Published: September 2024

Good interaction between the management accounting system and decentralization will give positive results to the manager's performance due to the alignment of information and decision-making that can improve the company's performance. The purpose of this study to find out the effect of decentralization on manager performance mediated by management accounting system on dealerships and showrooms in Manado City. This study used an extended multiple regression analysis model with an analytical path model. The results of decentralization research directly affect the significance of managerial performance. It means that the greater the degree of delegation of authority and responsibility of top management to middle and lower managers in the form of decision-making, the higher the managerial performance. Decentralization has a significant effect on the management accounting system, but the management accounting system has no significant effect on the manager's performance. From these results, the management accounting system was unable to mediate the influence of decentralization on manager performance.

In this study the method used by researchers is the systematic layout planning method with the aim of producing a more efficient flow through layout design by paying attention to the sequence of a process relationship to each activity that occurs. Based on the Systematic Layout Planning method, there are proposed layouts with distances between departments that are shorter or closer to the distance between departments, with a comparison of the distance between the initial layout of 16 m and the proposed layout of 11.37 m.
Customary Law and Indigenous Peoples' Rights: Challenges in the Age of Globalisation
Authors: Bakri Muh
Published: September 2024

Customary law and the rights of indigenous peoples have an important role in maintaining cultural identity and local wisdom, especially in Indonesia, which has a diversity of customs. However, in the era of globalisation, customary law faces various challenges, from the legal, economic and social aspects. This article explores how customary law and the rights of indigenous peoples are trying to remain relevant amidst the influences of modernisation, globalisation, and harmonisation with national law. The research uses a qualitative approach by analysing several cases in different regions, which shows that the process of globalisation often results in the erosion of customary law, marginalisation of indigenous peoples, and exploitation of natural resources in indigenous territories. The findings also highlight the importance of recognising and protecting customary law in state regulations, as well as the need to strengthen the rights of indigenous peoples in order to adapt and remain resilient in the face of global challenges. Thus, strengthening customary law in the national legal system is essential to create a balance between modernity and tradition.

Private security and transport of money and other valuables in France: Historical and legal aspects
Authors: Radivojević Nenad
Published: September 2024

One of the challenges faced by most countries today is adopting an appropriate legal framework to regulate the most important issues of private security activities. Certainly, one of these issues is the services provided by private security companies, which include the activity of securing the transport of money and other valuables. France, as a member state of the European Union, has a specific legal framework. The subject of this paper is the analysis of the legal framework regulating private security activities concerning the transport of money and other valuables. In this regard, the historical development of the legal framework will be particularly analyzed. Additionally, the provisions of the current Code of Internal Security (Code de la sécurité intérieure) will be analyzed, which, among others, regulate the following issues: performing tasks of transportation of money and other valuables; conditions that transport vehicles must meet; types of transport vehicles; transport vehicle crew (wearing a uniform, protective vest and weapons) and technical protection systems.
The model for integrating road function, road status, and road class in the road network system
Authors: Kurniawan Herry , Suparma Latif , Tri Utomo
Published: September 2024

The lack of synchronization between road categories in Indonesia, which includes road function, road status, road infrastructure class, and road load class, results in negative impacts on roads, including air pollution, traffic accidents, congestion, and road deterioration that occurs more rapidly than the planned road lifespan. Another consequence is that the lack of synchronization between logistics transport trips and road function and classifications can lead to violations of the maximum axle load limits for goods vehicles. The objective of this research is to establish an analytical correlation between the identification of road segments based on road function, road status, road load class, and road infrastructure class, as well as the impact variables. Additionally, the aim is to develop a model for determining road function, road status, road infrastructure class, and road load class, along with their impact variables. The primary areas studied in this research are the road networks in Lampung, DIY, East Java, South Kalimantan, West Papua, Maluku, and Southeast Sulawesi. The research employs two quantitative techniques: Importance Performance Analysis (IPA) and Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). Data and information have been gathered through questionnaire surveys, desk studies, and interviews, which confirm Law No. 2 of 2022 concerning Roads, which explains that road function are derived from road status, while road infrastructure class and road load class are also derived from road function. The findings reveal that how roads are classified by their function has a major effect on traffic outcomes. This emphasizes the importance of categorizing roads based on their intended use. Consequently, it is crucial for planners to focus on functional classifications when designing and managing road infrastructure to tackle traffic issues effectively.

