Responsibility for the organization, distribution and use of substances and methods prohibited for use in sports

This article is devoted to modelling the criminal liability for the organization, distribution and use of substances and (or) methods prohibited in sports. The authors have chosen their own models of criminal responsibility, developed in the theory of criminal law in the sphere of the use of substances and methods prohibited in sports as the objects for the study. Authors substantiated and highlighted the expediency of establishing criminal liability for the use of substances and (or) methods, prohibited in sports for different types of subjects: for a professional athlete; for a non-professional athlete; for officials; for medical personnel organizing the use of substances and (or) methods prohibited in sports; for trainers and other individuals. The article also discusses the process of distribution of drugs banned in sports, in which other individuals related to professional sports might also be involved. As these individuals might also act as: former professional athletes who retained connections and contacts in the world of professional sports; directors and managers of sports teams; other individuals directly related to professional sports and contacts that allow the distribution of prohibited drugs and methods. As a result of the study, the authors proposed to supplement Chapter 22 of the Criminal Code with two new articles: Art. 184.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation "Organization of the use of substances and (or) methods prohibited in sports" and art. 184.2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation "Distribution of substances banned in sports".peer-reviewe

Practical recommendations on students’ tolerant behavior formation in universities

© 2016 Kutuev et al.The relevance of the study is conditioned by the development of civil society and legal state, which are characterized by the observance of and respect for the rights and freedoms of man and citizen, a recognition of individual freedom and the values of each person. The purpose of this article is to develop practical recommendations on formation of students’ tolerant behavior in universities. The leading approach of the study is existential approach which allows to consider process of formation of tolerant behavior as personal development, who is conscious of the uniqueness of each person, understands the meaning of free choice and responsibility, recognizes the objectivity of the relationship with other people who searches for life values and understands the meaning of his or her own life. The study involved 400 teachers, 500 students, which revealed the criteria of tolerant behavior. Main results of the research consist in the characterization of tolerant behavior as a systemic integrity of qualities and abilities of the person providing the formation of orientation on the assimilation and implementation of social norm of mutual understanding and constructive cooperation with other people and formation of readiness to recognition, sustainability and conscious actions on the basis of consent and social partnership; identifying of situational-discrete and permanent-prolonged forms of education of students’ tolerant behavior, providing real assistance in specific problem situations and continuous support during the whole study at the University. The significance of the results obtained is that the compiled characteristics of tolerant behavior allows to allocate in its structure the subjectivity characterizing the person's ability to interact with others, constructive actions in the border situations and responsibility for their own choice; sociality, manifested in the models of social and steady behavior; being educated, which provides the process of purposeful influence on the person to form the active-effective state of acceptance of other people, and himself. The identified forms in upbringing of tolerant behavior contribute to the formation of focus on the model of tolerant behavior, determined by legal and social norms; effective social and professional interaction taking into account ethno-cultural and confessional differences

Integration of engineering education and business education as a driver of the development of national economies of post-Soviet countries

На основі аналізу даних соціологічного дослідження, проведеного в рамках міжнародного науково-дослідного проекту БРФФД-ДФФДУ на тему «інтеграція інженерної освіти і бізнес-освіти в технічних університетах України і Білорусі як фактор розвитку національних економік», виявлено високий рівень мотивації і готовність студентів інженерних спеціальностей Національного технічного університету України «Київський політехнічний інститут ім. Ігоря Сікорського» (Київ) і білоруського національного технічного університету (Мінськ) займатися промисловим підприємництвом. Обґрунтовується, що технічне студентство країн колишнього радянського Союзу може бути соціальною базою переходу до ринкової інноваційної економіки, за умови здійснення інтеграції інженерної освіти і бізнес-освіти в технічних університетах для підготовки інженера-підприємця (подібна інтеграція вже існує в західних країнах). Аргументується (з урахуванням відповідного міжнародного досвіду), що існує висока потреба в підготовці інженера-підприємця в пострадянських країнах, оскільки дана соціальна фігура є ключовою в комерціалізації технічної творчості – глобального тренду, запущеного в західних країнах в ході розвитку промислового капіталізму і обґрунтованого в концепції інноваційної економіки видатного австрійсько-американського економіста Й. Шумпетера. Публікація містить результати досліджень, проведених за грантової підтримки Державного фонду фундаментальних досліджень України за конкурсним проектом Ф73/24456 «Інтеграція інженерної освіти і бізнес-освіти в технічних університетах України та Білорусі як фактор розвитку національних економік».The article is based on the analysis of sociological data from a survey carried out within the framework of the BRFFR-SFFRU international research project entitled «The integration of engineering and business education in technical universities of Ukraine and Belarus as a factor of national economic development». The research demonstrates a high level of motivation and readiness of students specializing in engineering in National Technical University of Ukraine "Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute" (Kiev) and Belorussian National Technical University (Minsk) to engage in industrial entrepreneurship. The study convincingly proves that the technical students of the former Soviet countries can be a social base for the transition to a market-based innovation economy subject to the integration of engineering education and business education in technical universities for the training of entrepreneur-engineer (such integration already exists in Western countries). Taking into account the relevant international experience, it is argued that there is a high need for training an engineer-entrepreneur in the former Soviet countries, since this is a key social figure in the commercialization of technical creativity – a global trend launched in Western countries during the development of industrial capitalism and grounded in the concept of innovative economy by a famous Austrian-American economist, J. Schumpeter. The publication contains the results of studies conducted with the grant support of the State Fund for Fundamental Research of Ukraine on the competition project F73 / 24456 "Integration of engineering education and business education in technical universities in Ukraine and Belarus as a factor in the development of national economies.На основе анализа данных социологического исследования, проведенного в рамках международного научно-исследовательского проекта БРФФИ-ГФФИУ по теме «Интеграция инженерного образования и бизнес-образования в технических университетах Украины и Беларуси как фактор развития национальных экономик», выявлены высокий уровень мотивации и готовность студентов инженерных специальностей Национального технического университета Украины «Киевский политехнический институт им. Игоря Сикорского» (Киев) и Белорусского национального технического университета (Минск) заниматься промышленным предпринимательством. Обосновывается, что техническое студенчество стран бывшего Советского Союза может быть социальной базой перехода к рыночной инновационной экономике при условии осуществления интеграции инженерного образования и бизнес-образования в технических университетах для подготовки инженера-предпринимателя (подобная интеграция уже существует в западных странах). Аргументируется (с учетом соответствующего международного опыта), что существует высокая потребность в подготовке инженера-предпринимателя в бывших советских странах, поскольку данная социальная фигура является ключевой в коммерциализации технического творчества – глобального тренда, запущенного в западных странах в ходе развития промышленного капитализма и обоснованного в концепции инновационной экономики выдающегося австрийско-американского экономиста Й.

