Abstract

For over four decades, the Trojan horse has been a persistent threat in the digital landscape. Since its inception, this malicious software has evolved alongside technological advancements, adapting to new platforms and exploiting emerging vulnerabilities. This paper examines the early years of the Trojan horse, from 1972 to 1983, focusing on three key aspects: the victim, the source, and the technological environment. Victim Perspective: In the early days of the Trojan horse, the primary concern was data integrity. Malware was designed to corrupt, delete, or steal sensitive information. However, as technology progressed, the focus shifted towards system disruption. Modern malware often aims to disable or compromise entire systems, rather than simply accessing data. Source Perspective: During the early years, there was little discussion about the origins of malware or methods to prevent it at the source. However, as the threat landscape evolved, so too did the strategies for combating malware. Environmental Perspective: The technological environment has played a significant role in the evolution of malware. This perspective address significant events in the malware's history, events which by the way teach us much about the development of technology during this time. The period of 1972 to 1983 provides the first case of a Trojan horse in the wild. The objective of this paper is to illustrate that a meticulous examination of past malware incidents can provide valuable insights into contemporary and forthcoming cyber threats.

Abstract

This article examines the ritual and symbolic interventions of Sree Narayana Guru as transformative acts that redefined the relationship between religion, society, and justice in early twentieth-century Kerala. Guru’s consecration of alternative idols, his opening of temples to marginalized communities, and his embedding of civic virtues within ritual life challenged the Brahminical monopoly over sacred authority and offered an ethical framework grounded in equality and dignity. While these reforms are often interpreted within the regional context of Kerala’s caste struggles, this study situates them within a broader global history of ritual reform. Comparisons are drawn with Martin Luther’s Protestant Reformation in Europe, the Buddhist rejection of Brahminical ritualism in ancient India, the role of Latin American Liberation Theology, and South African churches under apartheid. Through these parallels, the article highlights the universal struggle to reclaim sacred spaces from exclusionary practices and to transform them into platforms for emancipation. The analysis also brings Guru into conversation with decolonial theory and constitutional morality. His praxis anticipates Boaventura de Sousa Santos’s Epistemologies of the South and resonates with global debates on gender inclusion, education, and social justice. Contemporary issues such as caste inequality, the Sabarimala case, India’s National Education Policy, and diaspora temple practices demonstrate the enduring relevance of Guru’s vision. By placing his reforms in a transnational frame, the article argues that Guru’s interventions represent not only a milestone in Kerala’s social history but also a contribution to global conversations on ritual, justice, and decolonial futures.

Abstract

Cooperatives have long been an important part of the Indonesian people's economy, since their emergence in the late 19th century, cooperatives have developed into a forum for the community to improve economic welfare through the principles of togetherness and mutual cooperation. Along with economic development and more complex financial needs, the concept of cooperatives has experienced innovation with the presence of Sharia Financial Services Cooperatives (KJKS). KJKS is a form of cooperative that operates according to Shari'ah principles, avoiding usury and using Shari'ah contracts in its operations. KJKS has successfully provided fair and Sharia-compliant financial services in various regions, including Kamal, Bangkalan. This success is characterized by increased access to finance for the community and microeconomic growth in the region. This research examines the history of Indonesian cooperatives, the legal basis and basic principles of KJKS, and its application in Kamal. It is hoped that the results of this research will provide insight into the role of KJKS in community economic empowerment and its contribution to the Shari'a-based financial system in Indonesia, including policy recommendations for program optimization.

Abstract

Indigenous and folk water representations are examined using the conceptual lenses "Rainline" and "Waterline," which investigate how rain interacts symbolically and pragmatically in environmental traditions. The study contrasts eco-critical research from Bangladesh, India, the US, and Germany to examine how songs, rituals, myths, and proverbs reflect cultural reactions to rain and water as sacred and ecological requirements. The studies center on Bangladesh's Garo, Santal, and Rajbongshi people, Indian tribal and Vedic rain customs, Native American rain invasions, and European farming. Various societies both cognitively modify and symbolically control natural forces. In emotional and agricultural life, rainfall is required, negotiated, and acknowledged; these ideas help to organize these symbolic surroundings. The article combines folklore research, thematic coding, and comparative cultural hermeneutics. These approaches are not relics; they assert that they are dynamic ecological knowledge systems with sustainable knowledge. It suggests considering localized, culturally informed responses to water and temperature as means of climate adaptation.

