Belgrade School of Electrochemistry is not made of institutions, building, not even the community. It is made of people and their knowledge, achievements and results. It has no date of establishment nor defined start, and we hope it also won?t have an end. It was created as a result of several decades of scientists? efforts to accumulate knowledge and pass it on to future generations, to contribute with their research and results, to conquer new knowledge and advance the society as a whole. Its initiators and founders were not aware that they are starting something that will become recognised on a global level in the field of electrochemical science, they even didn?t want that ? they were simply devoted to their science and they tried to pass that devotion on to the future generations. The name Belgrade School of Electrochemistry appeared in the global electrochemical community even before we ourselves became aware of it, as a term which, first of all, defines one of the most important centres of electrochemical science in the world, and most definitely, the largest and the most developed in this part of Europe. It equally relates to the system of education and the importance and influence of the results and achieved knowledge of the scientists who originated from the Belgrade University on the world of electrochemistry.

AbstractWhile climate change involves spatial, epistemological, social, and temporal remoteness, each type of distance can be bridged with strategies unique to it that can be borrowed from analogous moral problems. Temporal, or intergenerational, distance may actually be a motivational resource if we look at our natural feelings of hope for the future of the world, via Kant’s theory of political history, and for our children. Kant’s theory of hope also provides some basis for including future generations in a theory of justice.

Acute Challenge

Over the decades, attempts were made to elaborate a legally binding single document on ocean resource management that would be acceptable to all countries. The culmination of this process was the adoption of the 1982 UN Convention on the law of sea. Since its entry into force, the Convention has become an important legal basis for ensuring the rational use of the world's ocean resources and their long-term conservation on behalf of future generations. At the same time, there remains the very acute challenge associated with finding a balance between reaching a global consensus on issues that are common to all and identifying topics that can be addressed and resolved by leaders at the global level. As humankind continues to postpone the adoption of urgent measures to prevent the effects of climate change, the environment deteriorates, while measures to mitigate these effects get more expensive and complex.

The purpose of this paper is to examine current positions in literature with regards to computer education and future jobs related to computer usage.The expansion of the use of computers has made computer literacy as essential as the basic skills of reading, writing, and arithmetic. Morf related the rapid expansion in the use of computers as follows: Among the more widely accepted scenarios of the future at work are those based on the assumption that technology will continue to grow exponentially (1983, p. 24). Therefore, as technology grows, our educational programs must incorporate the new knowledge necessary to function in the world of the information age. As Hart stated: We must prepare now to respond to the new technologies that will shape our future (1983, p. 11).

Statistical literacy presents many aspects about food security in the world. It highlights weaknesses, it creates awareness of threats in current situations, helps overcome challenges and creates opportunities for the future. Statistical data analysis enables existing food security interventions and programs to be reviewed and revised, and this better understanding of current situations enables more authoritative and relevant decision-making processes for the future. Statistical literacy involves skills and expertise in data description and interpretation (in words as well as in numbers) to name, explore and amend beliefs, opinions and suggestions. It helps decision-making processes about food security in a sub-nation, nation and region, as well as the world. This chapter will demonstrate the importance of open data and visualization, including its challenges and opportunities, in the food security context at national and global level to make decision-makers aware of the need to enhance their capacity for and investment in statistical literacy.

In addition to demographics and ongoing changes on structures of families and societies, the way in which persons are interacting with organizations is also changing. These interactions are defining service delivery and also the way in which we are and will be working. The power of digital information foster by cloud, mobility and social media is heavily influencing these changes. Twitter for instance, generates in one day more than 12 terabytes and Facebook more than 15 terabytes, while many organizations in the world are producing and processing petabytes of information.We are certainly facing a new way of doing things and a new work force generation with different values and certainly different ways of understanding prevention and rehabilitation. Do we need to add new strategies and data analysis to prevent accidents and diseases and to bring people back to work? How much information are we prepared to use to properly combine personal medical findings with socio-environmental variables? Can we see trends in our field or in other sectors that can show us where we might be heading? Where is the future heading?This presentation is about reflecting on some evidence with the aim of provoking discussions and motivate the participants to jointly keep on finding better ways to cope with the future.

<p class="IIABSTRAK333">Social climber is described as a person who is eager to gain a higher social status in his or her society. In the globalization era, many women show off their styles that are not in accordance with their belongings. Those who look glamorous do not pay attention to the Islamic economic value. Therefore how women restrict the future generations not to be excessive in appearing their performance to avoid undesirable social and psychological impacts. Principally, Islam does not justify social climber because in Islamic economics <em>istishod</em> is recognized as the balance between the world and the hereafter which is in line with the Islamic economic goal namely <em>al-falah</em>. It means a balanced luck between the world and the hereafter. But it does not mean showing off glamorous behaviour in the world as such so it causes jealousy among the surrounding environment and induces criminals to commit crime such as theft, robbery and others. Social climber is also regarded as <em>isrof</em> means extravagance. Islamic economics forbids people to live extra­vagant­ly and miserly regardless of its impact because Islamic economics advocate simple life.</p><p class="IIABSTRAK333">_________________________________________________________<strong></strong></p>S<em>ocial climber</em> digambarkan sebagai seseorang yang ingin men­dapatkan status sosial yang lebih tinggi di sekitarnya. Dalam kondisi zaman globalisasi banyak perempuan yang bergaya pamer tidak sesuai dengan kondisi materi yang dimilikinya. Mereka yang ber­penampilan glamor tidak memperhatikan nilai-nilai ekonomi Islam. Oleh karena itu bagaimana para perempuan membatasi agar generasi-generasi mendatang tidak berlebihan dalam berpenampil­an untuk menghindari dampak sosial dan psikologi yg tidak diingin­kan. Pada prinsipnya, Islam tidak membenarkan <em>social climber</em> karena di dalam ekonomi Islam dikenal istilah istishod yakni ke­seimbangan antara dunia dan akhirat yang sejalan dengan tujuan ekonomi Islam yang disebut <em>al-falah.</em> Artinya keberuntungan yang seimbang antara dunia dan akhirat, jangan hanya untung dunia yang justru pamer atau berperilaku glamor yang menyebabkan kecemburuan lingkungan sekitar dan mengundang penjahat me­laku­kan kejahatan misalnya pencurian, perampokan dan lain-lain. <em>Social climber</em> juga termasuk <em>isrof </em>yakni pemborosan. Ekonomi Islam melarang hidup boros berfoya-foya dan kikir tanpa memperhatikan dampaknya karena ekonomi Islam menganjurkan hidup sederhana.

Over Time

Most discussions of intergenerational justice focus on distributive justice between generations. Much of contemporary thinking about justice, though, focuses on how people might reason together in a respectful and egalitarian manner—with, that is, justice in political discourse. This chapter seeks to apply this latter sort of theorizing to the intergenerational context. It identifies two ways in which discursive justice might be applicable to that context. First, the present generation might wrong future generations by making discursive justice more difficult in the future; it might, for instance, create a future in which political agents must display greater virtue—both intellectual and moral—than present generations have had to demonstrate. Second, if we accept that agents may have interests that outlive themselves, then one generation might wrong another by failing to listen to the claims that persist through time and across generations. This discussion is compatible with the conclusion that moral claims generally diminish in importance over time; as the world in which a given generation’s moral commitments were made changes, so too does the moral pull of those commitments diminish.
