Value Concern of Ecological Rationality and Exploration of the Chinese Path to Modernization

The COVID-19 pandemic has raged around the world over the recent years, raising the global community's awareness of the interconnection of human civilizations and urging the reconsideration of the human-nature relationship. The escalating worldwide ecological crises are putting human survival and development at risk. The phenomenon has aroused the awareness of "ecological rationality,” consciousness of "economic value” and appeal for "ecological justice” in the universal sense. The endeavor of promoting ecological civilization has been included as part of the five-sphere integrated plan for building socialism with Chinese characteristics since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC). General Secretary Xi Jinping's thought on ecological civilization has fully manifested the value and goal of comprehensively promoting ecological civilization and adhering to the Chinese path to modernization. The Chinese path to modernization, which has reflected on and outclassed the Western-style logic for modernization, shows a unique horizon and independent wisdom. Focusing on addressing the uncertainties facing human survival in the New Era and aiming at embracing the future, the Chinese path to modernization has shifted the mindset from economic rationality to ecological rationality, abandoned anthropocentrism, and firmly upheld and fulfilled the code of conduct for rational "economic man.” The endeavor of building an eco-friendly society and an ecological community has showcased the favorable institutional practice in Chinese modernization and China's wisdom, demonstrated rational planning, prudential design and effective implementation for the prospect of mankind and highlighted a progressive trend in human civilization. © 2022 Brill Academic Publishers.

Time series prediction of the COVID-19 outbreak in India using LSTM based deep learning models

The epidemic caused by COVID-19 presents a significant risk to the continuation of human civilisation and has already done irreparable damage to society. In this paper, forecasting of Coronavirus outbreak in India is performed by LSTM and CovnLSTM deep neural network techniques. COVID-19 data of confirmed cases of India is used. It was taken from John Hopkins University. The loss rate of ConvLSTM is lower than LSTM and RMSE of ConvLSTM is lower than LSTM. For training Covn-LSTM shows 0.069% and testing ConvLSTM shows 0.32% improvement over LSTM model. Therefore, ConvLSTM outperformed over LSTM model. Further wise selection of hyper-parameters could increase the accuracy of the models. © 2023 IEEE.

Psychological Impact of E-Learning among Students: A Survey

Aim: This study is conducted to know the psychological impact of e learning among the students. Background(s): From the time of very first beginning of civilization to modern days before corona pandemic situation, most of the students of India are very much used to with the offline mode of learning. But now the situation is changed totally. They are getting themselves adapted to the online mode of learning as per need of time. In this changed scenario they are totally disconnected from their usual life with frames schools teachers and society. This situation wreaks havoc to their psychology. Methodology: This study is conducted with primary data in form of online survey. It was conducted with a pre formed questionnaire. 428 responses were collected for the present study. With advanced Excel software statistical analysis done. Outcome(s): Results show that students have shown negative impression on online learning and still they are not ready totally psychologically. Still positive answers show neck to neck result, which signifies increasing interest towards e learning. More practices and awareness required before further implementation.Copyright © 2020 Ubiquity Press. All rights reserved.

After the End of the World: How to Orient Yourself in Thinking and in Life from Now On?

If the Covid-19 pandemic sets the tone for our present condition, it is "only” the last revelator of the failure of modern civilization. The "developed” world is facing, in particular, an unprecedented regressive turn: the profound political, ethical, and civilizational setback that we are seeing and living;the destruction of the human in us. From within this civilizational bankruptcy, this essay strives to project an answer to the question (Beckettian question par excellence): How to continue? How can we orient ourselves in thinking and in life from now on, after the ruin of faith in man, postulated by humanisms? A good guide: the correspondence between Freud and Einstein, Why war? This outlines an anamnesis of the assumptions of all humanism. The human constitutively carries within himself "something” that exceeds him and that, as such, is not human. This excess is inescapable;rather, it requires a "work,” the "work of culture, Kulturarbeit,” a "care,” and a "cure” (the cura sui). Outlining a turnaround movement (retournement) from the bankruptcy of modernity, Freud thus opens the way for what really concerns us: a thought of after-humanism. It is here that we find Lacan's seminar on the "Ethics of Psychoanalysis,” built around the figure of Antigone—one that does not give up on his desire, which is faithful to unconditional desire. Civil disobedience. Tragic conception of ethics. This essay makes, by the way, some observations on the state delinquency that is devastating Brazil today. And it leaves a question: How to explain, in a Republic, the unbelievable impunity of a notorious genocide and ecocide placed at the top of the state, openly involved with organized crime? What to conclude from this banality of evil? And the lack of consequent indignation of the so-called progressive forces? This attests to the structural lack, in that "psychic apparatus” called "Brazilian civilization,” of a true "work of culture.” This lack goes perfectly hand in hand with the obscurantist propensity of global neoliberalism in crisis. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2021.

