THE ROLE OF ARTISTIC DESCRIPTION IN THE EXPRESSION OF CONTENT

The artistic description, with its quality, gives the text a new poetic character and provides an interpretation of the content in the aesthetic structure. The description not only increased the artistic and aesthetic quality of literary works, but also enriched them in terms of language and style. Like many writers who took advantage of the descriptive potential of the Azerbaijani language, which is characteristic of the early twentieth century, Seyid Hussein also created successful poetic figures. Based on his creative style, he formed a unique style of description, and in this regard, managed to create authentic works at the level of figurative literary and artistic language. In Seyid Hussein's stories, the description is multifaceted and has become an expression form of different attitudes, feelings and thoughts. Using description methods, the writer not only narrates the subject, does not draw the external and internal qualities of the images, does not give a poetic picture of place and time. He delivers to the reader the psychological moods of characters, their effects on their situations and actions, feelings and thoughts to the reader in a poetic language. Artistic description played the role of illuminating the dark worlds of the characters in the stories.The artistic description, with its quality, gives the text a new poetic character and provides an interpretation of the content in the aesthetic structure.

Žmogaus teisių apribojimo kultūros paveldui išsaugoti teisinis vertinimas

This article researches the following questions: defining the protectable subject matter as cultural heritage in the International Law, the obligation to protect the cultural heritage and evaluation of the cultural heritage as a Human Rights issue. Additionally, assessment of the Human Rights-based limitations on the preservation of the cultural heritage and legal grounds for the right to destroy and its limits have been discussed. It is defined that, the obligation to protect the cultural heritage is a duty established by the International Law on the states, rather than on the non-state actors. The general approach for the assessment of the Human Rights limitations on cultural heritage protection is expected to be based on the principles of balance of interests and the limited transformation or conditionality.Straipsnyje nagrinėjami šie klausimai: saugotino objekto kaip kultūros paveldo apibrėžimas tarptautinėje teisėje, pareiga saugoti kultūros paveldą ir kultūros paveldo vertinimas kaip žmogaus teisių problema. Be to, aptartas žmogaus teisėmis pagrįstų kultūros paveldo išsaugojimo apribojimų ir teisės sunaikinti teisinių pagrindų bei jos ribų įvertinimas. Apibrėžiama, kad pareiga saugoti kultūros paveldą yra tarptautinės teisės nustatyta pareiga valstybėms, o ne nevalstybinėms organizacijoms. Tikimasi, kad bendras požiūris vertinant žmogaus teisių apribojimus kultūros paveldo apsaugos srityje bus grindžiamas interesų pusiausvyros ir ribotos transformacijos ar sąlygiškumo principais

Successful Organizational Business Communication and its Impact on Business Performance: An Intra- and Inter-Organizational Perspective

Intra-firm communication is critical for building synergy amongst the internal business units of a firm, enabling employees from various functional departments and ranks to incorporate their decision-making, understanding of organizational objectives, and common norms and culture to achieve increased organizational effectiveness. This study builds on and assesses a framework of the causes and consequences of effective communication in business interactions between customer and supplier firms, as well as the path for efficient communication within a firm. The proposed study’s structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis based on 352 responses collected from firm representatives in different job positions, ranging from marketing to logistics operations, revealed that in terms of intra-organizational communication, organization characteristics and shared values, top management support and style of leadership, and information technology were all significantly related to communication effectiveness. Furthermore, the frequency and variety of interactions enhanced communication outcomes, thus improving company performance. The results revealed that cultural factors were significantly related to communication effectiveness, as well as shared beliefs and goals. The organizational factors of leadership style, top management support, and information technology were significant determinants of effective communication. Among the contextual factors, interaction frequency and diversity were found to be significant. The study also tested the relationship between supplier and supplier firm performance in the context of communication effectiveness and found that they were closely related when trust and commitment were built between business partners

An Investigation of Intimidation Strategies in Covid-19 discourse

With the spread of Covid-19 from China worldwide, the virus has been one of the majorly debated issues by journalists, politicians, health authorities and numerous organizations. While discussing Covid-19, Covid-19 discourse, in particular media discourse about Covid-19 creates a dichotomy between the group who is vulnerable to virus exposure and the virus through victimization of the former. Furthermore, discourse about Covid-19 employs various intimidation strategies in the dichotomization of the group and the virus. In order to explain the construal of dichotomous distance between the virus and the group, who is vulnerable to virus exposure and how intimidation strategies participate in the characterization of the virus, we adopted critical discourse analytic approach, proximization theory, which contributes to the understanding of narrowing of distance between peripheral virus entity and the group in the form of home entity through the identification of spatial and temporal lexico-grammatical markers. According to the results, intimidating elements, adopted by media discourse about Covid-19, such as negative metaphorization, modality markers, historical flashbacks, frequent emphasis on preemptive action against Covid-19, characterize the virus intrusion in the form of peripheral entity as negatively within spatio-temporal dichotomy and build credible writer or speaker who use these strategies as a means of convincing people in order to legitimate claims about the danger of Covid-19 and the need for preparedness against it

