Paper Title :: Correlation between domestic violence and suicidal thoughts and behaviors in adolescents
Author Name :: Valbona UKA
Country :: Kosovo
Page Number :: 01-03
Suicides in Kosovo have been present even in the pre-war years, but this phenomenon of suicide in our country has gained a lot of momentum especially in the post-war years. This reality is also shown by the latest statistics presented by the respective Institutions which provide a detailed overview of suicide attempts and suicides in the recent years.
The basic idea of this empirical research is to obtain source information from respondents who have experienced or are experiencing domestic violence, or are witnessing domestic violence, and the likelihood of suicidal thoughts and behaviors that adolescents may encounter. The purpose of this study is to determine if adolescents experiencing domestic violence are more prone to be attacked by suicidal thoughts and behaviors.
The sample of this research included 200 adolescents in 10th and 11th grades, aged 15, 16, 17 and 18, belonging to three high schools in Pristine. The measuring instruments used with adolescent students are standardized and they are; Qualitative Domestic Violence Questionnaire and Suicidal thoughts and behaviors questionnaire. SPSS software was used for data analysis. The Pearson correlation coefficient was used. The Cranach’s alpha reliability test for the DoAdolescents reported that 55% of them experienced domestic violence, while 23% of them were present when the violence was committed and 27% of them were neither present nor a victim of domestic violence. Adolescents reported having a psychological problem during their involvement in violence. The results through correlation analysis have shown that there is a close relationship between domestic violence and the expression of suicidal thoughts and behaviors of young Kosovars. Domestic violence reported by adolescents was statistically significant in relation to suicidal thoughts and behavior.
On the basis of the research we conclude: that exposure to violence and violence perpetrated against adolescents in the home can cause suicidal thoughts and behaviors in adolescents.
In particular, this study makes recommendations for setting up specific prevention programs for the prevention of domestic violence and suicide prevention.
Keywords: correlation, adolescent, domestic violence, suicidal thoughts and behavior.

Paper Title :: Constraints in Using Regional School Operational Assistance Funds at the Vocational High School in East Kalimantan (Study in SMK Negeri 8 Samarinda)
Author Name :: Erna Rawaty Sinaga || Afif Ruchaemi || Mursalim
Country :: Indonesia
Page Number :: 09-18
This study focused on the constraint in using regional school operational assistance funds at vocational high schools in East Kalimantan. The sub-focus of the research is the management of the allocation of regional school operational assistance funds to fulfill eight national education standards and include procedures for acceptance of use and reporting in vocational high schools in East Kalimantan. This research used CIPP (Context, Input, Process, and Product). This research was conducted at SMK (Vocational High School) 8 Samarinda. The research findings were related to the management and the implementation of regional school operational assistance funds for eight national education standards. Based on the research findings inSMK 8 Samarinda, the management and implementation of regional school operational assistance funds were proper. However, the application was still constrained by the number of funds and policies applied in using regional school operational assistance funds.

Paper Title :: The Influence of Enochean Narrative on the Development of Medieval Islamic Apocalyptic Literature: approximations
Author Name :: Filipe de Oliveira Guimarães
Country :: Brazil
Page Number :: 34-42
Until the fourth century AD, it was common among Christians to read the pseudepigraptive book of I Enoch. The official position in Western Christianity, which decoded I Enoch's writing from the list of useful literature to Christian religiosity, was given at the Council of Laodicea (4th century) which stated that the only names of angels recognized as sacred would be that of Michael, Gabriel and Raphael, removing I Enoque (who quotes several names of angels) from the West Christian exegetical scenario for centuries. Among the Jews literature was quite influential until the end of the first century Council of Jamnia, which considered only as sacred writings for religion those produced on the borders of the Holy Land in the Hebrew language, marginalizing I Enoque originally written in Aramaic. However, the same did not happen in some regions of the East where Christianity continued to use the book of I Enoque. Starting from the prism that Islam is a monotheistic religion that in its birth exchanged intensely with Judeo-Christian literatures, the article points to a plausible influence of the book of I Enoque in the construction of the Islamic apocalyptic taking as comparative basis the book The Scale of Mohammed. The article is bibliographic in nature and is structured on the comparative method, aiming to present narratological confluences between the writings.

Paper Title :: Gandhian Philosophy and kinetics of Sattva Guna in ‘Waiting for the Mahatma’
Author Name :: Dr. Indu Goyal
Country :: India
Page Number :: 49-53
R.K.Narayan expresses in his novels the Indian ethos. Though he writes in English language, he writes of India, Indian culture, Indian people, Indian family and Hindu Mythology. He talks of social, economic and religious life in India. Narayan‟s novels carry within them explicit and implicit moral values and lay great emphasis on the intrinsic good nature of human beings. In his writings, goodness ultimately triumphs over evil. Deep belief in an ethical and principled value system characterises his novels and their characters. His heroes portray an evolving consciousness, which may begin with a note of uncertainty, turmoil and loneliness, but ends up in certainty, peace and fullness. Combined with this, there is a deep belief in the positive features of the traditional Hindu faith in many of his novels. These attributes have been explored by many researchers, but have not been explicitly classified under the signifying Sattva Guna. This paper explores precisely the Sattva Guna in the main character of Narayan‟s novel „Waiting for the Mahatma.

Paper Title :: Contravening- caste Initiation: A question of identity
Author Name :: Dr. Amandeep
Country :: India
Page Number :: 54-58
The Dalit movements arose in the early years of the 20th century independently in various parts of the country. Their activities ranged from awakening the Dalits to their human rights to demanding concessions from the government for amelioration of their socio-economic condition. Some of them also strove to do away with evil customs and traditions prevailing among them so that they could claim higher ritual status in the society. As yet there was no explicit articulation against the caste system. Some tried to claim a superior lineage for themselves and strove to revive their lost heritage. But some directly challenged the caste structure and rebelled against it with their raw force. These movements together contributed to the creation of consciousness of human rights among the Dalits and inspired many of them to work for ameliorating their lives. In this paper an attempt is made to look at the differential developments of dalit communities. The paper deals with the history of caste system by referring Buddhism, Bhakti movement and pre Amebdkar movements. It also analyses different trends in Caste initiation and how the quest for one‟s identity is a prime mover in the struggle for social equality and justice. And one cannot gain justice and freedom without struggle and mobilization.