Digital Classics

Today we find a large audience for Classical Studies online: from podcasts and Twitter feeds to informal reading groups and virtual performance of plays, there is an appetite for information on the ancient world that is often filled by professionals and semi-professionals who move between spheres of conventional training and the enthusiasts' realm (e.g., Reddit). There are still important steps to be made in the curation of texts, the collection of images and archaeological artifacts, the construction of classroom space, the exploration of performance, and the creation of virtual environments. A good example of this is the Ancient Lives project, which followed earlier institutional initiatives like the Advanced Papyrological Information System (APIS) to transcribe and edit papyri.9 It creates a massive and searchable database on the foundation of distributed authorship and distributed institutional cost for storage and bandwidth. Mapping and the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) data have been at the forefront of providing new frameworks

The role of the Italic community as a new agent of glocal development in the post-pandemic era

The pandemic and the digital revolution are changing the global geopolitical landscape. The dispersion of power linked to the new digital decision-making centers is accompanied by a fragmentation of the traditional system of power in the international geopolitical arena. In this scenario, it is difficult to identify who is in charge of sovereignty and governance. A glocal perspective would suggest continuing to look at States, but also at local political entities, such as cities, and super-national cultural identities, such as global civilizations. It is a solution that could allow Italy, and other countries, to avoid what John Agnew called the territorial trap that would push the world system into giving national answers to the growing number of global challenges. In the post-pandemic phase, Italy will face its most important test of resilience since the Second World War. This paper intends to investigate whether and in what terms the Italian State will be able to recognize and make use of the soft power of the Italic community and civilization as a new agent of glocal development. The digital revolution accelerated by the pandemic could in fact transform the digital space into the ideal place for the recognition and strengthening of the global network of Italics around the world. Italic is not simply a synonym for Italian. Italic is someone who appreciates and recognizes the charm of Italy. The Italic does not necessarily have a passport or an Italian bloodline;he can live in Italy or anywhere else. The way of life and the commonality of values is the glue that unites Italics and this can become a soft power of Italy, strengthening the Italian State internally and externally. We refer to that mix of culture, taste, style, quality craftsmanship, fashion, design, high-value manufacturing, electronics, robotics, avant-garde entrepreneurship and gastronomic excellence that gives life to a refined art of living well.

RUSSIAN SOCIETY'S RESPONSES TO THE SOCIAL CHALLENGES OF THE PANDEMIC

The purpose of the article is to determine the national characteristics of overcoming the social consequences of the pandemic in the Russian society. The planetary spread of the COVID-19 virus, which takes place regardless of state national borders, has highlighted the strengths and weaknesses of world integration on a global scale and, at the same time, has shown the reserves of a national solution to economic, political and cultural problems in a pandemic situation. The author proposes the author's solution to the problem of Russia's place in the world civilizational process, determines the specifics of the country's civilizational development, which determines decision-making in the management of social processes, using civilizational approach, historical and comparative methods. The result of the study is the substantiation of the position on the crisis of the globalization project, the signs of which are the inability of the world community to ensure intercultural interaction and consolidate in solving the problem of the pandemic, as well as the refusal to recognize Russian achievements in the fight against the virus. It was concluded that only national-state localization and tough government decisions can have positive consequences in an extreme situation. The practical value of the results of scientific research lies in the possibility of using the conclusions that we justified to assess the social situation and develop specific political and economic measures to overcome the negative social consequences of the pandemic in Russian society, to organize tolerant intercultural communication in the world community. © 2022, Journal of Community Positive Practices.

Surviving is not enough: Civilization and the new/same discontents

In a thematic approach to Civilization and the new discontents, the author, instead of dealing with the new, discusses the topic based on the invariance existing in the current scenario around us. Although it may be impossible to forget that the plague brought serious and diverse consequences, this paper highlights what has not changed, the caesura as a bridge between the pre and post-catastrophic states marked by the pandemic. It is used by the paraphrase that there is much more continuity between the affliction of today and the malaise of which Freud spoke to us in 1930, than Covid-19's impressive cesura would suppose.