Azimuthal anisotropy of K0s and Lambda prduction at mid-rapidity from Au+Au collisions at root s = 130 GeV

We report STAR results on the azimuthal anisotropy parameter v2 for strange particles K0S, L and Lbar at midrapidity in Au+Au collisions at sNN = 130 GeV at RHIC. The value of v2 as a function of transverse momentum of the produced particles pt and collision centrality is presented for both particles up to pt 3.0 GeV/c. A strong pt dependence in v2 is observed up to 2.0 GeV/c. The v2 measurement is compared with hydrodynamic model calculations. The physics implications of the pt integrated v2 magnitude as a function of particle mass are also discussed.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, by the STAR collaboratio

Azimuthal anisotropy and correlations in the hard scattering regime at RHIC

Azimuthal anisotropy ($v_2$) and two-particle angular correlations of high $p_T$ charged hadrons have been measured in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=130 GeV for transverse momenta up to 6 GeV/c, where hard processes are expected to contribute significantly. The two-particle angular correlations exhibit elliptic flow and a structure suggestive of fragmentation of high $p_T$ partons. The monotonic rise of $v_2(p_T)$ for $p_T<2$ GeV/c is consistent with collective hydrodynamical flow calculations. At \pT>3 GeV/c a saturation of $v_2$ is observed which persists up to $p_T=6$ GeV/c.Comment: As publishe

Disappearance of back-to-back high pTp_T hadron correlations in central Au+Au collisions at sNN\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200 GeV

Azimuthal correlations for large transverse momentum charged hadrons have been measured over a wide pseudo-rapidity range and full azimuth in Au+Au and p+p collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV. The small-angle correlations observed in p+p collisions and at all centralities of Au+Au collisions are characteristic of hard-scattering processes already observed in elementary collisions. A strong back-to-back correlation exists for p+p and peripheral Au + Au. In contrast, the back-to-back correlations are reduced considerably in the most central Au+Au collisions, indicating substantial interaction as the hard-scattered partons or their fragmentation products traverse the medium.Comment: submitted to Phys. Rev. Let

Elliptic flow from two- and four-particle correlations in Au + Au collisions at sqrt{s_{NN}} = 130 GeV

Elliptic flow holds much promise for studying the early-time thermalization attained in ultrarelativistic nuclear collisions. Flow measurements also provide a means of distinguishing between hydrodynamic models and calculations which approach the low density (dilute gas) limit. Among the effects that can complicate the interpretation of elliptic flow measurements are azimuthal correlations that are unrelated to the reaction plane (non-flow correlations). Using data for Au + Au collisions at sqrt{s_{NN}} = 130 GeV from the STAR TPC, it is found that four-particle correlation analyses can reliably separate flow and non-flow correlation signals. The latter account for on average about 15% of the observed second-harmonic azimuthal correlation, with the largest relative contribution for the most peripheral and the most central collisions. The results are also corrected for the effect of flow variations within centrality bins. This effect is negligible for all but the most central bin, where the correction to the elliptic flow is about a factor of two. A simple new method for two-particle flow analysis based on scalar products is described. An analysis based on the distribution of the magnitude of the flow vector is also described.Comment: minor text change

Multiplicity distribution and spectra of negatively charged hadrons in Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_nn) = 130 GeV

The minimum bias multiplicity distribution and the transverse momentum and pseudorapidity distributions for central collisions have been measured for negative hadrons (h-) in Au+Au interactions at sqrt(s_nn) = 130 GeV. The multiplicity density at midrapidity for the 5% most central interactions is dNh-/deta|_{eta = 0} = 280 +- 1(stat)+- 20(syst), an increase per participant of 38% relative to ppbar collisions at the same energy. The mean transverse momentum is 0.508 +- 0.012 GeV/c and is larger than in central Pb+Pb collisions at lower energies. The scaling of the h- yield per participant is a strong function of pt. The pseudorapidity distribution is almost constant within |eta|<1.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figure
