Role and Position of Public Debt in Islamic Fiscal Policy in Indonesia
Authors: Kasanah Roisatun , Ryandono Muhamad Nafik Hadi
Published: September 2022

This study tries to provide an overview of the role and position of public debt in Islamic fiscal policy by collecting information from books, journals, scientific articles and official news related to fiscal policy in Indonesia. From the results of the analysis, the researcher found that although there are several opinions that suggest the use of public debt is permissible in overcoming the budget deficit that occurs in the state, there are still provisions that must be considered such as debt schemes that do not use interest or the practice of usury and only carried out in circumstances emergency and intended for meeting the needs that are important to the community. In addition, although debt instruments have beneficial values for the economy, there are many things that must be considered such as good management of the government, good political conditions, and efficiency and the absence of corruption or other illegal acts. In Islamic fiscal policy, there are various alternative sources of state income that have enormous potential through zakat, infaq, alms, and endowments. In addition, the use of debt instruments can be carried out in accordance with Islamic rules through the concept of mudaraba, musyarakah, and buying and selling business contracts.
An Islamic Economic Perspective About Sources of Public Finance Revenue in Indonesia Based on Abu Ubaid’s and Ad-Dawudi‘s Thought
Authors: Hamdi Baitul , Widiastuti Tika
Published: September 2022

This paper discusses sources of Islamic public finance income based on the ideas of Abu Ubaid and Ad-Dawudi in the Al-Amwal book and makes them relevant to sources of income from Indonesian public finances. The writing uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach to analyze the thoughts of Abu Ubaid and Ad-Dawud. The results showed that the sources of public financial income according to Abu Ubaid are zakat, fa'I, and khumus. While according to Ad-Dawudi in the book Al-Amwal, the source of state income is divided into periodic income (jizyah and kharaj and usyur) non-income periodic (ghanimah, fa'I, and zakat). In general, it has relevance to public sources of finance in Indonesia, it's just that the system or amount is different. Kharaj, fai, usyur, khumus in the form of mining taxes, jizyah in the form of visas, ghanimah there are differences of opinion that can be equated with confiscated goods from the state due to violating the law while other opinions say they are irrelevant because they support war actions to acquire wealth, lastly, Zakat is still practiced in Indonesia and managed by BAZNAS and LAZ

The results of the study found: First, the Ministry of energy and mineral resources is the leading sector in the management of the mining sector at the national level. Meanwhile, at the local government level, the provincial and district/city offices of energy and mineral resources are played. Second, in Central Sulawesi Province mining business permits are issued by the One Stop Service Investment Office. Before the omnibus law, there are at least five stages that are passed in the licensing process, namely the application for a mining business area permit, an application for an exploration mining business permit, an application for a principle permit for the use of national strategic area space, and an application for an Environmental Feasibility Decree and Environmental Permit, as well as an application for a production mining business permit. Third, the issuance of law number 11 of 2020 concerning job creation (omnibus law) reduces the authority of local governments in managing mining permits in Central Sulawesi. In addition, the omnibus law provides convenience in environmental management, where environmental permits are replaced with environmental approvals that are integrated with business permits.

