies by pointing out the importance of the context in which a defence takes place.

Abstract:

The primary method for geo-localization is based on GPS which has issues of localization accuracy, power consumption, and unavailability. This paper proposes a novel approach to geo-localization in a GPS-denied environment for a mobile platform. Our approach has two principal components: public domain transport network data available in GIS databases or OpenStreetMap; and a trajectory of a mobile platform. This trajectory is estimated using visual odometry and 3D view geometry. The transport map information is abstracted as a graph data structure, where various types of roads are modelled as graph edges and typically intersections are modelled as graph nodes. A search for the trajectory in real time in the graph yields the geo-location of the mobile platform. Our approach uses a simple visual sensor and it has a low memory and computational footprint. In this paper, we demonstrate our method for trajectory estimation and provide examples of geolocalization using public-domain map data. With the rapid proliferation of visual sensors as part of automated driving technology and continuous growth in public domain map data, our approach has the potential to completely augment, or even supplant, GPS based navigation since it functions in all environments.

Abstract:

Resumen: La Sentencia de la Audiencia Nacional (Sala de lo Contencioso-Administrativo) de 11 de septiembre de 2017 deniega la adquisición de la nacionalidad española a un ciudadano de la República de Guinea por polígamo, al no cumplir con el requisito del “suficientemente grado de integración en la sociedad española” (art. 22.3 CC), dando la razón así a la DGRN. Se analiza la jurisprudencia existente tratando de definir este concepto jurídico indeterminado, aunque también se ha dotado de contenido al mismo mediante algunas normas. De dicho análisis, se concluye que aunque la poligamia resulte válida conforme a la Ley nacional del sujeto (art. 9.1 CC), constituye una realidad contraria a los principios fundamentales del Derecho matrimonial español. Así que la ley extranjera que permite que una persona afectada por impedimento de ligamen (art. 46.2º CC) pueda casarse con otra persona, atenta contra el orden público internacional español (art. 12.3 CC). Sin embargo, los tribunales consideran que deben analizarse las circunstancias de cada caso, para comprobar que efectivamente el sujeto extranjero ejerce la poligamia de forma efectiva, y si no es así, se le debe otorgar la nacionalidad española, en contra de la opinión de la DGRN, que deniega la nacionalidad española porque en la certificación extranjera de matrimonio el sujeto opta por la poligamia, sin tener en cuenta si la ha ejercido realmente. En cualquier caso, se estudian también los efectos jurídicos de los matrimonios poligámicos en España, cuando el sujeto polígamo adquiere la nacionalidad española mediante fraude o engaño.Palabras clave: Nacionalidad española, poligamia, grado suficiente de integración en la sociedad española, orden público internacional.Abstract: The Judgment of the Audiencia Nacional Court (Sala de lo Contencioso-administrativo) of September 11, 2017 denies the acquisition of the Spanish nacionality to a citizen of the Republic of Guinea legally married to several women in his country of origin, due to the lack of “sufficient degree of integration in the Spanish society” (Art. 22.3 CC), confirming the statement of the DGRN (administrative Spanish authorities). In the existing jurisprudence this indeterminate legal concept is defined, although some rules do regulate it as well. From this analysis, we conclude that although polygamy is valid according to the national law of the foreign individual (Art. 9.1 CC), it constitutes a reality against the fundamental principles of Spanish marital law. So the foreign law that allows a person affected by hindrance to marriage (Art. 46.2 º CC) can get married with another person, violates the Spanish public policy rule (Art. 12.3 CC). However, the courts consider that the circumstances of each case should be analyzed to verify that the foreign individual effectively exercises polygamy, and if not, he should access to the Spanish nationality, in opposition to the DGRN opinion, which denies the access to the Spanish nationality because the applicant chooses polygamy in the foreign marriage certificate, although he has not really exercised it. In any case, the legal effects of polygamous marriages in Spain are also studied, when the polygamous applicant acquires the Spanish nationality through fraud or deception.Keywords: Spanish nacionality, poligamy, sufficient level of integration in the Spanish society, public policy rule.

