Prevention of Online Gambling Crime as an Effort to Protect Children in Indonesia from the Perspective of Criminology
Authors: Islami Michelia Zahra , Madjid Abdul , Al-Uyun Dhia
Published: September 2024

Throughout 2023, KiDi's pediatric clinic in Pejaten, South Jakarta treated nearly 50 children addicted to online gambling. From initially high school and junior high school teenagers, in the last three months it has been elementary school children in grades 5 and 6, mostly from upper middle class families. In the long run, their quality of life will deteriorate further. The impact of online gambling starts from no passion for life, not being able to focus on work, even getting into debt and the most fatal is to commit suicide. The focus of criminology is to find knowledge or reasons about social symptoms such as crime in society or why defendants commit their evil deeds. The purpose of this research is to find out and analyze regulations related to online gambling and child protection and analyze the causes of children committing online gambling in order to find out what prevention strategies are appropriate to minimize online gambling by children. Regulations related to online gambling are regulated as in Articles 303, 303 bis of the Criminal Code, Articles 426-427 of the new Criminal Code, and Article 27 paragraph (2) of the ITE Law. Meanwhile, child protection regulations are regulated in Law No. 35 of 2014 concerning Child Protection. Prevention efforts can be carried out by supervising the association of children and providing an understanding that online gambling is a bad act and can be charged with criminal sanctions.
Implementing European values in constitutional and legislative framework in Serbia – case of judiciary
Authors: Đorđević Miroslav
Published: September 2024

The question of sovereignty was in focus of Serbian scholarly and wider public recently, when the constitutional and legislative changes in the domain of judiciary took place. The idea of introducing and implementing relevant European standards in the legal framework of Serbia was under scrutiny by some mostly political players, with claims that “aligning with the EU concepts presents an endangering of the sovereignty of Serbian citizens, as its bearers”. Since the processes of writing drafts for Constitutional amendments and later new set of judicial laws included the active participation of Venice commission, some criticism of “a foreign element having role in creation of the supreme national legal act” took place as well. In this paper author explores the ever-changing face of sovereignty in the light of modern advances including technological ones, digital age, faster than ever communication, as well as a concept of “sovereign self-limitation of sovereignty” which is justifiable both from the political-democratic and constitutional law-scholarly point of view. The judicial reform was not only necessary and beneficial for the sake of achieving formally strategic goal of the Republic of Serbia – to join EU, but also (or better put – in the first place) for the sake of its citizens – strengthening rule of all and democracy in Serbia.
The “specific intent” to commit genocide under the UN Genocide Convention of 1948: the Case of South Africa v. Israel before the International Court of Justice
Authors: Hitaj Erjon
Published: September 2024

In January 2024, a case brought by South Africa against Israel occupied the attention of the International Court of Justice (ICJ). South Africa has invoked the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, accusing Israel of carrying out genocidal acts during its military operations in Gaza, following the Hamas attack on 7 October 2023. Key charges include direct commission, complicity, and failure to prevent genocide. The ICJ responded to South Africa's request by issuing precautionary measures, without however ruling on whether genocide effectively occurred. These measures are intended to prevent further damage and preserve evidence. Specifically, Israel was instructed not to take actions that could aggravate the situation or jeopardize the resolution of the conflict, and to provide periodic reports on actions taken in response to the Court order. This legal provision is based on the "plausibility" of the accusations, a preliminary stage of the legal process which does not require conclusive proof, but only a sufficient indication that the accusations may be founded. The decision highlighted the complexity of the definition of genocide and the difficulty in demonstrating specific intent, which is essential for a final ruling of genocide under the Convention. International reactions have been polarized. Israel rejected the charges, citing the need to defend its sovereignty and national security against acts of terrorism, while various Palestine supporters interpreted the decision as recognition of the severity of Israeli operations in Gaza. The outcome of this case will not only influence international relations and the global perception of international humanitarian and human rights law but could also set an important precedent in the legal handling of genocide allegations. The next phase of the ICJ proceedings, which will include a more detailed examination of the evidence and legal arguments, will be crucial for the future of relations between Israel and the international community, as well as for the very concept of state responsibility in armed conflicts. In this survey we’ll try to examine whether the behavior of Israeli military forces might have conducted operations or actions falling within the hypothesis of genocide as provided for in the UN 1948 Convention, object of the legal dispute.
L'art.11 della Costituzione nel pensiero di Rolando Quadri
Authors: Granara Daniele
Published: September 2024