Published: September 2022

Historical Kawasoti Lake is an excellent hub for floral and faunal diversity located in the Bhabhar region of the Southern Nawalpur district. This study was carried out to access the status and diversity of terrestrial floral species around the Lake area. A species-area curve method was employed to determine the sampling quadrants and the area was surveyed and sampled by foot trail for data collection. A total of 19 sample quadrants each of 10m*10m for tree species and a nested plot of 3*3m for shrubs and 1*1m for herbs were laid by foot trail within each quadrant. The collected data were analyzed and the Important Value Index (IVI)of only tree species was calculated in MS- Excel. A total of 66 terrestrial plant species of 38 different families were recorded, among which 25 were trees (38%), 27 herbs (41%), 12shrubs (18%), and 2 climber species (3%). Among 38 families, the Asteraceae family was dominant, followed by Poaceae, Lamiaceae, Moraceae, Malvaceae, Amaranthaceae, Apocynaceae, Fabaceae, and so on. Among 25 tree species, Moraceae was the most dominant family followed by Meliaceae, Rubiaceae, Malvaceae, and so on. Shorea robusta of the Dipterocarpaceae family has the highest IVI (62.16) followed by Dalbergia sissoo of the Fabaceae family (24.37), Ziziphus mauritiana of Malvaceae family (22.87), Melia azedarach of Meliaceae family (21.06), and least of Carica papaya of Caricaceae family (3.71). The result shows the floristic diversity and species richness around the lake area. So, further conservation programs need to be carried out in the future to conserve the ecological and social diversity of this lake sustainably. Also, this study will provide baseline information for plant specialists, foresters, and biologists to enhance the conservation of this floral species in this lake and also in different lake zones of Nepal.
Evidence Regarding Ethiopia's Import-Export of Mushrooms
Authors: Abate Tensaye , Girma Gonche , Alem Shiferaw
Published: September 2022

Ethiopia has favorable agro-climate, topography, relatively low-cost labor, and rich fungal biodiversity. However, the country has a poor response to mushroom production and hence, currently, a huge amount of mushrooms is imported to the country. Information on the import-export trends of the mushrooms trade and market is lacking for taking appropriate measures. The study aims to evaluate the current status and future trends as well as prospects of mushroom import export in Ethiopia. The imported-exported data were collected from Ethiopian Custom Commission in the years of 1997 – 2020. The analysis was conducted using descriptive statistical tools and the ARIMA model in excel and STATA, respectively. The result indicates that the average imported and exported quantity is 88.3 and 5.1 tonnes of mushrooms per year, respectively. Similarly, the country spent an average of US$ 154,199 per year on imported mushrooms while it earned an average of US$ 11,074 per year from exported mushrooms, which is a trade deficit. The result further indicated that on average the quantities of mushrooms imported to the country and the expenditure to import increased yearly by 53 % and 44%, respectively.  The forecasted result shows that Ethiopia will spend 483,528.3 US$ on mushroom imports in 2040 as indicated in the findings. However, mushroom productions pave the way for national revenue if given serious consideration and will reduce the food import value. Further, it is recommended that the country has to emphasize the expansion of mushrooms to meet the growing demand and substitute the imported mushroom.

Alzheimer Disease MRI Preprocessed Images: A Machine Intelligent Based Approach for Classification and Analysis
Authors: Jena Kalyan Kumar , K. Krishna Prasad
Published: September 2022

Purpose: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is considered as one of the most dangerous diseases in the present scenario. It is a brain disorder disease which leads to the destruction of the thinking skills and memory of human beings. It is very much essential for the early classification of AD magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) preprocessed images (ADMPIs) into several categories such as Mild_Demented (MID), Moderate_Demented (MOD), Non_Demented (ND), Very_Mild_Demented (VMD), etc. so that preventive measures can be taken at the earliest.
Approach: In this work, a machine intelligent (MI) based approach is proposed for the classification of ADMPIs into the MID, MOD, ND and VMD types. This approach is focused on machine learning (ML) based methods such as Logistic Regression (LRG), Support Vector Machine (SVMN), Random Forest (RFS), Neural Network (NNT), Decision Tree (DTR), AdaBoost (ADB), Naïve Bayes (NBY), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNNH) and Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGDC) to carry out such classification.
Result: The ML based methods have been implemented using Python based Orange 3.26.0. In this work, 1564 ADMPIs having 500, 64, 500 and 500 numbers of each type such as MID, MOD, ND and VMD respectively are taken from the Kaggle source. The performance of all the methods is assessed using the performance parameters such as classification accuracy (CA), F1, Precision (PR) and Recall (RC). From the results, it is found that the NNT method is capable of providing better classification results in terms of CA, F1, PR and RC as compared to other ML based methods such as SVMN, RFS, NNT, DTR, ADB, NBY, KNNH and SGD.
Originality: In this work, a MI based approach is proposed to carry out the classification of ADMPIs into several types such as MID, MOD, ND and VMD types. The NNT method performs better in terms of CA, F1, PR and RC as compared to LRG, SVMN, RFS, DTR, ADB, NBY, KNNH and SGDC methods.

