The article examines the origin of corruption as a social and economic phenomenon that is persistent in society. The purpose of the study is to identify the causes of corruption and the economic factors that influence it. It is revealed that corruption existed in all epochs of human society and in all countries of the world, regardless of their level of economic development and political structure. It is concluded that corruption, as a common phenomenon, comes from the usual human desire to obtain privileges in society, but with the use of illegal methods. It is revealed that in addition to cases of corruption, the desire to obtain a privileged position is also observed in cases where economic entities use an anti-competitive model of conduct in relations with other market participants. This led to a conclusion about the mutually overwhelming influence of competition and corruption on each other — the more competition is developed in a country, the lower the level of corruption in it. In this paper, using econometric methods, a correlation analysis of the relationship between competition and corruption in 140 countries of the world is carried out. The results obtained suggest that increasing the level of competition in the economy will reduce the scale of corruption in the country.

IntroductionWith the process of globalisation in full flow, the movement of people and products across the globe has brought a series of difficulties. With migration the socio-economic status of the individuals may change with the likelihood that this status will be lower rather than higher, although depending upon the reasons for migration this may change too.ObjectivesLiterature shows that low socio-economic status is associated with a higher level of psychiatric morbidity.AimsWhether migration acts as a mediator needs to be investigated further.MethodsVarious studies have shown that rates of psychosis are elevated in migrants though these rates are differentially increased in different groups indicating that factors other than migration may be at play.ResultsIn this presentation the literature and link the acculturation and cultural identity with post-migration experiences will be reviewed.ConclusionA link exists between the perceptions within cultures and level of economic development of what constitutes mental health. The state of advancement of mental health services of a country will certainly have a large impact on prevalence rates. Further investigation should be carried out to examine in greater depth the relationship between social inequality and disorder prevalence, as distinct from income inequality.

Human Education

ABSTRAK Pendidikan merupakan suatu kegiatan yang universal dalam kehidupan manusia. Di manapun di dunia ini terdapat masyarakat manusia, dan di sana pula terjadi pendidikan. Walaupun pendidikan merupakan gejala umum dalam kehidupan masyarakat, namun perbedaan pandangan hidup, perbedaan falsafah hidup yang dianut oleh masing-masing bangsa atau masyarakat menyebabkan adanya perbedaan penyelenggaraan termasuk perbedaan tujuan pendidikan yang ingin dicapai oleh suatu bangsa atau masyarakat. Kegiatan pendidikan tidak dapat dilepaskan dari yang hendak dicapainya. Bagi manusia pendidikan merupakan suatu keharusan, karena manusia lahir dalam keadaan tidak berdaya, ia sangat membutuhkan bantuan dan bimbingan orang lain untuk dapat berdiri sendiri. Di samping itu manusia lahir tidak langsung dewasa yang mengidentifikasikan manusia dengan moral yang berlaku, dan manusia yang bertanggung jawab, manusia yang sanggup mempertanggungjawabkan segala konsekuensi dan perbuatannya. Oleh karena itu, perbuatan mendidik merupakan perbuatan yang mempunyai tujuan, ada suatu yang ingin dicapai dengan perbuatan tersebut. Orang tua menyuruh anaknya melaksanakan shalat lima waktu, melatih anaknya melaksanakan saum pada bulan ramadhan, melarang anaknya kencing di sembarang tempat dan sambil berdiri, menyekolahkan anaknya dan lain-lain, semuanya itu memiliki maksud dan tujuan yang ingin dicapai, khususnya bagi anaknya. Kata Kunci: Pendidik, Terdidik ABSTRACT Education is a universal activity in human life. Everywhere in the world there is human society, and there is also education. Although education is a common phenomenon in the life of the community, the differences in life views, differences in the philosophy of life adopted by individual nations or societies lead to different organizational differences, including differences in educational goals to be achieved by a nation or society. Educational activities cannot be separated from what they want to achieve. For human education is a must, because humans are born in a state of helpless, he urgently needs the help and guidance of others to be able to stand on their own. In addition man is born indirectly mature which identifies man with the prevailing morals, and responsible man, man who is able to account for all consequences and actions. Therefore, the act of educating is a purposeful act, there is something to be achieved with the action. Parents asked their children to perform the five daily prayers, to train their children to carry out fasting in Ramadan month, to forbid their children to urinate in any place and to stand up, send their children to school and others, all of which have a purpose and goal to be achieved, especially for their children. Keywords: Educator, Educated

The Relationship

The relationship between the global and the local is one of critical importance to all regions of the world. In the resolution of the tension between the irresistible surge of globalisation and the undeniable facts of society as it actually exists in the various localities which together comprise the very world which is presumably the object or the subject-matter of globalisation, law lies at the forefront. It is, one might say, the very intellectual battlefield which we have selected for the resolution of the major problem facing human society at the turn of the century. The purpose of this article is therefore to investigate, in a somewhat narrative fashion the relationship between the global and the local in the context of law in South East Asia. The topic is clearly too large to be dealt with in a short space with the rigour and articulation it really deserves, but it is hoped that the approach adopted will provide some kind of a frame of reference for regarding, studying, and hopefully improving, the law in the South East Asian region; and will perhaps focus a pencil of light on the problems of the global and the local in this particular regional context.

