Sustainable Development of Platform Enterprises: A Synthesis Framework
Authors: Zhou Huanhuai , Xie Hongming , Chen Xiaoping
Published: May 2024

Enterprises are the most important core organizations of the country and modern society, and their growth has always been a focal point in the theoretical field. This paper aims to focus on the sustainable development of platform enterprises by exploring the mechanism of platform growth. Thus, this paper reviews the literature and analyzes the challenges faced by platform enterprises during the four stages of birth, expansion, leadership, and self-renewal, as well as the strategies they have adopted. The main aims of this paper are to help understand the growth process of platform enterprises and identify three key points that need to be addressed for sustainable growth, including the disadvantages of resource externalities, the importance of the restructuration of business models, and the urgency of fulfilling social responsibility. To address the exogenous nature of resources, platform enterprises should pay attention to the initiative of complementors, the distribution of benefits, and ecological orchestration. The impact of technology, especially artificial intelligence, on business models and the application of technology to restructure business models should be given attention. It is also necessary to pay attention to how platform enterprises undertake their social responsibilities. A synthesis framework with seven propositions for future research has been proposed.

Authors: Pinto-Llorente Ana María , Izquierdo-Álvarez Vanessa
Published: May 2024

Formative assessment (FA) provides lecturers and learners with information about the quality and development of different tasks. Formative feedback becomes an essential element that increases the quality of these tasks, guides learners in the process, and motivates them to be actively involved, acquiring the learning objectives and skills. A digital learning ecosystems (DLE) offers the possibility of a quality, effective, and sustainable education, enabling people to carry on with their training from anywhere, at any time, and through personal pathways. In this framework, we present a descriptive study with a qualitative approach to explore the views of 91 participants regarding the process of FA in second language acquisition (SLA) in a DLE. According to the results, the DLE provides the necessary tools to favour FA, and to obtain valuable data on the learners’ academic achievements in SLA. The learners take an active role in learning English and competence development such as reading, writing, and listening, and other skills such as digital competence, communication, problem solving, empathy, or creativity. The data obtained help lecturers to identify learners’ difficulties in SLA and address them with different didactic strategies. It can be concluded that FA plays a relevant role in SLA in a DLE.
Organizational Resilience and the Attention-Based View of the Firm—Empirical Evidence from German SMEs
Authors: Weber Max M. , Kokott Peter
Published: May 2024

The need for organizations to increase resilience is still growing, not least because of economic crises, such as the 2007–2009 global financial crisis, the COVID-19 pandemic, and supply shortages in raw material procurement combined with rising commodity costs and energy prices. We use an attention-based view approach as a theoretical lens to investigate the shift in management’s attention due to a crisis, with a particular focus on working capital management (WCM) as a decisive finance tool. In addition, we examine how management’s attention shifts to organizational resilience (OR). We also analyze how managers’ cognitive flexibility (CF), which reflects their ability to anticipate and quickly adapt, moderates the change in attention. By surveying 307 top and middle managers in German small- and medium-sized enterprises, we measure the crisis effect on the shift in managerial attention to WCM and OR. In addition, we measure managers’ CF and examine the contribution of these individual characteristics in the context of WCM and OR. Our mediation model reveals a positive, indirect-only effect of the crisis on the shift in management attention to OR mediated by the shift in management attention to WCM. In addition, our results show that managers’ CF negatively moderates the effect between managerial focus shifts to WCM and to OR. Our study’s results deepen the understanding of the importance of managers’ CF in times of crisis and the impact of CF on sales development, suggesting that managers’ CF may influence the link between the focal characteristics of WCM and OR.
The Proof Is in the Pudding: How Does Environmental, Social, and Governance Assurance Shape Non-Professional Investors’ Investment Preferences? Evidence from China
Authors: Gao Yingxue , Chen Yan
Published: May 2024