The art. 11 of the Constitution places the pacifist principle and the internationalist principle among the fundamental principles, which outline the form of state of the Italian Republic. The trait d'union is constituted by the pacifist element, which characterizes the entire constitutional system, determining the line of action of the Republic on the international level, which can never ignore the diplomatic solution to conflicts. Rolando Quadri, according to his essentially juridical-formal vision of international relations, believes that partial transfers of sovereignty on a functional level are inconceivable, however identifying (but this may be questionable) the limitations of sovereignty with partial transfers of sovereignty: it is evident then that, just as the State cedes a part of its sovereignty by its authoritative choice, so, by its analogous sovereign authoritative choice, that portion can recover. However, the "limitation", in the letter and spirit of the art. 11 of the Italian Constitution is not simply a partial transfer, but it is an irrevocable partial transfer, as occurs in the formation process of federal states, such as the United States of America. If the State, using its authoritative and sovereign force, intended to recover the portion of sovereignty irrevocably ceded, it would violate the art. 11 and would carry out a "coup d'état". This is not intended to devalue the precious contribution of the Quadri theory in the reconstruction of the European order, but its completion leads us to consider the EU a process of integration between states towards a federal model. This is the next step, which Quadri does not appreciate, since, in his extraordinary concreteness and lucidity, he does not assign importance of positive law to a value scheme.
Roman constitutional model as an instrument of peace in post-conflictual societies – negotiated sovereignty and consociational democracy
Authors: Aličić Samir
Published: September 2024

The subject of this paper is the search for new possible constitutional solutions for re-uniting the states divided by ongoing or frozen conflicts. Based on some recent experiences, especially Dayton accord that ended the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, author believes that roman constitutional model, as opposed to commonly diffused Germanic or Anglo-Saxon model, constitutes a more useful resource of rules that could be basis for developing new legal instruments to resolve current and future conflicts. Among them, of special interest are the idea of complex electoral system with guaranteed seats for certain societal groups and voting by not necessarily territorial-based electoral units, imperative mandate as an element of direct democracy, the “negative power”, i.e. the possibility of some political bodies to block the decisions of other bodies, and the decision-making by consensus of the members of political bodies.
What was/is the alternative to the Brussels agreement from 2013 between Serbia and Kosovo*
Authors: Manojlović Savo
Published: September 2024

In this paper the author states that neither in the past nor now in the present, the history of the conflict between the Serbs and the Albanians in Kosovo has not been so black or white as both parties-are trying to demonstrate. Instead of the new division on winners and losers, it is necessary to take into consideration the principle of reciprocity. Diametrically opposed position should be reconciled thorough the principle of double sovereignty and high degree of autonomy for the Serbian territorial entity in Kosovo. The representatives of both Serbia and Kosovo should base their agreement on the SC Resolution 1244 and the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice, taking into consideration factual reality and the opposite positions of both parties regarding the status of Kosovo. The prime objective is to enable functional and peaceful coexistence of all the nations in Kosovo, especially between the Serbs and Albanians. Kosovo would be formally considered as a part of Serbia, but Kosovo institutions would function fully independent. The jurisdictions of the Serbian Entity (SE) would be regulated in the scope of unresolved and disputed Kosovo autonomy. The same should be made thorough Kosovo legal system, with reference to Kosovo independence and integrity. Both legal systems should provide high degree of autonomy for Kosovo Serbs. Serbia should declared that a separate legal system has been established in Kosovo, according to SC Resolution 1244, and it would imply the acceptance of factual reality and at the same time it would be according to the principle of fundamental autonomy, which was proclaimed by the Resolution. Kosovo Albanians thorough its legal system should establish high degree of territorial autonomy for Serbs, that would include legislative, executive and judicial power. Different mechanisms from the comparative federal system are used-in the process of construction of this new and original „double sovereignty“ concept. In this paper many factors have been taken in to consideration: the diametrically opposed position of the Serbian and Albanian side; the position and geopolitical interests of the most powerful countries (USA, Great Britain, Germany, France support the Kosovo independence while Russia and China side with Serbia); disagreement of international Community about Kosovo status; Kosovo secession from Serbia as international precedent that will serve as a good argument for all territories with similar pretensions; processes of European integration for Serbia and Kosovo.
EU law and the sovereignty of member states: between monism, dualism, and the reality of EU law
Authors: Pace Lorenzo Federico
Published: September 2024

