 Abstract

This paper examines Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel's master-slave dialectic as a theory of self-consciousness grounded in recognition, fear, and labour, and extends it into the domain of economic theory. Against interpretations that treat mastery as the realization of freedom, the paper argues that the master's recognition is structurally deficient because it is derived from a dependent consciousness. By contrast, the slave's experience of fear and engagement in labour generates a transformative process through which self-consciousness becomes mediated and historically grounded. The paper develops an original interdisciplinary model that formalizes this dialectic in economic terms, interpreting recognition as a non-material utility component and labour as a process of value creation and self-objectification. The analysis demonstrates that domination produces unstable utility equilibria, whereas labour-mediated recognition generates sustainable value, both economically and philosophically. The master-slave dialectic is thus reinterpreted as a dynamic model of subject-formation and economic development, revealing that genuine freedom emerges not through domination but through productive and reciprocal mediation.

 Abstract

Chronic wounds, particularly diabetic ulcers, present a major therapeutic challenge due to delayed healing, high risk of infection, and impaired tissue regeneration. The present study aims to formulate and evaluate a polyherbal hydrogel as an effective topical drug delivery system for wound healing applications. The hydrogel was developed using Carbopol 940 as a gelling agent and incorporated with herbal extracts of Azadirachta indica and Centella asiatica, known for their potent antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and wound healing properties. Suitable excipients such as triethanolamine, glycerin, methyl paraben, and acetic acid were used to achieve the desired consistency, stability, and preservation of the formulation. The prepared hydrogel was evaluated for various physicochemical parameters including physical appearance, pH, viscosity, spreadability, homogeneity, and drug content. The formulation exhibited a smooth and homogeneous texture with a pH suitable for skin application. Viscosity and spreadability were found to be optimal, ensuring ease of application and improved patient compliance. In vitro drug release studies demonstrated a sustained release pattern of the active constituents, which is beneficial for prolonged therapeutic action at the wound site. The antimicrobial activity of the hydrogel indicated effective inhibition of microbial growth, supporting its role in preventing wound infections. Additionally, the formulation was found to be non-irritant and safe for topical use. Overall, the developed polyherbal hydrogel showed promising results and can be considered a potential alternative for the effective management of diabetic wounds.

 Abstract

In India, the position of mother is considered as the highest and her role is crucial in upbringing the family and society, but in history of India except very few names like Gautani, Jijabai and so on, where is the mother, her role, who is the mother and why mother was not highlighted for her contribution to society? All these questions are arising again and again in my mind and heart. In this patriarchic historical writing society of India only fathers are highlighted as Father of Indian Renaissance, Father of the Nation, Father of Social Revolution,1 Father of Modern India and so on. I started researching mother and her role by revisiting the pages of Indian History and I found a clue to my questions and there are women who played a major role in the progress of society. In 19" Century India we have social and religious reform movements and this period is called as Indian Renaissance, during this period Savithribai Phule come forward and played a crucial role of mother to uplift the society for the progress of the complete nation.

 Abstract

Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) is the most prevalent malignancy in children and demands rapid, accurate diagnosis for effective treatment. Conventional diagnosis relies on manual microscopic examination of peripheral blood smears (PBS), which is time-consuming and subject to inter-observer variability. This paper presents LeukDetect, a web-based AI system that employs ResNet-50 transfer learning to classify PBS images into four categories: Benign (Hematogone), Early Pre-B ALL, Pre-B ALL, and Pro-B ALL. The model adopts a two-phase training strategy: first freezing the ResNet-50 base to train a custom classification head, then fine-tuning the top 30 layers end-to-end. Deployed as a FastAPI backend with an interactive HTML interface, LeukDetect achieves an expected classification accuracy of 92-97% on the C-NMC leukemia dataset. The system supports real-time image upload and inference, making it a practical decision-support tool for haematologists. This work demonstrates that deep learning-based approaches can substantially augment clinical workflows for early leukemia detection.

 Abstract

Growing environmental concerns such as climate change, water scarcity, and resource depletion have significantly influenced consumer awareness and behavior. In response, businesses are increasingly adopting green marketing practices to promote sustainable consumption. This paper provides a systematic review of existing literature on green marketing and its influence on consumers' green purchasing behavior. It highlights key theoretical foundations such as the Theory of Planned Behavior and the Theory of Reasoned Action. The study further categorizes green marketing initiatives into strategic and tactical levels and examines their role in shaping consumer decisions. The findings suggest that well-designed green marketing strategies positively influence consumer attitudes, intentions, and actual purchasing behavior. This review contributes to bridging the gap in understanding how different green marketing approaches impact consumer behavior and provides insights for future research.

 Abstract

Caste was a scourge that has confounded social cohesion for centuries; it manifested itself in several forms, and temple worship has been particularly affected. This was not always infallibly the case, as exceptions existed, such as Muthappan worship. This paper examines the worship of Sree Muthappan in North Kerala as a ritual practice where the division between the sacred and profane is dissolved. It reimagines Muthappan worship not merely as a religious event but as a living text that enacts culture and subaltern agency through an interdisciplinary approach that draws from literary theory and performance studies. The paper argues that worshipping Muthappan reinterprets divinity as an embodied and democratic experience, in which a deity who moves among the populace and fraternizes with all regardless of status. Additionally, the study emphasizes ritual performance as a site that resists rigid social hierarchies, allowing marginalised voice to be expressed within a sacred context. By prioritizing participation, inclusivity, and collective experience, Muthappan worship question established ideas of purity and exclusion. Ultimately, it offers an alternative cultural model in which spirituality promotes social equality and a shared sense of identity.

 Abstract

This article analyses how climate justice and social inequality are portrayed in two contemporary novels: Barbara Kingsolver's Prodigal Summer and Kim Stanley Robinson's New York 2140. While the former depicts rural settings with the focus on the present-day problems, the latter portrays urban scenarios of the future following a devastating catastrophe. Both novels demonstrate that climate disasters exacerbate the already existing social inequalities in society. Set in rural southern Appalachia, Kingsolver's book illustrates a farmer's struggle to balance profit and environmental conservation. According to Kingsolver, rural people need to attract greater attention because they are not discussed during climate change negotiations but are much more vulnerable to environmental problems. Conversely, Robinson's New York 2140 depicts a submerged Manhattan reimagined as a "Super-Venice", where the actual elevation of a residence reflects its occupant's socio-economic standing. Robinson criticises global finance capital's attempts to turn environmental disasters into commodities, making rising sea levels a new place for gentrification. This article looks at the characters' journeys and the physical settings of both novels to show that both authors see climate justice not just as a technical or scientific problem to be solved but as a social project based on community resilience, closing the wealth gap, and fundamentally rethinking how people interact with the natural world. These two novels assert that it is impossible to significantly alter the world without dealing with the social inequalities that are a big part of our time.

 Abstract

A Snowflake-Inspired Slotted Hexagonal Microstrip Patch Antenna (SSHMPA) incorporating five asymmetric inward-pointing triangular slots over a Rogers RT/duroid 5880 dielectric substrate (er = 2.2, h = 0.254 mm) is presented for millimeter-wave 5G NR operation centered at 28 GHz. Electromagnetic simulation conducted in CST Studio Suite 2025 validates that the introduced asymmetric slot arrangement achieves a -10 dB impedance bandwidth of 2.3 GHz, which is approximately nine times greater than that of the plain hexagonal reference structure. The verified performance figures include a return loss of -11.50 dB, a voltage standing wave ratio of 1.724, a realized gain of 5.28 dBi, and a radiation efficiency value of 86.9 percent at the resonant point of 27.94 GHz.
