Indonesia as one of the biggest Muslim countries in the world are very rich in the quality and quantity of<br />mosques architecture. The largest number of mosques in Indonesia is designed, built, and developed by local<br />communities. Unfortunately, the potention of these kind of mosques is often unconsciously forgotten in the<br />field of architectural studies. Therefore, this research is held to define these mosques’ spatial and<br />architectural design aspects which were considered as appropriate for the needs of their local communities’.<br />As a descriptive-qualitative architectural research, the methods employed in this research are (1) field<br />surveying, (2) architectural documenting, and (3) informal interview, which were held in three purposive<br />sample of mosques: Masjid An-Nur Jagalan, Masjid Gading Pesantren, and Masjid Jami’ Kauman Malang. These<br />three mosques were chosen because of their close relations with their surrounding communities and their long<br />time developments by their local societies. The result of this study shows that some specific spatial and<br />architectural elements which were found in these community based mosques are (1) the scale, size, and depth<br />of space, (2) the classification and the placement of space, (3) the architectural expressions, (4) the openness,<br />the boundaries, and the relationship between spaces, (5) the athmospherical qualities of space, (6) the<br />classification of the users in spaces, (7) the intensity of the users in spaces, and (8) the manner and the<br />position of the users in spaces.

The Relationship

Starting from the fact that the reality of the world of projections is comprehensive only when its architectural reality is created outside that reality, to become a new reality within reality, the paper addresses establishment of the relationship between an architect designer and reality, by his double presence within and outside reality. The existence of reality is questionable, because the actuality of the world of projections, which, though present in reality, often does not have meaning and is therefore created outside reality, only to exist again with meaning. In that relation, as the real world in reality, it is expressed also as an unreal world outside reality, whose imaginary reality is studied with architectural projection in a lifelike scope of reality. That way, the meaning of the projection in the process of architectural design is checked by projecting its meaning outside reality, while in the transition of an architectural design from one reality into another, the architect designer also develops his/her creative role, by reading and connecting individual (personal) and collective (universal) codes of the world of projections, which exists as two-folded and realistic in the reality scope. Key words: coding, reality, dream, world of projections, negation.

The paper presents a review of modern philosophical and methodological literature on exploring complexity. The research featured the effect of metaphor in the cognitive processes, research communication, and transmission of complex ideas. The author developed a classification of metaphors in the context of exploring complexity. The approach is based on the identification of a certain ontological and epistemic content of the metaphor. The contextual role of the metaphor in cognition processes depends on these aspects of its content. The author analyzed the groups of metaphors associated with such topics of exploring complexity as self-organization, ecology, and dialogue. The metaphors proved important in developing a complex vision of the relationship between the cognizer and the world. The study also examined the axiological aspects of the metaphors, as well as the connection between the metaphor and the new vision of rationality, typical of the philosophical reflection of complexity. The metaphor proved to have a heuristic, communicative, and organizational potential in conditions of methodological uncertainty. The context of philosophical and theoretical-methodological reflection of complexity makes it possible to study the metaphor in order to identify the existing models of exploring complexity and their cognitive stylistics.

The article highlights the issues related to the problems of identification and timely assessment and analysis of risks to ensure the economic security of entrepreneurship from the standpoint of growth of integration processes in the world economy. It is noted that the formation of modern business is associated with the emergence of new global threats to economic security on the example of the coronavirus pandemic COVID-19. In the conditions of transformation of entrepreneurial risks, when existing methods and mechanisms of their management cease to be fully adequate to new realities and modern challenges, it is necessary to develop a modern concept of risks, improve their classification and improve existing mechanisms for analyzing and assessing business impacts. Thus, the study of these problems is the main purpose and objectives of the scientific article. The study analyzes the causes of major risks and threats under the influence of the pandemic and the consequences for the economic activity of small and medium-sized businesses in the country. The results of the study allow defining the essence of the concept of risk, to describe the improved classification of the most probable risks for small. Medium business in crises caused by the introduction of "lockdowns" and changes in legislation, the most affected by economic and further economic recovery and develop some ways to assess and mitigate risks. It is also proposed to introduce future stress tests for all levels of enterprises and organizations, which will be able to take into account and analyze a wider range of possible scenarios and risks associated with pandemic threats and the impact on business stability and resilience. Entrepreneurial risk management is complicated by the current situation of the Ukrainian economy in the world, as well as changes in the political, financial and global spheres have an increasingly significant impact on economic processes, including at the level of each individual business structure. Prospects for further research on this topic may be the study of the relationship and possible consequences that arise in business under the influence of modern risks and the development of the concept of "stress resistance" of the enterprise.

