Published: January 2024

El proceso migratorio ha sido investigado desde varias perspectivas, pero pocos estudios han puesto atención a los riesgos psicosociales. El presente artículo analizó las trayectorias laborales de hombres y mujeres migrantes en la estación Querétaro, México, con un estudio cualitativo, microregional, exploratorio, de corte transversal con enfoque en la reconstrucción de experiencias de vida y trabajo. El trabajo de campo se realizó en el Centro de Apoyo Marista al Migrante (CAMMI) en el Municipio de Querétaro, México, entre enero y junio de 2019. Los resultados destacan la relevancia de las redes de apoyo no institucionales (sociedad civil organizada y no organizada), así como la percepción de poca visibilidad de una política de atención proveniente del estado y sus instituciones para las y los migrantes en situación de tránsito por la entidad. Entre los hallazgos más relevantes, se encuentra la multiactividad en las trayectorias de trabajo de las y los migrantes, el aprendizaje de oficios durante el trayecto migratorio y las formas de precariedad laboral y el riesgo y vulnerabilidad social y psicosocial. Se concluye que hay un alto grado de vulnerabilidad y riesgos psicosociales entre la población migrante.

The Pimenta pseudocaryophyllus (Gomes) Landrum among the species of the genus Mytaceae is the only Brazilian representative. Craveiro-do-mato, as it is popularly known in the Southern Region of Brazil, is an aromatic tree species, with popular use for medicines, condiments, and flavoring of beverages due to its flavor very similar to cloves. The Brazilian species has been widely used in traditional medicine for the treatment of various ailments, in addition to being linked to other traditional practices, such as the use of wood for internal carpentry works. However, there are not enough studies on its potential through biological activity. This study highlighted the botanical characteristics as well as the importance of expanding research regarding the chemical and biological activities of the species Pimenta pseudocaryophyllus (Gomes) Landrum.

Published: January 2024

Introduction: Due to the demand for the implementation of hydroelectric projects to enrich the Brazilian energy matrix, there is an inevitable need to restore the new Permanent Preservation Areas (APPs) resulting from the formation of the reservoirs of these projects. Objective: The main objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the characteristics of the remaining vegetation formations (middle stage secondary forest) and restored ones (reforested areas) that extend along the margins of the reservoir of the Salto Santiago Hydroelectric Power Plant, located in the municipality of Bonito do Iguaçu River - PR. The purpose of the analysis is to identify variations in the diversity and structure of the studied communities, in addition to defining the stages of succession of the evaluated communities. Methodology: To meet the objective of the study, the analyzes were performed using temporary plots. Three 20x100m plots were installed in the restored areas and 5 plots of 20x100m in the remaining forest. In these plots, all individuals with DBH (diameter at breast height) greater than or equal to 10 cm were measured and identified. Still, smaller plots were allocated to evaluate the regenerating individuals, in which the individuals were identified and counted. Initially, the phytosociological parameters of both communities were estimated and, later, for the analyzes of similarity and indicator species, the plots were divided into subplots of 10x10m, totaling 160 plots. Main Results: In total, 52 species belonging to 25 botanical families were recorded in the remaining areas, compared to 37 species distributed in 17 families in the restored areas. The estimated basal area for the remaining areas was 26.7 m². ha-1, while in the restored areas it was 6.8 m². ha-1. The density of individuals was higher in the remaining areas (904 individuals/ha) in relation to the restored areas (310 individuals/ha). The dominant species were identified as Cupania vernalis in the remaining areas and Mimosa bimocrunata in the restored areas, with the latter being native to the region and frequently used during the restoration process. Conclusion: The results of this study highlighted significant differences between the remaining and restored areas in relation to species composition, density and basal area. The low similarity between communities, as demonstrated by the Jaccard index, does not exclude an overlapping trend as observed in the NMDS analyses. The dominant presence of indicator species suggests promising progress in restoration, while the remaining areas remain in a post-disturbance stage of succession. The research contributes to the understanding of the dynamics of regeneration of plant formations in areas of hydroelectric reservoirs, emphasizing the viability of restoration with species native to the region.
The historic Lake Biwa Canal as a permanent catalyst for the development of Kyoto’s landscape architecture
Authors: Shevtsova Galyna
Published: January 2024

The historic Lake Biwa Canal, an artificial waterway that supplies water from Lake Biwa to Kyoto, was built to revitalise Kyoto after the capital was moved to Tokyo in 1868. Apart from its main function, the canal plays a significant role in organising the cultural landscape of the surrounding areas. This study raised topical issues of sustainable development, preservation, and revitalisation of historic engineering structures. The artificial waterway was considered in terms of its pulling effects on the surrounding environment, both urban and landscape. The purpose of this study was to find the characteristics of the landscape-organising role of the Biwa Canal and its transformation over time, specifically with adaptation to the relevant problems of modern time. The study was conducted mainly using in situ field research methods. As a result, the key role of the canal as a constant catalyst for the development of Kyoto’s landscape architecture was outlined, which has changed substantially over time, but has not weakened and has always been innovative, organically combining modern industrial achievements with local traditions. In the first period of its existence (until 1951), the focus of landscape organising activities in the areas adjacent to the canal was on the creation of private and temple gardens, but from the second period of its existence (1951-early 1990s), the focus of landscape activities around the canal shifted to public recreational and park aspects. During the third period (since the early 1990s), when the canal was recognised as a National Historic Site, trends in the development of industrial and landscape tourism were also observed. The experience of preserving, revitalising, promoting, and adapting the landscape role of the Biwa Canal to the new needs of the present can be used as an example of the direction of similar activities for historic waterways in the world
Development of the transport network considering the specifics of Lviv’s planning structure (compared to Leipzig and Krakow)
Authors: Liubytskyi Roman
Published: January 2024