This contribution aims to clarify how neither the dualist theory — as reconstructed by Rolando Quadri — nor the monist theory — as reconstructed through the “constitutional-statal” paradigm — allows defining the relationship between EU law and the legal orders of the member states in a way that adheres to the reality of the Union. To properly define this relationship, it is necessary, following Hans Kelsen’s “advice,” to identify what the “positive law” contained in the Union Treaties, as desired by the member states and interpreted by the Court of Justice, provides.
Uno sguardo (d)alla sovranita’, tra politica, diritto e organizzazioni (statali)
Authors: Gazzetta Cristina
Published: September 2024

Lo Stato contemporaneo, che vede organizzazioni, azioni e culture strettamente connesse al suo interno, si trova al giorno d’oggi parte attiva e passiva di inevitabili cambiamenti causati da fenomeni importanti quanto travolgenti, quali la globalizzazione e le continue ondate migratorie. V’è da chiedersi dunque se l’elemento-strumento della sovranità sia (ancora) utile ai fini della identificazione e della stessa sopravvivenza dello Stato tra gli Stati e ai fini del mantenimento della democrazia al suo interno, o invece debba ricorrersi ad altri concetti come il concetto di governance, intesa qui nel senso di strumento inclusivo e partecipativo dei diversi attori (politici, giuridici, sociali ed economici).
Declinazioni di sovranità statale nella comunità globalizzata in movimento
Authors: Fisichella Daniela
Published: September 2024

‘Sovranità’ è una qualità giuridica dello stato, i cambiamenti della comunità internazionale non incidono quindi sulla sua definizione concettuale, ma sulla sua estensione. La sovranità statale si è ridimensionata dopo il 1945 per l’erosione del dominio riservato e la diffusione crescente di fattori di crisi, che impongono un impegno negoziale costante come metodo prioritario di svolgimento delle relazioni internazionali, non più utilizzato solo all’inasprimento di possibili tensioni. La situazione attuale, stridente, evidenzia una sovranità statale che vuole essere tantopiù protagonista imperiosa quanto più numerosi sono i fattori che la limitano. L’esperienza del XXI secolo e la proliferazione di istanze di disgregazione per gli equilibri già incerti e instabili nella comunità internazionale, sembrano confermare che l’evoluzione della dimensione negoziale della sovranità statale appare come la più efficace nella prevenzione delle crisi e che l’esercizio unilaterale della potestà d’imperio non produce, in epoca contemporanea, quell’impatto risolutivo del disegno politico statale che aveva in passato, mentre aumentano ovunque le diseguaglianze.
European market and state sovereignty tested by environmental change and climate migrants
Authors: Tomaselli Alessandro
Published: September 2024

This contribution aims to underline the link between climate change and the related migratory waves, on the one hand, and the inevitable implications regarding the policies and, even before that, the concept of sovereignty towards European states and institutions, on the other. In particular, to this end we will try to highlight how these two factors will most likely force the entire system belonging to the Old Continent to remodulate its traditional political, institutional, economic, legal and social paradigms. On the other hand, it is undeniable that it is increasingly urgent to overcome the classic concept of state sovereignty, understood as the exclusive power of a single institutional apparatus over a specific territory in place of a notion of shared sovereignty. The methodology used for this purpose will proceed in a threefold direction: first of all, the first will be based on an analysis of the tools provided by the European Union to face climate change, as well as to manage migration from non-EU countries; finally, we will try to propose essentially socio-legal solutions, such as, the institution of european eco-citizenship.
Comparative analysis of the EU AI Act and the CoE framework convention on AI, human rights, democracy and the rule of law
Authors: Mihajlović Aleksandar
Published: September 2024

