Societies are classified according to their development and use of technology. For most of human history, people lived in preindustrial societies characterized by limited technology and low production of goods. After the Industrial Revolution, many societies based their economies around mechanized labour, leading to greater profits and a trend toward greater social mobility. At the turn of the new millennium, a new type of society emerged. This post-industrial, or information, society is built on digital technology and nonmaterial goods. Educational and instructional supervision occur in a variety of societies; thus the need to explore the various typologies of societies that provide the context for the instructional supervision process.

The term “developed country” is synonymous to “industrialized country, post-industrial country, more developed country, advanced country, and first-world country.” The United Kingdom, France, Germany, Canada, Japan, Switzerland, and the United States of America are only a few of those considered as developed countries. A developing country, on the other hand, is one that has a low level of industrialization. It has a higher level of birth and death rates than developed countries. Its infant mortality rate is also high due to poor nutrition, shortage of medical services, and little knowledge on health. The citizens of developing countries have a low to medium standard of living because their per capita income is still developing, and their technological capacity is still being developed. There is also an unequal distribution of income in developing countries, and their factors of production are not fully utilized. Developing countries are also referred to as third-world countries or least-developed countries.

Since their unearthing in the mid 1990's, Stem Cells have carried with them the promise of developmental, significant scientific and medicinal research. Likewise, it has the prospect that possessed the possibility of enhancing treatments for a host of diseases. These „super cells‟ have a key clinical prospect in tissue repair, with its adherers believing that they symbolizes the future relief or cure of varieties of common disabilities; substitute of faulty cells in a patient through transplantation of hES cell‐derived equivalent which could help restore normal function. Those who seek to curtail the use of certain stem cell lines, revert to the argument that has defined many medical centric debates over the previous decades. The argument, the destruction of human life to create life, is the stalwart philosophical point that all anti-stem cell advocates attempt to make. The purpose of this discussion is to engage in an analysis of the various aspects of the ethical debate relating to the use of stem cells in medical research.

This is an analysis, commentary, and critique of the “Planet of the Apes” saga, with major focus on the 2011 film, “Rise of the Planet of the Apes”. The author examines the film from the perspective of an extended and continuing, overarching theme characterizing earlier films of the same: “Planet of the Apes” (1963), and “Planet of the Apes” (2001). The issue of freedom and anthropocentric values defining things human are examined in the face of what emerges as a merger or transformation of this “humanity” to, and with apes, and thus, the creation of what the author describes as “Apeity” in the film. The author examines what can be viewed as a bi-directional “violation” of both Humanity and “Apeity” and describes this “violation” in terms of its meaning to the concept of Humanity using various characters from these films and explores the “apish” and “human” values and behaviors inherent in concepts of culture – social psychological and sociological. The author evokes themes of anthropocentrism and anthropomorphism in exploration of values, freedom, identity, and conflicts as depicted in the ape saga. The author briefly examines the continuation of the social humanism and conflicts in the 2014 film “The Dawn of the Planet of the Apes” into the third presentation, “War of the Planet of the Apes” (2017). These ideas are presented in relation to ideals of femininity and masculinity, individualism and collectivism relative to definition of Humanity. Finally, the author reconciles this treatment of the film with concurrent practices regarding human values and treatment of non-human creatures and the ideas of human fate and future.

Ahmad ibn Taymiyyah (d.1328), is one of the most quoted medieval scholars by contemporary jihadists from the 1980s to the present time. The frequent use of Ibn Taymiyyah by the jihadists in justifying their doctrines made many to believe that Ibn Taymiyyah share the same view with the contemporary jihadists on the issues of jihad and terrorism. This paper will analyse the other side of Ibn Taymiyyah on jihad by studying one of his treatises on jihad. In the treatise of Qāʿida mukhtaṣara fī qitāli al-kuffāri wa mudāhanatihim wa taḥrīmi qatlihim bi mujarradi kufrihim Ibn proved soft on the issue of jihad by arguing two issues. Firstly, that the infidels are not fought due to their disbelief, rather, if no danger is sensed from them they should only be subdued to paying jizya. Secondly, the jizya should not be restricted to the people of the Book, it should be collected from all the infidels. This paper will discuss the textual evidence of the treatise and analyse the two arguments in light of other works of Ibn Taymiyyah and Ibn al-Qayyim.

Islam is a comprehensive system of life. It was built upon fire pillars viz. monotheism, Salat, zakat, fasting and pilgrimage. Zakat as one of these five pillars of Islam has a special consideration through which if a Muslim (to whom it was prescribed) fails to establish becomes incomplete Muslim. It is obligatory upon those who are wealthy to take out some specific portion of their wealth to those who are poor. This system has many advantages among various Muslim communities. It will instill the attitude of love, intimacy and affection between a rich and a poor, and more importantly, zakat often help towards the alleviation of poverty in the society. For this, Islam put the responsibility of collecting the zakat on a government from the wealthy people and to distribute it to those who are needy. As such many Muslim states in Nigeria today have established Zakat and Endowment Institutions / Organizations to carry out this task. Sokoto state is one of these states where zakat Committee was upgraded to Zakat Commission in December 2016. The activities of the Commission contributed immensely towards the alleviation of poverty in the state. Thus, this paper aims to examine to what extent the Sokoto State Zakat Commission contributed in the eradication of poverty in Nigeria and Sokoto state in particular.

Criticim Republic of Indonesia Law Number 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower is often the spotlight of labor activists. The "outsourcing" employment contract system for plantation workers is seen as a practice of fragmentation, degradative, discriminatory and exploitative effects on workers. Researchers on Nias migrant workers in Pelalawan Riau HTI plantations are interpretations of the meaning of the assumption of labor exploitation with a qualitative method approach. Results of research on Nias migrant workers in HTI found that the application of the outsourcing system is one form of labor exploitation. The level of education and openness to initial information when in the recruitment process does not work properly. Workers are "locked up" by agents through power structures that influence each other in dominant and subordinate power. Model debt and payroll system it does not bring prosperity, instead, workers are trapped in a cycle of poverty and exploitative. The head of the group (kepala rombongan) (KR) as a “wild agent" and the contractor of the company providing labor actually became an exploitative agent. The dream of workers getting social security, THR, and welfare is gone when they see the situation they are treated like a slave. Finally, Nias migrant workers can only come out if they struggle through resistance and are assisted by "hands" of observers engaged in the struggle for labor advocacy.
