Abstract

Aim: Individual and collective competencies emerge from the capability approach, with the freedom of choice aspect and actors’ organisation giving rise to them in accordance with their will and the particularity of their territory. All the interests and influences on the behaviour and the dynamics of the local actors that we wish to highlight through this article are reflected in the importance of creating a collective dynamic around the projects.Method: The tourism project’s relationships among various actors with competing goals were studied using a qualitative approach. This connection is analysed for its externalities (both positive and negative) and as a driving territory behind local development initiatives in the Guelmims province.Findings: We have three profiles based on the interviews: the active steering group, the active facilitator, and the passive actor. A qualitative analysis of the actors provides a better understanding of both than trying to standardise actors’ behaviour and thoughts with quantitative analysis tools.Implications/Novel Contribution: These studies highlight the importance of human capital in rural areas, particularly in the Saharan provinces of Morocco, like Guelmim, where it has been traditionally overlooked.

Abstract

Aim: The study’s goals were to ascertain the causes of policy implementation failure, the results of that failure on sustainability, and the solutions available for bringing that sustainability.Method: Methodologically, this study employed a quantitative systematic literature review in accordance with the procedures described by Pickering and Byrne.Findings: The systematic review of the literature confirms that issues with communication, politics, and economics are to blame for environmental policies failing to produce the desired results. These results also show how much of a growing concern the failure of environmental policies is.Implications/Novel Contribution: According to the findings, a lack of incentives to adopt environmental policies, poor communication of goals to key stakeholders, and a conflict between the roles of environmental policies and objectives focused on economic development are the main causes of the inability to achieve environmental sustainability. Because of this, policymakers must gain knowledge from these failures if they hope to lead the world to sustainable development.

Abstract

Aim: The primary goal of this research is to examine the similarities and differences between Taoist and Theravada Buddhist approaches to sitting and walking meditation in light of their potential applications in treating mental and physical illness in modern society.Method: The primary methodological strategy used to examine the central argument of this study is historiography. This study’s content analysis relies heavily on primary sources like archival materials and documents and a wide range of scholarly arguments.Findings: People’s physical and mental well-being have been shown to improve through both sitting and working meditation, even in today’s stressful, competitive, complicated, and market-oriented society. A recent explosion in popularity shows that the highest-ranking professionals and wealthiest people are practising sitting and working meditation to improve their health and productivity. It’s not just a fad sweeping the nation; it’s a worldwide phenomenon. People in countries that don’t practise Buddhism or Taoism, like those in Europe, have been innovating by meditating for the same benefits.Implications/Novel Contribution: The increasing prevalence of non-epidemic diseases as a result of mental stress highlights the relevance of this study in several ways for the modern world. Both of these seated meditation positions have been shown to have beneficial effects on stress and physical health. In addition, this leads to the simplification of all manner of mundane, real-world tasks. The results of this study can be used by academics who plan to focus their careers on studying meditation and postures.

Abstract

Aim: Clothes are more than just a means of keeping warm; they also convey meanings about the social and cultural norms to which they belong. Since ancient times, Sri Lankans have dressed in accordance with cultural norms and traditions for Buddhist religious ceremonies. Located in Kandy, a city recognised by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, the Temple of the Tooth is the subject of this investigation into a particular type of musician’s headdress.Method: The study is ethnographic in nature, with the participation of observers serving as its conceptual foundation. Scholars attended rituals held at the Temple of the Tooth, conducted interviews with musicians who performed there and analysed the results.Findings: This vital piece of the headdress has been worn in a specific manner since ancient times. The headdress can convey various meanings, including the importance of the occasion, the wearer’s glitzy personality, the depth of their hospitality, the respect they have for the Buddha, and their level of artistic skill.Implications/Novel Contribution: This study summarises the significance of the turban in Sri Lankan culture. The research familiarises the world with Sri Lankan culture.

Abstract

Aim: This paper examines the curricula and pedagogical practices of Gujarat colleges associated with the Gujarat Technical University and the National Institute of Technology, Surat, concerning the instruction of communication skills. This encompasses the vast majority of Gujarat’s engineering schools.Method: To better understand the challenges of instructing engineering students, a qualitative study was conducted in which eight English teachers from different engineering colleges in and around Surat were interviewed. To complete the research, eight English professors at different engineering schools in and around Surat, Gujarat, were contacted. These educators were chosen to represent a range of ages, levels of experience and education, and specialisations.Findings: This paper uses the study’s findings to argue that engineering curricula should incorporate several activities aimed at improving engineers’ employability. From this, we can infer that the chalk-and-talk approach to teaching engineers communication skills is ineffective. Furthermore, industry standards have increased rapidly.Implications/Novel Contribution: This research contributes to the body of literature by providing empirical evidence for the importance of fostering employability skills in one’s communication repertoire. While generalisations from this study are obviously not possible, it is safe to assume that English instructors in India’s engineering colleges face similar difficulties to those identified in this study’s sample. Second, despite efforts to improve the situation, recent engineering graduates’ lack of employability skills continues to trouble both Indian employers and graduates alike.