The reshaping of the future by the Covid 19 pandemic: an assessment of the impact on population and resources

The WHO declared Covid 19 as a pandemic on the eleventh of March, 2020. This led to individuals, governments, institutions and businesses asking what impact this pandemic would have on the future. What imprint would this outbreak leave on human civilisation? Pandemics can alter the course of history. Pandemics impact people, governments, policies and economies. The pandemic has broken out at a time of significant demographic transition. 2020 was the first year in documented human history where the global population of people over the age of 60 is more than the population of children younger than 5 years of age. The richer countries have high concentrations of aging populations. Historically, pandemics have had significant impacts on cities and urban areas. Public health institutions, garbage collection, sanitation, scientific drainage and hospitals all developed to varying extents in urban responses to epidemics. The covid 19 pandemic has also brought about changes. In 2019, the United Nations reported that there had been a 33 percent increase in the population of migrants across the world. The international migrant population was put at 270 million. The previous forecast was for this population level to be attained in 2050. But the pandemic has slowed the growth of migration. The impact of the pandemic on energy markets was immediate and cataclysmic. Large parts of the global economy were forced to close down. The demand for petroleum fell by 25 percent in the United States. The demand for public transport fell by 70 percent in San Francisco, 60 percent in London and 80 percent in Italy and France between March and May 2020. Pandemics and changes in climate are inextricably linked. As humans encroach further into the wild, the United Nations expects more animal viruses to infect and affect humans. 75 percent of all emerging infectious diseases originate in animals. 60 percent of viruses infecting humans come from wildlife and livestock. Zoonotic epidemics are triggered by flooding, climate variability and other extreme weather events linked to climate change. Climate change has also expanded the span of geographies susceptible to zoonoses. Even though this pandemic has brought to the fore these dangers, steps to effectively tackle climate change and to implement practices in agriculture that are more sustainable have halted. The global food system is responsible for fulfilling the nutrition requirements of 80 percent of the world's population. This system has been greatly disturbed by the pandemic. 4 shocks account for this great disturbance: 1. The movement of agricultural goods has been disturbed by restrictions on transport. 2. Supply chains have been seriously damaged by borders being sealed and bans on exports. 3. Overall production has been reduced because of major disruptions in the supply of agricultural raw material, labor and services. 4. Food purchasing power has reduced dramatically because of job losses, especially among the socioeconomically disadvantaged sections of society.Copyright © 2020 Ubiquity Press. All rights reserved.

Impact of Covid-19 in the Society and Culture of Assam and Its Future

The recent Outbreak of the Covid-19 from the Wuhan region of China has brought the critical situation and crisis to human species around the world. The issue of 'Human Security' has brought about the global crisis. It is now under discussion. There are new challenges around the world in the field of disease and treatment. The development of a health sector rather than military power can first protect the citizens of a country or nation. The same has been taught to the People of this generation. Basically, as a biological disaster, the disease has hit the socio-cultural and economic infrastructure of the world. 'Vasant roga' was recognized as a former world outbreak. The overall environment of the Concomitant outbreak after polio, plague, Spanish flu has caused a long-term crisis in the international economy, politics and health. The SARS-CoV-2 or the COVID-19 that affect more than 195 countries around the world at the same time are also challenges the scientific development of the world's advanced capitalist countries. The overall contribution of education technology and the discovery have been questioned. Out of the 195 countries around the world 84 countries have to be on the lock down. This is the first time in human civilization that so many countries are under lockdown. In this terrible situation every nation is moving towards economic slowdown. International communication, imports and exports have been stopped. There is a terrible danger to every government, private sector associated with labour and farmer class as well as the other professions. How will the future of a developing nation like India and a developing state like Assam be in this situation? How will this affect the society, literature and culture of Assam? The proposed issue is being researched for an academic discussion on the same.Copyright © 2020 Ubiquity Press. All rights reserved.