Information on the International Genetic Classification of Noble Corundum is given. The scheme of location of the main deposits and occurrences of ruby-bearing complexes of the world is attached: 1 – magmatic; 2 – metamorphogenic; 3 – sedimentary (residual ancient crusts of chemical weathering, alluvial and dealluvial-alluvial placers). The location of ruby objects is shown, including the largest areas of depleted, currently operating and promising for the near future ruby deposits in 36 countries around the world. The main typological features of rubies are described. It is emphasized that all properties of rubies are determined by their primary indigenous origin. The typology of rubies is based on the principles of the relationship between magmatism and metamorphism in the formation of the groups under consideration. Hydroblasting and selective crushing methods for mining of corundum-bearing complexes are characterised. The trend towards increased research into the commercial exploitation of the primary sources of ruby-bearing complexes is highlighted. In countries with highly developed mining industries, underground mining is the main way to extract gemstones.

The career development field is continually growing and changing to reflect the current career realities of individuals, changes in society, and in the world of work. The main aim of this chapter is to explore the relationship between modern and indigenous career counselling. The relatively under-researched indigenous career counselling approach can be blended with modern career counselling to help students handle their challenges specifically related to career choice. This strategy provides an interpretive tool trying to create a third space or bridging areas between the indigenous and modern career counselling approaches within the Tanzanian context. The study revealed that some school counsellors employ both indigenous and modern counselling to address career challenges among the secondary school students. The blending of indigenous and modern career counselling creates a balanced guidance and counselling service which relates students to the careers that are relevant to their context which promotes the development of community-based careers.

Abstract: Sacred places are often characterized by architectural elements and arrangement of certain landscapes to form a different impression from the surroundings. Architecture is able to form space symbolically sacred through the arrangement that directs the congregation in worship. The natural elements in the landscape have an important function in forming the beauty that reminds human relations with the universe. Writing shows an understanding of the relationship between elements of nature (land, water, air, and light) with elements of architectural design in a place of worship. The case is Masjid Bahrul Ulum (MBU) in South Tangerang. MBU has a beautiful landscape, which supports the atmosphere from outside to inside the building. The researcher analyzed the role of natural elements in worship activities which were felt starting from the entrance of the mosque, the courtyard, the terrace, the place of ablution to the main worship hall. The search results show, the role of significant natural elements in the worship space sequence becomes a symbol as well as forming an atmosphere.Keywords: religious architecture, landscapes, mosques, prayer rooms, sacred.Abstrak: Tempat sakral sering ditandai dengan elemen arsitektur dan penataan lanskap tertentu hingga membentuk kesan yang berbeda dengan sekitarnya. Arsitektur mampu membentuk ruang menjadi sakral, secara simbolik melalui penataan yang mengarahkan jemaah dalam beribadah. Elemen-elemen alam pada lanskap memiliki fungsi penting dalam membentuk keasrian yang mengingatkan hubungan manusia dengan semesta. Tulisan ini merupakan upaya memahami keterkaitan antara elemen alam—tanah, air, udara, dan cahaya—dengan elemen perancangan arsitektur pada tempat ibadah yang mengarahkan umat dalam beribadah. Kasus peneliti adalah Masjid Bahrul Ulum (MBU) di Tangerang Selatan. MBU memiliki lanskap yang asri, sehingga mendukung suasana tentram hingga ke dalam bangunan. Peneliti menganalisis peran elemen alam dalam kegiatan peribadatan yang dirasakan mulai dari masuk lingkungan masjid, pelataran, teras, tempat wudu hingga ruang peribadatan utama. Hasil penelusuran menunjukkan, peran elemen alam dalam sequence ruang ibadah menjadi simbol sekaligus pembentuk suasana.Kata Kunci: arsitektur religius, lanskap, masjid, ruang ibadah, sakral.