The economic crisis has a negative impact on the health sector as well as all other sectors. The main purpose of the study is to determine the effect of the economic crises after 2000 on private hospitals in Turkey. For this purpose, a total of fourteen parameters such as the number of private hospitals, the number of beds, the total number of imaging, the number of applications to the physician, the number of inpatients, the total number of operations and the number of physicians were examined. Within the scope of the study, document analysis was carried out as a method. Health Statistics Annuals (2020) belonging to the Ministry of Health were taken as a basis in the said document review. When we look at the historical background of Turkey, it is seen that there was an economic crisis in 2001, 2008 and 2016. The 2001 crisis was excluded due to insufficient data. It has been observed that the number of private hospitals in Turkey has increased every year, regardless of the crisis. No effect of the 2008 crisis on the analyzed parameters was observed. When the parameters are evaluated, it was determined that the economic crisis experienced only in 2016 had a negative impact on private hospitals. This crisis had a negative impact on eight of the fourteen parameters examined.
O caminho epistemológico para educação inclusiva: um ensaio sobre crianças com deficiência visual
Authors: Maria Santos de Arruda Luciana
Published: September 2022

Discutir educação inclusiva requer o entendimento da educação enquanto direito universal, resultado de conquistas sociais, e também da compreensão da diferença como um dado da realidade humana que se expressa nas práticas da educação escolar.  A educação inclusiva contrapõe-se às teorias e epistemologias clássicas da educação que utiliza como pressupostos básicos a homogeneidade, a funcionalidade e a evolução, estando associada a um saber que se diz universal, com dificuldades de atribuir veracidade aos outros saberes (originais). A educação inclusiva parte do pressuposto de que as diferenças se constituem em fator construtivo, e que a vida se constrói nas diferenças e singularidades sociais e a partir de trocas entre experiências diversas. Dessa forma, refletindo sobre os caminhos que possibilitam a construção dos conhecimentos geográficos pelas crianças cegas, escrevi este texto. Assim, a análise sobre a epistemologia converge para uma perspectiva da Geografia Humanista, num primeiro momento em que foram construídos materiais didáticos táteis para alunos do 6º ano. Num segundo momento, foram apresentados metodologias e recursos que culminaram na construção de um livro tátil com crianças cegas em uma turma de 1° ano do Ensino Fundamental no Instituto Benjamin Constant (IBC). Dialogando com a literatura e o processo de alfabetização, o caminho percorrido na pesquisa identificou as expressões espaciais dessas crianças na Geografia da Infância em consonância com a Teoria Histórico-Cultural de Vigotski, mostrando a importância de ouvir a voz das crianças como agentes criadores de linguagens geográficas outras.
Assessing green space structure through urban morphological analysis: the Çağlayan neighbourhood in Northern Nicosia, Cyprus
Authors: Kahouei Saloumeh Khayyat , Cömert Nevter Zafer
Published: September 2022

As cities are growing rapidly and more than half of the world’s population is living in urban areas, the quality of urban settlements has become a vital issue. The significant role of urban green spaces and vegetated areas has received attention from ecologists, environmentalists and planners. However, urban morphologists have only recently begun considering green space, and morphological analyses of green space are still rare. This study addresses this gap in historico-geographical and process typological approaches in order to examine the possibility of identifying ‘Green Space’ (GS) as an individual element in the urban structure. It proposes a systematic framework for assessing GS structure based on existing hierarchical theories in urban morphology that were introduced by M. R. G. Conzen, Caniggia, Kropf and Osmond. The framework is tested on the case study of the Çağlayan neighbourhood in Northern Nicosia to assess the opportunities provided by the framework, its limitations and factors that played a role in its successful implementation.
Health Care Discrimination Experiences of Middle Eastern Women
Authors: Kalbasi Shaida
Published: September 2022

