Authors: Prakoso Hartono Shahrandy , Ryan Bakry Mohammad , Yusuf Chandra
Published: September 2024

Moral hukum dalam penerapan prinsip mengenali pengguna jasa oleh notaris merupakan prinsip utama dalam menggunakan kewenangan notaris dalam transaksi perubahan perseroan terbatas, dimana langkah-langkah dan tindakan diimplementasikan untuk memastikan bahwa notaris menjalankan tugasnya dengan mematuhi kualitas kepatuhan terhadap hukum, mandiri, netral, dan mematuhi etika profesi notaris serta mencegah tindak pidana pencucian uang. Hal ini sejalan dengan integritas, keadilan, dan prinsip moral yang berlaku dalam hukum, baik di lingkungan pemerintahan maupun masyarakat pengguna jasa notaris. Kedudukan prinsip mengenali pengguna jasa bagi notaris berdasarkan moral hukum diilustrasikan melalui dua aspek utama. Pertama, aspek internal yang melibatkan mekanisme pengawasan dan sanksi internal yang memastikan notaris mematuhi prinsip-prinsip tersebut melalui sistem supervisi di dalam organisasi notaris dan majelis pengawas di wilayah DKI Jakarta. Kedua, aspek eksternal melalui koordinasi dengan instansi pemerintah atau pemangku kebijakan untuk memastikan notaris dapat melaksanakan prinsip mengenali pengguna jasa, termasuk melalui kegiatan sosialisasi dan audit kepatuhan di Wilayah DKI JakartaMoral hukum dalam penerapan prinsip mengenali pengguna jasa oleh notaris merupakan prinsip utama dalam menggunakan kewenangan notaris dalam transaksi perubahan perseroan terbatas, dimana langkah-langkah dan tindakan diimplementasikan untuk memastikan bahwa notaris menjalankan tugasnya dengan mematuhi kualitas kepatuhan terhadap hukum, mandiri, netral, dan mematuhi etika profesi notaris serta mencegah tindak pidana pencucian uang.

Dimensions of the Shadow Reforms of Yuri Andropov’s Bureaucratic Management: Lessons from the Myths of the Totalitarian Leadership of the USSR
Authors: Harutyunyan Gevorg
Published: September 2024

The article discusses the issue of bureaucratic leadership and economic reforms in the USSR during the administration of Yu. V. Andropov, the General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. The article analyzes Andropov's consistent policy in the Soviet bureaucratic system and his uncompromising position in the fight against corruption. In this regard, the article emphasizes the years of his leadership, in which the reforms of the Soviet economy occupied a significant place, trying to inspire confidence in the Soviet society and citizens. However, the totalitarian regime of the USSR and the bureaucratic system simply blocked the package of measures proposed by the General Secretary.
An analysis of the works examining the personality and party and state activities of Yu. V. Andropov allows us to conditionally distinguish two periods of the formation and development of the historiography of the problem. The first, personifying the Soviet era, ended with the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. The second covers the 1990s, as well as the beginning of this century. Within the framework of the first period, the activities of Yu. V. Andropov were covered in various works devoted to the problems of modern Soviet history. Against this background, the position of Western researchers turned out to be preferable. In the West, the steady growth of interest in Yu. V. Andropov on the part of Sovietologists was mainly due to his activities as Chairman of the KGB. At the same time, it cannot be denied that, as a rule, the noted works were distinguished by their tendentiousness and bore the imprint of the Cold War.

Authors: Pratiwi Retna
Published: September 2024

This journal explores the reconstruction of death insurance regulations for workers who are not wage recipients, aimed at maintaining the sustainability of the death social security fund in Indonesia. The background of this study stems from the challenges faced by non-wage workers in accessing adequate social security benefits, particularly in the event of death, which is a critical aspect of social protection. The objective of the research is to evaluate the current regulatory framework and propose reforms that ensure equitable access and sustainability of the death benefit program for all workers, regardless of their wage status. The study employs a qualitative research method, utilizing legal analysis and case studies to assess the effectiveness of existing regulations and identify gaps that hinder the optimal functioning of the death insurance system. The results indicate significant disparities in the protection provided to wage and non-wage workers, highlighting the need for a more inclusive approach. The proposed regulatory reconstruction emphasizes the importance of expanding coverage, enhancing contributions, and improving the management of the social security fund to ensure long-term sustainability. The conclusions drawn from this research underscore the urgency of regulatory reforms that align with the principles of social justice and financial viability, ensuring that all workers, particularly those who are non-wage recipients, are adequately protected under the death social security program. This study provides a roadmap for policymakers and stakeholders to address the existing challenges and strengthen the social security framework in Indonesia.

