ADORNOGRAPHY AS ECOLOGICAL ARCHIVE AND CULTURAL NARRATIVE: HIMALAYAN TRIBAL ORNAMENTATION, SUSTAINABILITY, AND GENDERED AGENCY
type: item
description: The primary aim of this paper is to introduce Adornography as a newly coined concept within the theoretical framework for understanding body ornamentation, especially jewellery worn by Himalayan tribal communities as ecological and cultural texts that embody living traditions. Traditionally, Adornment Studies have primarily concentrated on aesthetic or anthropological aspects. Adornography shifts the focus to examining jewellery as a repository of ecological knowledge, gendered embodiment, and sustainable lifestyles. This perspective incorporates insights from fields such as ethnography, environmental humanities, feminist material culture theory, and literary analysis to present jewellery as both wearable art and performative ecological record. Moreover, the semiotic analysis underscores that ornaments can be seen as wearable genealogies and ecological record-keeping devices. This paper further examines the emergence and significance of eco-friendly jewellery within India's contemporary socio-cultural context, especially in the Himalayan region, highlighting how jewellery plays a role in shaping identity. Traditionally, it has been associated with wealth, heritage, and aesthetics. However, it can be argued that jewellery is currently experiencing a paradigm shift where sustainability and social responsibility are now central to its production and consumption. The present study explores Adornography, which is defined as well as established as an interdisciplinary, future-oriented framework, making it possible to lay a foundation for sustainable cultural preservation in the Himalayan socio-cultural context.

Administrative Culture and Citizen Trust: Comparative Analysis of U.S.–Denmark disparities and their Implications for India
type: item
description: Administrative ethics and political culture are pivotal in shaping the quality of governance within democratic systems. This research paper presents a comparative analysis of administrative ethics in Denmark and the USA, employing indicators such as the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) and levels of public trust. The study further extends this analysis to include India. Denmark is recognized as a global leader, characterized by high integrity and strong public confidence. Denmark is the only country in the world to have a data ethics council and the first country to establish science ethics committees and later the Ethical Council. In contrast, the USA demonstrates moderate ethical robustness, with notable concerns regarding political financing. However, India faces more significant challenges related to corruption and institutional enforcement. The inclusion of India provides a contrast between mature Western democracies and a large developing democracy, thereby highlighting differing capacities and reform trajectories. Through an examination of these contrasting democracies, the study identifies institutional trust, historical and administrative cultural factors that influence ethical behaviour among administrators and politicians. The discussion subsequently extends these comparative insights to the Indian context, particularly in relation to the Second Administrative Reforms Commission’s recommendations on ethics in governance. The central thesis posited is that administrative ethics are profoundly shaped by the interplay between institutional design, civic culture and mechanisms of accountability. Building on these findings, the paper also emphasizes the potential of greater decentralization to reduce hierarchical corruption and the role of AI-based systems for fraud detection and risk mapping to strengthen oversight in public administration. These reform directions align with global best practices while addressing India’s systemic vulnerabilities. The paper …

type: item
description: There is no doubt that protecting the insolvent debtor is of great importance in economic life, as it helps prevent commercial enterprises from collapsing. To that end, legislation has been enacted that allows the preparation of rescue plans as soon as early signs of economic difficulty appear. The Saudi Bankruptcy Law sets out the procedures to be followed for both creditor and debtor, and it lays down practical mechanisms that clearly safeguard the debtor’s rights, attaching multiple legal effects that attest to the seriousness of this protection. Among these mechanisms is closing off avenues by which creditors might employ lesion (Ghabn) against the debtor in any of the bankruptcy procedures. This paper seeks to shed light on that mechanism.

type: item
description: There is no doubt that protecting the insolvent debtor is a matter of considerable importance in the economic sphere, insofar as it helps to prevent commercial undertakings from collapsing. To this end, legislation has been enacted that allows the preparation of rescue plans as soon as early signs of economic difficulty appear in such enterprises. The Saudi Bankruptcy Law sets out the procedures to be followed for both creditor and debtor, and it establishes practical means by which the debtor’s rights are clearly safeguarded, attaching multiple effects that attest to the seriousness with which these protections are pursued. Among these means is the requirement that any person involved in a bankruptcy matter comply with formal, procedural filings designed to protect -and alert- the debtor. This study seeks to shed light on that mechanism.