In this research, we conducted 1 × 3 and 2 × 2 between-subject experiments to delve into the impacts of ESG assurance, the assurance presentation mode, and the depth of assured ESG indicators on the investment inclination of non-professional investors. Our empirical findings illuminated that non-professional investors exhibited a stronger inclination to invest in companies endorsed with ESG assurance compared to those lacking such endorsement. Furthermore, we observed that this inclination was heightened by presenting the ESG assurance report separately from the ESG report and by enriching the assured ESG indicators. Mediation analysis underscored that the influence of ESG assurance on the investment willingness of non-professional investors operated through its effect on their perception of companies’ ESG performances. This study stands as a valuable addition to the literature on non-financial information disclosure, shedding light on the pivotal role of ESG assurance.
Unveiling the Energy Transition Process of Xinjiang: A Hybrid Approach Integrating Energy Allocation Analysis and a System Dynamics Model
Authors: Yang Xingyuan , Yang Honghua , Arras Maximilian , Chong Chin Hao , Ma Linwei , Li Zheng
Published: May 2024

The Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (Xinjiang), being a rapidly developing region and a comprehensive energy base, plays an important role in China’s low-carbon energy transition. This paper attempts to develop a hybrid approach integrating energy allocation analysis, Logarithmic Mean Divisia Index (LMDI) decomposition, and a system dynamics (SD) model to identify the driving factors of the energy system’s changes during 2005–2020, and to analyze future scenarios of the energy system from 2020 to 2060. The results indicate that in 2005–2020, coal and electricity consumption increased sharply, due to the expansion of the chemical and non-ferrous metal industries. Meanwhile, the natural gas flow also expanded greatly because of the construction of the Central Asia pipeline and the increase in local production. In the baseline scenario, energy-related carbon emissions (ERCE) will peak in 2046 at 628 Mt and decrease to 552 Mt in 2060. With a controlled GDP growth rate and an adjusted industrial structure, ERCE will peak in 2041 at 565 Mt and decrease to 438 Mt in 2060. With a controlled energy intensity and an adjusted energy structure, ERCE will peak in 2039 at 526 Mt and decrease to 364 Mt in 2060. If all policy measures are adopted, ERCE will peak in 2035 at 491 Mt and decrease to 298 Mt in 2060.

Authors: Di Nicola Matteo Riccardo , Crevani Marta , Avella Ignazio , Cerullo Anna , Dorne Jean-Lou C. M. , Paolino Giovanni , Zattera Caterina
Published: May 2024

The genus Vipera encompasses most species of medically significant venomous snakes of Europe, with Italy harbouring four of them. Envenomation by European vipers can result in severe consequences, but underreporting and the absence of standardised clinical protocols hinder effective snakebite management. This study provides an updated, detailed set of guidelines for the management and treatment of Vipera snakebite tailored for Italian clinicians. It includes taxonomic keys for snake identification, insights into viper venom composition, and recommendations for clinical management. Emphasis is placed on quick and reliable identification of medically relevant snake species, along with appropriate first aid measures. Criteria for antivenom administration are outlined, as well as indications on managing potential side effects. While the protocol is specific to Italy, its methodology can potentially be adapted for other European countries, depending on local resources. The promotion of comprehensive data collection and collaboration among Poison Control Centres is advocated to optimise envenomation management protocols and improve the reporting of epidemiological data concerning snakebite at the country level.

The mean score of pre-test in the control group was 16.76 and the post-test was 13.24 (moderate level of emesis gravidarum). This study showed that there is an influence of PC6 acupressure on emesis gravidarum in fisrt trimester pregnant women (p value=0.0010.05). It is recommended for pregnant women to continue PC6 acupressure so that the symptoms of emesis gravidarum will decrease or even disappear.
Pero ¿hubo alguna vez en Toledo una ‘escuela de traductores’?
Authors: Santoyo Julio César
Published: May 2024

