Inheriting the humanistic and revolutionary spirit of the French Enlightenment, especially from Rousseau, in the twentieth century, President Ho Chi Minh, on the foundation of Marxism-Leninism, solved the problem of the liberated nation, human rights, and civil rights with realistic social revolutions, contributing to the common progress of humanity according to the ideals of freedom and equality for all people and peoples. The socialist state of Vietnam, from the first days of its founding, has been a constitutional and legal state in accordance with all principles of a legitimate state. Thanks to its legitimacy, the Vietnamese state had gained the strength and legitimacy needed in the struggle to protect national independence from hostile forces. Facing the requirements of socio-political reality, Vietnam, on the theoretical basis of Ho Chi Minh's thoughts, has made efforts to consolidate and perfect the state to ensure civil and human rights in the country, contributing to promoting peace, cooperation, and progress of the world. Researching a variety of thoughts from Rousseau's views on the legal and constitutional state to Ho Chi Minh's thoughts and drawing out the core values and orientations for building the administrative system in Vietnam today is the purpose of the article.

The purpose of this study was to characterize a Person Deprived of Liberty (PDL) in determining crime causation using Kretschmer’s classification. These PDLs who committed crimes covering the study's findings may help practitioners identify potential offenders through profiling, and the period of 2015 to 2017, were confined in the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology Region XI. The study's findings may help practitioners identify potential offenders through profiling come up with additional literature related to policing and share findings and recommendations to inform future researchers and clarify the policy implications of the association of Body Mass Index and delinquency. The study employed Quantitative Descriptive Research utilizing secondary data. Descriptive Research was a method to generate knowledge in describing the characteristics of offenders thru Body Mass Index about the occurrence of rape, murder, attempted murder, frustrated murder, and robbery. The findings of the study revealed that most of the crimes being studied were perpetrated by athletic type of persons for three consecutive years. It concludes that the state of muscularity may lead to masculinity which allows to dominate others and encourage to use violence and threat. Muscular or physical strength has concluded that an offender was more muscular or physically more robust than a non-offender. Article visualizations:

This article aims to examine the hypothesis that local macroeconomic factors affect the volume of initial public offerings (IPOs) in a rising market, India, between 2015 and 2022. Initial public offerings (IPOs) are shown to have a positive correlation with industrial output and a negative correlation with interest rates. Using co-integration and Vector Error Correction models, we find a long-run equilibrium link between interest rates, industrial output, and initial public offerings (IPOs). Using a Markov regime-switching regression model, we also find that the effect of interest rates on IPO numbers is much more significant in the cold IPO regime than in the IPO hot regime. The empirical result seems to detect the IPO market's trend with a fair amount of accuracy. The findings demonstrate that a hot IPO market regime develops when investors start seeing extraordinarily high early returns, and their expectations about the future interest rate indicate the eagerness of entrepreneurs and managers to enter the IPO market. Conversely, a government's pursuit of monetary tightening causes investors to shy away from the IPO markets because they anticipate future profits will fall owing to rising interest rates and the price of shares will be harmed due to reduced dividend yield.

This paper explored the relationship between the level of leadership styles and the work climate of police stations, particularly in Davao City. It further tried to find out whether or not police supervisors’ leadership styles influence the work climate of police stations. The study made use of the descriptive-correlation method utilizing the adapted survey questionnaire to gather the needed information. Respondents were chosen based on their ranks; so, only 317 non-commissioned police officers in the different police stations in Davao City were chosen. Statistical tools used were mean, Pearson’s r, and regression analysis. The findings of this study revealed that police subordinates have a high level of leadership styles and work climate in police stations. Moreover, the study revealed a direct relationship between leadership styles and the work climate of police stations as far as Davao City police officers were concerned. The researcher concludes, therefore, that combined factors of leadership styles significantly influence the work climate of police stations. Among the four indicators of leadership styles, transformational leadership styles appeared as the domain that best predicted the work climate of police stations. Article visualizations:

