Goal. Find out the opinion of the Kazakh population about post-mortem organ donation to save the lives of patients with terminal diseases of organs in need of transplantation. Material and methods. The survey was conducted in the form of an anonymous online questionnaire. Our study involved 1176 people, of these, 309 are male and 867 are female. The survey participants were citizens of different regions of the country and different nationalities, the average age of the participants was 38.7±1 years (18-73 years). Results and discussion. 422 participants (36%) agreed to become a posthumous donor, and 644 (55%) refused to donate. 88 (7.6%) of the participants doubted their choice, the other 22 participants did not answer this question. During the survey, out of 1,176 respondents, 991 (84%) participants know that organ transplantation is being carried out in the country, of which 384 (38.7%) participants agree to post-mortem donation, and 607 (61.2%) participants refuse post-mortem donation. 185 (16%) participants are not informed that organ transplantation is being performed in the country, of which 49 (26.5%) participants agree to post-mortem donation, and 136 (73.5%) participants refuse post-mortem donation. As a result, it was found that informed participants agreed to post-mortem donation in 38.7% of cases, and uninformed participants agreed in only 26.5% of cases. Conclusion. For the development of organ transplantation from a cadaveric donor in Kazakhstan, it is necessary to inform the population about organ transplants carried out in large transplant centers of the country, and with good long-term results, to inform the population about the laws of the Republic of Kazakhstan on organ transplantation. It is very important for the population to guarantee security and huge support from the government of the country. In addition, for the development of organ transplantation from a posthumous donor in Kazakhstan, a lot depends not only on the population of the country itself, but also on social, moral, ethical, economic, and humanitarian support from the state government. Organ transplantation from a post-mortem donor is one of the most complex types of medical care, requiring a high level of professional and material support and coordinated actions at all levels of management. This area cannot develop without the support of society, the government, as well as without a positive view of the population. Keywords: organ transplantation, donor, opinion of the population of Kazakhstan.

Suitable Framework

This article views section 4 of the Patents Act 57 of 1978 against section 25 of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996 and Article 31 of the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights of 1994 (hereafter TRIPS). The purpose is to find a suitable framework for the state/government use/utilisation of patented products or processes for public purposes. A comparison is done with the Crown use provisions in United Kingdom, Australian and Canadian law to find a suitable approach to questions relating to remuneration for state use, the prior negotiations requirement set by Article 31 of TRIPS, and the public purposes and exclusive patent rights that would be included under state use. The COVID-19 international pandemic has caused a state of national disaster in South Africa, which is exactly the kind of situation of extreme urgency envisioned by the exception in Article 31 of TRIPS, which permits the state use of patents without requiring prior negotiations with the patent owner. In the battle against COVID-19 and its concomitant fallout, the South African government (and authorised private parties) would be permitted to utilise patent rights without explicit authorisation from the patent owner and without prior negotiations, but subject to the payment of reasonable remuneration by the government and other terms and conditions as agreed upon or as determined by a court. This may include making (manufacturing), using, exercising, and importing patented products (for example, personal protective equipment, pharmaceuticals, ventilators and diagnostic tests) deemed necessary in the fight against COVID-19. Foreign jurisdictions considered in this article indicate that section 4 of the Patents Act 57 of 1978 may certainly benefit from an update to provide detailed guidance on the state use of patented products or processes for public purposes. In the interest of a timeous offensive against the COVID-19 virus, the patent provisions need a speedy update to allow state use compliant with TRIPS and the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996.

