Waste Segregation

The critical need for behavioural change for effective solid waste management is well known. However, policies and programmes continue to underemphasize this crucial component in their design, especially in developing countries such as India. Further, empirical research on the psychosocial factors in solid waste management in developing countries is limited, including within India, where a large national programme for solid waste management is currently being implemented. Using a household survey based on the theory of planned behavioural change, we examine the psychosocial factors towards household waste segregation. We find that more than knowledge and attitude, consequences to behaviour play a critical role in intention as well as actual behaviour towards household waste segregation. Based on our findings, we draw implications for redesigning the national programme and contribute to empirical evidence on the role of psychosocial factors in solid waste management in the context of developing countries.

Point Of Departure

In order to understand the role of religion in the formation of European nations, we need to differentiate the terms we are using when we analyse their relationship. In the case of nation formation, my point of departure is to distinguish two basic types of process: the case of nation-states, i. e. nations with “their own” state and high culture since the Middle Ages, and the case of “smaller nations”, which emerged through national movements, where the ethnic communities tried to achieve all attributes of a fully formed nation. My reflections focus on the second type of nation formation. Speaking about the “religion”, we have to distinguish the role of the Church as an institution, the participation (or not participation) of the clergy, the degree of integration of the religious teaching into the national programme, and finally the presence of religious arguments in the everyday national thought of small nations. There existed no general model of interaction of these four factors in the study of smaller nations.

Prevailing View

This chapter commemorates Moshe Mishkinsky. Mishkinsky was one of the premier scholars of the history of the Jewish labour movement. Born in Białystok in 1917, Mishkinsky emigrated to Palestine at the age of 19, where he developed an interest in the Jewish workers’ movement. He distinguished himself in the scholarly community as an authority on the Jewish labour movement in general and on the history of the Bund in tsarist Russia in particular. He was among the first scholars to challenge the prevailing view, enshrined in the Bund’s own post-war five-volume Geshikhte fun bund, that the development of a national programme within Jewish socialist circles was the result of pressure from below, from the Jewish masses. Mishkinsky’s second contribution included a pioneering study, published in English in 1969, on the role of regional factors in the formation of the Jewish labour movement.

The Relationship

This study was designed to simultaneously examine if mothers’ personal healthcare autonomy within the household, and the level of their maternal-healthcare utilization, translates into better preventive (complete immunization) and curative (treatments for diarrhoea, fever and acute respiratory infection) efforts on morbidities in child healthcare. We analysed data pooled from three consecutive waves of the Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey: the surveys of 2008, 2013 and 2018. Using a multilevel logistic regression, we estimated the odds ratio for each of the outcome variables while adjusting for covariates. Findings revealed that mothers’ health autonomy is positively associated with child immunization and treatment of morbidities (except diarrhoea), a relationship moderated by the frequency of mothers’ exposure to media. Additionally, mothers’ healthcare utilization is positively associated with complete immunization, and all forms of morbidity treatment (except diarrhoea). Although the relationship between mothers’ healthcare-utilization and child immunization is not dependent on family wealth, however, the relationship between mothers’ healthcare utilization and treatment of morbidity is dependent. Policy effort should be geared towards stimulating mothers to seek appropriate and timely child healthcare and future studies could consider looking into the mediating role of paternal support in this relationship.

Article Analyse

The article is devoted to the problem of implementing the national programme for the spiritual revival of Kazakhstani society. Based on empirical data, the authors of the article analyse the degree to which students develop spiritual values of the programme and substantiate the role of the pedagogical community in developing mechanisms for its implementation. The authors conclude that most students are aware of the provisions of the programme, but have not made them part of their system of values, life goals, and attitudes. In the context of this, the authors offer their own conceptual approach to the issue of implementing the programme in the conditions of Kazakhstani universities

Nepal has a high Maternal Mortality Rates (MMR) in the South Asian region, partly due to the poor utilization of maternal and child healthcare services. The study aims to explore the influencing factors of maternal and child healthcare services among Nepalese women. Eighteen women, who had seven-days-old-children and those recently accessed maternal and child healthcare practices, were purposively selected. The face-to-face, In-depth-Interview (IDI) was applied to collect the information. The data were thematically analyzed, where Socio-Ecological Model (SEM) was applied as a theoretical framework. The study showed that the factors such as the knowledge of women, perception, and decision-making-autonomy at individual levels influenced maternal and child healthcare-seeking behaviors. Likewise, mothers-in-law and the role of husbands at intrapersonal levels, employment at institutional levels, peers and role of neighbors at community levels, and safe motherhood program at policy levels were significant factors for the utilization of maternal and child healthcare-seeking-behaviors. The negligence of women concerning pregnancy, inadequate health facilities, lack of specialist health workers with advanced equipment, and cultural taboos and beliefs were observed as score barriers for utilization of maternal and child health-seeking behaviors. The research strongly recommends that all women be aware of maternal and child healthcare and health-seeking behaviors at their initial ages.