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is used in many aspects of everyday life providing a variety of benefits for its users, as well as provoking different risks of violations of human rights. Beside the fact that AI accumulates a big profit for companies and develops economies, it is still a “black box” which effects to societies are not predictable at all. Leaving AI as a global phenomenon unregulated at the market can provoke legal uncertainty, undermine the rule of law, as well as decrease economic growth. In December 2023, the Council of the EU and the EU Parliament reached the political agreement to adopt the Regulation on Artificial Intelligence (EU AI Act) which will be the first horizontal legally binding act in the world in this field. The Council of Europe’s Committee of Ministers adopted the Council of Europe Framework Convention on Artificial Intelligence, Human Rights, Democracy and the Rule of Law (Framework Convention) on 17 May 2024. The aim of this investigation is to make a comparative analysis how AI has been regulated by the EU AI Act and the Framework Convention, introducing their similarities and differences. The doctrinal and descriptive methods will be used for achieving this aim.

Authors: Stanciu Ioana
Published: September 2024

In this article, we determined the chemical composition of butanoic acid using FTIR spectroscopy. It is a short chain saturated fatty acid found in the form of esters in animal fats and plant oils. Acid butanoic is used  in the manufacture of esters for artificial flavourings, as a food additive, in the manufacture of varnishes, and in decalcifying hides used in the manufacture of perfume, flavourings, pharmaceuticals, and disinfectants, used as an important flavouring agent in a number of food, including beer and may be present in cosmetic and detergent preparation. From the spectroscopy data, it appears that it is composed of groups: hydroxyl O-H, C-H stretching vibrations and -C=O stretching vibration.
Dependencia de recursos y marginalización cultural: el caso de Iruhito en el altiplano boliviano
Authors: Pérez Arias Adolfo Enrique , Flores Pérez Andrea
Published: September 2024

El ambiente restringido y especializado ha condicionado que los grupos humanos tengan que desarrollarse dentro un marco de dependencia hacia la producción, acceso, e intercambio de recursos dentro de ese entorno. Esta dependencia ha conducido a generar relaciones asimétricas con otras sociedades buscando complementar los recursos disponibles. Además, es probable que, la singularidad étnico cultural de la comunidad objeto de estudio, haya generado condiciones de desventaja en dicha negociación. La comunidad de Iruhito, situada junto al río Desaguadero en el altiplano boliviano, ha existido desde el Período Formativo hasta la actualidad, y a lo largo de su historia ha desarrollado estrategias particulares para aprovechar los recursos del río, pero esta dependencia ha resultado en su marginación cultural y social por otros grupos que los consideran "primitivos" debido a su conexión única con el entorno fluvial. La evidencia arqueológica y etnográfica respalda la idea de que la especialización extrema en la producción de recursos conduce a relaciones de dependencia, jerarquía y poder a largo plazo.

Authors: Syihabuddin Muhammad Arif , Nafiuddin Muhammad
Published: September 2024

Madrasah, as an Islamic educational institution, plays a crucial role in shaping the moderate character of students. This research aimed to analyze the actualization of Islamic moderation values in madrasah. A qualitative method was employed for this research. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and document analysis. The findings indicated that the madrasahs endeavored to actualize Islamic moderation values through a curriculum that encompasses religious, ethical, and moral teachings of Islam. The actualization of moderate Islamic values was supported by extracurricular activities such as religious studies, seminars, and social events. The values of moderation being implemented include: 1) The value of tolerance (tasammuh); 2) Tajrid; 3) al-Tawasuth; 4) Al-Muwajahah; 5) Al-tawāzun; 6) Al-i’tidal; 7) Collaboration (musyarakah); 9) Harmony, promoting unity, integrity, and discipline; and 10) Al muhafadzatu a’la qodimi al sholeh wa al akhdzu bi jadidi al ashlah. However, this research also identified several challenges, such as limited resources and difficulties in understanding the life context of the students. In conclusion, the madrasah has significant potential to become an educational institution capable of producing a generation that lives and practices the values of moderate Islam in Indonesia.