The unlimited development and extensive use of ICT has helped governments around the world to innovate and improve public services through the advantages of egovernment services. First step of this study was an attempt to measure the quality of e-services provided by the usercentric Kuwait Government Online Portal through investigating the quality standards of e-government services and different quality dimensions of e-government services as identified in the literature. Post examining E-service quality models one model was selected and used to validate the quality of e-services provided by the Kuwait Government Online Portal. A survey was presented to 486 valid participants through an online questionnaire. The result of the survey in general showed a diverse quality results which was around the range of “Neutral”. This could be due to having a large number of diverse e-services provided by more than 60 government agencies all enclosed in the Kuwait Government Online Portal. The second step of this study was to validate the result from the survey through conducting a semi-structured interviews by the authors with three top management officials at the government entity responsible for implementing e-government program in Kuwait. The interviews have revealed interesting insights, namely the existence of strong presence of silo-mentality in government entities which could be the main cause for not achieving integrated e-services. Future work will include studying specific e-services and defining suitable categorization that helps in determining their quality. The model that was used in this study was based on high-level dimensions that needs to be broken down into subdiminutions that could contribute to increasing the accuracy of the results of e-service quality evaluation. In addition, measuring the effect of silo-mentality of the government over the quality of e-services in Kuwait is desirable.

The emergence of Web 2.0 introduced a new potential in e-government which empowers citizens to share information and mobilize spontaneously online, and enables citizens to communicate directly with the government and its elected officials while significantly lowering some of the traditional barriers of e-government adoption such as the lack of financial resources and technical expertise in government. This paper examined the pattern of Web 2.0 adoption on state web portals to identify key factors influencing its adoption. The results suggest that while the potential of the new technology is immense, its adoption is constrained by a number of political factors. In particular, the authors find that there is disinclination toward adopting Web 2.0 by incumbent governors while the technology was favored by governors who are newly elected into their office. Moreover, there was disinclination toward the new technology by governors with high approval rating while those with low approval rating sought to adopt them. Our findings point to a perception by governors about Web 2.0 as a powerful and effective instrument of communication but, at the same time, politically risky, creating disincentive to adopt the technology by governors with established political support. There is a “more to lose” mentality about Web 2.0 by political actors with high level of political support while “less to lose” by those with thin political support. This research sketches a picture of Web 2.0 adoption in government where political instability and newcomers facilitates the use of Web 2.0 increasing dialogue and communication with citizens while higher levels of political stability and support reduces the use of Web 2.0, diminishing the channel of communication created by the new technology.

The international rise of mass education over the past few centuries is often seen by historians as due to the increasingly long arm of the state (see, e.g., Lindert 2004). On this view, the early rise and high level of mass education in the United States in contrast with its colonial ruler Great Britain reflects the ability of Americans to mobilize local and state government support for public education from the earliest days of the Republic. Indeed, institutions dating to the colonial era could have been at work. The articles in this special section are informed by the view that schools and the instructional services they offered during the antebellum period were subject to the choices of buyers and sellers of these services. The article by Kim Tolley provides a rich case study of this basic principle with her account of Mrs. Sambourne's foray into music teaching in early-nineteenth-century North Carolina.

