This book explores the transformation of Soviet Ukraine into an independent state. It finds that state building is an integral part of the transition process, as much as democratization and the establishment of a market economy.
This study explores the impact of entrepreneurship education in the university on student's entrepreneurial behaviour, in terms of their entrepreneurial attitudes and start-up intention. The paper aims to investigate the perceived influence that various entrepreneurship education courses have had on third-year undergraduate students from business and non-business study programs in University Malaysia Sabah. The questionnaires were distributed via Google Forms, which gathers students' perspectives on their entrepreneurial attitudes (achievement, innovation, personal control and self-esteem), and start-up intention. The results of chi-squared test revealed that innovation, personal control and self-esteem are the most influential impacts of entrepreneurship education among undergraduate students. In addition, the results of One-Way ANOVA showed significant differences among types of student's degree programs in terms of their achievement, innovation, external support and start-up intention. The study also provides qualitative insights from students' perspectives about the challenges that they think could hinder students to start a business. This study hopes to contribute to the university and other institutions of higher learning in Malaysia in preparing the appropriate entrepreneurial education approach for the students towards materialising the government agenda to become 'Entrepreneurial Nation' by 2030.
In the paper, from a systematic analysis of the literary production of Brazilian Indigenous writers, we will argue that, since the middle of XXs, Brazilian Indian peoples start to affirm and use the public sphere, in terms of activism, militancy and engagement, as the strategy and the place par excellence to the thematization of national Indian condition, as reaction to processes of social-economic expansion and political-cultural negation which put in check their own existence, refusing also the technocratic paternalism and dependent responsibility imposed to them. With the purpose of consolidating themselves as active public-political subjects, they opted for school education and for the appropriation of epistemological tolls and digital techniques which allow them to insert in the national socialization, to modernize politically, culturally and epistemologically in order to streamline a perspective of criticism regarding our conservative modernization from the internal communitarian self-organization and the construction of a network of collaboration among the indigenous nations. This posture leads to the deconstruction of the image cultural and normatively produced in terms of colonization, of a savage, rude and barbarous Indian, restricted to the more far corner of forest, incapable of civilization; and, in its place, it is consolidated exactly the role of the socialized Indian, in the full capability of political citizenship, producing and publicizing the own knowledge, culture and art. From the appropriation of school education and of these epistemological-digital tools and techniques we go, therefore, to an activist, militant and engaged posture in the public, political and cultural sphere, by means of the correlation of Indian Movement and Indian literature, in which the promotion of ethnic-anthropological singularity is in the basis of the criticism to modernity constituted and performed by Indian peoples, their intellectuals and writers.

The article is devoted to the current problem of sociocultural transformation of modern domestic education. Based on an analysis of reality, its aggressive social agenda, the tendency towards the dominance of irrational thinking against the backdrop of a decrease in critical perception and internality, the author confirmed the idea accepted in the scientific community about the transition of society into a certain phase of an unstable state. Previously projected system characteristics of the global society demonstrate failure, axiological assessment of Western civilization as universal has exhausted itself, humanity is on a civilizational turn. Faced with the prob-lem of conceptual cultural nihilism, Russia is once again rethinking its own civilizational path of development, searching for meanings, correlating traditions and innovations. The primary role in this process is assigned to the phenomenon of education as an imperative of spiritual formation of society. Based on a comparative anal-ysis of the Soviet and post-Soviet education systems, the article concludes that the latter, which represents a permanent process of change, not only did not resolve the contradictions of the Soviet socially oriented model of education, but even more served to artificially separate the meaning of education from the idea of develop-ment our civilization. Considering reform as a semantic construct, including analysis of the existing situation, clear goals and objectives, measures adequate to the situation and the system of results assessment correlat-ing with them, the author summarizes that the socio-cultural transformation of modern domestic education should be associated with the traditions of Russian society, and the leading problematic of its concept should be anthropological – as posing the question of the formed person.
Greek Cypriots, Turkish Cypriots, Maronites, Latins, and Armenians have been the primary historical communities that make up the multicultural landscape of Cyprus. However, the continuing conflict between the Greek and Turkish Cypriots has geographically, socially and psychologically segregated these communities, while the influx of economic migrants, especially after Cyprus's accession to the EU in 2004, has, in turn, contributed to Cyprus's challenges, arising from multiculturalism, in an altogether different perspective
Washington has had an inheritance or estate tax since 1901. The United States has had an estate tax in place since 1916. Initiative 920, which would have repealed Washington's estate tax in November 2006, was resoundingly defeated by the people, 62% to 38%. Our estate tax raises over $100 million annually, on average.