Published: September 2024

In the current era with various children's problems, one of which is children's loss of interest in entering the mosque and less interest in participating in activities at the mosque. Seeing this, all parties, including the government, parents, community, teachers and stakeholders, have a big obligation to overcome this problem. School is an educational institution that plays an active role in the implementation and application of religious education for children, therefore it is the desire of parents to have sons and daughters who are intelligent, pious, hafidz of the Koran and whose hearts are attached to the mosque. That is what inspired Laznas Nurul Hayat and the Khairunnas Education Foundation to present a new program, namely School in the Mosque. This research aims to determine the implementation process of the mosque-based Islamic education program at Khairunnas 2 Elementary School Surabaya and to find out what are the supporting and inhibiting factors for implementing the mosque-based Islamic education program at Khairunnas 2 Elementary School Surabaya. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The techniques used by researchers to collect data are observation, interviews and documentation. The data analysis technique uses the Miles & Huberman model. The results of this research show that the Khairunnas Education Foundation is a foundation founded by LAZNAS Nurul Hayat which focuses on institutional service to the world of education in Indonesia. Founded in 2018 in Surabaya. Currently, Islamic education has developed at various levels of education starting from early childhood education (KB-TK), elementary school, middle school, high school and college (KEPQ). One of them is SD Khairunnas 2 Surabaya. SD Khairunnas 2 Surabaya has implemented a mosque-based Islamic education program and collaborates with the As-shobirin mosque and Al-haq mosque. The process of implementing the Islamic education program at SD Khairunnas 2 Surabaya can be influenced by four variables, namely: (1) communication, (2) resources, (3) disposition, and (4) bureaucratic structure.

Pengaruh Pendidikan Akhlak Berbasis Budaya Jawa terhadap Perilaku Remaja di Kediri
Authors: Widyasmoro Hari
Published: September 2024

This study explores the influence of Javanese culture-based moral education on adolescent behaviour in Kediri. Using a qualitative approach, this study collected data through interviews, observations, and questionnaires involving adolescents aged 13-18 years old. The results show that values such as gotong royong, respect for parents, and simplicity have been well internalised by teenagers and reflected in their daily behaviour. The study also found that Javanese culture-based moral education is effective in shaping responsible and ethical adolescent characters, although the challenges of modernisation often create tensions between traditional values and global influences. The implications of this study highlight the importance of integrating cultural values in the education curriculum as well as the need for adaptation to deal with the influence of modernisation. Suggestions for further research include the study of the adaptation of cultural values in the context of globalisation and the development of holistic educational strategies. The findings provide important insights for the development of culture-based character education in Kediri and other regions in Indonesia.

Komersialisasi Pesantren: Tantangan dan Peluang dalam Mempertahankan Keaslian Pendidikan Islam di Indonesia
Authors: Jamroji Bagus
Published: September 2024

This study explores the impact of commercialisation on pesantren education in Java, particularly in maintaining the authenticity of its traditional values. Pesantren are faced with the challenge of modernisation that encourages the adoption of the national curriculum and cooperation with the private sector, which may reduce the focus on religious education. This research uses the literature study method to analyse the challenges and opportunities faced by pesantren. The results show that commercialisation, although it can erode traditional values and increase inequality in access to education, also provides opportunities for pesantren to innovate in curriculum, improve facilities, and adopt modern teaching methods. In conclusion, with the right strategies, pesantren can maintain their identity while adapting to market demands, thus remaining relevant in the changing social and economic context.
Optimizing Surveillance Satellites for the Synthetic Theater Operations Research Model
Authors: Warner Steven M. , Royset Johannes O.
Published: September 2024

The Synthetic Theater Operations Research Model (STORM) simulates theater-level conflict and requires inputs about utilization of surveillance satellites to search large geographical areas. We develop a mixed-integer linear optimization model that prescribes plans for how satellites and their sensors should be directed to best search an area of operations. It also specifies the resolution levels employed by the sensors to ensure a suitable fidelity of the resulting images. We solve large-scale instances of the model involving up to 22 million variables and 11 million constraints in scenarios derived from STORM. On average, the model yields 55% improvement in search coverage relative to an existing heuristic algorithm in STORM.
From FMECA to Decision: A Fully Bayesian Reliability Process
Authors: Hollis Andrew , Moore Timothy , Wilson Alyson , Clark Nicholas
Published: September 2024

