Os painéis de madeira estão consolidando posições de destaque no setor florestal e na economia brasileira, em decorrência do grande crescimento da produção na última década. Os principais motivos desse crescimento foram a instalação de novas unidades produtoras, a busca de novas tecnologias e a modernização do pátio industrial. Conseqüentemente, no ano de 2000, o Brasil alcançou a 10a posição de maior produtor mundial e também a 10a posição de maior exportador mundial. É evidente que no período em análise (1960-2000), os fatores referentes à demanda internacional tiveram um papel importante sobre as exportações brasileiras de painéis de madeira. Os resultados empíricos mostram que as exportações brasileiras de painéis de madeira não são sensíveis ao preço, que as exportações brasileiras de painéis de fibra, painéis de partícula e laminados são complementares às exportações mundiais e que segundo a renda mundial, o compensado brasileiro, indica ser um bem superior, e os demais painéis bens normais. DEMAND FOR BRAZILIAN WOOD-BASED PANELS EXPORTS Abstract The wood-based panels are consolidating an important position in the Brazilian forest sector and economy, due to its industry growth in the last decade. The main reasons for its growth are the installation of new industrial unities, the search for new technologies, and the industrial modernization. Consequently, in the year 2000, Brazil has reach the 10th position of main world producer and also the 10th position of main world exporter. In the studied period (1960-2000), the international demand had an important role over the Brazilian wood-based panels exports. The empirical results show that the Brazilian wood-based panels are not sensitive to price, that the Brazilian exports of particleboard, fibreboard, and veneers are complementary to the world exports, and that, based in the world revenue, the Brazilian plywood is a superior good and that the other pnels are normal goods.

New technologies and so-called communication and information technologies are transforming our society, the way in which we relate to each other, and the way we understand the world. By a wider extension, they are also influencing the world of law. That is why technologies will have a huge impact on society in the coming years and will bring new challenges and legal challenges to the legal sector worldwide. On the other hand, the new communications era also brings many new legal issues such as those derived from e-commerce and payment services, intellectual property, or the problems derived from the use of new technologies by young people. This will undoubtedly affect the development, evolution, and understanding of law. This Special Issue has become this window into the new challenges of law in relation to new technologies.

The labyrinth in literature: From Baroque to Postmodernism The labyrinth has proved to be an essential symbol of postmodernist literature and the philosophy of our time. This symbol has apparently had the power to bridge the centuries between Ancient Greece and the year 2000. In reality the labyrinth as a geometrical figure has acquired various meanings in the course of time. The history of the labyrinth as symbol shows that the constant elements are as essential as the changes in meaning from the Middle Ages until the present day. Two of the new symbolic elements that accompany the labyrinth on its way through various cultural periods are the garden and the path of life. During the Baroque the labyrinth, for example, represented the synthesis of garden, path and maze. At the end of the twentieth century the labyrinth once more becomes a dominant and significant structure. The labyrinth reflects the inability and perhaps impossibility to find the key to the centre of the world and to discover the truth behind the words we use. On the other hand, the labyrinth suggests that the search for meaning and truth is an aim in itself or even that this search can lead to new forms of wisdom. The labyrinth therefore is an ambivalent and fascinating symbol of our time. Dedalus and Ariadne, however, have not yet brought the salvation we are waiting for.

