This study was mainly aimed to explore the role of some demographic variables in the effect of emotional exhaustion on job performance of teaching staff. The study examined the direct effect of emotional exhaustion and then determined the moderating mechanism of gender, family system, and marital status. The researchers took a sample of 399 regular teachers (male = 235, female = 164) from universities and collected primary data for empirical analysis. For data collection, two questionnaires were developed on the basis of measures adopted from published and extensively followed studies. Dyadic and time lagged approaches of data collection were opted and separate questionnaires were mailed to teachers and their supervisors. Data on emotions and demographics were gathered from teachers while their performance was determined with the help of feedback from immediate supervisors, i.e. heads of the departments. For analyzing responses pertaining to direct effect, the study applied two-stages structural equation modelling. Further, the study probed the moderation of gender, family system, and marital status. The results of data analysis showed a negative and significant of emotional exhaustion on performance, role, and behavior of teachers at job. Interestingly, findings did not support the significant moderation of specified demographic variables. The study observed and reported a negative effect of emotional exhaustion for respondents, irrespective of their gender, family system, and marital status. The study proposed the implications, made various suggestions, and contributed in prevailing literature of emotional exhaustion and job performance association by demonstrating the moderating mechanism of three different demographic variables.

Kurds and Alevis have been two major ethnic groups that have fought for equal citizenship rights since the foundation of the Turkish Republic. However, in the historical process, both the influence of the dominant state discourse, the conflicts created by the global powers and the codes that settle in the historical-cultural memories keep a tension line alive between these two groups. Comprehending this tension requires understanding all these processes and various reactions. For example, migratory movements caused by the war in Syria lead to the rise of nationalism in Turkey, and the Kurds and Alevis, therefore, found themselves on different fronts. Or Alevis can believe the government’s nationalist discourse when it is about connecting HDP with terrorism although they do not agree with AKP (leading party of the government) under any other circumstances. This study intends to go deep into this tension, which can only be understood by making contact with the world of mentality, through field research which is the method of anthropology. In order to end the polarization which is fed by the hatred of identities and to establish a real democracy can only be made possible by the egalitarian contact of the oppressed peoples. Especially in a time where the authoritarian regimes are rising all over the world. For this reason, the study focuses on deciphering the interaction of the Alevis with the nationalist discourse that causes this hatred and finding the possibilities of establishing peaceful ways of communication.

This paper discusses the kidnapping and murder of Yingying Zhang, a visiting Chinese scholar at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, in Urbana, Illinois, United States on June 9, 2017 by Brendt Christensen, a Champaign resident and former physics graduate student at the university. Due to the transnational aspect of the case coupled with the heinousness of the crime, the murder drew international headlines, and the world hung on the edge of its collective seat as the case unfolded and eventually drew to its climactic conclusion. Tried in a U.S. state that had long-declared a moratorium on the controversial death penalty, Christensen was ultimately tried, via the “commerce clause,” under federal jurisdiction in which prosecutors sought capital punishment. While some in the state of Illinois decried the process, overseas, many in China espoused the appropriateness of a death sentence in this particular case, in which Ms. Zhang was brutally dismembered and her body never found. This paper examines the jurisdictional aspects of the death penalty in the U.S., scrutinizes the controversial U.S. Constitutional “commerce clause” in the context of criminal legal proceedings, elucidates the history and jurisprudential underpinnings of the death penalty in Chinese law, and discusses the psychosocial elements of Christensen’s defense which certainly spared him the death penalty.

The social cooperatives have a very important function in a peripheral area, they can create jobs for unemployed or disabled people in order to solve the unemployment problem in this area. Of course they can create with the necessary flexibility and innovation skills for rural areas and help to maintain the social peace to provide work with the less competitive part of the rural population (Bartha & Bereczk, 2018). However, the management of this enterprises faces several dilemmas how can build up an effective control system of a social enterprises in Central-Europe. Our research group has a long-term research project to help the social cooperative management in the daily operation based on a well-suited Balanced Scorecard Model to the specific needs of these organisation. A questionnaire survey has been made asking the social cooperative managers about the administration and management problems of their enterprises. According to our survey, the major problem of social cooperative is the quality of available labour force. So, the Human Resource management and how its tools can be effectively adapted to the social cooperatives has got a vital importance. The future aim of our research program is to develop a report system and a ratio analysis tool to help the work of social cooperative managers.

From the early 1990s, along with implementing structural adjustment policies, outsourcing education to the private sector and privatizing schools in Iran, especially in industrial cities, has been intensified. Today, 30 percent of Tehran’s schools and 18 percent of the whole country’s schools are being managed by the private sector. As a result of the commodification of education, not only educational justice is endangered, but also teachers’ working lives are wholly affected. Since the recent changes in teachers’ employment, the non-appointed teachers (over 100,000 teachers) have to live under temporary and insecure employment conditions. Given the gender gap in the Iranian labor market and the prevailing ideological mindset in education, women, especially non-appointed teachers of humanities, are experiencing a double discrimination. The Systematic monitoring of these female labor forces in private schools takes place through mechanisms such as controlling the educational content and dictating teaching methods, despecializing the workforce and controlling women’s daily lives. The process leads to teachers’ increasing alienation from the teaching process and takes teaching itself out of a democratic, critical, and practical function. By adopting a qualitative research approach and based on conducting in-depth interviews with 30 female humanities teachers working in private schools in Tehran, we have explored in this study, the challenges they are facing throughout their careers. The current study aims to contribute to the academic debates on the precarization and precarious employment to elucidate how the mechanisms and mediations of neoliberal policies have fragmented the teachers’ bargaining power over their rights.

Although the presumption of innocence is widely recognized as a fundamental principle of criminal and constitutional law, its implications are disputed. The presentation would consider the implication of the presumption of innocence in administrative proceedings concerning the removal of indicted public officeholders from their position and would relate to the holding of the Israeli Supreme Court regarding the possibility of assigning Benjamin Netanyahu, the indicted Israeli Prime Minister of the outgoing government, with the task of forming a government. The presentation would argue that a broad view of the presumption of innocence should protect accused persons from the infliction of any kind of harm by the state which expresses guilt towards them based on their status as accused, and should lead to its applicability to administrative proceedings concerning the removal of public officeholders from their position.