Accreditation is a crucial internationally recognized evaluation process used to assess and enhance the quality, efficiency, and effectiveness of healthcare organizations. It is based on the idea that adhering to evidence-based standards can lead to high-quality healthcare services. However, accreditation often involves significant costs, making it essential to evaluate its worth, especially in resource-limited regions like public healthcare organizations in Rwanda. This study examined the contribution of the accreditation project to the quality of healthcare in King Faisal Hospital, Kigali. This study used a retrospective research design with a quantitative approach whereby 354 patient records were reviewed, of which 71 represented the period before accreditation, 169 represented the period after the first accreditation, and 114 represented the year in which the hospital was preparing for the third accreditation. In addition, secondary data analysis was conducted on available data from the Office of Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI), Office of the Chief Executive Officer, and Office of Human Resources. One-way analysis of variance was performed at a significance level of <0.05 to test for differences between the three time periods examined. The findings resulting from this analysis showed that accreditation is associated with improved healthcare service delivery (p < 0.001). The health service provided was permitted for only 11.3% of the patients served before the hospital's accreditation, while it was permitted for 90.5% of the patients served after the accreditation. In addition, the accreditation process optimized management and leadership efforts to improve the delivery of healthcare services through ratification, implementation, and monitoring of clinical policies, guidelines, and protocols, as well as an established workforce capacity-building system. Therefore, it is worth tackling accreditation as a strategic approach to improving the quality of healthcare services. Article visualizations:

In Ghana, 72 persons out of every 100,000 population, suffered from grievous bodily injuries, and close to 8 of the same population died from Road Traffic Accidents (RTAs) over the past decade. This study was conducted to explore the factors that contribute to pedestrian accidents on our roads as well as ways of preventing these accidents. Data were obtained from 70 pedestrians in the La Nkwantanang Madina Adenta Municipality. The descriptive analysis identified the following as possible causes of pedestrian accidents; pedestrian negligence, pedestrians using mobile phones whilst using the roads, and impatient drivers. The findings underscore the need for local government agencies to spearhead strategies of minimizing road crashes by forming neighbourhood safety groups. Their knowledge could be useful to identify problems that are difficult to detect. Article visualizations:

The mining industry has always played a key role in Zimbabwe’s economy in pre-colonial, colonial and post-independence eras. Historical records show that by the 13th century AD, there was evidence of gold mining in the country. During the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, a lucrative gold and ivory trade was underway between the Portuguese and the Munhumutapa empire (Mpofu, et al., 2009). During the late 19th century, the country was occupied by pioneers of British South African origin (under the protection of the BSAP). Gold mining was the major incentive for these colonizers. Each of the pioneers was promised 3 000 acres of land as well as fifteen gold claims (Mpofu, et al., 2009). According to Bulpin (1968) rumours had been spreading in South Africa that across the Limpopo River gold could be found hanging on tree branches. Though unfounded, such stories added impetus to every white man who dreamt of getting rich quickly to join the pioneers in their migration to the new colony. Since independence in 1980, some sixty minerals have been mined in Zimbabwe including gold, copper, tin, chrome, iron ore, asbestos, coal, lithium, diamonds and platinum (Munowenyu, 1996). To date, mining contributes over 90% to the country’s GDP. However, it is also a major source of income for rural communities that rely on gold panning in order to earn a living. Although the activity is regarded as illegal it contributes significantly to rural livelihoods. Gold panners usually sell their gold to Fidelity Printers and in return get US dollars for each ounce of gold sold. Due to their lack of technology, gold panners cause a lot of environmental damage which is worsened by their use of mercury in their activities. Mercury eventually spills into rivers and streams thereby poisoning water sources and the aquatic life therein. This study exposes the economic activities of small-scale miners in rural Chegutu Ward 22 (Zimbabwe) and their implications on sustainable development. Article visualizations:

Becker (1996) said that militias are right-wing populist movements that form from frustrations, in particular when the economy is poor. Outwardly, unrest fuels paramilitary forces, the unconscious incarnation of its hero-myths, and the accompanying symbols in the racial unconscious. Here, heroes are born out of necessity, specifically by some who rose above poverty. Using the Jungian model, Frye proposes the seasons as the phases where a hero follows the seasonal narratives from birth to tragedy, death and rebirth. Here, the Angels, a paramilitary force, reaches the pinnacle of their achievement, the Redemption of their identity via all four phases, fully vindicated in the memories of their survivors despite their pejorative origins. After furtive sessions with the survivors, the deepest unconscious embedded in Jungian archetype of the collective psyche was discovered. The undertones were deeply religious and arresting to discover that the militia provided for the needs of the townsfolk for immediate relief and basic needs such as food, shelter and clothing which explains the positive impression of those who have survived the phenomenon.