No one can assert today that in the 12th and 13th centuries there was a school of translators in Toledo. Such a school is a myth, a fable, a modern legend without the slightest documentary basis. Objective analysis of the translation activity in that town during those two centuries brings forth a historical and cultural picture which turns out to be quite different from the one that this legend still depicts today.
Benjamin à la tâche
Authors: Launay Marc de
Published: May 2024

Benjamin's text has been the victim of its own celebrity, which has tended to obscure both its context and political interest. In 1916 Benjamin began a reflection on language, and his remarks about translation should be read as part of this ongoing project. It is a question, then, of extending a metaphysics of language, certain aspects of which are interwoven with messianic elements borrowed from caballistic sources. Any attempt to use the text as a justification of methodological prescriptions applicable to the practice of translation should therefore be ruled out. In his published translations of Baudelaire, Benjamin himself fails to observe any of the precepts he sets out as norms in this foreword.

Technique ou non technique, telle est la question. Représentations de la traduction médicale et de ses difficultés.
Authors: Musinova Tatiana
Published: May 2024

La traduction des textes médicaux dans le contexte universitaire suscite d’ordinaire un enthousiasme particulier parmi les étudiants des parcours spécialisés en traduction pragmatique. Par cette contribution, nous souhaitons présenter les résultats de l’enquête empirique que nous avons menée auprès des apprentis traducteurs en première année du master de l’Université de Haute-Alsace, à Mulhouse, intitulé «Traductions scientifiques et techniques», qui fait partie du réseau European Master’s in Translation (EMT) depuis 2014. Dans le cadre de cette étude, nous nous sommes tout d’abord fixé comme objectif d’examiner trois représentations de la traduction médicale et, notamment, de sa nature technique et/ou scientifique : celle que véhicule la littérature traductologique, celle que transmettent les offres du marché professionnel de la traduction et, enfin, celle que se construisent les apprentis traducteurs. Ensuite, nous avons analysé la manière dont le public étudiant est susceptible de concevoir les difficultés liées à ce domaine de traduction pragmatique. Les résultats obtenus à l’issue de l’étude des représentations en lien avec la traduction médicale nous permettront de mener une réflexion de réajustement didactique appliquée à l’enseignement de traduction médicale que nous assurons dans le cadre de la formation proposée.

An Evaluation of Long Non-coding RNAs in Cancer
Authors: Valioğlu Ferzane
Published: May 2024

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) gradually play significant roles in many fundamental biological functions. These genetic elements are considered major components of transcripts and critical components of cancer cells. Most genetic alterations in cancer cells occur in comparatively long, non-protein-encoding areas typically translated into lncRNAs. LncRNAs have essential functions in the pathophysiology of human diseases, particularly in the genesis, advancement, and metastasis of tumors, acting as either tumor suppressor genes or oncogenes. As a correlation, understanding the function and dynamic activity of lncRNAs is thought of as de novo and a promising biomarker for cancer therapeutics. The existence of differentially expressed lncRNAs with functional diversity in diverse anaplastic changes makes them valid elements in monitoring cancer cells. The application of sophisticated genetic tools such as next-gene sequencing on cancer transcriptomes has discovered multiple lncRNA functions in the context of anaplastic changes. Various lncRNAs expressed in different phenotypic situations have been found using the following and third-generation sequencing methods; however, many still need to be appropriately identified. This review summarizes and discusses previous studies on the role of lncRNAs in cancer cells, and underscores the therapeutic strategies associated with cancer-related lncRNAs.