Reliability testing of complex military systems is often hindered by the difficulty or cost of the testing. Therefore, conventional methodologies that rely on repeated measurements under differing conditions cannot be used. However, these systems are often designed using subcomponents that do have testing data available. In this manuscript, we demonstrate how Bayesian methodologies can be used throughout the testing process to combine subcomponent reliability score, under various levels of certainty, in order to inform, and maximize the impact of, a small number of full system tests. We show how this can be used for the U.S. Army’s long-range precision fires lines of effort and conclude that Bayesian inference should be incorporated into future experimental design for these complex systems.
Revealing Bridges in Social Networks
Authors: Leinart James Andrew , Deckro Richard
Published: September 2024

Social groups and networks are ubiquitous, and each network member typically has a role or roles in associated interactions. One such member identified in social network literature is a bridge, which connects two or more groups, and is an element of only one of the groups; inferred from literature is the notion that bridges play a key role in networks. At different times and for various reasons, network and group components may be unrevealed. An example is a terrorist network; the terrorists may know who comprises their network, but a military or security organization that is attempting to dismantle the organization is unlikely to know all of the individuals and/ or their interactions and roles. Consequently, the ability to characterize and detect bridges could be valuable in the national security structure’s efforts since such members can play a key role in networks. This article addresses the associated problem: Given a network of groups, for which the information about each group consists of individuals, their attributes, and (only) their intra-group relations, identify which individual (or individuals) is a bridge node. Additionally, an approach is presented for detecting that a bridge is missing from a group, i.e., inferring the existence of a bridge from group data that does not contain the bridge in its membership, the bridge’s attributes, nor the bridge’s contacts. Accordingly, a method for recreating the ground truth network once a bridge’s existence has been detected is given. Lastly, the potential application of these approaches to networks other than social networks is discussed.

Pengaruh Pemanasan Berulang Media Nutrient Agar Terhadap Hasil Uji Sensitivitas
Authors: Elisa Rinihapsari  , Benaya Yamin Onesiforus  , Samuel Marchel Nugroho
Published: September 2024

Nutrient agar media is a universal medium that can be used in bacterial sensitivity tests. Sensitivity testing is used to test the sensitivity of bacteria to a type of antibiotic. This test is instrumental in determining appropriate therapy for patients who experience recurrent or persistent infectious diseases. Nutrient Agar media is usually made in large quantities for time and energy efficiency. The media is used as needed, and the rest is stored 2-8oC in the refrigerator before being used again. This research aims to determine the effect of repeated heating of Nutrient Agar media on the sensitivity test results for Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bacteria. Tests were carried out on the first, second, third and fourth heating times. The results of statistical tests with Kruskal Wallis showed a sig value of <0.05, meaning there was a difference in sensitivity test results between media heated once, twice, three times, or four times for the two types of bacteria tested.

Pengaruh Pemberian Jus Wortel terhadap Penurunan Disminore pada Remaja di Desa Ngablak
Authors: Diah Ajeng Pratiwi  , Kamidah Kamidah
Published: September 2024

Background: Dysmenorrhea is pain experienced during or just before menstruation and is one of the most common gynecological issues affecting women of all ages. Primary dysmenorrhea occurs 6 to 12 months after the first menstruation and is caused by high levels of prostaglandins released from endometrial secretions, leading to painful uterine contractions. Carrots are a vegetable rich in vitamin E, which can help block the formation of prostaglandins and counteract the effects of increased production of prostaglandin hormones. Objective :To analyze the difference in dysmenorrhea pain levels before and after consuming carrot juice. Method : A one-group pretest-posttest approach was used, conducted in Ngablak Village, Kenteng Nogosari, Boyolali, in April-May, involving 20 respondents. Data processing was done using the Wilcoxon statistical test. Results: The majority of respondents before consuming carrot juice (100%) experienced severe pain. After consuming carrot juice, out of 20 respondents (100%), 6 (30.0%) experienced a reduction to mild pain, and 14 (70.0%) experienced a reduction to moderate pain. The Wilcoxon test results showed a significant effect of carrot juice on dysmenorrhea in adolescents, with a p-value of 0.00 (p < 0.05). Conclusion: There is an effect of consuming carrot juice on the reduction of dysmenorrhea in adolescents in Ngablak Village.
