Nepal has a short and slowly developing history of psychiatry. Recent political turmoil has crippled Nepalese healthcare in rural areas. Although the final quarter of the 20th century saw some development of psychiatric services in Nepal, the majority of Nepalese people remain deprived of such services even today. There is no national health programme or Mental Health Act. Psychiatric services are hospital based and most are centralised in the capital. Nepalese psychiatrists need urgent help, but they have been unable to form a strong professional body. This report presents the historical background, current state of affairs and suggestions for modernising mental health services in Nepal.

Mental health has a great influence on the quality of life and learning outcomes of students. This problem is related to many different factors. It is necessary to clarify the current state of mental health and influencing factors, thereby taking appropriate measures to take care of the mental health of students and help them study effectively. This study examined mental health and parents' expectations on a sample of 242 randomly selected students at a number of high schools in Ho Chi Minh City. Through the DASS42 tool and the scale designed by the research team, the research results showed that the level of parents' expectations for students is not high; the percentage of students with stress is 43.7%, anxiety is 38.6%, depression is 35%, in which the percentage of students with severe and very severe problems are: stress 12.3%, anxiety 10.3%, depression 6.9%, students' mental health problems are closely correlated; Parental expectations are correlated with student mental health problems and are likely to report 12.6% to 15% variability in student mental health problems.

The prevalence of hate speech and hate-motivated crimes in Canada can be attributed to the systemic failures of Canadian laws. These laws have historically condoned ill treatment towards minorities and minimal changes have been made to remedy this. An examination of how Canadian criminal law defines hate speech and hate-motivated crimes will provide a better understanding of how the current legal framework inadequately addresses it. An analysis of the current state of affairs and real-world implications will provide information on statistics and consequences. Particular attention is focused on several minority groups who face the consequences of these crimes. More research should be conducted focusing on the effects of hate speech and crime on victims and their mental health. Moreover, additional research determining causal linkages between hate speech and serious violent incidents of hate crimes would better solidify the need to address hate speech more seriously.

Post Humanism

The article analyzes the current state of affairs in philosophy in relation to the question «What is hu-man?». In this regard, the author identifies two strategies – post-humanism and post-cosmism. The strat-egy of post-humanism is to deny the idea of human exceptionalism. Humanity becomes something that can be thought of out of touch with human and understood as a right that extends to the non-human world. Post-cosmism, on the contrary, advocated the idea of ontological otherness of the human. Re-sponding to the challenges of anthropological catastrophe, its representatives propose a number of new anthropological projects.