Abstract

Aim: This paper seeks to address the literature gap by investigating how Pride and Prejudice translators dealt with issues of conversational implicature in the novel’s dialogue.Method: Conversations selected from Pride and Prejudice chapter 10 served as the data source. The sample size was 53 different quotes. We applied cooperative principles to the study of those statements. The research methods used in this paper combine a focus group discussion (FGD) and a comparative analysis (CA).Findings: Thirty statements were found to violate cooperative principle maxims. Modulation translation was primarily used to render this speech sounds into another language. In addition to the modulation translation method, standard equivalent, amplification, reduction, and transposition translation approaches were also utilised.Implications/Novel Contribution: If translators use this case study as a guide, they will better understand which translation strategies to employ. The case study could also be investigated from a sociolinguistic or second-language learning perspective.

Abstract

Aim: Even though the project has been declared run based on the feasibility analysis results, this study assessed the mining company’s operations as prices began to drop. The POAC approach will be used throughout observing the parameter mentioned above, from planning and organisation to actuation and control.Method: Due to the positive results of the feasibility study, the project is now considered operational, and this study examined how the mining industry operates in the face of falling prices. Starting with scheduling and moving on to coordination, actuation, and management, the POAC method was used to keep the parameter under control.Findings: The results predicted that although the project has been declared to be feasibly run, it is still possible and should to re-conduct a feasibility study or planning strategy due to the changes in parameters, both technical and economic parameters, which are assumed as the basis for making plans and its makes the plan remains relevant. To remain profitable, a mining company needs to adjust to new circumstances quickly and easily, no matter how dire they may get.Implications/Novel Contribution: Comprehensive information about mine planning has been compiled as a result of this study. The findings may aid policymakers in better comprehending the system, which may lead to greater efficacy.

Abstract

Aim: This research aims to establish that clothing is a material cultural object with intangible heritage value because it signifies and expresses nuanced cultural values and social relationships.Method: The study employed the ethnographic approach to research. Ethnography is the practice of using art and science to describe people and their customs. Descriptive labels were coded into the data. Codes were assigned to each activity, event, and thuppottiya-wearing technique to facilitate comparison and pattern identification. Data reliability and validity were both increased by double-checking with other published literature.Findings: Two distinct kinds of thuppottiya have been identified. KariyaKorala was the name of the thuppottiya used by Diyawadana Nilame, the lay guardian of the Tooth Relic and the head of the service to the relic. While the dresses were nearly identical, there were noticeable differences in the colour, fabric, embellishments, and means they accessorized.Implications/Novel Contribution: Consumers and tourists who value collecting symbolic items have given the Thuppottiya new prominence because it is at the centre of ethnic identity. The author concludes by discussing the difficulties heritage regimes encounter in today’s cultural contexts and proposing solutions for the long-term security of the diverse cultural assets under their care.

Abstract

Aim: This paper aims to provide greater clarity between Church authorities and churchgoers by gaining profound insights into the lived experiences of one of the popular devotions in Cavite, Philippines.Method: This research uses a phenomenological method to describe, interpret, and reflect on the experiences of devotees who have visited the San Agustin shrine in search of signs that the miraculous image of San Agustin holds meaning for Catholic spirituality. Creswell (1998) suggests conducting in-depth interviews with six participants to achieve a multi-perspective understanding of a phenomenon. The current study followed this advice. The interviewees’ permission was also required to use their audio recordings and their raw experiences to analyse data.Findings: According to the results of this research, believers’ faith in the miraculous image of San Agustin de Tanza stems solely from their personal encounters with God. If you ask Pieris (2007), this is not a form of idolatry or animism; rather, it is cosmic religiosity.Implications/Novel Contribution: There is a need for a healthy and innovative relationship between churchgoers and church officials, and this study sheds light on some of the challenges the church faces today, like a growing number of churchgoers who are inactive in the church’s activities. This research can potentially improve communication between laypeople and religious leaders over time.

Abstract

Aim: This research aims to examine the extent to which fat shaming contributes to the development of Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) in adolescent girls.Method: Teenage girls with BDD were surveyed using a qualitative, case-study approach, with initial screening involving the use of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-V) to establish a diagnosis of BDD. The data in this study were also analyzed using a holistic Yin perspective.Findings: The data from this study shows that everyone who participated in the survey endured some form of negative bullying because of their weight, most notably from members of their own family and friends (schoolmates and playmates). Confidence, pride, self-acceptance, self-conception, social interaction, eating disorders, camouflage, and BDD are all negatively impacted for those respondents who are subjected to fat-shaming regularly.Implications/Novel Contribution: The study results imply that people should be taught to value themselves and others regardless of their size, shape, or appearance. Additionally, one should stop trying to improve themselves or others by measuring themselves against artificial benchmarks or other people.
