The development of NBICS technologies is one of the factors of transformation of the mechanism of social regulation, including law, which acts as a means and as an object of socio-economic modernization. The scientific search creates new contexts in the study of law, serves as a prerequisite for rethinking its es­sence and role in the life of modern society, determines the formulation of a number of questions, inclu­ding the consequences of technological progress for the legal existence of a person. In line with this kind of research, new areas of research have been identified – “legal cognitology”, “functional identify­ca­tion of law”. One of the promising ideas is an appeal to aesthetics, more precisely, to the regularities of the deve­lopment of law, which can be learned through the methodology of this field of knowledge. The sub­ject of the article is the methodology of knowledge of the law. The purpose is to establish the possibility of ex­pan­ding the methodology of knowledge of law through the methods of aesthetics and NBICS techno­lo­gies. The result is a reasonable hypothesis that the development and implementation of NBICS technolo­gies allow us to apply aesthetic methods to the establishment of the regularities of the genesis of law.

Safety Seat

In modern society, a plenty of car accident is occurred and a lot of people get injury every day. For this reason, the importance of car safety has been increased and car safety has been extensively studied. Especially in many countries, the law about using baby safety seat is legislated to protect babies and children from accident. Thus, recently numerous products for baby safety have been developed. In this paper, a new type baby car seat is proposed to protect babies and children from frontal accident. In order to achieve this goal, design requirements of spring and MR(Magnetorheological) Damper which are main elements for a new type baby car seat are investigated.

The Right

Our modern society has become transfixed with celebrity. Business people and marketers also endeavour to cash in on the popularity enjoyed by the stars and realise the value of associating merchandise or trademarks with the rich and famous. This leads to difficulties when the attributes of a person are apparently used without consent, which poses new questions to the law: should the law protect the individual against the unlawful use of his or her image? If so, to what extent should such protection be granted? These were some of the questions which the court had to answer in Wells v Atoll Media (Pty). The judgment in Wellshas redefined the right to identity and provided some clarity on what the infringement of that right would amount to. When the attributes of a person are used without consent, the right to identity can be violated in one of four ways. A person's right to identity can be infringed upon if the attributes of that person are used without permission in a way which cannot be reconciled with the true image of the individual concerned, if the use amounts to the commercial exploitation of the individual, if it cannot be reconciled with generally accepted norms of decency, or if it violates the privacy of that person.

Star Wars: The Old Republic and Fallen Earth are two of the many recent online gameworlds that depict disintegrating and conflict-ridden societies, in which the very legitimacy of the law is in doubt. Thus they become vehicles for critique of real modern society, and intentionally or unintentionally reflect social-scientific theories of social disorganization, institutional functionality, and the origins of law. This essay examines these examples in terms of the Iron Law of Oligarchy proposed a century ago by Robert Michels, and related classical theories that either contradict or extend it.

This paper reconstructs the argument of Axel Honneth’s recent book Das Recht der Freiheit as a theory of the institutionalization of freedom in modern society. In particular, it looks at Honneth’s argument for the realization of freedom in law and morality that is proposed as a contemporary re-interpretation of Hegel’s Philosophy of Right. Then I discuss Honneth’s argument for the reality of freedom in the ethical spheres of civil society, in particular in the family, the market and in democracy. Finally, the paper proposes some critical remarks to Honneth’s theory.

BACKGROUND: Aging is an increasing concern of modern society, particularly facial ageing. In recent years, the microinjection technique has increasingly been emphasised as a skin rejuvenation strategy. Hyaluronic acid (HA) plays an important role in the hydration of the extracellular space and can thus improve skin hydration, firmness and viscoelastic properties. AIM: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of HA microinjection in skin rejuvenation. METHODS: We enrolled thirty participants underwent three sessions of HA microinjection involving multiple injections in the face or back of the hands at 2-week intervals. The aesthetic outcomes were assessed at baseline and after 2, 4 and 8 weeks. Clinical evaluation was based on the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) and the Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale (WSRS). RESULTS: Evaluation of photographs from 2, 4 and 8 weeks revealed significant clinical improvement in the brightness, texture and wrinkling of the skin. Analysis of the GAIS and WSRS scores revealed statistically significant results after 2 months. CONCLUSION: Most of the participants felt satisfied with the treatment (93.3%).

AbstractThe subject of this article is the perception of the modern human body by young people, more specifically pupils of primary school. I based my research on the assumption that the human body, like the entire human being, is the result of a certain stage in the evolutionary process and it is entangled in social relationships. One may define it as nature functioning within culture. Throughout the centuries, various assets of the human body have been held in high esteem, according to the demands of the natural world and social norms imposed in a given society, arising out of the aesthetic canon. But the closer we get to the modern times, the less important is the value of the natural factor, and the more important is the cultural creation. The aim of my research was to answer the following questions: How do ten-year-olds perceive the modern human body of a woman and of a man, how do they describe it, what features do they pay attention to and in what order, and additionally, does this image correspond to the image of “ideal” body pursued by post-modern society and promoted in the mass media. The research encompassed 124 pupils.