Authors: Mathew Mr. Arun , Konnur Dr. Rajesh G
Published: September 2024

Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a major surgical operation where atheromatous blockages in a patient’s coronary arteries are bypassed with harvested venous or arterial conduits. The bypass restores blood flow to the ischemic myocardium which, in turn, restores function, viability, and relieves anginal symptoms. With this model, the person is viewed as an adaptive system composed of input, control process, effectors and output. Input is the stimulus; control processes are coping mechanisms. Effectors are the changes in the four adaptive modes. Output is the effective or ineffective response to the situation and feedback is the responses to the system. In this study, the focus is on the maintenance of health and prevention of complications among CABG patients. SETTING AND DESIGN: A quantitative approach was considered for this study. The research design selected for the study was one group pre-experimental pre-test post-test design. . The target population in this study is caregivers of CABG patients. In this study the sample consisted of 250caregivers of CABG patients admitted in selected hospitals of Gujarat, full filling the inclusion criteria.

Efeitos das mudanças climáticas globais no comportamento hidrológico da bacia do rio Jucu
Authors:   , Catein Juliete de Paulo
Published: September 2024

A gestão eficiente dos recursos hídricos em bacias hidrográficas requer uma compreensão abrangente dos padrões climáticos atuais e futuros. A modelagem hidrológica desempenha um papel crucial nesse processo, e a precisão dos resultados depende da qualidade dos dados climáticos utilizados. Nesta dissertação, foi realizada uma avaliação com bases de dados meteorológicos e sua influência na modelagem hidrológica da bacia do rio Jucu em cenários passados para aplicação em projeções futuras, utilizando as bases de dados do protocolo CMIP6 (Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6) e XAVIER como referência. O modelo SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) foi empregado para realizar estas modelagens hidrológica da bacia. Os resultados evidenciaram diferenças nos padrões de vazões e precipitação entre as bases de dados, afetando os resultados da modelagem hidrológica. Na comparação dos resultados, os dados XAVIER, mostraram-se mais apropriados para a modelagem. Essas comparações ressaltam a importância de selecionar adequadamente as bases de dados climáticos para uma gestão sustentável dos recursos hídricos em cenários futuros. A abordagem adotada consistiu em realizar 5 fases distintas para o desenvolvimento da metodologia: i) Elaboração de um banco de dados que inclui informações sobre o tipo e uso do solo, topografia e clima, essenciais para a implementação do Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) na simulação do ciclo hidrológico Bacia do Rio Jucu utilizando o SWAT; ii) Calibração e validação do SWAT; iii) Compreensão e análise dos resultados históricos de calibração XAVIER e CMIP6_HISTÓRICO; iv) Execução das simulações dos cenários de mudanças climáticas futuras, com os dados CMIP6_FUTURO SSP2-4.5 e SSP5-8.5; v) Análise dos resultados obtidos nas simulações, proporcionando uma avaliação crítica dos impactos hidrológicos em condições futuras. Averiguou-se que i) O modelo hidrológico realiza uma simulação precisa das condições da bacia durante o período histórico, sugerindo que possui robustez para realizar previsões hidrológicas com os dados XAVIER; ii) A tendência no geral em relação as mudanças climáticas é de redução das vazões, mesmo tendo uma aumento nas vazões durante os meses chuvosos dezembro a março, e não tendo mudanças no uso e ocupação do solo.

Unveiling the future of land reclamation for mining areas: plant species responses to climate change- related events in the Brazilian Legal Amazon
Authors:   , Alves Maísa Quintiliano
Published: September 2024

The increase in atmospheric CO2 concentrations triggers a transient response in climate, leading to global temperature rise. As the climate warms, extreme events intensify. Given the global significance of the Amazon and the increasing efforts for environmental recovery in the region, this study aimed to understand the relationship between local land-use changes and the occurrence of extreme climate events in an area influenced by mining activities within the Brazilian Legal Amazon. Additionally, it sought to assess the impact of water deficit on the photosynthesis and growth of fast-growing species used in the reclamation of mining areas, growing under elevated atmospheric CO2 levels. Results suggested that large-scale deforestation has a regional impact occasionally outweighing local effect. Significant trends reveal a general pattern of drought that has been more intense in the north of the study area, regardless of land cover, whether preserved or deforested. Moreover, the dry season is getting drier, but the wet season is not getting wetter over the entire area, and extreme events are becoming more frequent. Regarding the impact on vegetation, our findings do not provide substantial evidence that the assessed species used in the reclamation of mining areas in the region will be profoundly impacted by the rise in atmospheric CO2 and intense drought events— particularly concerning plant growth and biomass production. Nonetheless, they might be affected by extreme heat. Ultimately, notable attention is directed towards a considerable reduction in the emergence of Pigeon pea individuals, which declined by half in resource-rich environments (elevated atmospheric CO2 and irrigation). This decline is likely a consequence of interspecific competition within the chambers and may indicate a shift in the composition of developing vegetation. Keywords: Climate-change. Drought. Land-reclamation. The-Amazon. Mining.