The digital economy allows to compose the new business models, digital platforms and services, which create new types of economic activity, as well as the transformation of traditional industries. Due to the industries transformation to the digital economy there is the transformation of the world economy, or rather the economy itself is being digitized The purpose of the paper is to reveal the essence and features of the digital economy formation and to consider what significant transformations will take place in the world by the analysis of major trends in the near future. Accumulating all the concepts, we can say that the digital economy is the rather complex term, but we can assume that its development is based on the key components According to forecast estimates, the most advanced retail companies will begin implementing the service of virtual and voice search of goods by 2022. This will require from the company the better understanding of the consumers wishes, their interests and intentions. Consider the main technological development trends for 2020-2025 based on the data of the major consulting agencies and the consulting company "Cartner" Figure 2 shows the forecast curve of the new technologies development. Innovative development triggers that will actively influence the technology development include the following: the Authenticated Provenance, Low-Cost Single Board Computers at the Edge, Self-Supervised Learning, BMI (Brain Machine Interface), active development of "Packaged Business Capabilities" services, Digital Twin of the Person and Composible Enterprises. The peak of disappointments will be Social Distancing Technologies and Secure Access Service. The source of expectations will be the development of Carbon-Based transistors technology and Human digital Ontologies. The formation of a productivity platform will be based on trends in Self-Development and Self-Education. Digital IT trends grow, evolve and acquire new properties of social technologies that can influence the structure of the community, form dependencies and demand. Therefore, companies, large corporations and government need to move to more flexible composite business architectures. The modular business model is based on four basic principles: modularity, efficiency, continuous improvement and adaptive innovation. This business model allows to move from rigid traditional planning to a flexible response to rapidly changing business needs. In general, it creates opportunities for innovative approaches, reduces costs and improves partnerships. It is important to pay attention to the other technologies in the new business model such as bundled business services, data factories, private 5G networks and embedded artificial intelligence. Thus, as a result of the research it is proved that the digital world is a completely new order of life, which requires to change our thinking. The person should be always focused on the new technologies and methods in order the enterprises remain competitive and constantly developed, it will promote the economy development and the growth of well-being of the society. So, taking into account the global trends in technology development, Ukraine has to adapt to the new standards quickly and implement innovative solutions for the economic development. The digitalization of the economy, on the one hand, is the key to economic success, on the other hand, it is the driving force in the conditions of the conceptual understanding of the digital economy essence. The growth of the quality and innovation level of domestic goods and services should provide not only sustainable economic growth, but also competitive advantages with further integration into the EU. At the same time, there is the relevant need of the scientific and technological research, the formation of a certain business ("digital") culture, the implementation of smart city ideas in Ukraine based on the development of local communities and the emergence of new initiatives and proposals for innovative solutions.

The Many

The title of this paper, as proposed by the meeting organisers, implies that Europe is different when it comes to biotechnology. In the early years of the 21st Century, even an impartial observer would agree that Europe differs from most of the rest of the world in its attitudes to at least one biotechnology – Genetically Modified (GM) crops. On the other hand, parts of Europe are seen as relatively enthusiastic about applications of biotechnology in human medicine. Take for instance, the UK's stance on research with human stem cells. Do these differences reflect permanent differences or merely a more cautious approach in Europe to the adoption of biotechnology in food production? Does this matter to pig producers?This paper seeks to give a broad and shallow overview of the opportunities for developments in biotechnology to impact on pig production. It will consider which of the many potential new technologies, if they were available now, might be acceptable in Europe and what might be the consequences of failure to access technologies that others exploit.

The Relationship

With the advent of new technologies, the man begins to experience a significant change in the perception of the other, time and space. The acceleration of time promoted by new technology does not allow the exercise of affection for the consolidation of ties, relations take narcissists hues seeking immediate gratification and the other is understood as a continuation of the self, the pursuit of pleasure. It is the acceleration of time, again, which leads man to present the need for immediate, always looking for the new – not new – in an attempt to fill an inner space that is emptied. The retention of concepts and pre-stressing of temporality are liquefied, become fleeting. We learn to live in the world and the relationship with the other in a frivolous and superficial way. The psychic structure, facing new phenomena experienced, loses temporalize capacity and expand its spatiality, it becomes pathological. Post-modern inability to retain the past, to analyze the information received and reflect, is one of the responsible for the mental illness of today's society. From a temporality range of proper functioning, the relationship processes with you and your peers will have the necessary support to become viable and healthy.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

The Philosophical Dialogue is dedicated to the analysis of the historical development of Russian philosophy over the past half century. The authors investigated the attitude of ideas and people in the conditions of historical turning point in the late 20th and early 21st century. Philosophy in a borderline situation allows us to compare and evaluate the past and the present. On the one hand, archetypes, attitudes, moods and experiences, formed as a reception of the collective experience of the past era, have been preserved in the minds of thinkers of the post-war generation – in the consciousness, and may be in the neural networks of the brain. On the other hand, the new social reality – cognitive capitalism – radically changes the self-description of society. It is not to say that modernity satisfies people. Despite the talk about the production of cultural, social, human capital, they feel not happy, but lonely and defenseless in a rapidly changing world. Not only philosophical criticism, but also the wave of protests, which also engulfed the "welfare society", makes one wonder whether it is worth following the recipes of the modern Western economy. On the one hand, closure poses a threat to stagnation, the fate of the country of the outland outing. On the other hand, openness, and, moreover, the attempt to lead the construction of a networked society is nothing but self-sacrifice. Russia has already been the leader of the World International, aiming to defeat communism around the world. But there was another superpower that developed the potential of capitalism. Their struggle involved similarities, which consisted in the desire for technical conquest of the world. The authors attempted to reflect on the position of a country that would not give up the competition, but used new technologies to live better. To determine the criteria, it is useful to use the historical memory of the older generation to assess modernity. Conversely, get rid of repeating the mistakes of the past in designing a better future.