Law at large underpins modern society, codifying and governing many aspects of citizens' daily lives. Oftentimes, law is subject to interpretation, debate and challenges throughout various courts and jurisdictions. But in some other areas, law leaves little room for interpretation, and essentially aims to rigorously describe a computation, a decision procedure or, simply said, an algorithm. Unfortunately, prose remains a woefully inadequate tool for the job. The lack of formalism leaves room for ambiguities; the structure of legal statutes, with many paragraphs and sub-sections spread across multiple pages, makes it hard to compute the intended outcome of the algorithm underlying a given text; and, as with any other piece of poorly-specified critical software, the use of informal, natural language leaves corner cases unaddressed. We introduce Catala, a new programming language that we specifically designed to allow a straightforward and systematic translation of statutory law into an executable implementation. Notably, Catala makes it natural and easy to express the general case / exceptions logic that permeates statutory law. Catala aims to bring together lawyers and programmers through a shared medium, which together they can understand, edit and evolve, bridging a gap that too often results in dramatically incorrect implementations of the law. We have implemented a compiler for Catala, and have proven the correctness of its core compilation steps using the F* proof assistant. We evaluate Catala on several legal texts that are algorithms in disguise, notably section 121 of the US federal income tax and the byzantine French family benefits; in doing so, we uncover a bug in the official implementation of the French benefits. We observe as a consequence of the formalization process that using Catala enables rich interactions between lawyers and programmers, leading to a greater understanding of the original legislative intent, while producing a correct-by-construction executable specification reusable by the greater software ecosystem. Doing so, Catala increases trust in legal institutions, and mitigates the risk of societal damage due to incorrect implementations of the law.

Este artigo é um convite crítico e reflexivo sobre a produção artística como realidade social a partir das obras de Pierre Bourdieu em A Economia das Trocas Simbólicas (2005) e Gilles Lipovetsky e Jean Serroy em A Estetização do Mundo (2015). A metodologia apresentada é de revisão de literatura pautada numa análise hermenêutica problematizadora das obras citadas, destacamos em Bourdieu: a) o campo das instâncias de consagração e difusão da arte e b) o mercado de bens simbólicos como sistema de produção, consumo e mercantilização da arte. E em Lipovetsky e Serroy: a compreensão da arte sobre a lógica de uma economia mercantil que é um processo de artealização capitalista da economia e de estetização da vida cotidiana, resultando num capitalismo transestético. Concluímos que as transformações acerca da estrutura do campo de produção artística como realidade social estão inteiramente ligadas aos interesses do mercado, sempre adotando novas estratégias de consumo sobre quem/como deve consumir e produzir; e de definições sobre o que é arte perante as dinâmicas capitalísticas da sociedade moderna. Todo o valor estético e poético da arte é dilacerado e transfigurado em produto que deve tão somente seduzir e vender gostos, desejos, emoções, sensações e sonhos. CRITICAL OUTLINE OF ARTISTIC PRODUCTION AS A SOCIAL REALITY: CONVERGENCES AND DIVERGENCES BETWEEN PIERRE BOURDIEU AND GILLES LIPOVETSKY AND JEAN SERROY ABSTRACT This article is a critical and reflexive invitation on artistic production as a social reality from the works of Pierre Bourdieu in The Economics of Symbolic Exchanges (2005) and Gilles Lipovetsky and Jean Serroy in The Estetization of the World (2015). The methodology presented is a review of literature based on a problematic hermeneutical analysis of the works cited, we highlight in Bourdieu: a) the field of the consecration and diffusion of art and b) the symbolic goods market as a system of production, consumption and commodification of art. And in Lipovetsky and Serroy: the understanding of art on the logic of a mercantile economy, which is a process of capitalist artalization of economy and aestheticization of everyday life, resulting in a transaesthetic capitalism. We conclude that the transformations about the structure of the field of artistic production as a social reality are entirely linked to the interests of the market, always adopting new consumption strategies on who / how to consume and produce; and of definitions about what is art before the capitalistic dynamics of modern society. All the aesthetic and poetic value of art is torn and transfigured into a product that must only seduce and sell tastes, desires, emotions, sensations and dreams.

Modern society can be identified as a capitalist civilization, rapidly developing through the accumulation of capital in the process of entrepreneurial (primarily innovative scientific and technical) activities, which radically transformed the world around us and ensured the progress of mankind. Fighting against the closed elite-hierarchical religious system of the Premodern (traditional society), Modern (capitalism) raised the slogan: Freedom, Equality, Fraternity, which, according to its ideologists, could be realized on the basis of the secular democratic structure of society and scientific and technological progress. The article says that ultraeconomics is an economy that is not justified by anything (labor, capital, innovation etc.). The necessary condition for the victory of ultraeconomics was the destruction of scientific and rational reason, morality and conscience. This dirty work was done by countermodernism and ultra-liberalism. The victory of countermodernism, ultra-liberalism and ultra-economism led to the state of Postmodernism, and then to the global financial and economic crisis, the way out of which is impossible in the Postmodern paradigm.

The article discusses some issues of the essence of modern financial law, which, according to the author, remains unchanged, but is filled with new content, which is associated with constantly and rapidly changing social processes of digitalization of society, with all objectivity influencing the content and form of law in general and financial law in particular. The article emphasizes that these processes influence, but do not change the essence of financial law, since otherwise the social phenomenon itself — the law changes. The article analyzes the main essential features of financial law in their unity, interconnection and interaction, taking into account filling them with new content and emphasizing the inviolability and fundamental nature of the legal foundations of modern society, the need for continuous improvement of legal regulation as the most effective and fair instrument of influence on social processes.
