Abdulmecit Nuredin, Tevfik Can Inan — Mon, 01 Jul 2024 00:00:00 +0200

The rapid proliferation of artificial intelligence (AI)-based decision-making systems in society generates a profound transformation that deeply affects fundamental human rights concepts such as justice and equality. This article provides a comprehensive examination of the development and technical foundations of AI-based systems, as well as their impacts on justice and equality. The increasing role of AI in decision-making processes presents both opportunities and risks, with issues such as bias, discrimination, and lack of transparency posing significant challenges to the preservation of justice and equality. The article analyzes the application of AI based systems across various sectors, including judiciary, public policy, healthcare, and employment, focusing on the ethical dimensions, their relationship with human rights, and the legal responsibilities they entail. Additionally, it offers policy recommendations and regulatory requirements for the fair use of AI, evaluates the long-term effects of these technologies, and explores future development perspectives.
In conclusion, the development and implementation of AIbased decision-making systems in accordance with the principles of justice and equality require careful oversight and an ethical framework. The successful use of these technologies to maximize societal benefits while protecting human rights is achievable through a continuous process of monitoring and evaluation.

Arafat Usein, Havva Saban — Mon, 01 Jul 2024 00:00:00 +0200

According to Macedonian educational legislation, from the school year 2022/23, all children with disabilities must be included in regular schools. However, throughout the world, children with disabilities and their families constantly experience a barrier in regard to theenjoyment of their basic human rights and to their inclusion in society. Aim of this paper is to put emphasize on inclusive education of all students with disabilities. So according to this legislation teachers should accept the inclusion of children with some types of disabilities in the regular classrooms. Their capacities are underestimated and their needs are given low priority. The barriers they face are more frequently a result of the environment in which they live rather than a result of their impairment. In literature, the current debate is no longer about what inclusion, special needs and learning disability is and why it is needed. The key question is how it is to be achieved. Moreover, in our country currently, the debate focuses on “full inclusive education”. Namely, according to the new Macedonian educational legislation, all children with disabilities must be included in regular schools. Children's rights are equal for all children and this right should be preserved. When the goal is full inclusion, it is essential for teachers to be competent and willing to work with children with disabilities. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to explore the attitudes of teachers towards inclusive education of all students with disabilities, and also the factors they consider most important to the proper implementation of inclusive practices in regular schools.

Azam Korbayram — Mon, 01 Jul 2024 00:00:00 +0200

The concept of a state of emergency, which is the subject of this study, was regulated by the 1991 Constitution of the Republic of North Macedonia in terms of its declaration conditions, competent authorities, duration, and legal nature. The study also explores the legal discussion surrounding the measures taken during the Covid-19 pandemic period, which restricted many personal rights and freedoms. In this regard, the study will examine how the Constitutional Court's decisions have prioritized public health over personal rights, acknowledging that fundamental rights may be restricted through measures implemented during a state of emergency, which is considered an exceptional situation. These measures, including the curfew, have been implemented not only in North Macedonia but also in many countries around the world. Among these measures, the curfew stands out as the most significant. This study will analyze the impact of the curfew on fundamental rights and freedoms from the perspective of constitutional law, focusing on the decisions of the Constitutional Court. Additionally, the study will evaluate the legal nature of the state of emergency in the Republic of North Macedonia, including the roles of authorized institutions, the duration of the state of emergency, and the measures to be taken, all within the framework of constitutional norms. To achieve this, the study employs a literature review method, utilizing both written book sources and journal articles indexed in Scopus and Ebsco. The primary sources for this study include Constitutional Court decisions, state of emergency decrees, and relevant constitutional and legal norms.

SUSTAINABILITY AND QUALITY COSTS IN THE HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

Cvetanka Velkoska — Mon, 01 Jul 2024 00:00:00 +0200

This paper explores the quality cost models in higher education institutions, that can help in the function of planning the cost of quality in higher education, monitoring and analyzing the cost of quality to locate the weak points in the operation and reduce and prevent unproductive spending from the aspect of quality. Sustainable development as a concept should be integrated into quality cost management not only in manufacturing but also in service activities such as higher education. This study focuses on quality costs within the framework of sustainability in higher education institutions. The research methodology involves a logical, systematic analysis of scientific research, situational analysis using comparative and summary methods. In this study is proposed a quality cost model for identifying quality cost elements with examples of quality cost elements. Incorporating the three dimensions of sustainability (economic, ecological, and social) into quality cost model involves considering the broader impacts and benefits of quality costs beyond just quality improvement. The paper advocates for incorporating preventive measures and sustainable practices to reduce failure costs and promote long-term sustainability goals. Future research directions include developing quality cost models that incorporate sustainability concept. The successful implementation of quality costs from the sustainability perspective requires commitment from top management, data-driven decisionmaking, and stakeholder engagement, ultimately leading to higher quality standards and sustainable development in higher education
