Purpose: This article focuses on Article 207 of the 1988 Brazilian Constitution. It then discusses the pros and cons of this article, which gives full rights to Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in relation to their teaching and administrative autonomy. The social problem is as follows: Do HEIs (Higher Education Institutions) violate the law or not, as they are protected by Article 207 of the 1988 Brazilian Constitution? The aim of this study is to show how HEIs use Article 207 (BRAZIL, 1988) in their selection processes for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in Brazil. Method: This investigation used the Experience Report as its method and the qualitative approach as its approach. Results and Discussion: The results of this study show that HEIs do violate the law. Unfortunately, there seems to be no supervision by public bodies, except when the MEC (Ministry of Education) or another recognized body visits these institutions to qualify or disqualify their courses at national level and even internationally (institutions other than the MEC). On these occasions, unfortunately, many camouflages are made by these HEIs. Reading this article, it becomes clear that the university autonomy of Article 207 of the 1988 Federal Constitution (BRAZIL, 1988) does not in fact guarantee democracy within the HEIs, especially when it comes to entering and remaining as a student, teacher and/or employee/servant, especially in public HEIs. Implications of the Research: This experience report explores the possibility of re-evaluating Article 207 of the Brazilian Constitution of 1988, to the extent that the autonomy guaranteed to Higher Education Institutions in Brazil is more effective, linked to constant inspections by public authorities without prior warning. Thus, it is understood that, although "enslaved" to a higher order represented by the Brazilian government and the legislation in force in Brazil, Brazilian universities will indeed be secular and for everyone. Originality/Value: This research and article, although short, raises for discussion a crucial point for guaranteeing democracy in access to higher education and postgraduate studies in Brazil, which is little debated. There is a lot of talk about autonomy within Brazilian universities today. However, there is little questioning of this autonomy and how harmful and lethal it can be to democracy within them.

Objetivo: El propósito de este artículo es analizar cómo las creencias, tradiciones y valores culturales influyen en la percepción y las prácticas alimentarias dentro de una comunidad específica, prestando especial atención a cómo la cultura interviene en la formación de hábitos alimentarios a lo largo de la vida. Marco Teórico: La aculturación dietética y su relevancia en el estudio de los hábitos alimentarios, explora cómo las personas adoptan prácticas alimentarias de una cultura dominante o de otras culturas con las que entran, la aculturación afecta los hábitos alimentarios de las personas, incluyendo cambios en la preferéncia de alimentos, patrones de consumo, y la adopción de nuevas prácticas culinarias. Las creencias culturales y hábitos alimentarios examinan cómo las creencias arraigadas en la cultura de origen influyen en los hábitos alimentarios de las personas. Esto puede incluir creencias sobre la salud, la pureza de los alimentos, los roles de género en la cocina, entre otros aspectos. Existen actores que pueden influir en el proceso de aculturación dietética, como la exposición a medios de comunicación, migración, interacciones sociales, y políticas alimentarias. Método: Se realizó una revisión sistemática de la literatura científica utilizando bases de datos reconocidas como Scopus y SciELO. Se aplicó el método PRISMA, centrada en preguntas claves para la selección de estudios relevantes que abordaran la influencia cultural en las prácticas alimentarias Resultados y Discusión: Los resultados obtenidos permitieron identificar la marcada influencia de las creencias, tradiciones y valores culturales en la percepción de los alimentos y en las prácticas alimentarias de una comunidad específica. Se evidencia la importancia de considerar factores como el dominio de los medios de comunicación, estrategias de socialización alimentaria en el ámbito familiar y la vinculación entre los hábitos alimentarios y el rendimiento académico. Implicaciones de la Investigación: Este estudio contribuye significativamente a la comprensión de cómo las creencias, tradiciones y valores culturales arraigados influyen en la percepción y las prácticas dietéticas de una comunidad específica, con especial énfasis en la interacción entre la cultura y la adquisición de hábitos dietéticos a lo largo del ciclo de vida. Originalidad/Valor: Este estudio aporta una contribución original y valiosa al campo de la nutrición y la antropología alimentaria al profundizar en la comprensión de cómo las creencias culturales sustentables y sostenibles influyen en los hábitos alimentarios a través del proceso de aculturación.

Purpose: An assessment report involves defining and adopting each premise for the valuation method used. In the core of the assessment, solid premises are crucial to ensure that the resulting value is representative of the reality imposed in the evaluation. This research aimed to analyze whether the values adopted in the projection premises align with the actual values over time. Design/Methodology/Approach: Twelve (12) essential premises commonly used in assessment reports were considered. The unique aspect of this study is its focus on all takeover bid reports available at the Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil over the last 20 years. Findings: The main results indicate that 50% of the analyzed premises exhibited some form of bias, predominantly an increase in the projected values compared to the actual values obtained. These findings were statistically proven through hypothesis tests for paired values. Research, Practical & Social Implications: This research not only aims to contribute to the professional development of those involved in constructing assessment reports but also encourages future studies to focus on analyzing the quality of the premises used and their sources. This will allow for the continuation of such research, considering the growing interest in this type of study within the academic community. Originality/Value: It was found that the projected premises are more stable than their actual values obtained subsequently.

