This study compares males and females perception of the effect of social media on their social interaction to understand the difference between both genders. The study follows a mixed-method methodology using a questionnaire with closed-ended items and open-ended questions. Responses to the questionnaire are collected form 207 male and female students from a public university in Saudi Arabia. In general, the results of the questionnaire are insignificant which indicate that there are no differences between both genders. However, the results of the open-ended questions show that females have a negative view of the effect of social media on human relations while males have a positive point of view. However, both genders have a positive point of view regarding balancing between friends and family in real life and virtual world through time management.

Ian Morris,

Ian Morris a társadalmi fejlődés (social development) fogalmával az emberi közösségek képességét fejezi ki „dolgok elintézésére” a világban. Az így értelmezett társadalmi fejlettség mérhető és összehasonlító állapotokat jelent, térben és időben. Morris 4 tényező (az energiafelhasználás, a társadalmi szerveződés, az információtechnológia és a hadviselő kapacitás) kvantifikálásával megszerkesztett indexét kifejtő könyvéből az információtechnológiára vonatkozó, a többihez hasonlóan a Kelet és a Nyugat összehasonlítására épülő fejezetet fordítottuk le. Úttörő okfejtései és becslései remek kiindulópontok, hogy újraértékeljük és alaposan végiggondoljuk az információtechnológia helyét és „küldetését” a beavatkozásképesség, a cselekvési hatékonyság szempontjából. A tanulmányt Z. Karvalics László bevezetésével közöljük. --- The civilization path of information technology: measurement and classification Ian Morris defines social development as “social groups’ abilities to master their physical and intellectual environments and get things done in the world”. From this approach, “social development is - in principle - something we can measure and compare through time and space”. The Social Development Index of Morris is based on the quantifiable attributes of four pillars: energy capture, social organization, information technology, war-making capacity, comparing the numbers of the West and the East. We have translated and published the information technology chapter of his book with Laszlo Z. Karvalics’ introduction to support the re-evaluation of the role and mission of information technology throughout the ages from a special point of view: to facilitate the ability to act effectively.

The article discusses functional and semantic status of Future Tense grammatical markers of the Korean language. Despite the fact that discussions on this issue have been going on for more than a dozen years, still among researchers, there is no consensus on how many grammemes make up the category of Tense in Korean, whether it contains an independent Future Tense grammeme, and if so, which markers should be relevant to it. Due to the relevance of the problem, the authors aim to give a brief overview of the opinions on the issue, dividing them into two groups - asserting the presence of the Future Tense grammeme in Korean or denying it, as well as to justify personal position on the status of grammatical markers with prospective semantics. As research material, various Korean grammar researches and Korean grammar (connective and finite endings and constructions with - (으)ㄹ Korean Future Tense participle marker) are used. The result of the study shows that Korean Tense category has no specific Future Tense forms as opposed to the Present and Past Tense forms. All markers with prospective semantics are modal, which means that the Futurum category in Korean implements itself in the functional and semantic field of modality rather than temporality. Authors argue statement that -(으)ㄹ 것이다 Korean construction has the ability to act as neutral non-modal Future Tense marker. According to the point of view of a systemically oriented approach to the grammatical units analysis, presented in the article, the conclusion about Korean -(으)ㄹ 것이다s modal status is made.

In the era of industrial revolution 4.0, many human activities depend on the gadget and the internet connection. We can observe the daily activities of human life right now. When they wake up in the morning, they usually start by using their handphones or gadget. This condition motivates educators to build a digital module in order to use the positive point of view of the Industry Revolution 4.0 era. In this chance, the researchers develop two topics that are very important for human life in Industry Revolution 4.0, whicht are, human literacy and technology literacy. Both of the topics were derived into two-courses. The course of development of students (Perkembangan Peserta Didik) will be representing the human literacy topics and the course of introduction to Biotechnology (pengantar bioteknologi) will be representing the technology literacy topic. The research is research and development. Furthermore, the products of this research are flipbooks that were uploaded on the Learning Management System managed by Universitas Ahmad Dahlan.