Abstract:

BackgroundAlthough the benefits of public knowledge of physical diseases are widely accepted, knowledge about mental disorders (mental health literacy) has been comparatively neglected.AimsTo introduce the concept of mental health literacy to a wider audience, to bring together diverse research relevant to the topic and to identify gaps in the area.MethodA narrative review within a conceptual framework.ResultsMany members of the public cannot recognise specific disorders or different types of psychological distress. They differ from mental health experts in their beliefs about the causes of mental disorders and the most effective treatments. Attitudes which hinder recognition and appropriate help-seeking are common. Much of the mental health information most readily available to the public is misleading. However, there is some evidence that mental health literacy can be improved.ConclusionsIf the public's mental health literacy is not improved, this may hinder public acceptance of evidence-based mental health care. Also, many people with common mental disorders may be denied effective self-help and may not receive appropriate support from others in the community.

Abstract:

Objectives The CDC has warned of increased risk for severe COVID-19 illness among those with certain preexisting conditions. Protective behaviors such as social distancing and mask-wearing have been shown effective at curbing infection rates. These practices are subject to individual perceptions of risk and responsibility. This study aimed to characterize the risk perceptions and protective behaviors of residents in a rural central Michigan region. Specifically, we examined whether individual risk status predicted protective behaviors and concern about the pandemic. Methods Participants were identified via medical records at participating clinics. The high-risk group was those with conditions that put them at increased risk of severe illness from COVID-19, and was compared to healthy controls. Data were collected via phone survey. Participants were asked about their protective behaviors and level of concern about the ongoing pandemic. Results A total of 150 patients participated in the survey; 73 were high-risk acknowledgers, 29 were high-risk deniers, and 48 were healthy controls. There was no significant difference between the groups on level of concern regarding the pandemic or protective behaviors ( P > .05). Compared to other comorbidities, obese people were significantly more likely to deny their risk ( P < .05). Conclusions In this study, high risk, whether acknowledged or denied, did not appear to significantly impact behaviors or concern. The high percentage of those at high risk who did not acknowledge this suggests many factors including a potential lack of patient education regarding their comorbidities, specifically, how their illness increases their risk of severe illness from COVID-19.

Abstract:

European Court of Human Rights ruled in 2016 that the European Convention on Human Rights includes a right to access information held by public authorities. While according to international documents the procedures for accessing information should be ‘rapid’, the courts have yet to rule on what ‘rapid’ means and when the procedures are so long that they violate rights of those asking for information. This article analyses the length of proceedings in access to information cases in Slovenia and Croatia. It shows that these two countries do not have a system of effective protection of rights because the authorities can easily delay disclosure of information for several years. It argues that lengthy procedures violate the right to access the information and the freedom of expression. It then presents solutions for improving access to information procedures in order for them to become ‘rapid’

Full text

Abstract:

Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring (1962) created a new genre termed “science nonfiction literature.” This genre blended environmental science and narrative while ushering in a new era of awareness and interest for both. With the contemporary climate crisis becoming more dire, this article returns to Carson’s work for insight into ways to engage deniers of climate change and methods to propel action. Further, it investigates and evaluates the writing within Silent Spring by considering its past in our present. Using the corporate reception of Carson’s book as reference, this article also examines ways climate change opponents create misunderstandings and inappropriately deceive and misdirect the public. Through this analysis, connections are made that connect literature, science, and public engagement, which can engender a broader, more comprehensive awareness of the importance of environmental literature as a medium for climate awareness progress.

