Abstract. Introduction. The article examines the place of personnel security as a component of the system of economic security at enterprises. The main approaches to the formation of the personnel security system of the enterprise are considered. The role of personnel security in the strategic and operational management of the enterprise is clarified. The algorithm of creation of the personnel security system of the enterprise is outlined. The relationship between personnel security tasks and threats has been established. The main aspects of the personnel security system are identified and their impact on the economic security of the enterprise is analyzed. The scheme of interaction of personnel security of the subject of economic activity with external and internal environment is offered. The main directions of ensuring the personnel security of the enterprise are systematized, namely in the process of selection of candidates for positions, work with the labor collective. The measures that need to be taken to organize this security, taking into account the risks and threats associated with staff, their intellectual potential and employment. Purpose. The purpose of this article is to establish the place of personnel security in the system of economic security to reduce the level and number of threats that weaken the degree of security of the enterprise by staff. Results. We believe that the most difficult part of the security system of enterprises is the person, and it is the human factor that can have a critical impact on the success of the business and the very existence of the business object. Personnel security occupies a leading place in the structure of economic security. It can be defined as the process of preventing potential and real risks associated with personnel, as a set of actions and relationships of personnel, in which the effective economic functioning of the enterprise, its ability to withstand internal and external influences and threats associated with personnel. Conclusions. The category of “personnel security” of the enterprise, its components and areas of support are currently a very complex and insufficiently studied industry. The proposed classification categories do not claim to be complete. In particular, it is necessary to determine the weight of each such component for the economic security of the enterprise. No less interesting is the study of the relationship between the components of personnel security, between personnel and other types of economic security. Given the significant (and possibly decisive) impact of personnel security on the economic functioning of enterprises, it is advisable to continue research in this direction. Keywords: personnel security; stages of personnel security; staffing system; loyalty system.

The purpose of the study is to determine the criteria for segmentation of consumers of housing and communal services and build a model of their needs as a basis for the formation of marketing relationships for the management organization in order to increase the effectiveness of the introduction of smart technologies in the housing and communal services market. The introduction of smart technologies in the sphere of housing and communal services directly depends on the development of the relationship marketing as a technology for coordinating interests of all stakeholders in the market under consideration. In relation to the market of housing and communal services (HCS), the relationship marketing has been studied very little, which is due to the weak development of the categorical and methodological apparatus of the concept itself, as well as the complexity and multidimensionality of the subject-object structure of the housing and communal services market as an object of research. The housing and utilities market is a complex system that includes two clusters: the utility and housing segments which differ in service parameters, market types, and the composition of market entities. The article analyzes key barriers to the introduction of smart technologies in the market of housing and communal services. Besides, the segmentation of consumers is carried out; a model of the hierarchy of needs of consumers of housing and communal services is proposed; the relationship between the needs and the selection of specific smart technologies for managing an apartment building is revealed.

The Relationship

Science, technology and human values have been the subject of enquiry in the last few years for social scientists and eventually the relationship between science and gender is the subject of an ongoing debate. This is due to the event of globalization which led to the exponential growth of new technologies like assisted reproductive technology (ART). ART, one of the most iconic technological innovations of the twentieth century, has become increasingly a normal social fact of life. Since ART invades multiple human discourses—thereby transforming culture, society and politics—it is important what is sociological about ART as well as what is biological. This article argues in commendation of sociology of technology, which is alert to its democratic potential but does not concurrently conceal the historical and continuing role of technology in legitimizing gender discrimination. The article draws the empirical insights from local articulations (i.e., Odisha state in eastern India) for the understandings of motherhood, freedom and choice, reproductive right and rights over the body to which ART has contributed. Sociologically, the article has been supplemented within the broader perspectives of determinism, compatibilism alongside feminism.

AbstractLearning is a complex phenomenon. Contemporary theories of education underline active participation of learners in their learning processes. One of the key arguments supporting this approach is the learner’s simultaneous and unconscious development of their ability of “learning to learn”. This ability belongs to the soft skills highly valued by employers today.For Mathematics Education, it means that teachers have to go beyond making calculations and memorizing formulas. We have to teach the subject in its social context. When the students start understanding the relationship between real-life problems and the role of numbers and formulas for their solutions, their learning becomes a part of their tacit knowledge. Below we explain the theoretical background of our approach and provide examples of such activities.

