Józef Tischner as a Hermeneutic (of Literature): A Case Study
No full textThe article analyzes the interpretation ofWitold Gombrowicz’s The Wedding by Józef Tischner, the founder of the philosophy of drama. It distinguished and describes three stages of exegesis. It also explores what hermeneutics defines as pre-understanding of the text. In Tischner’s case, there are four constitutive assumptions of his own philosophy of drama. The article also points to the passages of the text that were omitted by the philosopher and explains the reasons for this decision. The most important of these is the ambiguous status of such concepts as mimesis, reciprocity and desire, which Gombrowicz developed in the [email protected]ł Polonistyki, Uniwersytet JagiellońskiBonowicz Wojciech (2005), Nota wydawcy, w: J.

Access to files of preparatory proceedings in Polish criminal procedure
No full textProblematyka niniejszej pracy koncentruje się wokół rozważań nad kwestią dostępu do akt sprawy na etapie postępowania przygotowawczego w polskiej procedurze karnej. Głównym celem pracy była próba odpowiedzi na pytanie, czy aktualne regulacje w polskim prawie karnym procesowym są zgodne ze standardami wyznaczonymi przez Konstytucję Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej, Europejską Konwecję Praw Człowieka oraz unijną dyrektywę w sprawie prawa do informacji w procesie karnym. Do analizy hipotezy badawczej posłużono się metodą dogmatyczno-prawną oraz historyczno-opisową a także posiłkowo przedstawiono zarys analogicznej instytucji procesowej w systemie prawnym Republiki Federalnej Niemiec oraz Stanów Zjednoczonych Ameryki Północnej. W pracy przedstawiono ewolucję kształtowania się tej instytucji od momentu unifikacji prawa w Polsce oraz zestawniono aktualne regulacje ze standardami międzynarodowymi. Przeprowadzona analiza doprowadziła do wniosku, że instytucja dostępu do akt to jeden z głównych filarów praw przysługujących uczestnikowi postępowania karnego. Wiedza na temat przebiegu postępowania już od najwcześniejszego etapu, zgromadzona w odpowiednim zakresie i czasie, pozwala na ralizację zasady rzetelnego procesu, prawa do obrony oraz zasady równości stron. W tym też aspekcie polska procedura karna wymaga znaczących zmian, by w pełni dostosować jej przepisy do standardów międzynarodowych.The issue of this PhD thesis focuses on considerations regarding the matter of access to acts’ files during preparatory proceedings in Polish criminal procedure. The main aim of this work was to determine whether current regulations in Polish criminal procedure are legal under standards of Contitution of the Republic of Poland, European Convention of Human Rights an EU-directive on the right to information in criminal proceedings. To analise research hypothesis the dogmatic-legal and historic-descriptive method was used and additionally the outlines of analogous institiotions in legals systems of Germany and the USA was presented. This thesis presents the evolution of this institution since the unification of law in Poland and juxtaposes current regulations with international standards. The analysis leads to the conclusion that institution of access to files is one of main legal pillars which participants of proceeedings are entitled to. The knowledge about the course of the proceedings since the earliest stage, collected in proper scope and time, allows to fulfill the fair trial principle, right to defense and equality of arms principle. Polish criminal procedure requires significant changes in that very aspect to fully implement international standards.Uniwersytet w Białymstoku. Wydział Praw
Change of Risk Perception and Risk Communication in County Cork, Ireland after Former Hurricane Ophelia (2017)
Get PDFDue to its location at the south-west coast of Ireland County (Co.) Cork is frequently affected by post tropical cyclones (PTCs). There have been several records of these post hurricanes in the past with the last severe PTC being Hurricane Ophelia in 2017. It caused severe disruption in the whole country, especially in Co. Cork with several thousand people without water, power and mobile service for up to 10 days and thousands of uprooted trees which blocked roads. PTCs, like Ophelia, will become more frequent under climate change conditions due to warmer sea surface temperatures and decreased vertical wind shear. Hence, hurricanes can reach northern latitudes more easily and have a higher chance of making landfall in Co. Cork. This thesis assesses the risk perception towards natural hazards (NHs) and the perception of the risk communication of hurricane Ophelia by the citizens