Abstract:

Public charge, a term used by immigration officials for over 100 years, refers to a person who relies on public assistance at the government’s expense. Immigrants who are deemed at high risk of becoming a public charge can be denied green cards; those outside of the United States can be denied entry. Current public charge policy largely applies to cash benefits. The Department of Homeland Security has proposed a regulation that will allow officials to consider the take-up of both cash and non-cash benefits when making public charge determinations. Nearly 90 percent of children with immigrant parents are U.S.-born and therefore eligible for public benefits. Most of these children live in mixed-status households. We examine the potential child poverty impact of the proposed regulation. Our results show that depending on the chilling effect, more than 2 million citizen children could lose access to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program as a result of the proposed regulation.

Abstract:

The study examines the impact of determinants of democratic governance on political rights and public policy in the sub-Saharan African countries. The study follows the quantitative research tradition using a linear regression model. Together with one trend variable, seven independent variables representing determinants of governance, as well as one dependent variable (political rights/the voice of the people), have been applied into the equation. The computation yielded statistical results that could guide meaningful analysis about the theme under study. The study shows that the lack of democratic governance has negatively affected the status of political rights, and human rights as well as accountability. Thus, the voice of the people in matters that influence public policy has been constrained in the 32 sub-Saharan African countries.

Full text

Abstract:

This paper aims to study about the query of femaleness in Indonesian folktales from the feminism approach. It is taken into account due to women’s subordination that allegedly implies the negation of femaleness. In particular, the perpetual story of Malin Kundang represents that owing to her weakness, a woman is a subordinate creature. It happens when Malin Kundang denies the appearance of her mother after a series of successes he makes. Another popular story, Sangkuriang, even depicts that due to her beauty, a woman is an object of sex. It is seen when Sangkuriang proposes Dayang Sumbi to be his wife because of his inability of recognising her as his mother after some year banishment. The subordination eventually drives the two women to struggle against it in order to defend their dignity. The mother of Malin Kundang spells him to be a stone and Dayang Sumbi overtly refuses Sangkuriang’s proposal. Their struggles are of course valued of the morality for wider public, too. Despite this, the tales remain a query of women’s existence, particularly that of femaleness. The truth that a woman is biologically and socially the mother of man is denied in order to sustain men’s superiority. By biologically it means that a woman is the undenied creature for her gifted power of childbirthing. It then socially gives her more power to sustain the generations and the social relationships. Furthermore, it is pivotal to investigate the feminist critical ideas about the essence of femaleness in the Indonesian folktales.

Residents’ groups are becoming more organized and vocal in expressing their concerns regarding the negative effects of poorly operated liquor licensed premises. Using the “public interest” measures in the Liquor Licence Act, the residents have successfully had liquor licenses revoked and new license applications denied. This paper examines some of the types of problems suffered by residents and the efforts they have made to alleviate those problems. These efforts include proactive consultation with licensed-premises operators, lobbying of politicians, adversarial license hearings, and legislative amendments.

Abstract:

Dominant social sciences approaches to complexity suggest that awareness of complexity in late-modern society comes from various recent scientific insights. By examining today’s plant and human genomics sciences, I question this from both ends: first suggesting that typical public culture was already aware of particular salient forms of complexity, such as limits to predictive knowledge (which are often denied by scientific cultures themselves); second, showing how up-to-date genomics science expresses both complexity and its opposites, predictive determinism and reductionism, as coexistent representations of nature and scientific knowledge. I suggest we can understand this self-authored epistemic confusion in modern science by avoiding ‘the usual suspects’ – fading simpler discourses left over from previous scientific times; media oversimplifications; or the need to ‘simplify’ to essentials, for ignorant publics – and looking instead at the silent imaginations of extra-scientific reference groups reflected and projectively performed in scientific discourses-practices themselves. Thus contradictions of complex scientific understandings are systematically created by science’s own embodiment of epistemic commitments influenced by commercial cultures, and by imagined publics who are important new constructed objects of institutional scientific concerns – over authority and trust. New dimensions of complexity thus come alive through paying attention to neglected tacit dimensions of science–society interrelations.