Purpose: Our objective is to examine the switching costs that exist in the European postal service, where an ambitious process of opening up to competition has been carried out since 1997, as well as the different types of retention costs. Theoretical Framework: The theoretical framework is determined by the sectoral regulatory framework regarding the liberalization of services of general economic interest in the EU, the experience of postal operators in recent decades and the changes experienced in the demand for postal services in the current context of profound technological change in the field of communication. Design/Methodology/Approach: This research work is carried out through a systematic review of the relevant specialized literature, the study of the policy decisions adopted in the EU, the changes in the strategies of postal operators and the rigorous analysis of the evolution of the demand of the postal services in a context of rapid and profound change. Finding: Inadequate regulation of the access to some elements of postal infrastructure or services within the scope of the universal postal service, such as the postcode system, address database, post office boxes, delivery boxes, re-direction and retour to sender service, can generate switching costs and thus limiting competition, with negative effects on the consumer surplus and social welfare. Standardization and access to these elements may be regulated separately Research, Practical & Social Implications: This article proposes solutions to the technical functions of coordination between operators. Our proposals are in line with sectoral directives aimed at strengthening competition in the long term in the postal market. Originality/Value: A correct classification of the change costs applied to the liberalized postal service is made. Likewise, a classification of retention costs.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to examine the interactive effect of migrant remittances and financial market development on growth in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Design/Methodology/Approach: The study uses the dynamic heterogeneous panel data approach-the pool mean group (PMG) technique in analyzing data obtained from twenty-seven countries covering the period 2000- 2020. Findings: The study findings reveal that the interactive effect of migrant remittances and financial market development on growth in the region is positive and significant, implying a complementarity relationship. Originality: The value of the study is represented by the measurement of key variables like financial market development (i.e. equity market development and banking sector development). Also, investigating whether the interactive effect of migrant remittances and financial market development on growth in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is complementarity or substitutes is of importance to guide policymakers in the region.

Background: The continuous advancement of information technology has transformed how businesses and organizations carry out their day-to-day activities. Many people are choosing to work remotely because they are handling a significant number of human interactions through various virtual communication platforms. Remote work facilitates business growth and improves customer service, yet it presents its challenges, necessitating an investigation into virtual team morale to guarantee project success. Method: This study employed content analysis of readily available secondary data to examine the investigated phenomenon. Results: The study determined that the key elements for enhancing project success in virtual teams are technology adoption, an environment free from distractions, effective leadership, trust, communication, a well-defined task, active team engagement, and motivation. The study also found that morale strongly influences engagement and productivity in virtual teams. Therefore, when morale is high, virtual teams achieve their optimal performance. Conclusion: The research concluded that selecting the suitable technology for communication, assigning virtual team members with distinct roles and responsibilities, fostering a culture of accountability and trust within virtual teams, promoting efficient team collaboration, and motivating virtual team members are the most impactful tactics for enhancing employee engagement and performance in virtual teams.

Purpose: The objective of this study is to examine joint venture, technology transfer on the performance of Nigeria's oil and gas sector between 1981-2021. Theoretical Framework: It is indisputable that the Nigerian oil and gas sector is not at peak performance when compared to what is obtainable from its peers in the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) (Iheukwumere, 2021; OPEC, ASB 2020). One of the factors responsible for the abysmal performance is ineffective and incoherent technology transfer management through joint venture arrangements (Odusina, 2022). Therefore, there is a need to empirically investigate the impact of joint venture arrangements on Nigeria's oil and gas sector production which lacks sufficient research. Methodology: The ex-post facto design was used where data were collected through secondary sources on the aggregate output of the joint venture companies and the total yearly output of the upstream sector of Nigeria’s oil and gas industry represented the performance of the Nigerian oil and gas sector in the period 1980 to 2021. The collected data were analyzed using the Quantile Autoregressive Distributed Lag (QARDL) approach to test for short and long-run impacts. Findings: The study revealed that there is a significant impact of joint venture arrangements on oil and gas production in both the short run and long run. Research, Practical & Social Implication: The study therefore recommends that policymakers and industry stakeholders should carefully evaluate the terms and conditions of joint ventures to ensure their alignment with the goals of maximizing oil and gas production. Originality/Value: The use of joint venture as a proxy for technology transfer in the production of oil and gas in Nigeria and use of secondary data between 1980-2021 for joint ventures is an eye-opener for further exploration of the study areas in oil and gas production management, particularly in the area of technology transfer, which lacks sufficient research.
