The use of digital technology tools has become a daily life requirement in the world. It is in such a perspective that these digital technology tools are therefore assessed as the pre-requisite tools that are needed for almost everybody nowadays. However, in the African context and taking Africa as the unity of analysis, the same digital technology tools are criticized for having both negative and positive impacts on African society. Mostly judged as good for adults, some researchers observe that digital technology tools are very dangerous to young children if not supervised by adults for what they have to use them for. From an African political perspective, these tools are not only dangerous but also colonial apparatuses based on the fact that these tools are colonially designed—a scandal for African society. Politically, any fabricated technological device is made for a particular objective. This questions multiple missions of technological digital tools that are exported to Africa—considered as a laboratory. Decolonizing digital technology in Africa therefore attracts an African political thought as an emergent need to challenge such a dominium digito-colonial complex situation.","PeriodicalId":267360,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences","volume":"67 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140455296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Essentially, farmers allocate a significant portion of their available time primarily to safety, as well as improvements in crops, land, and even livestock. However, it is very regrettable to think that they do not extend the same care or give equal consideration to their physical, social, and mental health and well-being, increasing the likelihood of stress. If this problem of stress persists, it could lead to a reduction in their ability to provide for themselves and also impact rural development. This is why the study was undertaken to determine whether there is a relationship between stress management among farmers and rural development. This was achieved through the use of the multi-stage sampling technique in choosing 360 respondents and employing Robert Karasek’s stress theory to explain the subject matter. The study concluded that stress among farmers could lead to rural underdevelopment. Thus, the study recommends that farmers should make an effort to reduce their stress by spending quality time with their families, employing more labor (if they can afford it), and interacting with other farmers, among other strategies","PeriodicalId":267360,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences","volume":"127 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140485704","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although African Americans had considerable success following the Civil Rights Movement by1990, many of their children still attended all-black schools in poor racially isolated crime-ridden communities, and 38% of blacks lived in families with incomes below the poverty line, compared to an 18% state average. Politically, the period saw significant gains by African Americans. By the early 1990s the state had more than 700 black elected officials, one of the nation’s highest, which led to calls to create a district to elect an African American congressman. In 1992, such a district emerged, Alabama’s seventh as a result of a federal court-approved redistricting plan. Earl Hilliard, a state senator for Birmingham was elected to the seat becoming the first African American congressman since reconstruction. However, redrawing the seventh district proved costly to Democrats because it made two other congressional districts pro-Republican by taking away large chunks of black voters from the second and sixth districts.

Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted among paediatricians registered in the Orders of Physicians. A 63-item questionnaire in English was sent by e-mail or by message to mobile phones of all paediatricians with subsequent reminders. Results: One hundred seventeen physicians agreed to participate in the study. A high proportion of Lebanese paediatricians replied correctly on avoiding antibiotics in cases of cough (86.3%), upper respiratory tract infections (74.4%), tympanic membrane dysfunction (64.1%) and prevention of secondary infection (63%). Eighty percent of physicians prescribed antibiotics for pharyngitis without requesting a throat culture. Most physicians admitted that antibiotic use is considerable in their community and that antibiotic resistance is a threat on the national and international level. Forty percent of paediatricians agreed and strongly agreed that giving advice to parents reduces their antibiotic demand. The same percentage disagreed that they might prescribe antibiotics to gain parents’ trust. Conclusion: National campaigns are required to increase parents’ educations and promote judicious antimicrobial use. Implementing national guidelines, ensuring continuing medical education for doctors and regulating over the counter sale of antibiotics are highly recommended","PeriodicalId":267360,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences","volume":"14 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126046617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