PROTECTING THE DEBTOR BY INFORMING THEM OF LITIGATION RULES AND PROCEDURES UNDER THE SAUDI BANKRUPTCY LAW: AN ANALYTICAL STUDY
type: item
description: This study examines the mandatory termination of administrative contracts for insolvency in light of the Saudi Government Tenders and Procurement Law (GTPL). Adopting an analytical method, the paper is structured into an introduction, two chapters, and a conclusion. Chapter One defines the core terms; Chapter Two analyzes the legal nature of mandatory termination for insolvency and its conditions. The study concludes, inter alia, that the insolvency of the contractor - triggering contract termination - must be established by a final court judgment, as evidenced by the Saudi legislator’s phrase (insolvency is established), and that the administration’s power to terminate in this case is a constrained (bound) power. Recommendations include distinguishing between termination that is penal (where the contractor’s fault, fraud, or deceit is present) and termination justified by public interest (where insolvency arises without the contractor’s fault). (GTPL, Royal Decree No. M/128, 13/11/1440; Implementing Regulations, Ministerial Decision No. 3479, 11/08/1441).

The purpose of this article is to determine the role of entrepreneurial activity in many areas of entrepreneurial activity and in modern social technology of material production of the life of society. The main method of developing entrepreneurial activity in the new Uzbekistan is a general scientific ethical analysis, with the help of which the author considers the moral standards of the individual in the practice of entrepreneurial activity. Entrepreneurship, by its very nature, is a mass instrument of honesty, responsibility, empathy and justice, and through entrepreneurial activity, an entrepreneurial culture is acquired. The study of entrepreneurial activity is studied through social sciences, and its relevance does not cause the slightest doubt among representatives of the social sphere. This is because this type of activity directly covers interpersonal relationships and communications.

REVISITING AQUINAS’ NATURAL LAW IN POSTMODERN PHILOSOPHY OF THOUGHT
type: item
description: This study described the postmodern interpretation of Values and Norms in the new generation. The researchers aimed to defend against their interpretation because of values and norms are important factors in man’s life. To do this paper, the researchers employed the intellectual inquiry on the concept of St. Thomas Aquinas’s Natural Law which is the foundation of his discussion on ethics. While this study served to advance the idea about the contemporary relevance of an ethics of virtue by way of its significantly more detailed explication of morality, the researchers concluded that in order to become a morally upright human person, there’s a need to give a clear emphasis the idea of defense of values and norms which is so significant in studying St. Thomas Aquinas's divine law.

INTERNSHIP-TO-EMPLOYMENT PIPELINE: HOW INTERNSHIP STRUCTURE PREDICTS LONG-TERM RETENTION IN THE HOTEL INDUSTRY
type: item
description: Internships are a vital bridge between academic preparation and professional employment, especially within the fast-paced hotel industry. Effective internship and training experiences—paired with strong intern motivation—lead to higher satisfaction, stronger skill readiness, deeper organizational loyalty, and ultimately, improved long-term retention. This study examines how the design and quality of internship programs influence interns’ transition into full-time hotel careers. Using mixed methods data from hotel interns, training managers, and HR professionals, the research evaluates key components such as supervision quality, task relevance, training duration, feedback systems, institutional support, and motivational drivers. Findings reveal that well-structured internships with clear objectives, consistent mentorship, meaningful hands-on tasks, and visible career development pathways significantly enhance the likelihood of post-internship employment and sustained retention in the hotel sector. In contrast, poorly planned or weakly supervised internships reduce motivation, create disengagement, and contribute to higher turnover. Overall, the study highlights the need to redesign internship models not only as academic requirements but as strategic talent-development pipelines that align motivational factors with organizational workforce needs. Recommendations are provided for hospitality institutions and industry employers to strengthen internship systems, support intern motivation, and build a more committed and long-lasting hospitality workforce.