Status Differences

The dead, collectively or individually, are sometimes powerful forces in human society. At other times they fade into relative insignificance. How archaeologists recover such ideological changes has repercussions for their interpretation of social organization and social change. Interpretations of status, gender, and ranking from funerary deposits are to a large extent dependent on archaeologists' abilities to interpret initially the relationship that the living construct with the dead. This contextual analysis of the Danish Iron Age uses studies of landscape and topography, and contrasts in material culture to situate the changing placement of the dead in society. Their increasing incorporation into the world of the living in the pre-Roman Iron Age indicates a growing concern with lineage and individual status. Later on, within the hierarchical ordering of Roman Iron Age society, the dead retained their significance for the living but in certain regions this was expressed in terms of their communality rather than status differences.

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in Chinese; abstract in English only.This paper addresses the relationship between politics and ethics from the perspective of the Confucian culture of harmony and argues that it is untenable to ignore the supporting role of Chinese ethical values by attributing China’s achievements in fighting the epidemic to merely the capacities of governance. What the world might learn from China in combating COVID-19 is not only the so-called “national capacity,” nor the theme of trust, but also some deeper moral insights, such as how to cultivate a sense of mutual responsibility in people and regions around the world. These insights have proven to be important ethical resources that human society urgently needs in the post-epidemic era.DOWNLOAD HISTORY | This article has been downloaded 5 times in Digital Commons before migrating into this platform.

Pilgrimage as Moral and Aesthetic Formation in Augustine’s Thought

The Way

Augustine’s dominant image for the human life is peregrinatio, which signifies at once a journey to the homeland—a pilgrimage—and the condition of exile from the homeland. For Augustine, all human beings are, in the earthly life, exiles from their true homeland: heaven. Only some become pilgrims seeking a way back to the heavenly homeland, a return mediated by the incarnate Christ. Becoming a pilgrim begins with attraction to beauty. The return journey therefore involves formation, both moral and aesthetic, in loving rightly. This image has occasioned a lot of angst in ethical thought in the last century or so. Augustine’s vision of Christian life as a pilgrimage, his critics allege, casts a pall of groaning and longing over this life in favor of happiness in the next. Augustine’s eschatological orientation robs the world of beauty and ethics of urgency. In this book, Stewart-Kroeker sets out to elaborate Augustine’s understanding of moral and aesthetic formation via the pilgrimage image, which she argues reflects a Christological continuity between the earthly journey and the eschatological home that unites love of God and neighbor. From the human desire for beauty to the embodied practice of Christian sacraments, Stewart-Kroeker reveals the integrity of Augustine’s vision of moral and aesthetic formation, which is essentially the ordering of love. Along the way, Stewart-Kroeker develops an Augustinian account of the relationship between beauty and morality.

The most dangerous tendency of the present human generation is to enjoy every aspect of life selfishly which leads to serious threat to an environment. From the very beginning man was never a solitary creature in the planet where the relationship between humans and nature is one of the most fundamental issues we face and must deal with today. A universal holistic approach is needed, which may develop ecological consciousness among us. Many religions, scriptures can help to build a model of ecological consciousness. The importance of ancient Indian religious practices shows that human beings are an integral part of nature, and should, therefore, naturally understand the framework of life. At present human society is misled by the false attraction of the materialistic life, so to realize his true ‘self ,‘ one has to get out of this false notion that human society is the only proprietor of the world. The ‘Bhagavad-Gita’ nicely describes detachment from materials activities to the transcendental activities with realizing our true ‘self.’ Warwick Fox and Arne Naess’s ‘Self Realization’ shows how a person who Is self-realized and well-identified with the non-human world, will behave in harmony with nature, acting from inclination rather than duty.

A partir de la relación entre cosmovisión y etnoteorías parentales y su expresión en prácticas de crianza infantil me he aproximado a la construcción de la persona en los primeros años de vida entre los mayas de Yucatán. Centro este trabajo en la ceremonia de hetsmek’, ya que sugiero puede verse como expresión del papel que juegan las entidades anímicas y la agencia humana en las etnoteorías parentales, al tomar en cuenta la conformación de los niños. Los padres, apoyados en los padrinos, contribuyen simbólicamente a abrirle el camino al infante para que desarrolle las capacidades que definirán su entendimiento. En conjunto evocan las que caracterizan a los seres de maíz en el génesis maya. En particular, la responsabilidad y la adquisición de conciencia se relacionan con ik’, atributo que permite al individuo relacionarse con el mundo al igual que ool y cuyos significados múltiples y relaciones requieren mayor investigación para entender la construcción de la persona entre los mayas de Yucatán.     ABSTRACT I approach the cultural construction of the idea of person in the first years of life among the Yucatec Maya through the relationship between parental ethnotheories and worldview. I focus in the hetsmek’ ceremony and suggest that it may be seen as the expression in parental ethnotheories of the role played by souls and human society in the formation of children. Parents and godparents symbolically contribute to open the infant’s road in order to develop the abilities that will define the concept of understanding. These evoke the characteristics of human beings modeled from corn as described in the Maya genesis. Among them, responsibility and awareness relate toik’. Together with ool, they refer to the attributes that allow the individual to engage in the world and which require further investigation into their multiple meanings and relations if we are to better understand the construction of the person among the Maya of Yucatan.

A technique is proposed for studying differences in population incomes of the countries of the world on the basis of the module (M) in the article. Its use made it possible to detail inequality in population incomes of countries associated with differences in the level of economic development of countries and with the influence of internal social and economic factors. The calculation of the coefficients characterizing the influence of factors on the basis of not intergroup dispersions, but average of intragroup ones is proposed.