Regional Cooperation Initiatives in the South Caucasus after the Second Karabakh War

The South Caucasus is presented as a “broken” region especially in the western literature due to several reasons. On one hand, the external actors has had incompatible interests over the territory because of its significant geopolitical and geostrategic location and rich energy resources. On the other hand, the South Caucasus has been scene to numerous long-standing disputes and destructive military confrontations. At the result, the security and peace of the region were jeopardized. Even if different regional partnership initiatives were proposed by the leaders of regional states since the dissolution of the Soviet Union, none of them have been implemented. The outbreak of the Second Karabakh War between Azerbaijan and Armenia did not only change the status quo between these two countries, it transformed the geopolitical realities of the South Caucasus and was a “wake-up” call for the countries to understand the necessity of peace and stability for the region. One of the first initiatives put forward to this end is the so-called 3+3 regional cooperation platform which includes the three South Caucasian republics plus Turkey, Russia, and Iran. The initiative was proposed by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan following the war. This master thesis discusses the impacts of 44 days war on the possibility of realization of the 3+3 cooperation format. It evaluates the benefits the interested parties could derive from this partnership and its role for developing conditions conducive for peace, security and prosperity in the South Caucasus. The research methodology is based on the case study method which helps the author to investigate the six-country regional cooperation from different analytical perspectives. The findings shows that even if there are opportunities for the integration of the region more than ever, there are still challenges for stability and the security of this territory which hinders the materialization of six-party cooperation. In order to end the hostilities between Azerbaijan and Armenia, the ceasefire agreement was signed in November 2020. However, it is not enough, and a peace agreement is needed to refrain parties from any military attack and support the reconciliation process. Other requirements for the peaceful and prosperous future of the South Caucasus are the harmonization of the interest of the external parties and the creation of security framework

La creación de capacitación reactiva como un factor movilizador para la actividad cognitiva de los estudiantes

The article examines the relationship between cognitive activity and creation of feedback in learning. The study was conducted on 120 students of Baku State University. Experimental and control groups were selected in the research and carried out in two stages. During the research, modern teaching methods and other techniques were used to increase cognitive activity. A comparative analysis of the first and second stages showed that the relationship between increased cognitive activity and the feedback mechanism is bilateral. That is, the creation of feedback increases cognitive activity, increasing cognitive activity inevitably creates a feedback mechanism. The research has shown that there is a correlation between learning achievements (r = 0.29), self-realization (r = 0.33), self-assessment (r = 0.25), learning motivation (r = 0.35) and cognitive activity in the experimental group. The study concludes that high academic performance is associated with the desire to achieve the highest results, develop potential and increase self-esteem through academic achievement. The study concludes that the desire to develop the potential, to achieve the highest results with high academic performance and to increase self-esteem through academic achievement are interconnected. It is the feedback mechanism that can act as a condition for enhancing learning achievements.El artículo examina la relación entre la actividad cognitiva y la creación de retroalimentación en el aprendizaje.

Legal Issues Arising From the Commercialization of Cultural Heritage

Cultural heritage and natural resources belonging to indigenous people and local communities may constitute significant contribution for them. However, commodification of cultural heritage has both positive and negative impacts. Appropriation, loss of culture, pseudo-culture, loss of the authenticity of the culture, exclusion of the heritage owners to get benefits and economic gains, commodification of the culture and loss of identity of indigenous communities are some of the problematic issues. However, concerns on responsibility, regulations of trade in relation with cultural heritage, sustainable development, preservation of culture, conservation of cultural and natural heritage raised by the world community in different levels (such as academician, lawyers, nongovernmental organizations, etc.) create opportunity to find solutions for reconciliation between the culture and commerce

Has COVID-19 Affected Students' Attitudes towards Online Education? A Case Study of Azerbaijan

The article analyses changes in attitudes towards online education in Azerbaijan during the unprecedented global lockdown resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic led to the total closure of all educational institutions in Azerbaijan and marked the beginning of massive online learning in schools and universities across the country. The present study is based on analysis of data collected from a survey of 1300 students representing 20 universities in Azerbaijan. The starting point for the analysis was to ask whether the students had online learning experience prior to the mandatory shift to distance learning or not. The students were also asked to provide their opinion regarding both traditional and online learning tools. This information enabled the research group to examine the weaknesses and strengths of both educational models. Having little to no experience with online education, about 36.5% of Azerbaijani students nonetheless expressed willingness to continue their education in an online mode, most preferring online courses over online degree programs. Difficulties with technical issues and unprepared instructors were cited as key issues among the remaining 63% of students who preferred the traditional mode of education