GOVERNING INVISIBLE ACTORS - A CRITICAL EVALUATION OF INDIA’S REGULATORY VACUUM IN AI-INDUCED CRIMES
type: item
description: Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed the nature of crime globally, enabling new forms of digital impersonation, algorithmic manipulation, predictive profiling, and autonomous cyber-attacks. In India, the adoption of AI by both legitimate sectors and malicious actors has accelerated rapidly, yet the regulatory landscape remains fragmented, technologically outdated, and normatively incomplete. This paper critically evaluates the emerging phenomenon of AI-induced crimes within the Indian context, with a particular focus on the deepening regulatory vacuum. Drawing upon contemporary scholarship, comparative regulatory models, and evolving forms of cyber-criminal behavior, the analysis demonstrates that Indian law lacks clear statutory provisions, institutional capacities, and doctrinal clarity for addressing harms created by non-human, autonomous, or semi-autonomous digital agents. The paper argues that India requires a paradigm shift, from a human-centric responsibility model to a techno-normative framework capable of attributing liability, regulating AI development, and preventing abuse. Through a doctrinal and socio-legal examination, this study outlines conceptual challenges, identifies gaps in the Information Technology Act, 2000, and highlights the urgency of designing a future-ready governance architecture for AI-induced criminality.

BLOCKING THE MEANS TO EVIL (SADD AL-DHARA’I) AND ITS EFFECT ON PRESERVING THE ENVIRONMENTAL SYSTEM IN THE KINGDOM OF SAUDI ARABIA
type: item
description: This academic study addresses the jurisprudential and legislative dilemma concerning how to utilize the principle of “Blocking the Means to Evil (Sadd al-Dhara’i)” as an effective fundamental tool within the legal system for environmental protection and sustainability. While many actions related to resource utilization (such as grazing or land exploitation) are fundamentally permissible, the unrestricted practice of these actions may, often and predominantly, lead to a significant and recognized environmental detriment. This study presents the principle of “Sadd al-Dhara’i” as the foundational jurisprudential framework that legitimizes the imposition of regulatory restrictions aimed at preempting the cause of corruption and averting environmental harm before it occurs. Utilizing the descriptive-analytical methodology, the research deconstructs and analyzes the technical and linguistic concept of the rule of “Sadd al-Dhara’i,” clarifying its three jurisprudential categories and the ruling for each. This is conducted in parallel with grounding the technical and linguistic concepts of the “Environment” and defining its natural and built components. The research then shifts to the applied aspect, inductively examining and analyzing practical applications of this rule within the texts of the operative environmental regulations in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The analysis focuses on three axes, regulating grazing, protecting national parks, and controlling the exploitation of vegetation cover lands.

PROTECTING THE DEBTOR BY MEANS OF SETTLEMENT IN THE PREVENTIVE SETTLEMENT AND FINANCIAL RESTRUCTURING PROCEDURES UNDER THE SAUDI BANKRUPTCY LAW (AN ANALYTICAL STUDY)
type: item
description: There is no doubt that protecting the insolvent debtor is a matter of great importance in the economic sphere, as it helps prevent enterprises from collapsing. Accordingly, legislation has been enacted to allow the preparation of rescue plans as soon as early signs of economic difficulty appear in commercial undertakings. The Saudi Bankruptcy Law lays down procedures applicable to both creditor and debtor and introduces practical mechanisms that clearly safeguard the debtor’s rights, attaching multiple legal effects that signal the legislator’s seriousness in giving effect to such protection. Among these mechanisms is enabling settlement (ṣulḥ) within the preventive settlement and financial restructuring procedures, this study highlights that mechanism.

MANDATORY TERMINATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE CONTRACTS DUE TO INSOLVENCY IN LIGHT OF THE SAUDI GOVERNMENT TENDERS AND PROCUREMENT LAW
type: item
description: This study examines the mandatory termination of administrative contracts for insolvency in light of the Saudi Government Tenders and Procurement Law (GTPL). Adopting an analytical method, the paper is structured into an introduction, two chapters, and a conclusion. Its one context defines the core terms; and other context analyzes the legal nature of mandatory termination for insolvency and its conditions. The study concludes, inter alia, that the insolvency of the contractor, triggering contract termination - must be established by a final court judgment, as evidenced by the Saudi legislator’s phrase (insolvency is established), and that the administration’s power to terminate in this case is a constrained (bound) power. Recommendations include distinguishing between termination that is penal (where the contractor’s fault, fraud, or deceit is present) and termination justified by public interest (where insolvency arises without the contractor’s fault). (GTPL, Royal Decree No. M/128, 13/11/1440; Implementing Regulations, Ministerial Decision No. 3479, 11/08/1441).

