Abstract:

This position paper addresses three areas in which photographic images are used and abused: Journalism, Advertising, and Public Relations. These areas do not use images for aesthetic purposes only; for these businesses, the images are more than mental impressions. In these three industries, the messages they deliver through the images have little to do with the objective reality. All three use images to deliver an opinion in the name of journalism, distorted needs, benefits, and solutions in advertising, and put spins on facts to present favorable images of their clients in Public Relations.

Abstract:

The Police play a key role in maintaining law and order and safeguarding the security of the nation and its citizens. To enable them to discharge their constitutional mandate, they are entrusted with powers such as the power to arrest, detain, search, and to use force. However, police officers have often abused these powers with serious consequences on the image and operations of the organisation. The media is often inundated with news on unlawful arrests, arbitrary search and seizure, unlawful methods of investigations, and the excessive use of force. It is without a doubt that these incidenc

Abstract:

The article analyses an unconventional notion of the prevailing bargaining power. An example of the use of this concept in Russia is the restrictions for retail chains in the trade Law. The article analyses the worldwide experience of using similar provisions, including in the UK, the EU, France, Germany, Italy, Japan and South Korea. Taking into account the ambiguous international experience of applying the concept of the prevailing bargaining power, the author concludes that there is no need to adapt it into the Russian legislation.

Aim. While there is much talk of an emerging interest in spirituality in Australia, there is evidence of a declining affiliation with the established Churches. The impact of mainstream Christianity in these circumstances would appear to be waning. The continued attention given to the Church in the wake of these realities and that of the Church's dealing with situations of sexual abuse has often focussed around the way in which the Church has used its power and influence. While undoubtedly there is much evidence of the Church's service and care for its members and those most in need, more quest

Childhood sexual abuse (CSA) is one of the least studied HIV-related risk factors in Haiti although research in the United States and Europe has clearly established the link between childhood trauma and HIV risk behaviors.

The current study was a cross-sectional examination of baseline data collected during a randomized trial of a cognitive-behavioral stress management (CBSM) intervention in Haiti.

Abstract:

Violence against women has been recognised to affect all dimensions of women’s lives and health, involving both the physical and mental conditions of victims and their general well-being. Intimate partner violence (IPV) – characterized by one of the partners seeking power and control over the other – can be identified as either emotional, physical, or sexual abuse. Recent data show that 33% of ever-married women in Sub-Saharan Africa have survived this form of abuse. The literature lacks an overall measure of violence suitable for surveys since the Composite Abuse Scale (Revised) – Short Form

There was no statistical measurement of the debts that wracked the Greek and Roman economies, or of overall output, its distribution and value.

The education of modern economists consists largely of higher mathematics, which are used more in an abstract metaphysical way than one that aims at empirically mea

Abstract:

Abstract Quantitative modeling shows that artificial acetate buffering of test solutions should be implemented only below pH 4.6. In addition, this would allow a major simplification of the initial pH adjustment, which could then be made before saturation in the test gas, and subsequently an extension to autoclave testing. Above pH 4.6, not only artificial buffering is useless but it may even become detrimental when the constraining pH adjustment protocol of EFC 16 is not strictly followed (e.g. with some traditional test cells or in autoclave testing).

The abuse of criminal justice as a tool for repression is a hallmark of authoritarian regimes, with Russia serving as a compelling case study. This paper explores the evolution of criminal justice abuse in Russia, focusing on key mechanisms such as selective law enforcement, the erosion of judicial independence, and the strategic use of ambiguous legal provisions. High-profile cases, including those of Sergei Magnitsky and Alexei Navalny, highlight the regime's deliberate use of the judiciary to silence dissent, instill fear, and consolidate state power.

Abstract:

In this paper, we assess the implications of Elon Musk’s strategic control over Tesla, the pioneering company that has become central to the electric-vehicle transition. We document how, as Tesla’s CEO for 16 years, Musk has exercised strategic control to direct the transformation of the company from an uncertain startup to a global leader. Now that Tesla is profitable corporate predators (aka hedge-fund activists) may challenge Musk’s strategic control—a possibility of which the CEO is well aware. To retain his control over Tesla as a publicly listed company, Musk depends on holding a suffici

Abstract:

The use of technology to perpetrate domestic abuse, referred to as tech abuse, has become increasingly common. Domestic abuse charity Refuge reported that in 2019, 72% of women accessing its services said that they had been subjected to technology-facilitated abuse.

Abstract:

Turkey, Pakistan, India, Malaysia, and Indonesia span one of the longest continuously inhabited regions of the world. Centuries of cultural infusion have ensured these societies are highly heterogeneous. As plural polities, they are ripe for the kind of freedoms that liberal democracy can guarantee. However, despite having multi-party electoral systems, these countries have recently moved toward populist authoritarianism. Populism —once considered a distinctively Latin American problem that only seldom reared its head in other parts of the world— has now found a home in almost every corner of