Exploring the Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Algeria's Energy Used and Climate Change Based on Olduvai Theory

The death of industrial civilization explains how the contemporary ecological crisis within industrial society is caused by the values inherent in unlimited economic growth and competitive materialism. It demonstrates the central role and importance of electricity, and what policy makers need to do in order to ensure that current and future systems remain reliable even as they are transformed by the rise of clean energy technologies. The novel COVID-19 pandemic has created an unprecedented global health and economic crisis. The result of such a scenario is that energy demand contracts by 6%, the largest in 70 years in percentage terms and the largest ever in absolute terms. The impact of COVID-19 on energy demand in 2020 would be more than seven times larger than the impact of the 2008 financial crisis on global energy demand, and this is what the Olduvai theory defined by e=energy production/population. It states that the life expectancy of industrial civilization is less than or equal to 100 years. © 2022, IGI Global.

Multivariate Pharma Technology Transfer Analysis: Civilization Diseases and COVID-19 Perspective.

The importance of studying civilization diseases manifests itself in the impact of changing lifestyles, on the number of deaths and causes of death. Technology transfer plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of these diseases. Through this, it is possible to transfer new treatments and diagnostics to clinics and hospitals more quickly and effectively, which leads to better healthcare for patients. Technology transfer can also aid in the development of new drugs and therapies that can be effective in the treatment of civilization diseases. The paper aims to evaluate the technology transfer process in the field of civilization diseases, using COVID-19 as an example of a pandemic that requires quick development and transfer of technology. To achieve the assumed goal, we propose a multivariate synthetic ratio in the field of civilization diseases (SMTT-Synthetic Measure of Technology Transfer) to analyze data from the Global Data database. We used sub-measures like SMTT_value (Synthetic Measure of Technology Transfer_value) and SMTT_quantity (Synthetic Measure of Technology Transfer_quantity) to measure technology transfer and put the data into a graph. Our analysis focuses on 14 diseases over a period of 10 years (2012-2021) and includes nine forms of technology transfer, allowing us to create a tool for analysing the process in multiple dimensions. Our results show that COVID-19 is similar in terms of technology transfer to diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, and breast cancer, even though data for COVID-19 is available for only 2 years.

An Effect of Job Stress and Job Satisfaction on Online Teaching among Cbsc School Teachers during Covid-19 Pandemic

Education is the process through which a mature human mind evolves from a child's mind. Education is a means for disseminating information about both known and unfamiliar topics. It will enable the human brain to comprehend known and unfamiliar concepts in greater depth. As days pass, so do educational methods, which shift according to the needs of the hour. As a result of the COVID-19 crisis, all educational institutions have moved to virtual courses and an online education system that is separate from the actual surroundings. The Indian education system is not new to technological growth, but being exposed to it frequently and adapting to the current condition could make educators vulnerable. Before any changes take place, transition space is required to adapt and become accustomed to the new circumstances. However, the pandemic condition provided enough time for the shift to adapt to the technological civilization. This has a greater effect on online instructors. This study examines how the severity of the influence on education professionals who teach online impacts their psychological well-being, as well as solutions for dealing with the technological culture and psychological well-being. This essay explores the implications of job stress and job satisfaction in the context of the covid-19 pandemic, with an emphasis on CBSC school teachers. Copyright © 2023 Authors.

Avatars Meet Face-to-Face: Learning Leadership Online--A Thematic Analysis of East-African Perspectives

Within education, the online forum is becoming a preferred mode of study across the globe and the COVID-19 era highlights its importance. Research around online education has concentrated on the USA and Europe, and this study sought to redress the Western bias by exploring and comparing the perceptions of six post-graduate East-African students and lecturers at Pan Africa Christian University in Kenya on learning leadership online versus on-campus. It is debatable whether leaders are born or made, however, post-industrial theories embrace the concept that leadership is teachable. Semi-structured interviews were conducted, recorded, transcribed and thematically analysed, using a top-down approach, from a critical realist perspective. The results show that participants' leadership ideals synthesised Afrocentric perspectives of communality, with Western ideals of transformational and servant leadership. Furthermore, there are differences between perceptions of East-African students and lecturers on online leadership learning. Students preferred the online avatar experience, whilst lecturers preferred on-campus or blended methods of leadership studies. Face-to-face connection was deemed important by students and lecturers but impeded by the inability to see facial reactions using the current online platform. This exploratory study gives insight into an East-African experience and sends a clear message to Kenyan institutions to invest further in video technology. Future research could include a longitudinal study of destinations and successes of Kenyan University online leadership alumni. The impact of the global coronavirus pandemic, with lockdowns and social distancing, further underlines the importance of ongoing online leadership research and education across the world.