Tocopherols and tocotrienols are natural compounds of plant origin, available in the nature. They are supplied in various amounts in a diet, mainly from vegetable oils, some oilseeds, and nuts. The main forms in the diet are α- and γ-tocopherol, due to the highest content in food products. Nevertheless, α-tocopherol is the main form of vitamin E with the highest tissue concentration. The α- forms of both tocopherols and tocotrienols are considered as the most metabolically active. Currently, research results indicate also a greater antioxidant potential of tocotrienols than tocopherols. Moreover, the biological role of vitamin E metabolites have received increasing interest. The aim of this review is to update the knowledge of tocopherol and tocotrienol bioactivity, with a particular focus on their bioavailability, distribution, and metabolism determinants in humans. Almost one hundred years after the start of research on α-tocopherol, its biological properties are still under investigation. For several decades, researchers’ interest in the biological importance of other forms of vitamin E has also been growing. Some of the functions, for instance the antioxidant functions of α- and γ-tocopherols, have been confirmed in humans, while others, such as the relationship with metabolic disorders, are still under investigation. Some studies, which analyzed the biological role and mechanisms of tocopherols and tocotrienols over the past few years described new and even unexpected cellular and molecular properties that will be the subject of future research.

IMPORTING TEXTS FROM ABROAD Editors’ reuse of foreign historical texts in Dutch periodicals, 1780-1860 This article explores the ways in which the editors of five Dutch history journals and three magazines for general circulation copied historical texts from abroad, between 1780 and 1860. By comparing original texts with reprinted versions, we show that the editors’ work involved not only ‘passive’ duplication (reprinting in full), but also more active forms of intervention, from the selection of text fragments to their translation, modification or critical review. These varied editorial practices point to a broader creative process through which historical knowledge was tailored to an emerging and nationally-oriented academic audience. Editors here assumed the role of mediators, gatekeepers even in the sense that their judgment determined the very choice of texts. At a time when the study of history was evolving at both the national and international level, and when the relationship between actors making up the disciplinary field was also in flux, editors thus became influential figures.

This article investigates the relationship between the perception of violence and the spending on security goods and services in households. Individual microdata from a random national survey on family budget carried out in Brazil in 2008-2009 were used for modeling the household spending using two instrumental variables. The stability of results was checked by applying the Lasso-Gaussian regularization method in the selection of the statistically significant variables. Positive relationships were found between household spending on security goods and services and (i) the fear of insecurity at the household level, (ii) the neighbors’ spending on security, and (iii) the registered criminality, but no evidence was found on the relationship between the role of police on household spending on security goods and services.

The calls for educational reform that have dominated the professional and lay literature for the past few years have been decidedly silent in discussing the role of special education either as a contributor or a solution to the problems being raised. As an introduction to this “Special Focus” on the relationship between general educational reform and special education, this article summarizes some of the more prominent reports with regard to their treatment (and nontreatment) of special education. The impact of proposed reforms for the conceptualization and operation of special education is the subject of the five articles that follow.

The subject of this study is to explore the role of cardinality of hesitant fuzzy element (HFE) in distance measures on hesitant fuzzy sets (HFSs). Firstly, three parameters, i.e., credibility factor, conservative factor, and a risk factor are introduced, thereafter, a series of novel distance measures on HFSs are proposed using these three parameters. These newly proposed distance measures handle the relationship between the cardinal number and the element values of hesitant fuzzy set well, and are suitable to combine subjective and objective decision-making information. When using these functions, decision makers with different risk preferences are allowed to give different values for these three parameters. In particular, this study transfers the hesitance degree index to a credibility of the values in HFEs, which is consistent with people’s intuition. Finally, the practicability of the newly proposed distance measures is verified by two examples.

The precise role of microglia in stroke and cerebral ischemia has been the subject of debate for a number of years. Microglia are capable of synthesizing numerous soluble and membrane-bound biomolecules, some known to be neuroprotective, some neurotoxic, whereas others have less definitive bioactivities. The molecular mechanisms through which microglia activate these molecules have thus become an important area of ischemia research. Here we provide a survey review that summarizes the key actions of microglial factors in cerebral ischemia including complement proteins, chemokines, pro-inflammatory cytokines, neurotrophic factors, hormones, and proteinases, as well several important messenger molecules that play a part in how these factors respond to extracellular signals during ischemic injuries. We also provide some new perspectives on how microglial intracellular signaling may contribute to the seemingly contradictory roles of several microglial effector molecules.
