Abstract: 

In classical Persian literature, there are many references to the “green” sky. However, many Persian speakers today use the color blue to refer to the sky. Several researchers have discussed the status of the green color in mythological, astrological, poetic visualization, and religious beliefs of Iranians to explain this difference. Nevertheless, they have ignored the fact that this discrepancy is not limited to classical texts and still can be observed in different parts of the country and, moreover, there are similar examples in languages and cultures all around the world. This article studies the colors attributed to the sky in Persian literature drawing on linguistic relativity theory about the influence of language on color perception. I conclude that Persian speakers in the absence of a word indicating all shades of blue have associated the color of the sky with a type of green color. This, however, was not just a linguistic choice. Older generations under the influence of linguistic relativity perceived the color of the sky as a shade of green color.

Abstract: 

In different cultures and traditions, there are a variety of values that are interpreted as descriptive relativity. Each ethnic group often exaggerates its own values (whether ethical, political, social, economic or scientific) and disregards or even sometimes values other cultures. Counts. Some have considered the best explanation of this fact to be true relativism or value metaphor, and in fact one of the most important underpinnings of relativistic relativity is this cultural diversity. Both claim "the realization of cultural diversity of value" and "its implication of real and positive diversity of value and the negation of the absolute, fixed and pervasive truth of value" is the site of dispute. Reducing ethnic differences in customs, misinterpreting complex relationships and structures of cultures, resolving disputes, the possibility of errors in cultural translation of values, multiculturalism and the problem of belonging to multiple cultures and conflicts of values, and Overcoming the values of the ruling class is also one of the challenges of adopting descriptive.

Abstract: 

Einstein’s theory of relativity made many difficulties for Newtonian physics, so as it did not remain any way for keepingit but setting apart or reforming some of the most fundamental concepts such as space and time. Many thinkers believe that relativity theory made some irreparable hurts on Kant’s philosophy. However, some other thinkers, like Godel, have tried to read relativity theory in such a way that not only have no contradiction with Kant’s philosophy, but also introduce some affirmations for it. This paper casts light on Godel’s effort for reconciling relativity theory with Kant’s philosophy in the topic of ' Time'; It also contains some remarks on the point that how conception of time in relativity theory can lead us to defend Idealism. Finally, it would be suggested that for reconciling Kant’s philosophy with modern science, we should both cease his inflexibility about the process of acquiring knowledge and set apart the hypothesis of being unknowable of the thing-in-itself.

Abstract: 

Relativity of legal principles due to the changing of values and as a result of the changing of arbitrary legal principles constitutes one of the aspects of the theory of the relativity of rights. Although different communities have different understanding about the weight of values, their concepts and principles and although this disparity of ideas and at times contradictory opinions about the weight of values and their principles have caused ethics to be considered as an ultimate criterion in value systems and although following the manifestation of right as an inherent issue, the force of legal rights has enhanced, the emphasis of the Quran on the originality of right and its specifying the domain of truthful values and its reference to the nature of right and the concept of justice as one of the ethical implications, especially in phase of the tashri’ (divine legislation) immunized right from the harm of the relativity in the principles of values while accepting the relativity as an obvious choice with respect to some non-fundamental issues.

Abstract: 

We conducted this study in the Agogo Traditional Area of the Ashanti region of Ghana where there are numerous cases of conflicts between crop and animal farmers as a result of insufficient pasture for livestock, especially during the dry seasons. This has drawn the attention of various stakeholders in agriculture to the need for supplement feed through pasture establishment. The study examines farmers’ perception and the financial viability of pasture establishment for small ruminant production. The specific objectives of the study are as follow: to identify the cost and returns for the establishment of an acre of pasture, to assess the financial viability of pasture establishment on ‘cut and sell’ basis, to investigate farmers’ perception of pasture establishment for cattle production, to conduct a SWOT analysis of the establishment of pasture in Agogo. The study purports to analyze in detail, farmers' perceptions about the nature of the proposed 'Fodder Bank' policy and its likely effect on crop and livestock production, and whether the proposed policy could generate adequate monetary returns to induce its adoption at the farm level. The study seeks to provide evidence in support of SDG goals 2 (Zero hunger) and 12 (Responsible consumption and production) of the 2030 agenda for sustainable development. To the authors' best of knowledge, this is envisage to provide valuable information to support policy initiatives intended to tackle the root cause of farmer-herder conflicts. The Asante Akim North Municipal is one of the 27 administrative Districts in the Ashanti Region. Its capital is Konongo- Odumasi. The population for this study comprises livestock and crop farmers in Agogo. Asante Akim North Municipal was purposively selected for the study because it is noted for its agrarian abilities and massive production of food in the Ashanti region. The multi stage sampling was employed in this study. At the first stage, Asante Agogo traditional area was selected purposively due to the fact that majority of the inhabitants engage in agricultural activities (GSS 2010). At the second stage, three communities in Agogo namely, Hwidiem, Ananekrom and Bebuso were selected purposively. At the third stage, quota sampling was used to obtain a specific number of farmers from each of the three communities to sum up to 150 respondents as shown in table. Simple random sampling technique was then used to engage the selected farmers in these communities. A sample size of 150 respondents were obtained using the Slovin’s formulae which is a scientific method of obtaining the sample size for a given population. Structured questionnaires consisting of open and close ended questions were used to gather primary data from respondents through face-to-face interviews. Interviews were conducted using the local dialect mostly to enhance communication and to clear all language barriers but English was used where the respondents could give accurate answers in English Language. Data per the questionnaires from respondents were concerning their perception of pasture establishment and the assessment of the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of pasture establishment. Secondary data was sought from books, journals, dissertations and the internet. Useful and relevant information on the appropriate materials and their costs for establishing pasture was also obtained from the Agogo MoFA office, and the KNUST Department of Animal Science. Descriptive statistics such as percentages, tables and means were used to analyze the socio-economic characteristics of respondents. It was revealed in the study that majority of crop farmers have had their crops destroyed by ruminants especially cattle at least once. Additionally, the study showed that pasture establishment is one way through which crop farms destruction by livestock can be prevented as about 99% of farmers responded in the affirmative. The results for the financial viability of the venture under the assumptions used gave relevant results with BCR of 1.18 and NPV of GHC 3,160. The Internal Rate Return of the venture is estimated at 40.1% and a Pay Back period of 2.61 years. Therefore, it will be economically prudent for investors to commit resources towards establishing pasture. The perception index for commercial, economic and financial concerns of pasture establishment was 3.7 which is skewed toward agree. The statement that had the highest positive perception index was about the fact that pasture establishment will increase the quality of meat. This implies that respondents perceive that the commercial, economic and financial results of pasture establishment will be positive. The perception index for the social category was 3.66. The statement with the highest positive assertion by respondents is the fact that pasture establishment will help control the movement of animals. The perception index of 3.66 which is skewed towards agree means that pasture establishment will attract the support from the community and also bring more benefits to the society. In the category of technical concerns of pasture establishment, the overall perception index for this category is 3.15, which means that the respondents perceive they have a fair technical know- how concerning pasture establishment even though the venture requires technical know-how. In the category of institutional concerns, support and involvement in pasture establishment, the statement with the highest perception index is that MoFA will support farmers with the necessary resources in its capacity. With reference to the chi-square test, the study can conclude that there is a significant relationship between the type of farmer and the perception that support can be drawn from farmer-based associations, and the perception that pasture establishment will increase livestock production as well as the general sales of farmers. Lastly, the study revealed that there is a significant relationship between the educational background of the farmer and the perception that it is not difficult to select planting materials for pasture establishment. Farmers in Asante Akim Agogo should adopt the establishment of pasture since it is financially viable. The establishment of pasture in Asante Akim Agogo should be encouraged since it has the potency to reduce the farmer - herder conflicts and ensure food security. For successful pasture establishment, technical know-how is essential.