Abstract:Indonesia is a country with a society that has a very high level of diversity (heterogeneous-pluralistic), and is framed in a united harmony of solidarity, and is based on Pancasila as the ideology of the nation. This is in accordance with the ideals of the nation's founders with the motto Unity in Diversity (they remain one). Such diverse community conditions are certainly easily provoked by SARA issues, especially religious issues and have the potential to cause enormous conflict. The presence of hardliners in all walks of life is certainly a challenge for the government. Hardliners try to replace the ideology of the nation with the Wahhab / Muslim Brotherhood ideology that is extreme, hard, and rigid. This hardliner group aspires to the Khillafah Islamiyah state which is clearly in conflict with the foundations of the Pancasila state and the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. The birth of the Wasathiyah Paradigm as an intellectual response to his concern for the thought of hardliners who tried to divide the nation. Wasathiyah's true understanding is able to harmonize inclusive and moderate thinking so as to create peace in the life of the nation and state, as well as building a progressive civilization.Keywords: Hardliners, Wasathiyah, Moderation Abstrak: Indonesia adalah negara dengan masyarakat yang  memiliki tingkat keberagaman sangat tinggi (heterogen-pluralistik), dan di bingkai dalam satu kesatuan harmoni solidaritas, serta berlandaskan Pancasila sebagai ideologi bangsa. Hal ini sesuai dengan cita-cita para pendiri bangsa dengan semboyan Bhineka Tunggal Ika (berbeda-beda tetap satu). Kondisi masyarakat yang beragam seperti inilah tentu mudah terprovokasi oleh isu-isu SARA terlebih isu agama dan berpotensi menimbulkan konflik yang sangat besar. Hadirnya para kelompok garis keras di segala lini kehidupan tentu menjadi sebuah tantangan bagi pemerintah. Kelompok garis keras berusaha mengganti ideologi bangsa dengan ideologi Wahabi/Ikhwanul Muslimin yang ekstrem, keras, dan kaku. Kelompok garis keras ini mencita-citakan negara Khillafah Islamiyah yang jelas-jelas sangat bertentangan dengan dasar negara Pancasila dan UUD NRI 1945. Hal tersebut menjadi sebuah acaman yang membahayakan bagi persatuan bangsa dan berpotensi mendorong bangsa kita ke dalam jurang kehancuran. Lahirnya Paradigma Wasathiyah sebagai respon para intelektual terhadap keprihatinnannya terhadap pemikiran kelompok garis keras yang berusaha memecah belah bangsa. Pemahaman Wasathiyah yang benar mampu menyelaraskan pemikiran yang inklusif dan moderat sehingga mewujudkan kedamaian dalam kehidupan berbangsa dan bernegara, serta membangun peradaban yang berkemajuan.Keywords: Kelompok Garis Keras, Wasathiyah, Moderasi

The Republic of Korea has shown a strong political will to develop its anti-corruption capacities. Research argues that corruption has been - and still is - an issue for the Korean political system before and after its democratization. Even after substantial legal developments in the anti-corruption field, trust in state institutions and actors has not improved much. The Korean parliament decided in 2019 on the creation of a permanent Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials (CIO) in hopes of eradicating corruption. The CIO is an independent institution in charge of investigating and indicting cases of corruption committed by high-level officials, with a special focus on law professionals. After many controversies and some revisions, it started operating in January 2021. In the context of studying the role and development of anti-corruption laws in the world, research on anti-corruption institutions can contribute to our understanding of corruption in context. In this article, the creation of anti-corruption agencies is seen as part of state legitimacy building process. How is the CIO, which aims to reduce corruption, contributing to state legitimacy? Looking at performance and process-based legitimacy, the article centers its analysis on the first version of the CIO and argues that the institution provides new anti-corruption ‘services’ on one side and strengthens state accountability mechanisms on the other. First, institutional analysis shows that new capacities are added to the state-led anti-corruption activity field, mainly limited investigation, and indictment rights. Second, context analysis focusing on corruption scandals involving law professionals argues that the government builds process legitimacy by being responsive to public criticism and pushing for the creation of the CIO.

The study examined diaspora remittances and the development of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Benin-City. The objective of the study is to establish the impacts of diaspora remittances on the development of SMEs in Benin- City. The survey approach involved an online study. The major sources of data used were primary and secondary data. The primary data were elicited through the use of an online questionnaire. The data were analyzed and presented using a statistical technique such as tables and percentages. The secondary data adopted a longitudinal research design covering the period 1991-2018, which is readily available in World Bank data. The technique adopted is multiple regressions to test the hypothesis. E-view econometric software 8.0 was used for the analysis. The result revealed that in the long run, migrant remittance (MRI) and exchange rate (EXCR) which is a supporting variable have a positive and significant impact on the development of small and medium enterprises (DSMEs) in Nigeria. The result also revealed that most diaspora remittances are on consumption. Based on the above findings, it was recommended that the government should develop a policy framework that will harness the effort of diaspora toward the development of the economy of the state, and Edo state government should collaborate with agencies in charge of remittances to remove all encumbrances to remittances to encourage the diaspora to improve on their remittances.