The study explored the in-depth experiences of spiritual well-being and its role on psychological well-being among clergy. In particular, the study looked into the lived-experiences of spiritual well-being through the quality of relationship one has within each component of spiritual well-being and its role on psychological well-being among novice clergy and senior priests because novice clergy and senior priests are the most important stages in priestly life. There is a big difference between these two groups in terms of number of years in priestly life, year of ordination, age and occupation. In order to achieve breadth and depth in the understanding of this phenomenon, the researcher adopted a qualitative approach to examine the in-depth experiences of spiritual well-being and its role on psychological well-being among clergy. Twenty clergy (10 novice clergy and 10 senior priests), who expressed their willingness to participate, were selected for in-depth interviews. The findings specifically showed that the experience of spiritual well-being within the personal components benefits personal growth, environmental control, self-acceptance, purpose in life and emotional stability among the novice clergy. The experience of spiritual well-being in environmental component, on the other hand, benefits peace of mind, self-acceptance and others-acceptance, increased ability of problem solving skills, increased happiness and a better physical health among senior priests.

Competence-Based Curriculum (CBC) is being adopted in Kenya, emphasizing practical skills for real-world application. While the effects of CBC on learners have been studied, its impact on parents’ mental health remains unexplored. This study explores the perceptions of parents on the CBC in Nairobi County, Kenya. Using Epstein’s parental involvement model and Cognitive Behavioral Theory as the theoretical framework, a qualitative research approach was employed. The researcher targeted parents with children who are CBC learners of upper primary in Public Day Schools in Nairobi County. Data was collected from 12 participants sampled through multi stage sampling technique. Data was collected using detailed interviews and questionnaires on parents’ perceptions of CBC and analyzed thematically. Findings reveal that parents generally view CBC positively, believing it equips children with practical skills and values essential for their future success. Parents also parents appreciate CBC for strengthening family bonds and fostering innovative learning approaches. However, they also encounter challenges like feeling overwhelmed by CBC’s demands, confusion over assessment methods, and struggles to support their children due to educational and cultural barriers. The study recommends improving CBC implementation and parental involvement by focusing on clear communication between schools and parents, supporting those without skills to support their children’s projects.
Effective Implementation of Gender and Development Policy in a Public Tertiary Health Institution in Maiduguri, Borno State, Nigeria
Authors: Maduka Ann Amaka
Published: September 2024

The global introduction of the millennium Development Goals has drawn National attentions to pursuing gender and development policies, geared towards achieving gender equality. The Nigerian government keyed into this policy, replaced the erstwhile National Policy on women adopted in the year 2000 with National gender policy in 2006 The 2006 Gender and Development Policy was reviewed in Nigeria; which led to the 2021-2026 gender and development policy. The 2021-2026 policy draws from the 2006 National Gender and development Policy whose overall goal was to provide ‘strategic policy guidance for mainstreaming gender at all levels as well as address the inequalities that exist in the socio-economic sphere, and combat all forms of violence against women and girls, among other things. The policy goal is aimed at eliminating cultural, religious gender based biases and harmful cultural and religious practices which tend to reproduce inequalities in gender roles relations in the Nigerian society and thereby giving a subordinate status to women compared to men. Hence, development opportunities continue to elude women since the policy failed to challenge the structure which reproduces gender inequality and overall disempowerment of women. This study therefore examined effective implementation of gender and development policy in public health institutions in Nigeria. It is clear that implementation of gender and development policy is not effective and contrary to expectation. With the new and revised policy in place, the Nigerian government can learn from the previous policies and ensure that there is clear tracking and monitoring of the impact of each of the objectives so as to fully do away with gender inequality in the country; recommendations were also made.
Income-Generating Activities and Economic Empowerment of Rural Women in the Mion District, Ghana: A Phenomenological Study
Authors: Asantewa Juliana
Published: September 2024

The economic empowerment of rural women is pivotal to sustainable development, particularly in areas where traditional gender roles and limited access to resources impede their economic participation. This phenomenological study investigates the lived experiences of rural women in the Mion District of Ghana, focusing on their engagement in income-generating activities (IGAs) and the associated challenges and opportunities. Employing qualitative research methods, including in-depth interviews and focus group discussions, the study reveals that these women predominantly engage in farming, trading shea butter and dawadawa, and charcoal production. Despite their significant contributions to household incomes and the local economy, these women face substantial barriers such as inadequate access to education and training, insufficient infrastructure, and restrictive cultural norms. The findings underscore the critical role of intergenerational knowledge transfer, with many participants learning their skills from their mothers. However, the lack of formal training and support from governmental and non-governmental organizations limits their ability to enhance productivity and profitability. The study emphasizes the need for targeted interventions to improve access to modern agricultural techniques, business management skills, and financial resources. Additionally, policy reforms promoting gender equality in economic activities are essential to creating an enabling environment for these women. This research contributes to the broader discourse on rural development and gender equity by highlighting the resilience and adaptability of rural women and the necessity for inclusive policies and support mechanisms. The insights gained from this study offer valuable implications for policymakers, development practitioners, and stakeholders committed to fostering the economic empowerment of rural women, ultimately contributing to sustainable development goals. Future research should continue to explore and address the unique challenges faced by rural women, ensuring their active participation in the economic landscape and enhancing their socio-economic well-being.