Abstract:

Following legal recognition of marriages for same-sex couples, new topics have emerged in debates over LGBT rights. While numerous studies of public opinion about gay and transgender rights have been examined, some emergent issues remain underexamined. Two prominent issues are conversion therapy and denials of service based on religious beliefs in a variety of settings. These areas of LGBT rights are dynamic, with some states recently banning conversion therapy on minors, the Trump Administration’s guidance on denials of service by health professionals, and some states funding adoption and foster agencies that refuse to provide services to same-sex couples and LGBT adults. In this study, we assess factors associated with public attitudes on these issues. While we find patterns that are consistent with previous studies, we also find inconsistencies when examining the effects of age, race, partisanship, educational attainment, and interpersonal contact. We further find that being a parent moderates the effects of interpersonal contact. Sometimes the moderated contact effects are large and positive but other times contact effects are negative. The contact effect depends on the particular type of contact such as with LGB people, transgender people, or knowing parents who have a transgender child.

Abstract:

Incarcerated juveniles have the greatest need for education and potential for improvement, yet they are one of the most underserved populations in terms of public education. Juveniles in detention centers receive a lower quality education when compared to public education systems–courses exclusively based on worksheets, single-room style teaching methods, a shortage of textbooks, and underqualified teachers. They also struggle to earn and transfer credits. In addition, solitary confinement often denies access to education, adding further disadvantages. Currently, juveniles have a low reenrollment rate in the public education system after their release. This paper presents a solution for the future of juvenile education, using the national response to COVID-19 of moving education online as a blueprint, combined with social science research, to provide small amendments to promote an effective learning environment.

Abstract:

This paper examines the reasons why, despite the magnitude and significance of the Lac-Mégantic disaster, no formal public inquiry was called into the tragedy. In doing so it explores the substantive and political rationales for establishing public inquiries in circumstances like Lac-Mégantic, and the reasons why the various investigations that have been undertaken by the Transportation Safety Board and others into the disaster do not constitute an adequate substitute for a formal inquiry. The paper then employs a modified institutional-ideological analytical framework to examine the landscape, ideational, societal, and institutional factors that have worked against the calling of an inquiry. The paper concludes that the concept of a formal inquiry likely faced major opposition at the political and official levels within the Government of Canada, as well as major non-governmental actors in the transportation and fossil fuel sectors. Finally, the paper discusses the implications of the decision not to call an inquiry in the Lac-Mégantic case for the role of inquiries in similar circumstances in the future.

Full text

Abstract:

To establish peer-to-peer connections and achieve real-time web-based communication, the Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC) framework requires address information of the communicating peers. This means that users behind, say, Network Address Translation (NAT) or firewalls normally rely on the Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE) framework for the sake of negotiating information about the connection and media transferring. This typically involves Session Traversal Utilities for NAT (STUN)/Traversal using Relays around NAT (TURN) servers, which assist the peers with discovering each other’s private and public IP:port, and relay traffic if direct connection fails. Nevertheless, these IP:port pieces of data can be easily captured by anyone who controls the corresponding STUN/TURN server, and even more become readily available to the JavaScript application running on the webpage. While this is acceptable for a user that deliberately initiates a WebRTC connection, it becomes a worrisome privacy issue for those being unaware that such a connection is attempted. Furthermore, the application acquires more information about the local network architecture compared to what is exposed in usual HTTP interactions, where only the public IP is visible. Even though this problem is well-known in the related literature, no practical solution has been proposed so far. To this end, and for the sake of detecting and preventing in real time the execution of STUN/TURN clandestine, privacy-invading requests, we introduce two different kinds of solutions: (a) a browser extension, and (b) an HTTP gateway, implemented in C++ as well as in Golang. Both solutions detect any WebRTC API call before it happens and inform accordingly the end-user about the webpage’s intentions. We meticulously evaluate the proposed schemes in terms of performance and demonstrate that, even in the worst case, the latency introduced is tolerable.