EVALUATING CARNIVAL CALABAR AS CATALYST FOR DIFFUSION OF INDIGENOUS SOCIO-CULTURAL VALUES SYSTEM IN CALABAR, NIGERIA
type: item
description: Carnival Calabar is one of the most prominent socio-cultural activities in Nigeria, attracting participants and visitors from across the globe. This study evaluates the role of Carnival Calabar as a catalyst for the diffusion of indigenous socio-cultural values in Calabar, Cross River State. Data were collected through questionnaires, checklists, and focus group discussions in the study area. Multinomial logistic regression was employed to test the stated hypotheses. Findings revealed a substantial influence of tourists’ socio-cultural values on the indigenous population, as locals exhibited a preference for external cultural practices over their own. This preference negatively affected indigenous traditions, particularly dance, music, food, and social lifestyles. Statistical analysis further corroborated these results, showing that art and music, food, and social lifestyle were the most influential components shaping cultural changes. More, so Cultural diffusion through Carnival Calabar significantly influences indigenous socio cultural values, as cultural exchange fosters interaction between locals and foreigners while shifting value systems gradually reshape traditional beliefs, norms, and lifestyles, especially in areas such as dance, music, and entertainment. The study underscores the global implications of tourism-driven cultural transformation and emphasizes the urgent need to preserve and promote indigenous socio-cultural values amidst increasing globalization and tourism development.

TOWARDS A CHILD-CENTERED JUSTICE SYSTEM - THE NORMATIVE AND PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS OF LEGAL EDUCATION IN PROMOTING FAMILY RIGHTS AND EMPOWERMENT
type: item
description: Over the last few decades, the global shift towards “child friendly” or rather “child centered” justice has focused on the need to value children’s rights, agency, and family contexts within the legal system. The actualization of this shift relies not only on legislative changes and institutional innovations, but the impact of legal education. If legal practitioners were educated and children and families were empowered then the justice system would shift towards being more “child-centered”, In this instance, legal education would have to be directly concerned with the empowerment of families, children, and legal actors, as the only way to shift the normative agenda of justice is to translate it into lived empowerment. The paper identifies and discusses the core elements of this to be legal education, the teaching of family rights, & implications that derive from that. The interface that family rights provide is the unique conduit through which legal education might address the chasm that exists between formal rights and actual empowerment, particularly in support of children’s rights. Some of the key challenges in this regard, which have been directed towards law schools, include continuing professional education, and community legal literacy initiatives.

LIMITING THE PERMISSIBLE (TAQYID AL-MUBAH) AND ITS EFFECT ON ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION: AN APPLIED STUDY ON ENVIRONMENTAL SYSTEMS IN THE KINGDOM OF SAUDI ARABIA
type: item
description: This study addresses the prominent jurisprudential dilemma between the principle that "the fundamental rule regarding things is permissibility" (Al-Asl fi Al-Ashyaa’ Al-Ibahah) as an established rule in Islamic legislation, and the contemporary necessity of imposing regulatory restrictions for environmental protection. The study presents the rule of "Limiting the Permissible (Taqyid al-Mubah)" as the theoretical framework that resolves this tension, demonstrating that modern environmental regulations do not contradict the higher objectives (Maqasid) of Sharia but rather activate its supreme principles. Employing the descriptive-analytical and inductive methodologies, the research analyzes the technical concept of the rule and its application controls. Subsequently, it inductively examines its practical applications in three main areas within the Saudi Environmental System: regulating land ownership in protected areas, regulating the exploitation of natural resources, and regulating the hunting of wildlife. The study concludes that these regulations do not represent a departure from the rulings of Sharia but are, in fact, an authentic legal application of the ruler's authority (Wali al-Amr) to limit the permissible in order to realize the public interest (Maslaha Amma) embodied in preserving and sustaining the ecological system.