Professional burnout and its relation to self-efficacy and perceived stress. The case of Lithuanian teachers
Authors: Žydžiunaite Vilma , Rutkiene Aušra
Published: May 2024

In modern society, problems related to a teacher’s personality, mental and physical health, and emotions and competencies, are becoming more and more relevant. In Lithuania, compared with other European countries, teachers experience specific difficulties at work: they have to work in the conditions of constant reforms and changes, and face growing competition due to the decrease in students and schools. The majority of the studies on burnout, self-efficacy and perceived stress attempted to find the relationship between personal or organizational variables and burnout. Hence, the relationship between teachers’ professional burnout, self-efficacy and perceived stress in the school environment is an area that needs to be actively researched in Lithuania. The research aim of this study was to reveal and characterize teacher burnout, self-efficacy and perceived stress in the Lithuanian school context. The quantitative research design with questioning survey was chosen for the study. Sample size consisted of 427 Lithuanian teachers. Research results revealed the highest scores for exhaustion and the lowest for cynicism; at a time when the teacher experiences professional burnout, cynicism is observed as the weakest characteristic; no significant differences were found according to educational level or work experience; significant differences were identified according to age, for exhaustion and overall burnout level among teachers; most of the teachers in Lithuanian sample perceive a moderate stress level in the school environment; overall burnout has a significant correlation with self-efficacy and stress among Lithuanian teachers.

The translator and the scapegoat: On mimetic desire and intercultural mediation
Authors: Buts Jan , Özçelik Saliha
Published: May 2024

In the summer of 1993, several poets and musicians, many of Alevi descent, were staying at the Madımak hotel in Sivas (Turkey) for a festival. One of the hotel guests was Aziz Nesin, a Turkish author who had controversially announced a translation of Salman Rushdie’s The Satanic Verses, a book widely condemned for its alleged blasphemy. On July 2, a large crowd marched on the hotel after Friday prayers and set it on fire. Thirty-seven people were killed, and many others wounded. This article discusses the case of Nesin and his connection to what is known as the Sivas massacre. Our study of this event seeks to examine the multilayered relationship between acts of intercultural mediation and outbursts of collective violence. We argue that this relationship can be clarified by drawing on the work of René Girard, whose writings on scapegoating and sacrificial violence survey the multifaceted interaction between human aggression and imitation. We introduce Girard’s work and consider the assumptions behind it in the light of previous work on translation, narrative and conflict. Against this theoretical background, our discussion of the Sivas massacre in relation to the Satanic Verses seeks to contribute to a better understanding of the role of agents of translation as potential catalysts as well as victims of collective violence.A synopsis of this article can be found here.
Legal Protection for Women Victims of Verbal Sexual Harassment in Public Environments (Catcalling)
Authors: Aderiatati
Published: May 2024

Verbal sexual harassment or commonly called catcalling is verbal sexual harassment behavior that occurs in public by uttering indecent, sensitive remarks or words at the victim, causing feelings of fear, discomfort and threat. Usually the form of catcalling is in the form of whistling, harsh words containing pornographic elements, innuendo, shouting, and comments aimed at women's physical characteristics.  Generally, catcalling often occurs in public places.  This harassment is often considered normal by society because people think it is just an ordinary joke.  The normative research method used in this research is research based on legal materials by studying written regulations, theories, concepts and secondary data.  This research aims to find out what form of legal protection is provided by the Indonesian State against catcalling harassment, to find out the causes and impacts of catcalling on women.  Women are subjected to harassment on the streets, but there are no specific regulations regarding this case.  Therefore, there needs to be an emphasis on eradicating this harassment to the wider community through regulations related to decency, namely Articles 281 and 289 of the Criminal Code, Law 12/2022 concerning TPKS, and Law 44/2008 concerning Pornography.
CHALLENGES IN UNDERSTANDING HOW TO IDENTIFY THE PUBLIC DOMAIN AND THE PUBLIC CONTRACTS
Authors: Dinu Catalina Georgeta
Published: May 2024