Cryptocurrencies are digital currencies void of any support from regulatory body that is currently in vogue as a medium of exchange and an investment security. This paper examines the accounting treatment for cryptocurrency from the perspective of IFRS and AAOIFI accounting standards and propose actions to standard setters on the best way to treat the Crypto transactions in accounting reports. A proper accounting treatment will allow for a fair reporting of crypto related transactions and facilitate users of financial statements to make objective assessment of this new invention. A content analysis was conducted to review all major accounting standards issued by accounting standards setting bodies for possible accounting treatment for cryptocurrencies. To better understand the issue in practice, an analysis of accounting treatment of cryptocurrencies by 2 companies also was conducted. This study found that there is no suitable accounting standard that could objectively be applied for cryptocurrencies. For example, from the perspective of the current accounting standards, cryptocurrencies match the definition of inventory if it is used as a commodity for broker-trader and intangible asset for others respectively. It is suggested that there an urgent need for the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) to comprehensively develop accounting standard for cryptocurrency, specifically to develop a specific category for this type of assets to allow a standard treatment for cryptocurrency and fill the gap in the IFRS.

The study aimed to address the farmers financing practices in Poland, France, Germany and Romania and to develop recommendations for reducing credit constraints in Ukrainian agriculture. Providing farms with financial resources is one of the most critical tasks for maintaining national resilience and stability in difficult times of military resistance. The study analysed statistical and economic indicators, the structure of farms and land use, financial instruments, features of financial institutions, practices and experience in lending in Poland, France, Germany, Romania and Ukraine. The impact of gross fixed capital formation on the volume of farm sales in comparable countries was addressed. The main reasons for the shortage of financing for medium, small, and micro-enterprises in the agro-industrial sector and numerous households that run private farms without establishing a legal entity were identified. The study noted that the main consequences of limited access to credit are low efficiency of land use, a decrease in gross domestic product and a deterioration in the viability of farms. The study analysed the impact of the state programme “Affordable Loans 5-7-9%” and other programmes to support medium, small and micro enterprises created with the help of international partners on the financial support of agricultural businesses. In recent years, these new financial instruments have significantly increased access to loans for farmers. The study addressed proposals of economic scientists of these countries on the elimination of credit restrictions in the activity of small agricultural producers. The analysis highlights the problems of farmers' lending that are common to all countries, as well as the many years of experience that have gradually resolved these issues. Recommendations on the implementation of the necessary measures for the timely receipt of affordable credit resources by small rural enterprises and family farms in Ukraine have been developed

Given the significance of fish farming as a promising sector of Ukraine’s agriculture, and the Mykolaiv, Odesa, and Kherson regions are characterised by a significant number of natural and artificial water bodies, the study of aquatic bioresource catching indicators in the south is both important and timely. The research aimed to determine trends in aquatic bioresource catching in southern Ukraine during the period 2018-2023 and to analyse the factors influencing the extraction of aquatic bioresources. This article presents overall catch statistics, as well as catch data for inland waters of the south and aquaculture conditions over the past six years. It has been established that the catch of aquatic biological resources in southern Ukraine has been declining each year from 2018 to 2023. The negative trends in aquatic bioresource catching, both in aquaculture and natural water bodies, are linked to several factors. In particular, the decline in catches has been influenced by: COVID-19; the unstable military and political situation in Ukraine, associated with Russian military aggression; outdated material and technical base of fishing enterprises; lack of government subsidies and foreign investment in the sector; imperfections in the systems of control and regulation of the extraction of aquatic bioresources; and irrational use of the bioproductive potential of water bodies in southern Ukraine. Based on a scientific analysis of the dynamics of aquatic bioresource extraction in southern Ukraine and the identification of key factors contributing to the decline in catches, a set of measures has been developed to positively impact the fishing industry. These measures include: attracting foreign investment in fish farming; improving the quality of monitoring, regulation, and control over aquatic bioresource catching at local, regional, and state levels; restoring critical fish farming infrastructure damaged by Russian aggression; ensuring sustainable fisheries management; and introducing EU best practices into Ukrainian fish farming. The scientific results obtained from this research can be used in practice to ensure the sustainable development of fisheries in southern Ukraine