The development and widespread use of information and communication technologies, the possibility of online banking transactions have led to an increase in the number of computer thefts, which is inevitably due to the victimological factor.

As a result of the conducted research, the author was able to identify the personal and behavioral characteristics of victims of computer theft, the nature of the relationship with the victim and the perpetrator. Thus, the personal characteristics of the victims are gullibility, imprudence, frivolity, low ability to use information technology. In accordance with these personal characteristics, victims in a particular situation, as a rule, demonstrate an inability to correctly assess the situation, are misled, and sometimes thoughtlessly establish dangerous connections. In most cases, the perpetrator and the victim are not related in any way. Rarely do they have a relationship that developed before the crime was committed.

Taking into account the above, in the author‘s opinion, in order to general victimological prevention of the computer theft, it is necessary to hold seminars, discussions and other events among the population on victimological issues of these crimes, carry out media publications of appropriate content, organize victimological and educational activities in schools and other educational institutions, and conduct explanatory work by law enforcement agencies measures of acceptance.
Os “corpos em aliança” nas intersecções entre o coletivo musical Teto Preto e o contexto da festa Mamba Negra
Authors: Ferreira Filho Renato Gonçalves
Published: September 2024

O presente artigo visa analisar como os “corpos em aliança” se dão nas intersecções entre o texto do grupo musical Teto Preto e o contexto da festa Mamba Negra. Após uma breve apresentação do objeto de análise, apresentamos aspectos principais da “teoria performativa de assembleia”, de Judith Butler, que formam nosso repertório crítico. Na sequência, sob a perspectiva metodológica dos estudos da performance, realizamos uma análise de materiais selecionados da performance do Teto Preto articulando-os às condições performativas da Mamba Negra. Como resultados, destacamos como o grupo vocaliza o contexto da festa, sobretudo, no que diz respeito à união de corpos vulneráveis na luta por reconhecimento político. Além disso, destacamos a estratégia política de construção de espaços destinados ao aparecimento desses corpos que, em coalizão, estabelecem laços de reconhecimento recíproco que os fortalecem na busca por vidas menos precarizadas. A Mamba Negra e o Teto Preto, assim, são um exemplo de uma ação política a partir de estruturas coletivamente construídas e interdependentes, como no formato butleriano de “assembleia”, que ocorre não só nas manifestações de rua e de suas reivindicações políticas, mas também em espaços como o da festa e demais expressões do entretenimento, como a música popular, a dança e os produtos audiovisuais.

This study aimed to reveal the predictive ability of cognitive distortions in smiling depression for people with high job titles. To achieve the objectives of the study, the cognitive distortions scale developed by Al-Mataarna (2018) was used, as well as the smiling depression scale developed by Musameh (2011). The study sample consisted of (228) individuals with high job titles who work in private Jordanian universities. The results of the study showed that the level of cognitive distortions was low, while the level of smiling depression was moderate. The results also showed that there are statistically significant differences in the predictive ability of cognitive distortions in smiling depression due to gender variable in favor of females. They also showed that there are statistically significant differences at the significance level (α = 0.05) in both: the predictive ability of cognitive distortions and smiling depression due to differences in the gender variable in favor of females. On the other hand, the results showed that there are no statistically significant differences in both of the cognitive distortions and smiling depression due to (academic rank and job) variables, and that the percentage of relative contribution of the variable of cognitive distortions in explaining the variance of smiling depression was (32.80%).