The paper analyses the juridical issues that are met in practice regarding the goods that must be included in the public domain, due to their special features. For identifying those goods, it is necessary to establish some criteria which have to be applied by the public administrative authorities that are empowered by the law to decide about the sphere of the public domain. This is also related to the comparison between public and private domain in Administrative Law and to the presentation of the enforce European and national regulations. On the other hand, regarding the nature of public contracts, we try to emphases also certain deficiencies that are presented in the juridical practice. The delimitation between civil and public contracts is important in order to know how is the best way to protect the public interest and to spend public money. The differences generated from the specific of national law of EU member states and the correct transposition of European regulations are special aspects that must be analyzed for completing the shaping of these juridical institutions, by presenting some relevant practical cases on European and national level. The Romanian Administrative Code exemplifies the types of public goods as included in the public domain of national and local importance. But what about the natural resources is there a precise regulation on the Constitutional level that includes them in the public domain? What types of public contracts can be concluded and how we must delimitate them from the civil contracts? The paper tries to highlight these aspects and also determine some solutions in doing so.

The systematic manipulation of information and disinformation has been deployed by the Russian government as an operational tool in its attack on Ukraine. The spread of disinformation by the Russian government and its allied actors, as well as the actions undertaken in response by the Ukrainian government, allied governments, and international organizations, provide an important perspective and lessons on how crisis communication. The general objective of the research is to conduct a comparative analysis of online communication between the United States Presidential Administration and the European Commission. For this study, 10 data sets were collected and analyzed for the White House and the European Commission, respectively. All data are collected over time periods originating on February 24, 2022, the date of the illegal invasion of Ukraine. Many of these data sets focus on the immediate aftermath of the conflict's onset, up to March 1, 2022, to emphasize the importance of a rapid response to a situation in a highly dynamic context. In this regard, the research is focused on eight key indicators, which will be presented in detail in the case study.
RIGHT TO GOOD ADMINISTRATION IN THE EU
Authors: Janderova Jana
Published: May 2024

This paper aims to explore the meaning and scope of the right to good administration, which is enshrined in Article 41 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (CFREU). The right to good administration is one of the guarantees that the CFREU provides to every person who is subject to the actions of the EU institutions, bodies, offices and agencies. According to Article 41, this right entails, among other things, the right to be heard, the right to access one�s file, the right to receive reasons for decisions, and the right to an impartial and fair treatment within a reasonable time. The paper analyses the content and implications of this right, and the extent to which it applies to Member states, by examining the relevant case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU). The paper will also compare and contrast the right to good administration as a fundamental right with the broader principle of good governance, which encompasses various standards and values that aim to ensure the legitimacy, accountability, transparency, efficiency and effectiveness of public administration. By doing so, the paper attempts to demonstrate how the right to good administration and the principle of good governance have evolved and influenced each other in the context of EU law and administration. The paper will also highlight the challenges and opportunities that these principles pose for the protection and promotion of the rule of law and democracy in the EU.
THE IMPACT OF AI ON HUMAN TRANSLATION: WILL TRANSLATORS AND LOCALIZATION EXPERTS DISAPPEAR IN THE JOB MARKET AND BE REPLACED BY AI-POWERED TRANSLATION TOOLS
Authors: Valente Federico
Published: May 2024

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the use of AI in translation, particularly in the context of machine-translated texts and the differences between HT and MT. The focus of this investigation is to discover whether this software can compete with the skills of professional translators and eventually replace them. The trigger comes mainly from articles on machine translation vs human translation that I read to have a broader view of this topic. Artificial intelligence seems to have revolutionized machine translation technology in recent times. On the one hand, one of the benefits is that AI-powered translation tools can quickly translate large volumes of content, whereas on the other hand, AI translation still has plenty of pitfalls: some source texts can be misinterpreted and this could lead to inaccuracies and errors, as well as to cultural insensitivity or bias. My research aims to discover whether in the future translators and localization experts will disappear in the job market or whether new job roles will emerge instead as a result of AI. The literature review describes in detail theoretical issues with regard to ethical considerations for AI-powered translation. It also makes reference to a few key findings from former research. The data gathering process consists mainly of qualitative semi-structured interviews with Italian four professional translators, interview transcripts and content analysis which I used to examine and interpret data and findings.