of Co. Cork and suggests improvements in communication based on the people’s perception. This was achieved by conducting a standardised survey to analyse the perception. The risk communication chain, its content and media involved were evaluated with interviews with professionals involved in risk management in Ireland. Improvement suggestions were extracted of the survey and the expert interviews as well and have been ranked by the participating experts according to their importance. The people of Co. Cork are not overly concerned about being affected by NHs. The three hazards they feel threatened by most, after Ophelia hit the country, are storms, river floodings and hurricanes. Before Ophelia made landfall, they only ranked hurricanes in the 8th place (out of 8). Ergo, after experiencing Ophelia people are much more aware of hurricane risk in Ireland. People were very satisfied with the information they received during Ophelia. The improvements they wished for are: 1) information on how to deal with and how to prepare for impacts of the storm, 2) the impacts that can be expected locally and 3) information where to go to in case of severe impact to property. These are mostly in line with the improvements the experts ranked as most important for Cork. Experts voted the suggestion to include information on behavioural advice into risk communication before the NH hits and advice on how to organise for impacts afterwards as their number one priority. Their second rank is to have education and training for the citizens in Cork. On third place they voted for a change to impact forecasting. Even there are no central buildings or shelters available in Co. Cork, this improvement suggestion was only voted on rank 13 by the experts (out of 14). Having a participatory approach in risk communication can overcome the discrepancies between the wishes of the population and the ones of the experts and would lead to a better understanding of all stakeholders involved in risk communication and can reduce vulnerability of the people in Co. Cork to the impacts of NHs. The implementation of these activities would be in line with best practice examples and would support the guidelines of the Irish Framework for Major Emergency Management
Evaluacion de reservorios potenciales de carbono azul en el Golfo de Guayaquil, Ecuador
Get PDFMangrove forests have been studied broadly in the recent three decades for their outstanding ability to sequester carbon in the beneath soil and other beneficial ecosystem services. Endeavors to conserve and regenerate mangrove cover are still increasing worldwide as a mechanism to include them in NDCs and carbon markets. Therefore, decision-makers in the private and public sectors require identify possible areas for conservation and restoration prior to blue carbon project investment. Thus, an integral assessment of potential mangrove carbon reservoirs in a landscape scale, considering environmental and socioeconomic factors was performed. This study was aimed to determine areas with the highest blue carbon sequestration potential in the Gulf of Guayaquil through the construction of a Blue Carbon Potential Index (BCPI) based on Spatial Multicriteria Analysis (SMCA). A narrative integrative literature review was employed to select indicators of mangrove carbon sequestration gains and losses. These indicators were pondered following the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) with the judgments of two experts and reclassified in four potential categories based on their thresholds. Since no consensus was achieved in the indicator importance hierarchization, a comparative of equal weighting method and AHP weighting was implemented. The linear combination rule was used to integrate these factors into a unique-scaled index supported by a geographic Information System (GIS). The results showed that 15.82% and 16.21% of the study area belonged to high and moderate potential of blue carbon sequestration respectively. Moreover, no significant differences were found between the two weighting methods applied. The BCPI provides a comprehensive understanding of spatial distribution of blue carbon potential reservoirs and grants a quantification of this potential to prioritize conservation and restoration areas.Los manglares se han estudiado ampliamente en las tres últimas décadas por su extraordinaria capacidad para secuestrar carbono en el subsuelo y otros servicios ecosistémicos beneficiosos. Los esfuerzos por conservar y regenerar la cobertura de manglares siguen incrementando mundialmente como mecanismo para incluirlos en las NDC y los mercados de carbono. Por lo tanto, los responsables de la toma de decisiones en los sectores público y privado requieren identificar posibles áreas para la conservación y restauración previo a la inversión en proyectos de carbono azul. Por ello, se realizó una evaluación integral de potenciales reservorios de carbono en manglares a escala de paisaje, considerando factores ambientales y socioeconómicos. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar las áreas con mayor potencial de secuestro de carbono azul en el Golfo de Guayaquil a través de la construcción de un Índice de Potencial de Carbono Azul (BCPI) basado en el Análisis Espacial Multicriterio (AEMC). Se empleó una revisión bibliográfica narrativa integradora para seleccionar los indicadores de las ganancias y pérdidas en el secuestro de carbono de los ecosistemas de manglar. Estos indicadores se ponderaron siguiendo el Proceso Analítico Jerárquico (PAJ) con los juicios de dos expertos y se reclasificaron en cuatro categorías potenciales basadas en sus umbrales. Dado que no se alcanzó un consenso en la jerarquización de la importancia de los indicadores, se realizó una comparativa entre el índice con ponderación igual y el índice con ponderación a través de PAJ. Se utilizó la regla de combinación lineal para integrar estos factores en un único índice escalado apoyado en un SIG. Los resultados mostraron que el 15,82% y el 16,21% del área de estudio pertenecían a un potencial alto y moderado de secuestro de carbono azul, respectivamente. Además, no se encontraron diferencias significativas entre los dos métodos de ponderación aplicados. El BCPI proporciona una comprensión y cuantificación de la distribución espacial de los reservorios potenciales de carbono azul para priorizar las áreas de conservación y restauración
A Printing Strategy for Embedding Conductor Paths into FFF Printed Parts
Get PDFA novel approach to manufacture components with integrated conductor paths involves embedding and sintering an isotropic conductive adhesive (ICA) during fused filament fabrication (FFF). However, the molten plastic is deposited directly onto the adhesive path which causes an inhomogeneous displacement of the uncured ICA. This paper presents a 3D printing strategy to achieve a homogeneous cross-section of the conductor path. The approach involves embedding the ICA into a printed groove and sealing it with a wide extruded plastic strand. Three parameter studies are conducted to obtain a consistent cavity for uniform formation of the ICA path. Specimens made of polylactic acid (PLA) with embedded ICA paths are printed and evaluated. The optimal parameters include a groove printed with a layer height of 0.1 mm, depth of 0.4 mm, and sealed with a PLA strand of 700 µm diameter. This resulted in a conductor path with a homogeneous cross-section, measuring 660 µm ± 22 µm in width (relative standard deviation: 3.3%) and a cross-sectional area of 0.108 mm2 ± 0.008 mm2 (relative standard deviation 7.2%). This is the first study to demonstrate the successful implementation of a printing strategy for embedding conductive traces with a homogeneous cross-sectional area in FFF 3D printing

The impact of the US-China trade war on the Chinese motor insurance market
Get PDFThe prolonged US-China trade tension, initiated in 2017, has led to significant consequences, impacting global supply chains and causing economic tension between the two largest economies. Particularly affecting the automotive sector, the trade war has influenced motor insurance premiums in China, contributing to a declining trend in non-life insurance growth rates from 2017 to 2021. However, a positive outlook is projected for 2023-2026, indicating potential recovery opportunities. The trade war's short-term impacts on the Chinese motor insurance market include increased costs, low premium growth, and economic challenges. In the long term, transformative changes, including market diversification, innovative products, data-driven pricing, and technology-enabled risk prevention, are expected to shape a dynamic and competitive motor insurance landscape in China, offering growth potential despite initial challenges
ESG – Challenges in the reinsurance of renewable energies
Get PDFIn its Renewables 2022 Report, the International Energy Agency (IEA) projects that the share of renewable energies in the global energy mix will increase from 22.8% in 2015 to 38.1% in 2027. This trend goes hand-in-hand with increasing construction of plants for the generation of renewable energies, leading to increased demand for (re)insurance. Comparable to the development of traditional energy sources, the hedging of current risks is a key element in the further development of renewable energies. According to projections by the IEA, by 2027 most of the energy from renewable sources will be generated using photovoltaics or solar as well as onshore and offshore wind