Agriculture in Indonesia, one of which is food crop agriculture, food crops are dominated by rice and corn products. Indonesia, which was previously known as the most significant food-producing country in the world, is currently experiencing a shift, where Indonesia's rice production has decreased compared to China. The condition of Indonesia's rice and corn production in the world will have an impact on the status of rice and corn in Indonesia, especially in East Java, East Java is a region that has the potential to produce rice and corn compared to the other area in Indonesia, on the other hand, because of Indonesia's demand for rice and corn large enough. The occurrence of COVID 19 has an impact on all aspects of the world and all sectors, one of which is food crops, how the effects of COVID 19 on food crop agriculture in East Java, the results of the study are the behavior of farmers in East Java relatively no difference before the occurrence of COVID 19 and after COVID 19, farmers still work as usual. Rice supply at the level of the farmer community is still sufficient because farmers have harvested a month in March 2020. In Bangkalan Madura the village government has the  policy to carry out the harvest by renting harvest tools to anticipate COVID 19, while in Gresik and Lamongan areas farmers continue to do the harvest without assistance harvester. The role of advisory counselors is needed by farmers, this is because extension agents can become counselors of the COVID 19 problem in the community during a pandemic like this, and this is in line with research (Adawiyah, Sumardjo, and Mulyani 2018) that farmers' facilitators influence the adoption of new technologies. With the COVID 19 outbreak, the brothers of the farmers returned home because of the culture of going back or also because the factories, shops, restaurants where they work have been close, this is a burden for farmers.

De Levendes Land (The Land of the Living).An interpretation By Niels EgebakBy way of introduction this analysis (which has also appeared in a book of readings on the poem) assumes that the cultural and literary complex of problems in which the poem belongs should be looked upon as a text, to which the hymn under consideration bears an intertextual relationship. The biographical and psychological data relevant to the text, on the other hand, only acquire the status of text in the poem “de Levendes Land”; therefore they should be considered in the light of the poem, and not vice versa.The structure of the poem reveals the covert process that opposes it to Kingo’s hymn “Far, Verden, far vel” (a farewell to the world). By making the final stanza appear as the initial stanza in a later version Grundtvig admits its strategic significance. The two main sections of the poem consist of four smaller subtexts with the mutual relationships ABGD, each consisting of three stanzas: A depicts a land beyond time, whereas B dismisses this dream, C: the lost Paradise is regained here and now through the Christian faith, which, although it does not disown human nature, does not deify or idealise it. D: hope, reborn and confirmed in baptism, makes possible the realisation of the dream of Paradise through love emanating from above. E: the last stanza points out what makes this possible: Christianity with its message of love which applies both in heaven and on earth—that is, even “when the eye is blue”.It is asserted that in the poem there is a direct connection between Grundtvig’s settlement with Kingo and his settlement with romanticism. The first main section is a parody on Kingo’s conceptual universe; in the second main section he is taken to task: his attempt to describe blessedness through wordly values is rejected with contempt, whereas the romantic conception of childlike naivete as the way of admission to the lost Paradise is repeated in the text in the prayer to “Kærligheds Aand” (spirit of charity) (st. 7 ), echoing the Christian commandment that »Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein”.The possibility that poetry “med Mund og Pen” (with mouth and pen) might restore the dream of Paradise is rejected: Nothing but a reflection, a likeness will come out of it (st. 5 ). Nevertheless, the poem itself is such a likeness, anticipated already in the poem “Nyaars-Morgen” (New Year’s Morning). Grundtvig must have wished to face the inevitability of death, live through the loss of an eternal life in a wordly sense, and then return without having become an unhappy man.—A comparison with “O Christelighed ’’shows that the word “I” has an important position in the original poem as compared to “we” in the rewritten version.C differs from the other three subtexts in that the textual sequence is reverse to the logical sequence. This inversion has the effect that the entire section 2 may be read as an inversion of section 1, which fact seems to have some bearing on what the text says about the relationship between romanticism and Christianity. The innocence we have lost may be regained through baptism, poetry gains power from a spark of the spirit of God, in Christian hymns the likeness becomes a hope that brings happiness, where the dream brought only grief and distress—this point is elucidated by a comparison of st. 4 and st. 10. In the poem we see a tension between two philosophies of life, romanticism and Christianity, an as yet unsettled struggle between an established ideology (romanticism) and an ideology that is still trying to find its proper course (Grundtvigianism). In the rewritten version “O Christelighed” the Grundtvigian ideology has become established. This, however, did not make Grundtvig a greater poet.