Este artigo reflete a respeito dos diferentes olhares que a modernidade projeta sobre as “sociedades da tradição”, vendo-as ora do ponto de vista negativo, em suas desordens, ora do ponto de vista positivo, a partir de suas ordens imanentes. Pierre Clastres é um dos antropólogos contemporâneos que focaliza o modo através do qual as sociedades ditas primitivas são freqüentemente percebidas pela ausência, no prisma da civilização ocidental: pela falta de trabalho, de Estado e de ordem. George Balandier coloca em questão esse imaginário ocidental sobre as sociedades tradicionais, mesmo quando tais sociedades aparecem como expressão do positivo, do equilíbrio. Entendendo que ordem e desordem são categorias reguladoras da vida humana, para o autor, é preciso repensar o conceito de tradição dotado de movimento. Assim, os povos da tradição não podem ser vistos como estagnados, parados no tempo, mas imersos em outros ritmos temporais, mesmo no encontro (confronto) com a modernidade. Observing tradition Abstract This article pretend procedure to the reflection of different view that the modernity project over “societies of tradition”, look at them sometimes from the negative point of view in its disorder, sometimes from the positive point of view, from its order immanent. Pierre Clastres is one of our present anthropologist that focus the manner through the societies supposed primitive are often perceive by absence in the prism of occidental civilization: because of absence of job, state and order. George Balandier puts in question this occidental imaginary about traditional societies, even when those societies appears like expression of positive and of the balance. For Balandier order and disorder are regulator category of human life; this author thinks that we need rethink the conceit of tradition endowed of movement. Thus, “the people of tradition”, can not be viewed like stagnated, standing up still, but immersed in others temporary rhythm, with own dynamics, even in the meeting (confront) with the modernity.

This study shows how cartoonists use iconic and stereotypical animals in their works to reflect society’s knowledge about the effects of climate change. Studying 1022 climate change cartoons including depictions of animals, we noticed that there is very little biodiversity depicted in cartoons. Cartoonists generally avoid using animals indigenous to their own countries; this point is especially true regarding the low presence of insects and other invertebrates. This text also encourages cartoonists to adhere to some recommendations to improve climate change communication. These guidelines are (1) using indigenous wildlife, (2) depicting invertebrate wildlife, (3) improving their knowledge about the biogeographical distribution of each species to avoid spreading misconceptions and (4) developing climate change communication from a positive point of view, appealing to potential improvements against the climate crisis, both for humans and for the rest of the species.

The theme of loneliness is one with a very long history, in ancient times being debated by philosophers and usually regarded from a positive point of view. The present work does not highlight the positive aspects of loneliness, but aproaches loneliness as a negative experience that accompanies the use of alcohol. Thus, we discuss about loneliness as the way in which individuals perceive, experience and evaluate the lack of communication with others. Then, we examine the relationship between loneliness and alcohol use, either as a cause, effect or maintenance factor. The paper highlights the interplay between loneliness and alcohol use and its importance in specialised treatment of the alcoholics. Also, the purpose of this paper is to illustrate the imperative need for the specialists to adress the problems that our clients deal with, from more that just a biological perspective. The case study illustrates a female's three attempts to escape alcohol dependence, each of the three attempts, enriching the intervention in order to compose a multi-faceted intervention, that we hope it will, ultimately, prove to be complete.

Purpose This paper aims to consider the ways organised crime exerts influence in legitimate commercial markets through its ability to act through corporate vehicles. Discussion of weaknesses in company registration procedures and the criminal justice system that enable this to happen. Development of strategic rather than tactical responses is proposed to counter it. Design/methodology/approach The paper presents case studies based on practitioner experience and discusses points that arise. Findings This paper considers the extent to which the problem represents a threat to the well-being and competitiveness of domestic commercial markets and how these threats can be most effectively addressed. Research limitations/implications This is a point of view paper authored by a practitioner with professional expertise in the field. Practical implications There is a need to develop strategic cross-agency responses to this problem. This will develop better levels of precautionary awareness of how these influences can establish footholds in commercial markets and provide a sounder basis for taking effective measures to contain and counter their influence. Social implications The social implications relate to the distorting influence of money derived from crime being deployed in legitimate spheres. Originality/value The originality/value of this paper is to raise awareness and re-invigorate discussion on the influence of organised crime in legitimate commercial markets.