Abstract

Given the various causes, trajectories, and impacts of historical issues, studies should also be multifaceted, with one important component being the reconstruction of local history that sheds light on specific locations and periods, thereby integrating the periphery into the center. Until recently, Ethiopian historiography was characterized by an overemphasis on the northern rulers' and political institutions. The incorporated south, as well as the major themes affecting its peoples, were less treated. This study explores the changes and continuities since Menilek's occupation, focusing on land, the Italian administration, the Plane incident, and the Michele peasant uprising from 1935 to the 1960. I argue that the conquest of the Gedeo of Southern Ethiopia by Menelik's forces in 1895, along with the subsequent domination by northerners, led to a series of socio-political and economic crises in Gedeo. This condition eroded internal cooperation in fighting external forces, allowing Italy to easily control the area, eventually culminating in the Michele peasant uprising of the 1960s. This study revealed that the Gedeo people enjoyed greater freedom during the brief Italian occupation from 1935 to 1941 than they experienced under the long imperial rule. This research also uncovered an airplane incident in the Gedeo zone related to the Italian war, which has not been addressed in any previous studies. After liberation, the Gedeo people faced significant hardships, leading to the Michelle peasant rebellion in the 1960s. The Italian period was brief but had a significant impact, characterized by more changes than continuities in their ruling approach and administration. Drawing on archival sources, including government documents, reports, news articles, and interviews with knowledgeable elders, this study highlights the changes and continuities in Gedeo from a grassroots perspective, challenging the top-down historical narratives that dominate Ethiopian historiography. Regarding the plane incident, since this is the first research on the event, it solely used photographs of the remaining portion of the aircraft, oral informants including eyewitnesses, and group discussion. This study adds to our understanding of local history by documenting the effects of occupation and how residents reacted beyond the sociopolitical repercussions in Gedeo. Unlike some of the previous studies in Ethiopia, this article broadens the geographical scope and thematic areas of Ethiopian history, as it was carried out in a relatively periphery region. It highlights the significance of incorporating local history to successfully address the long-term repercussions of isolation from national and economic activities, rather than adhering to center-periphery paradigms. In General this study mainly employed historical methods to gather key primary and secondary sources on the topic.

Abstract

Purpose. This study investigates the perceptions, expectations, and attitudes of students at Rajshahi University regarding the interim government in Bangladesh, which emerged during a critical phase of democratic transition. The interim government's primary role is to implement essential reforms and ensure the transfer of power to a democratically elected political government through fair and timely elections. Design/Methodology/Approach. A mixed-method approach was adopted, combining both qualitative and quantitative data collection techniques. Structured printed questionnaires were distributed among Rajshahi University students, incorporating both closed-ended and open-ended questions. The closed-ended questions provided measurable data, while the open-ended section allowed respondents to freely express their views. Microsoft Excel was used for data analysis and graphical representation, and Microsoft Word was used for drafting the report. Findings. The results indicate that the majority of students at Rajshahi University hold a generally positive view of the interim government. Most respondents support the idea of essential reforms before the transition to an elected government. However, there is a divergence of opinion regarding the duration of the interim government's tenure. While some students advocate for an extended reform period, others emphasize the urgency of restoring a political government through prompt elections. This division reflects the broader societal debate surrounding the balance between stability and democratic continuity. Originality/Value. This research contributes original insights into youth perspectives on governance and democratic transitions in Bangladesh. It highlights the role of educated youth as active stakeholders in political discourse and offers valuable data that can inform future policy decisions during transitional political phases. By focusing on Rajshahi University students, the study provides a focused but significant window into how Bangladesh’s younger generation interprets and engages with periods of political transformation.

Abstract

The Benue Valley, located in North Central Nigeria and encompassing parts of Benue, Taraba, Kogi, and Nasarawa States, has faced increasingly devastating flooding events since 2012, exacerbated by excessive rainfall and the release of water from Cameroon’s Lagdo Dam. This study examines the public health implications of recurring floods in the region using a qualitative historical methodology and multidisciplinary analysis. Findings reveal widespread damage to health infrastructure, increased breeding of disease vectors such as mosquitoes, water pollution, and outbreaks of malaria, cholera, and typhoid. The destruction of clinics and displacement of residents severely limited access to healthcare, placing strain on surviving facilities. The study recommends structural interventions, including the construction of buffer dams, river dredging, and improved drainage systems, alongside policies to relocate vulnerable populations and increase access to clean water.

Abstract

Kashmir, popularly known as paradise on earth is gifted with numerous water bodies comprising of rivers, lakes, streams and springs.  We discuss in this paper various water bodies of district Anantnag of Kashmir valley, their present status and role. Data was collected from published resources, internet and field surveys for this study. It was found that once clean water bodies of district Anantnag like Tulian lake, Sheshnag Lake, Marsar Lake,  Harbagwan Lake, Jhelum  etc are at present facing significant challenges related to pollution and degradation. . The district is also home to several rivers like the Brengi, Sandran and the Lidder, which originates from Sheshnag Lake. Additionally, Verinag, a spring of historical and scenic importance, is located in Anantnag district, have fallen victim to extensive encroachment, garbage dumping, climate change, over-extraction of ground water,  and the release of untreated sewage. Water bodies play a vital role in the region's ecosystem,  human settlements,  support local ecosystems, agriculture sector, fisheries, and tourism which play a significant role in Jammu and Kashmir’s economy. Field survey revealed that several water bodies, river banks  of district Anantnag due to lack of awareness about waste management,  have become dumping sites for garbage, resulting in environmental degradation as well as  health hazards. Water Pollution, Siltation and Deforestation, Climate Change are the main challenges water bodies are  facing in district Anantnag. In major religions of the world water is considered sacred.  In Islam water occupies a pivotal role, mentioned 63 times in Quran and is recognized  as a blessing that gives and sustains life, and purifies humankind and the earth.  The principle of water conservation in Islam is beautifully illustrated by the rule which says that while making ablutions (wudu) we should be abstemious in the use of water even if we have a river at our disposal.  In conclusion, it is the responsibility of all stake holders to protect  water bodies used as drinking water sources, an important component of our  lives.