Published: May 2024

We report on the terahertz (THz) emission polarization characteristics of spintronic nickel/platinum (Ni/Pt) bilayer films. The films were deposited on MgO substrates via electron beam deposition with varying Ni thicknesses of 5, 7, and 9 nm and a constant Pt thickness of 6 nm. Results from B-field polarity-dependent THz measurements exhibited different THz emission characteristics for the p- and s-polarized components. We attribute the strong, wide-bandwidth B-field dependent p-polarized component to the inverse spin Hall effect and the weak, low-bandwidth B-field independent s-polarized component to the ultrafast demagnetization process. The peak-to-peak THz emission amplitudes were demonstrated to be dependent on the sample rotational angle about the optical axis which suggests sample inhomogeneity from the deposited Ni/Pt spintronic films. These results are crucial for the material design and development of more intense spintronic THz sources.

We report positron annihilation results on in-grown and proton-irradiation-induced vacancy defects in AlN single crystals grown by physical vapor transport. The samples were irradiated with 100 keV H+ ions to varying fluences in the range of 5 × 1014 − 2 × 1018 ions cm–2. Doppler broadening of annihilation radiation was recorded in as-grown and irradiated samples with a slow positron beam with varying implantation energy. Doppler results combined with first principles theoretical calculations show that the 100 keV H+ irradiation introduces isolated VAl on the ion track and VN-rich vacancy clusters at the end of the ion range. The results suggest that the excess amount of detected VN originates from a high concentration of in-grown VN. So far, these defects have been considered to be unidentified negative ion-like defects in AlN.

APbX3-type [A = CH3NH3
+ (MA+), NH2CH=NH2
+ (FA+), X = Cl–, Br–, I–] organic–inorganic perovskite nanocrystals (PeNCs) have superior optical properties, such as emission with a narrow full width at half maximum and emission color tunability over the entire visible range. However, blue-emitting PeNCs [APb(Br/Cl)3] exhibit low photoluminescence quantum yields owing to Cl defects, hindering their practical applications. The Cl defects induce nonradiative recombination caused by the trap levels formed deep in the band gap. Herein, we report the preparation of blue-emitting PeNCs that exhibit excellent optical properties by using NaBH4 to decrease the number of Cl defects.
Kebijakan Deradikalisasi Terorisme oleh BNPT : Perspektif Spektrum Politik
Authors: Zuhri Saefudin
Published: May 2024

Terorisme merupakan ancaman nyata saat ini bagi Indonesia dan dunia. Kelompok-kelompok teror yang saat ini muncul dengan mengatasnamakan Islam seperti al-Qaeda dan Islamic State. Khilafah Islamiyah adalah cita-cita perjuangan kelompok tersebut yang menyatukan kepemimpinan umat Islam secara global. Negara-negara yang menganut nation state memposisikan mereka sebagai kelompok radikal
termasuk di Indonesia. Pemerintah Indonesia melalui Badan Nasional Penanggulangan Terorisme (BNPT) memberantas kelompok radikal-terorisme dengan kebijakan deradikalisasi. Dalam konteks inilah, maksud dari tulisan ini untuk mendiskusikan deradikalisasi dalam perspektif political Spectrum. Tulisan ini secara spesifik mengambil studi pada konsep dan pelaksanaan program deradikalisasi yang dilaksanakan oleh Badan nasional Penanggulangan Terorisme (BNPT) selama ini. Betulkah pelaksanaan program
deradikalisasi akan mengubah spektrum politik seseorang dari radikal ke tidak radikal? dan kemana posisi spektrum politik seseorang ketika tidak lagi radikal? Tulisan ini menunjukkan bahwa pelaksanaan program deradikalisasi oleh BNPT selama ini kurang signifikan. Hal ini karena outcome program tersebut
tidak mengubah spektrum politik sasaran.

