Human Exposure to Asbestos in Central Asian Countries and Health Effects: A Narrative Review
No full textThe discovery of the detrimental effects of asbestos on human health came long after its widespread use, with the first scientific evidence of asbestos-related diseases emerging in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Despite efforts to ban its use, asbestos continues to be mined and used in Central Asia (as well as in Russia, China, and other countries). To gain a deeper understanding of the situation in Central Asia, we have conducted a systematic review of scientific literature on the use of asbestos, exposure assessment, and health consequences of asbestos exposure in this geographic area. This review encompasses studies about exposure assessments, epidemiological data, and biochemical or clinical surveys conducted in Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Kyrgyzstan. A total of 18 articles met the inclusion criteria, and their content is summarised in this review, which represents the first attempt to systematically examine research on asbestos and its impact on the health of workers and the general population in Central Asia countries, including literature published in Russian and English. The findings here highlighted the substantial limitations of the currently available knowledge about the impact of asbestos on health in this geographical area
Вопросы ответственности в сфере предпринимательских отношений с участием искусственного интеллекта
No full textThis scientific work examines certain issues of liability in the field of business
relations involving artificial intelligence as the subject of research. The purpose of the
study is to identify criteria for legal regulation of the process of active implementation of
artificial intelligence systems in human life, as well as to determine the degree and range
of subjects of responsibility for harm caused by robots and other programs endowed with
artificial intelligence. In the modern world, the development of artificial intelligence
systems affects to a greater extent entrepreneurial relations, which are permeated with
innovative technologies, which leads to various violations of the interests of the parties
due to the lack of a legal framework and an integrated approach to legal regulation. The
work explores various approaches to solving problems related to determining the legal
nature of artificial intelligence using methods of scientific knowledge, such as analysis,
synthesis, simultaneous comparative analysis, general scientific and private scientific
research methods. The scientific value of the study lies in the fact that to date, no country in
the world has comprehensive legal regulation that takes into account modern technological
processes. The conclusions drawn in the study are an attempt to satisfy the request for
the creation of legal norms that take into account the growing use of artificial intelligence
technologies in business. This work has both theoretical and practical significance in the
formation of legal regulation of relations using digital technologies in business activities
and in commercial relations in the futureВ данной научной работе в качестве предмета исследования
рассматриваются отдельные вопросы ответственности в сфере предпринимательских
отношений с участием искусственного интеллекта. Целью исследования служит
выявление критериев правового регулирования процесса активного внедрения в жизнь
человека систем искусственного интеллекта, а также определение степени и круга
субъектов ответственности за вред, причиненный роботами и иными программами,
наделенными искусственным интеллектом. В современном мире развитие систем
искусственного интеллекта затрагивает в большей степени предпринимательские
отношения, которые пронизаны инновационными технологиями, что приводит
к различным нарушениям интересов сторон в связи с отсутствием правовой базы
и комплексного подхода к правовому регулированию. В работе исследуются
различные подходы к решению проблем, связанных с определением правовой
природы искусственного интеллекта с помощью методов научного познания,
таких как анализ, синтез, синхронный сравнительный анализ, общенаучных
и частнонаучных методов исследования. Научная ценность изучения заключается
в том, что к настоящему времени пока ни одна страна мира не имеет комплексного
правового регулирования, учитывающего современные технологические процессы.
Выводы, сделанные в исследовании, являются попыткой удовлетворения запроса
на создание правовых норм, учитывающих нарастающее использование технологий
искусственного интеллекта в бизнесе. Данная работа имеет как теоретическую, так
и практическую значимость в формировании правового регулирования отношений
с использованием цифровых технологий в предпринимательской деятельности,
в коммерческих отношениях в дальнейше
Biomedical processes and its impact on the formation of women’s reproductive rights in Kyrgyzstan
No full textThe advancements of contemporary science and technology, particularly within the realm of medicine, find extensive application across various facets of societal engagement. These circumstances, in turn, give rise to the establishment of novel domains within public relations, thereby shaping their legal framework. Questions of human rights and freedoms occupy the core of legal science. Simultaneously, the intricacies of public relations within this domain have given rise to the development of new branches of law, with the process of their distinct delineation being articulated in several scholarly works. The domain of women’s reproductive rights, relatively nascent and necessitating thorough examination, has engendered one of the most urgent challenges of our era. In recent decades, the exploration of women’s reproductive rights has extended beyond the purview of medical science to encompass the realm of legal scholarship. Hence, a comprehensive exploration of reproductive rights facilitates the enhancement of legal governance within this domain. The article delves into an analysis of the reproductive rights of women, focusing on their incorporation into the national legislative framework of Kyrgyzstan. An endeavor is undertaken to scrutinize the conceptual framework of women’s reproductive rights within the context of legal scholarship. A comparative assessment of the incorporation of conceptual elements within national legal statutes is conducted. Women’s reproductive rights are examined within the broader context of human rights and freedoms, elucidating certain shared aspects and distinctive characteristics