The relevance of this study is determined by the need to adapt the transport network of Lviv to the requirements of modern urban traffic. The planning structure of Lviv was formed based on radial roads, later developing ring connections, which is typical for most European cities, but eventually acquired its own characteristics. The purpose of this study was to analyse the specific features of the current planning structure of Lviv, which affect the development of urban transport infrastructure and mobility of each mode of transport. The methodology of this study involves analysing the modern street and road network as the formative basis of the planning structure of the city of Lviv and assessing transport mobility based on geospatial data from open sources. Comparison with similar European cities, such as Leipzig and Krakow, helps to highlight the specific features and rational ways of developing Lviv’s transport network. The results of the study point to the main feature of Lviv’s planning structure, which is its compactness and high population density – twice as high as in comparable cities. This makes it impossible to adapt the transport infrastructure for car travel and highlights the need to improve public transport networks and cycling infrastructure as more efficient and environmentally friendly ways of urban transport. However, the study of urban transport mobility found that the means of limiting the use of private cars in Lviv are inferior to those implemented in comparable cities, and the public transport network and bicycle infrastructure are underdeveloped and do not provide a quality alternative to car travel as of 2023. The practical value of the study lies in highlighting the most problematic aspects of Lviv’s transport infrastructure that require urgent decisions to function in the context of the specific planning structure of the city
Transformation of tradition in Kenzo Tange’s projects as a way of shaping contemporary Japanese architecture
Authors: Parkhomchuk Mykhailo
Published: January 2024

This study explored the transformation of tradition in contemporary Japanese architecture, with a focus on Kenzo Tange’s works as a potential solution to the lack of national identity in modern urban spaces, particularly prevalent in post-socialist countries. Such homogenisation, as established by previous research, has negative implications for human psychology. The purpose of this study was to identify K. Tange’s creative approach to the use of tradition in the context of modernity. Ukrainian, Japanese, English, American, and other sources on the history of traditional and modern architecture in Japan, including the theoretical achievements of K. Tange himself and several sources on the architect’s works, were used in the study. A considerable amount of photographic material was also collected for the study. The paper described certain types of traditional religious architecture in Japan. The architecture of Shinto and Buddhism were considered as prototypes. Accordingly, the following objects of K. Tange were analysed: The Peace Memorial Museum in Hiroshima, in comparison with the Ise Shrine Complex; Kurashiki Town Hall in comparison with the main pavilion of the Buddhist temple complex; the Kagawa Prefecture Government Office Building in Takamatsu in comparison with the Buddhist wooden pagoda. As a result, it was found that the transformation of tradition in K. Tange’s works can occur at four levels: the organisation of the master plan, the formation of the interior space of the building, the formation of its overall structure, and at the level of semantics. For each example of transformation, appropriate references were made to certain features of Japanese architecture or traditional Japanese worldview that were discovered during the study. In addition, an algorithm for introducing traditional features into modern architecture was presented, which, given the need to rebuild Ukrainian cities destroyed as of 2023, could help revive them while avoiding the architectural shortcomings of the past
Literature Review on Valuation and Accounting Recognition for Heritage Assets
Authors: Iswari Yuni , Mediawati Elis
Published: January 2024

Historic assets can also be said to be unique assets because of the diverse ways of obtaining them ranging from development, purchase, donation, inheritance, booty, or confiscation and their management and maintenance are protected by the local government (Agustini, 2011). In accordance with applicable laws the validity of a historic asset can be proven by legality to maintain the unlimited existence of historic assets. There are several valuation models for Historic Assets based on accounting standards that apply in the world, namely: Accounting Policy Act, Generally Recognized Accounting Practice (GRAP) 103, Financial Reporting Statements (FRS) 30, and Government Accounting Standards Manual (PSAP) 07 (2010). These differences arise due to the conditions and situations in each country in adopting a guideline that regulates accounting for heritage assets as well as the characteristics of heritage assets that are considered unique and diverse (Ouda, 2014). The accounting treatment for historic assets varies greatly depending on the nature of the asset and also the nature of the entity that holds it. Based on the results of the literature review conducted by the author, regarding how accounting records for heritage assets in Indonesia provide diverse results where there are heritage assets that are recorded in accordance with applicable standards and there are also heritage assets that are not in accordance with applicable accounting standards, namely PSAP 07 2010 regarding Fixed Asset Accounting. This is due to the inadequate quality of human resources who understand the assessment and accounting treatment of heritage assets and unclear policies in the treatment of heritage assets.

