In human life, materialism dominates. Human wants are unlimited, so there are various efforts to satisfy human desires. In fact, humans have weaknesses and shortcomings, so not all desires must be fulfilled. Islam as rahmatan lil alamin guarantees that resources can be distributed fairly. One of the efforts to ensure fair distribution of resources is to regulate how consumption patterns are in accordance with Islamic sharia which has been determined by the Al-Quran and As-Sunnah. Human desire to fulfill their needs has given birth to the concept of consumption theory.

Trust, reciprocity and a fair distribution of resources are cruzial in the sustainabhility of any economic system. As a matter of fact, those are values that should be promoted among the new generations, especially among university students enroled indegrees tha are related to economics.Under this context, we are interested in enhancing criticism and active reflectionamong undergraduates with respect to social values. With  such a goal in mind, we design a two step classroom task that includes playing the Trust Game (TG) in the first place and, second, a discussion activity.This paper is an ext5ension of Caballer-Tarazona et al. (2016) with a novelty: A new treatment is introduced in which subjects have information about the cumulated wealth of their partners.As a complement of the educational propose of the task, data collected during the experiment has been used to test the three hypotheses on trust and reciprocity among students.Two main result emerge: First, information has no effect on trust and reciprocity decisions. And second, in median, a gender effect in such decision is found.

The contribution outlines the Balzan Musicology Project (2013-2017) and the published papers arising from its 14 international workshops on global music history. The approach of the project is described as post-eurocentric, uniting music history and ethnomusicology. 29 of the papers address processes of music and modernisation in many countries, pinpointing not only ?Westernisation? but also transculturalism and transnational media. Open questions for a future musicology concern the history concept itself, and the fair distribution of resources and sharing opportunities to all those concerned.

AbstractAnselme & Güntürkün generate exciting new insights by integrating two disparate fields to explain why uncertain rewards produce strong motivational effects. Their conclusions are developed in a framework that assumes a random distribution of resources, uncommon in the natural environment. We argue that, by considering a realistically clumped spatiotemporal distribution of resources, their conclusions will be stronger and more complete.

The choice of risk assessment procedure is one of the essential stages of efficient structuring of processes on prevention, localization and elimination of the consequences of accidents at main pipeline transport facilities. The authors analyzed themed publications and regulatory documents, governing procedures of risk assessment and forecasting of the consequences of possible accidents, and defined main problems in this area. Procedure for the risk assessment of accidents at main pipeline facilities was developed, the basis of which is the expert evaluation method. The procedure includes the determination of the main criteria for the assessment the probability of accident initiation and development and the evaluation of the severity of its consequences, an expert evaluation of criteria significance, their classification, and creation of a rating for hazardous pipeline sections. The application of the procedure application allows to specify the list of facilities that require high priority forecasting of accidents consequences, thus to optimize the distribution of resources and the overall increase of efficiency in planning while defining forces and special technical devices, necessary for containment and rectification of emergencies. Expert evaluation method application allows considering the specifics of certain enterprises, their technical and technological peculiarities, thereby increasing forecasting accuracy.

El artículo aborda los problemas de equidad e inclusión en la educación superior en Chile desde una perspectiva que se sitúa más próxima al campo de la sociología de la Educación. Desde allí la perspectiva teórica que sirve de marco orientador del estudio se plantea la posibilidad de comprensión de los fenómenos sociales desde las creencias y acciones de los sujetos. También se asume que el logro de la justicia en una sociedad determinada y en la educación en particular, trasciende a la distribución equitativa de recursos y requiere que los actores educativos, caracterizados por una mayor diversidad, se reconozcan mutuamente unos a otros como lo plantean los teóricos del reconocimiento (Honneth, 2010).Palabras clave: Equidad, inclusión, educación superior, creencias, reconocimiento.Diversidade Cultural e Equidade em Faculdades privadas com Projeto de InclusãoO artigo aborda os problemas de Equidade e Inclusão no ensino superior no Chile desde uma perspectiva que se situa mais próxima ao campo da sociologia da Educação. A partir daí, a perspectiva teórica que serve de marco orientador do estudo, manifesta a possibilidade de compreensão dos fenômenos sociais, desde as crenças e ações dos sujeitos. Também se entende que o logro da justiça numa sociedade determinada e na educação em particular, transcende a distribuição equitativa de recursos e requer que os atores educacionais, caracterizados por uma maior diversidade, reconheçam-se mutuamente uns aos outros como expressam os teóricos do reconhecimento (Honneth, 2010).Palavras-chave: Equidade, Inclusão, ensino superior, crenças, reconhecimento.Cultural diversity and equity in private universities withinclusion projectThe article discusses the issues of equity and inclusion in higher educationin Chile from a perspective closest to the field of sociology of education.Based on that, the theoretical perspective that serves as a guiding frameworkof the study provides the possibility of understanding social phenomenafrom individual beliefs and actions. It is also assumed that the achievementof justice in a given society and in education in particular transcends theequitable distribution of resources. It requires that educational actors,characterized as more diverse, are mutually recognized, as it is suggestedby recognition theorists (Honneth, 2010).Keywords: Equity, inclusion, higher education, beliefs, recognition.