Occupational Health in Mountainous Kyrgyzstan
No full textBackground: In the period of transition from a centralized economy to the market economy, occupational health services in Kyrgyzstan have survived through dramatic, detrimental changes. It is common for occupational health regulations to be ignored and for basic occupational health services across many industrial enterprises and farms to be neglected. Objective: The aim of this study was to demonstrate the present situation and challenges facing occupational health services in Kyrgyzstan. Findings: The transition from centralized to the market economy in Kyrgyzstan has led to increased layoffs of workers and unemployment. These threats are followed by increased workload, and the health and safety of workers becomes of little concern. Private employers ignore occupational health and safety; consequently, there is under-reporting of occupational diseases and accidents. The majority of enterprises, especially those of small or medium size, are unsanitary, and the health status of workers remains largely unknown. The low official rates of occupational diseases are the result of data being deliberately hidden; lack of coverage of working personnel by medical checkups; incompetent management; and the poor quality of staff, facilities, and equipment.Because Kyrgyzstan is a mountainous country, the main environmental and occupational factor of enterprises is hypoxia. Occupational health specialists have greatly contributed to the development of occupational medicine in the mountains through science and practice. Conclusions: The enforcement of existing strong occupational health legislation and increased financing of occupational health services are needed. The maintenance of credible health monitoring and effective health services for workers, re-establishment of medical services and sanitary-hygienic laboratories in industrial enterprises, and support for scientific investigations on occupational risk assessment will increase the role of occupational health services in improving the health of the working population

Resisting Colonialism in the Uzbek Historical Novel Kecha va Kunduz (Night and Day), 1936
No full textAbstractIn this essay on the Uzbek author and poet Abdulhamid Sulayman Cholpon (1897–1938), his novel Kecha va Kunduz (Night and Day) is examined as a bold critique of both Russian and Soviet colonialism in early twentieth century Central Asia. Despite increasing censorship and previous arrests by Soviet authorities, Cholpon subtly employs a variety of techniques including satire and farce to undermine the legitimacy of the Soviet government that was being established around him. Bitterly portraying the hypocrisy and collusion of jadid reformists, Muslim clerics and local Russian officials, this unfinished novel, which was halted by the author’s execution in 1938, remains as one of the darkest comments on Soviet Central Asian history in the Uzbek language.

The State of Higher Education in Occupational Health and Safety in Central Asian Countries
No full textA healthy workforce is vital for the sustainable social and economic development of any country. Assuring occupational health and safety (OHS) depends not only on the passing of quality working legislation and inspection of workplaces, but also on preparation of qualified specialists on OHS. Aimed at assessing of relevance of the content of training at Central Asian universities to the needs in prevention of risks of accidents and injuries and promotion of a preventive culture in the workplace, and finding out how they are compliant with the recommendations of the Mainstreaming occupational safety and health into the education (2010), we examined curricula of 20 medical and non-medical universities across Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. The analysis of training programs showed that education in OHS and preparation of qualified specialists in Central Asiana countries is up-to-date and tailored to local needs for prevention of risks of accidents and injuries and promotes the notion of a preventive culture in the workplace