Published: May 2024

AbstrakTujuan tulisan ini adalah menganalisis hasil penerapan tindakan afirmatif selama proses rekrutmen beserta seleksi Kepolisian di Papua, sehingga realisasi kompetensi Polri yang sesuai dengan standar akan menghasilkan kinerja profesional yang baik untuk organisasi. Metode penelitian menggunakan metode post-positivisme. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pelaksanaan affirmative action selama rekrutmen beserta seleksi calon Non-commissioning Officer di Polda Papua masih belum optimal, di mana perekrutan dan seleksi petugas Polri di Polda Papua, Orang Asli Papua (OAP) atau Ras Melanesia lebih cenderung mengambil alih Penduduk Asli Non-Papua. Fungsi tindakan afirmatif dari sistem rekrutmen dan seleksi di Kepolisian Daerah Papua adalah tempat perubahanyang diharapkan untuk menyelesaikan pembangunan di Papua. Kapolri juga meminta agar Afirmatif yang diterapkan dapat meningkatkan motivasi Penduduk Asli Papua untuk mendaftar sebagai calon Pejabat Non-Nomisi dan tindakan afirmatif yang diambil melalui perekrutan dan seleksi akanmeminimalkan hubungan kelompok yang akan didiskriminasi oleh organisasi yang menggunakan non-bantuan atau terkait dengan kelompok atau ras tertentuKata kunci: Petugas non-Komisi, Tindakan Afirmatif, Sumber Daya Manusia, PolisiAbstractsThe purpose of this research is to analyze the results of the application of affirmative action in the recruitment and selection of the Police in Papua, so that the realization of Polri competencies that are in accordance withthe standards will produce good professional performance for the organization. The research method uses the post-positivism method. The results showed that the implementation of affirmative action in the recruitment and selection of prospective Non-commissioned Officer in the Papua Regional Police was still not optimal,where the recruitment and selection of Polri officers in the Papua Regional Police, the Papuan Native (OAP) or the Melanesian Race were more likely to take over the Non Papuan Native. The affirmative action function of the recruitment and selection system within the Papua Regional Police is a place of change thatis expected to complete development in Papua. The Chief of Police also requested that the affirmative applied be able to increase Papuan Native motivation to register as a candidate for Non-commissioned Officer andaffirmative action taken through recruitment and selection will minimize the group relations that would be discriminated against by organizations using non-assistance or related to certain groups or racesKeywords : Non-commissioned Officer, Affirmative Action, Human Resources, Police
Ethical violation by the Chairman of the Constitutional Court against Indonesian law and democracy
Authors: Resopijani A. , Neonbeni Yohanes Baptista
Published: May 2024

Purpose: This study aims to analyze the decision of the Honorary Council of the Constitutional Court Number 02/MKMK/L/11/2023 regarding violations of the code of ethics of the chairman of the Constitutional Court, where the Constitutional Court's decision on the age limit of presidential and vice presidential candidates has caused polemics and pros and cons for society and Indonesian democracy.
Method: The research method used is normative legal research that focuses on coherence between principles, concepts, and positive legal rules.
Results: The results of this study indicate that the Decision of the Honorary Council of the Constitutional Court Number 02 / MKMK / 11/2023 states that Anwar Usman was proven to have committed serious violations of the code of ethics and behavior of constitutional judges in a state of law; the position of the ruler and the people in the eyes of the law are the same (equal) and not people who have power will feel immune to the law. In carrying out their duties as Constitutional Court Judges, they must uphold the code of ethics and not abuse trust, position, or authority for personal or group interests. Therefore, the decision of the Honorary Council of the Constitutional Court Number 02/MKMK/L/1/2023 imposed on the Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court is expected to restore public trust in the institution of the Constitutional Court.
Limitations: The limitation of this research is the decision of MKMK Number 02/MKMK/L/11/2023 and the code of ethics of the office.
Contributions: This research can contribute to Constitutional Court Judges in giving judicial decisions to pay attention to the code of ethics of office, for legal academics as research material in adding insight into positive law, and for the community to restore public trust in the Constitutional Court.