BEYOND CUSTODY - SOCIO-LEGAL IMPACTS OF PARENTAL DIVORCE ON CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS IN INDIA
type: item
description: Divorce, though a growing social reality in contemporary India, remains an area of complex emotional and legal navigation, particularly when it involves Children with Special Needs (CWSN). While Indian family law primarily orients custody and guardianship decisions around the principle of the child’s “welfare”, the legal and social discourse seldom addresses how disability alters this welfare equation. This study examines the intersection of family law, disability rights, and social welfare frameworks to highlight the multifaceted consequences of divorce for CWSN. The paper argues that focusing narrowly on custody outcomes overlooks the broader socio-legal ecosystem that determines the child’s long-term well-being. Children with physical, intellectual, or developmental disabilities face unique vulnerabilities that are often compounded by parental separation, ranging from emotional instability and disrupted caregiving to financial insecurity and institutional neglect. Using a multidisciplinary lens, the research explores how existing legal mechanisms under the Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act (1956), Guardians and Wards Act (1890), & Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act (2016) fail to sufficiently integrate the principle of disability-sensitive care into custody and guardianship determinations. Through a review of rulings, statutory frameworks, and sociological literature, the study identifies a recurring pattern of judicial inconsistency and limited recognition of specialized caregiving needs. Mothers, often the primary caregivers, face compounded gendered burdens of economic strain and emotional labor, while fathers’ financial responsibilities are inconsistently defined. Incorporating comparative perspectives from Australia and France, the paper highlights progressive approaches that India can adapt. Australia’s Family Law Act (1975) emphasizes shared parental responsibility within a framework that recognizes children’s developmental and psychological needs, …

IMPACT ASSESSMENT OF JEEVAN JYOTI BIMA YOJNA AND SURAKSHA BIMA YOJNA MICROINSURANCE POLICIES AMONG LOWER INCOME POPULATIONS IN INDIA
type: item
description: Microinsurance refers to a variety of insurance products available for low-income individuals or households with low savings, offering protection for smaller assets as well as coverage against risks like illness, accidents, or death. The study is based on the impact assessment and claim effectiveness of Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana (PMJJBY) and Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana (PMSBY) among Lower Income populations. Multi linear regression and one sample T test research techniques have been used in order to make inferences and draw conclusion. The regression results highlight that both PMJJBY and PMSBY play a positive role in improving the savings potential of lower income groups. The moderate correlation (R = 0.591) suggests that while these schemes do contribute to building savings, they are not the only factors. Other economic and social factors—such as employment stability, household income, access to financial services, and expenditure patterns—are also likely to influence savings behavior. The results show that both PMJJBY and PMSBY have effective claim processes. Respondents perceive that claims under these schemes are generally processed well, which reflects positively on the government’s effort to build trust in low-cost insurance programs. The fact that both schemes were found to be effective suggests that the claim settlement mechanism is functioning as intended and that beneficiaries recognize its usefulness. In conclusion, PMJJBY and PMSBY have the potential to provide meaningful financial protection to lower-income households. However, their full effectiveness depends on addressing gaps in impact and claim efficiency. Focused improvements, combined with policy support and regular monitoring, can strengthen these schemes and enhance their impact on social security. The study highlights that targeted efforts toward education, financial literacy, and customised interventions for vulnerable populations can transform these insurance programs i…

EXPLAINABLE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FOR SME FINANCIAL RESILIENCE: AN INTEGRATED SIGNALLING FRAMEWORK FROM UTTAR PRADESH
type: item
description: Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) constitute a crucial segment of Uttar Pradesh’s economic ecosystem, yet they often operate under significant financial uncertainty. This study investigates how Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) can strengthen financial forecasting practices within these enterprises by offering transparent, data-driven insights. Drawing on responses from 325 SMEs across major industrial clusters, the research employed rigorous reliability assessments and descriptive analyses to evaluate the performance and relevance of XAI-based tools in predicting financial health. The results demonstrate that the integration of XAI meaningfully enhances the overall quality of financial decision-making. By providing clear justifications for its predictions, XAI improves stakeholder confidence and reduces ambiguity associated with conventional “black-box” AI models. This transparency also supports better regulatory compliance, as decision-makers are able to trace and justify automated financial assessments. A key finding of the study highlights the strong influence of Financial Distress Indicators (FDI) on strengthening SME financial resilience. Firms that systematically monitor distress signals—such as declining sales or liquidity challenges—show greater preparedness and adaptability when supported by XAI-enabled forecasting frameworks. Beyond empirical insights, the study offers several practical contributions. It underscores the need for ethical and responsible AI adoption, ensuring fairness and accountability in financial prediction systems. The findings advocate for the development of user-friendly and context-appropriate XAI tools that SMEs can easily integrate into their existing operational workflows. Moreover, targeted training programmes and digital literacy initiatives are essential to empower SME owners, financial managers, and operational staff to effectively interpret and utilise these tools. Policymakers and technology developers are also enc…