Emergency preparedness planning for water supply in nursing homes - Development of recommendations for emergency preparedness planning for water supply in German nursing homes
Get PDFBasierend auf einer systematischen Literaturrecherche werden in dieser Arbeit Empfehlungen zur Reaktion auf den Ausfall der Wasserversorgung in deutschen Pflegeheimen erstellt. In Experteninterviews werden diese Empfehlungen von Expert*innen aus dem Pflegeheimbereich auf deren Umsetzbarkeit hin bewertet. Basierend auf den Expertenrückmeldungen wird ein Leitfaden zur Vorplanung und Reaktion auf einen Ausfall der Wasserversorgung in Pflegeheimen erstellt. Aus Verbrauchsdaten von Pflegeheimen wird der Normalverbrauch an Wasser ermittelt und mit Literaturdaten verglichen. Dabei zeigen sich starke Unterschiede zwischen den Werten. Bei Annahme des höchsten Wertes von 180 Litern/Person und Tag werden ca. 130 % des deutschen Durchschnittsverbrauches
benötigt. Bei Umsetzung der empfohlenen Maßnahmen im Ereignisfall sinkt der Verbrauch je Pflegeheimbewohner*in auf 58 bzw. 70 Liter/Tag ab. Das liegt 5 Liter unterhalb der von der Ersten Wassersicherstellungsverordnung vorgesehenen Menge für den Verteidigungsfall. Neben Maßnahmen zur Verbrauchsreduktion werden auch Lösungen zur leitungsungebundenen Verteilung des Wassers in der Einrichtung erarbeitet. Eine Erprobung der vorgeschlagenen Maßnahmen könnte deren Umsetzbarkeit abschließend bewerten und auch die Abschätzung der Verbrauchsmenge bestätigen oder widerlegen.Based on a systematic literature review, this paper develops recommendations for responding to water supply failure in German nursing homes. In expert interviews, these recommendations are evaluated by experts from the nursing home sector in terms of their feasibility. Based on the expert feedback, a guideline for pre-planning and reacting to a water supply failure in nursing homes will be developed.
The normal consumption of water is determined from consumption data of nursing homes and compared with literature data. This reveals significant differences between the values. Even if the highest value of 180 litres/person and day is assumed, about 130 % of the average water consumption per person and day in Germany is needed for nursing home residents and workers. If the recommended
measures are implemented in the event of an incident, the consumption per nursing home resident drops to 58 or 70 litres/day. This is 5 litres below the proposed quantity in case of war, regulated by the Erste Wassersicherstellungsverordnung.
In addition to measures to reduce consumption, solutions are also being developed for the distribution of water in the facility without the use of pipes. A trial of the proposed measures could finally evaluate their feasibility and also confirm or refute the estimate of the consumption quantity
Bridging the Implementation Gap between Pomace Waste and Large-Scale Baker’s Yeast Production
Get PDFThe objectives set in the European Green Deal constitute the starting point of this review, which then focuses on the current implementation gap between agro-industrial wastes as resources for large-scale bioprocesses (e.g., baker’s yeast, bioethanol, citric acid, and amino acids). This review highlights the current lack of sustainability of the post-harvest processing of grapes and apples. In light of the European Green Deal, industrial biotechnology often lacks sustainability as well. We reviewed the recent progress reported in the literature to enhance the valorization of grape and apple pomace and the current failure to implement this research in technical processes. Nevertheless, selected recent papers show new perspectives to bridge this gap by establishing close collaborations between academic teams and industrial partners. As a final outcome, for the first time, we drew a circular flow diagram that connects agriculture post-harvest transformation with the industrial biotechnology and other industries through the substantial valorization of apple and grape pomace into renewable energy (solid biofuels) and sugar extracts as feedstock for large-scale bioprocesses (production of baker’s yeast industry, citric acid, bioethanol and amino acids). Finally, we discussed the requirements needed to achieve the successful bridging of the implementation gap between academic research and industrial innovation