This study examined the types of discriminatory behaviors that Middle Eastern American (MEA) women experience in health care settings. The framework of systemic racism and more specifically, the white racial frame was used to interpret the data. In-depth interviews were conducted with 30 MEA women to gather insight into their discrimination-related experiences in the U.S. health care system. Participants reported numerous examples of both covert and overt discrimination and anti-Middle Eastern racial framing among physicians. Several themes related to the possible triggers of the discrimination emerged, specifically names, language, and accent; national origin; lack of cultural awareness; and appearance. Findings suggest that discrimination in health care settings greatly affects health outcomes; for instance, in this study, reported lack of compliance with follow-up appointments or medication was a major result of perceived discriminatory attitudes and behaviors of physicians. Culturally sensitive care recommendations and a reframing of health care providers attitudes toward minority patients are needed to address the discriminatory attitudes and behaviors reported in this study.

Intersectionality Analysis, the Welfare State and Women's Health
Authors: Bryant Toba , Raphael Dennis
Published: September 2022

This article applies intersectionality analysis to consider women's health and well-being in Canada's welfare state with attention to those occupying vulnerable social locations. Political and economic structures and processes associated with different forms of the welfare state are responsible for producing these vulnerabilities as they differentially distribute economic and social resources amongst the population. Inequities in these distributions create the social inequalities that act through the social determinants of health to spawn health inequalities. The liberal welfare state -- with its dominant institution being the marketplace -- has higher levels of these inequalities than social democratic and conservative welfare states with rather less public policy effort to reduce them. In addition, the acceptance of neoliberalism as a governing ideology has seen Canadian and other governments further reducing the State role in managing the economy and providing economic and social security to citizens. This has had particular implications for those occupying vulnerable social locations such that the intersectionality concept -- combined with welfare state analysis -- provides a lens which can both explan these social and health inequalities and suggest means to reduce them.
Welfare States, Cultural Values and Women's Precarious Work:
Authors: Raphael Dennis
Published: September 2022

While it is well-established that Canadian women are more likely to experience precarious work and the prevalence of this is increasing, greater attention needs to be paid to the contributions that social theory can make to both understanding and responding to this issue. This paper considers recent developments in both welfare state and cultural values theory to provide a framework to explain and respond to women's precarious work situations. Canada's being a liberal welfare state contributes to this problematic situation, but cultural values concerning women's roles may also shapes and maintains this condition. Drawing upon theoretical insights from Esping-Andersen on the welfare state and Pfau-Effinger on cultural values, various means of both understanding and improving the situation are presented.
O uso de referenciais teóricos pós-coloniais e decoloniais em Trabalhos de Conclusão de Curso da UFPE e da UFRPE
Authors: Melo Thiago Pessoa de , Benzaquen Júlia Figueredo
Published: September 2022

Este artigo teve como objetivo analisar o uso de referenciais teóricos pós-coloniais e decoloniais em trabalhos de conclusão de curso de duas Instituições de Ensino Superior (IESs) de Pernambuco. O trabalho dividi-se em dois eixos analíticos, sendo um dedicado a abordar o pensamento decolonial latino-americano e o conceito de “colonialidade do saber” na perspectiva da rede de pesquisadores modernidade/colonialidade e o outro dedicado a uma pesquisa bibliográfica integrativa que lidou com trabalhos de monografias produzidas nos cursos de graduação da Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) e Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco (UFRPE) nos últimos dez anos, nas quais foram usadas pelos/as autores/as referenciais teóricos pós-coloniais e decoloniais. Conclui-se que cada vez mais a temática da colonialidade do saber vem sendo abordada (não apenas em espaços acadêmicos), o que facilita processos de descolonização do saber e a visibilização de temáticas antes não estudadas pela Universidade.
Inserción laboral y disfuncionalidad familiar en jóvenes rurales de la provincia de Caylloma, Arequipa, Perú, 2021
Authors: Bengoa Lazarte Jeannette
Published: September 2022