Commentary: Features of a Post-Corona World

The time of the current Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic will become one of the key moments and a major factor that divides and characterizes epochs of history. The post-Coronavirus world will be very different than before, or you could say that it will be markedly distinct from it in structure and features. In this sense, the Coronavirus moment resembles—or almost resembles—other major moments in the past, which became reference points from a historical perspective. Accordingly, it is similar to developments such as the Fall of the Roman Empire;the launching of the religious reform movement and the religious wars that ensued;the rise of the capitalist order and its expansion around the world;the French and Bolshevik revolutions;the two World Wars, the collapse of the Soviet Union and the Socialist Bloc;and finally the birth of globalization.

INTERDEPENDÊNCIAS E CIVILIZAÇÃO EM TEMPOS DE COV ID-19 1

Em março de 2020 a Organização Mundial da Saúde decretou estado de pandemia por SARS-Cov-2, o que exigiu importantes medidas médicas e sanitarias, bem como posicionamentos e ações políticas com consequências agudas por parte de todos os países atingidos. Johan Goudsblom aborda as epidemias de lepra, peste, sífilis e cólera, discutindo possíveis transformações civilizatórias. Seguindo na mesma linha do autor e adicionando discussões centradas nos conceitos eliasianos de figuração, interdependência, identidade-eu e identidade-nós, esse ensaio traz algumas reflexoes, elaboradas ainda no calor dos acontecimentos, a respeito da sociedade brasileira.Alternate :In March 2020 the World Health Organization declared a state of pandemic by SARS-Cov-2, which required important medical and health measures as well as political stances and actions with acute consequences on the part of all affected countries. Johan Goudsblom addresses the epidemics of leprosy, plague, syphilis, and cholera, discussing possible civilizational changes. Following the same line and adding discussions centered on the Eliasian concepts of figuration, interdependence, I-identity and We-identity, this essay brings some reflections, still elaborated in the heat of the events, concerning Brazilian society.

A Multiform YouTube Homeric Rhapsody from 2020

Odiseja okoli sveta je bila skupno javno branje Homerjeve Odiseje, objavljeno na portalu YouTube decembra 2020, na vrhuncu pandemije COVID-19. Branje, ki je izhajalo iz širše pobude Reading Greek Tragedy Online in ga je organiziral Center za helenske študije Univerze Harvard, je vključevalo uprizoritve vsake knjige Odiseje s strani študentov, profesorjev, igralcev in laikov iz približno dvajsetih držav. Sodelujoče so spodbujali, da so nastopali v svojem jeziku, lahko pa so uporabljali tudi staro grščino ali kateri koli drug jezik;besedilo so lahko bodisi brali, recitirali, peli ali igrali. Rezultat, ki je še vedno na voljo na spletu, je na kratko opisan v članku. Ko razmišljam o tem dogodku, opažam, da so javna branja in YouTube videi kot žanri in kulturne dejavnosti le redko vključeni v raziskave homerske recepcije. Dogodek Odiseja okrogsveta odlikuje izrazita raznolikost;na ta način se povezuje z aktualnimi razpravami o »klasičnih vedah« kot akademski disciplini in s teorijo multiformnega, diahronega razvoja homerskih pesnitev. Dogodek obenem pokaže tako na prednosti kot na omejitve tehnologije in, kar je najpomembnejše, osvešča nas o razdalji med homerskimi pesmimi kot uprizoritvijo v stari Grčiji in danes prevladujočim načinom, ko jih obravnavamo kot čtivo.Alternate :The Odyssey 'Round the World was a collaborative public reading of Homer's Odyssey published on YouTube in December 2020, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Comingfrom the larger Reading Greek Tragedy Online initiative and organized by the Harvard University Center for Hellenic Studies, the reading featured performances of every book of the Odyssey by students, faculty, actors and laypersons from about twenty countries. The contributors were encouraged to perform in their own language, but they could also use the Ancient Greek, or any other language;the text could have been read, recited, sung, acted. The result, still available online, is briefly described here. Reflecting on the event I notice that public readings and YouTube videos are, as genres and cultural activities, rarely included in surveys of Homeric reception. The Odyssey 'Round the World event is distinguished by its prominent diversity;in this way, the event connects with current debates on "Classics " as an academic discipline and with the theory of multiform, diachronic development of Homeric poems. The event also demonstrates both advantages and limits of the technology, and, most importantly, it makes us aware of the distance between Homeric poems as performance in ancient Greece and the usual way we deal with them as our reading matter.