Abstract: 

Rejecting metaphysical realism (MR) is a basic element in Putnam's Philosophy. He introduces two arguments against MR: Model-theoretic (MT) and brain-in-vat (BIV). However, according to some scholars and commentators who work on Putnam's Philosophy, the phenomenon of conceptual relativity, as introduced by Putnam in some of his books, is another argument by which MR is rejected. This Phenomenon is a state in which two sentences that are at face value incompatible could be consistently true. However, there is not any explicit and complete formulation of this argument in the writings of Putnam and his commentators. In this paper, first we will formulate a version of conceptual relativity against MR. According to our version, Putnam ask the metaphysical realist to explain this phenomenon. Then we will show that this argument is not independent of MT and BIV. Therefore, the phenomenon of conceptual relativity could be an argument against MR only of we accept either MT or BIV. Furthermore, any objection to MT and BIV will weaken the argument from conceptual relativity against MR.

Abstract: 

A survey from an outsider view at the jurisprudence indicates that the so called term of Islamic Terrorism has been globally promoted based on two approaches. First, terrorism is based on belief and attitude of some of the Muslims. Second, the Western countries have labeled some Muslims with the title of Islamic Terrorism. Apparently, they consider terrorism as a threat against security and democracy; however, they use this label as an instrument in their leadership of the world. But looking at Jurisprudence from inside shows that terrorist acts apart from the thinking behind them or the motivation to globalize it, is considered as criminal and condemned acts; because the main element of Jihad is face to face fighting and respecting its rules and not to surprised attacks and killing the innocent people and properties. However, there is no an independent title for terrorist acts; although due to its implications it is identical to rebellion and belligerence.

Abstract: 

In this work, the gravitational collapse of a spherically symmetric null shell with the flat interior and a charged Vaidya exterior spacetimes is studied. There is no gravitational impulsive wave present on the null hypersurface which is shear-free and contracting. It follows that there is a critical radius at which the shell bounces and starts expanding.

Abstract: 

Background and Objective: Human beings have different abilities. One of these abilities is creativity. Problem solving and creativity are at the highest level of human cognitive activity and are considered to be the most valuable culprits and educational goals. Creativity is one of the most important factors that affects educational adaptation and means unifying all human activities. Undoubtedly, the main goal of educational institutions is to create problem-solving ability and creativity in students. The purpose of this study was to explain the relationship between creativity and educational adaptability of students by mediating academic motivation. Research method: In order to reach the goal of research, 542 students were selected from which 268 non-respondents and 274 boys were enrolled in high schools in Rabat Karim in the academic year of 97-96. Sampling method was selected in a multi-stage random cluster sampling. Participants included 268 girls and 274 boys, questionnaires, Abedi's creativity (1993), and Baccocrillac's academic compatibility (1989), Valerand et al. (1992). The research method was descriptive-correlational and analytical of structural equation type. In order to analyze the data, structural equation modeling using Amos software was used. Conclusion: The findings of this study showed that the structural model of the relationship between creativity and academic adjustment with the mediation of academic motivation was fitted with the collected data. Direct effect of creativity on educational adjustment was significant. In the indirect effect of creativity and academic motivation and its dimensions, creativity with a positive correlation was significant. Also, the relationship between internal motivation and impulsivity with academic adjustment was significant, but the relationship between external educational motivation and academic adjustment was non-significant. The relation between non-inductive and non-inductive was significant.