La investigación busca evidenciar cómo la inserción laboral influye en la disfuncionalidad familiar de los jóvenes rurales de la Provincia de Caylloma (Arequipa-Perú), la escasa demanda laboral en zonas rurales, condiciona a que muchos de estos jóvenes vivan en el péndulo de migraciones estacionales, buscando insertarse en labores extractivas, comercio u oficios temporales en otras zonas de la Región; estos hechos los expone a dinámicas laborales de alta rotación, precarias e inestables y consecuentemente a dinámicas socio familiares disfuncionales. Así mismo, las escasas oportunidades de educación superior para estos jóvenes, truncan sus aspiraciones ante la escasa o nula oferta educación superior en sus zonas, o ante la necesidad de trabajar por motivos de subsistencia, generando en no pocos casos, notable desencuentro entre lo que aspiran o pueden llegar a ser (Urrutia A.,Trivelli, C. 2018).  La investigación es abordada con un enfoque mixto. De nivel explicativo y diseño no experimental. Se estableció tres zonas diferenciadas para el análisis de datos, en base a las características geográficas y socio-económicas diferenciadas. Utiliza el cuestionario validado por expertos y la entrevista a profundidad.
Social impact assessment : a case study of the Durban-based Clothing Bank
Authors:   , Naidoo Keegan
Published: September 2022

This study asks the research question: How do corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives contribute to change in the lives of individuals who have graduated from The Clothing Bank based in Durban? Given the main research question, the purpose of this qualitative case study is to assess the social impact of corporate social responsibility initiatives by using the most significant change (Dart and Davis 2005) as an evaluation technique. The study is framed by Amartya Sen’s (1999) capability approach and uses and adapts its five instrumental freedoms as guiding domains to measure the impact of CSR initiatives. These identified five freedoms are social participation, economic well-being, social opportunities, access to knowledge and protective security. This study addresses issues of human development and social change by highlighting development relations between corporates in the clothing sector and community. The initiative between the Durban-based Clothing Bank project and its corporate retail partners is used as an example to achieve the aim of this study. The most significant change evaluation technique is used to collect data through a four-step process to elicit stories of significant change and most significant change story to evaluate social impact. The sampling strategy used is the non-probability, criterion sampling technique in which 10 individuals who have graduated from the TCB project are purposively selected. This study uses the thematic analysis method to analyse data. The findings from the study reveal that the joint willingness of the study participants, as beneficiaries of CSR initiatives together with the Durban-based Clothing Bank project and its corporate retail partners have the potential to contribute to the emergence of positive changes in the lives of the project beneficiaries. It is advised that corporate entities identify, assess, and manage the significant social impact that such entities have on community-based projects such as TCB project. It was established that this partnership encourages empowerment and the creation of sustainable livelihoods and communities.
Programme Design in the Digitalised New Normal and Learner’s Academic Achievements in the Cameroon Higher Education: The Case of University of Yaoundé I
Authors: Tendongmoh Fossimock Blaise
Published: September 2022

This study investigates the influence of programmes design in the digitalise new normal and learner’s academic achievements in Cameroon state universities. The problem of this study emanates from low quality of knowledge and skill acquired by university students in the context of digitalisation. This quantitative study employs the descriptive survey research design. The simple random sampling technique used collect a sample size 205 participants. Data was collected using questionnaire and interview guide. The Framework technique was used to analyse qualitative data and the spearman ranked correlation with the help of SPSS version 23 was used to test the research hypotheses. Findings revealed that programme design in the digitalise new normal significantly influence learner’s academic achievements: RH1: The correlation coefficient is r = 0.878, P₌0,000˂0,05; indicating that the degree of significance is high. RH2: The correlation coefficient is r = 0.780, P₌0,000˂0,05; indicating that the degree of significance is moderate. RH3: The correlation coefficient is r₌ 0.532, P₌0,000˂0,05; indicating that the degree of significance is high. RH4: The correlation coefficient is r₌ 0.867, P₌0,000˂0,05; indicating that the degree of significance is high. All the four specific hypotheses were confirmed and all null hypotheses rejected. We recommend that these universities in Cameroon and in the sub-Saharan Africa should redesign its programme to suite the digitalise new normal context, organise workshops to train staff on course content, teaching style, simulation and how to exploit the available digital space.