The Validity Of The Additional Obligations Of The Notary Profession Through PP Number 43 Of 2015 Of The Notary As The Reporting Party
Authors: Prawati Linda , Aprilianda Nurini , Harini Novitasari Dian Phra
Published: January 2024

The Indonesian government has enacted Law Number 8 of 2010 concerning the Prevention and Eradication of Money Laundering, along with its implementing regulation, Government Regulation Number 43 of 2015 on Reporting Parties in the Prevention and Eradication of Money Laundering Crimes. This regulation designates Notaries as one of the reporting parties in Suspicious Financial Transactions related to Money Laundering (TFM), obligated to submit reports to the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK). Meanwhile, Article 16 paragraph (1) letter f of the Notary Law states that in carrying out their duties, Notaries must maintain the confidentiality of deed contents. Here, there is a contradiction between legal regulations. This study aims to examine and analyze the validity and legal consequences of the additional professional obligations for Notaries as stipulated in the Notary Law, supplemented by Government Regulation Number 43 of 2015, designating Notaries as reporting parties in TFM related to Money Laundering. The research indicates that the confidentiality duty of Notaries is not absolute; in other words, the obligation to maintain confidentiality in the Notary Law can be set aside by other laws, in this case, the Law on the Prevention and Eradication of Money Laundering through Government Regulation Number 43 of 2015, a directly authorized implementing regulation. The additional obligation as a reporting party cannot be considered a violation of the principle of notary confidentiality but rather a form of protection, with Minister of Law and Human Rights Regulation Number 9 of 2017 serving as an implementation of the prudence principle for Notaries in performing their duties. Furthermore, the legal consequences for Notaries, if they breach their duty as keepers of official secrets, may include criminal sanctions based on Article 322 of the Criminal Code and Law Number 43 of 2009 concerning Archives, civil sanctions under Article 1365 of the Civil Code, and administrative sanctions under Article 85 of the Notary Law. Additionally, if a Notary fails to report suspicious financial transactions resulting in criminal activities, the Notary faces the threat of punishment as regulated in Article 5 of the Law on the Prevention and Eradication of Money Laundering, which includes passive involvement in money laundering crimes (Article 55 of the Criminal Code) and active assistance in criminal activities (Article 56 of the Criminal Code).

Protection of financial resources is one of the priority tasks of the state, which determines its independence and subjectivity. This is especially relevant in the case of Ukraine, which is conducting full-scale military operations, therefore the study of the cyber security problem of the financial sphere of Ukraine and the formulation of recommendations for their solution became the purpose of this study. Methods of statistical analysis, systematization and synthesis were used to analyse the dynamics in the field of protection of critical information, whereas the intelligence method, based on open sources, was used to reveal the main trends, methods, and tools of modern cyber fraud. As a result, a list of problems and threats to the financial sector of Ukraine was formed. An assessment of existing trends in the effectiveness of countering such challenges is given, and several recommendations have been developed to prevent the leakage of personal data and the vulnerability of financial structures. Such recommendations included the introduction of clear algorithms for personnel behaviour, separation of subsystems with different levels of access and their restriction of access to external networks, as well as personal digital security rules – use of two-factor authentication, prohibition of transmission of passwords and temporary codes, etc. In the context of the dynamics of the growth of the number of Internet users over the last five years in the world, the international principles of ensuring information security and the legislation of Ukraine, which regulates actions to protect against cyber-attacks, were analysed. The practical significance of the research lies in finding ways to solve problems in the field of information security of the financial sector and forming recommendations that may be useful to the management of financial institutions

Published: January 2024

Penetapan biaya produksi meliputi perhitungan keuntungan dan kerugian secara berkala serta penentuan biaya penyimpanan barang jadi dan barang dalam masa proses produksi yang semuanya tercantum di dalam laporan pembukuan. Ada dua pendekatan untuk menghitung biaya produksi. 1) metode full costing untuk menghitung semua dari elemen produksi, termasuk bahan mentahan, upah karyawan atau tenaga kerja langsung, dan biaya overhead perusahaan; 2) metode variabel costing yang hanya difokuskan pada analisis biaya bahan mentah, upah kerja langsung, serta biaya overhead perusahaan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini ialah menganalisa metode biaya produksi serta mengetahui perhitungan biaya penetapan harga pagar pada Bengkel Las Agung Sedayu. Hasil dari perbandingan rata-rata harga pokok produksi yang dihitung menggunakan dua metode tersebut, terlihat bahwa harga pokok produksi pada metode bengkel las lebih rendah daripada dengan Variabel Costing method. Perbedaan ini disebabkan oleh pendekatan bengkel las yang hanya mencatat biaya pengeluaran uang untuk pembelian kebutuhan produksi, sehingga untuk biaya tambahan seperti biaya penyusutan harga tidak terdokumentasi, menghasilkan kesan bahwa beban usaha tampak lebih kecil.

UMKM (Usaha Mikro, Kecil, dan Menengah) menjadi fokus utama pemerintah untuk mendorong pertumbuhan ekonomi, terutama dalam konteks penanggulangan dampak pandemi COVID-19. Data terbaru menunjukkan bahwa total UMKM di Indonesia kini menyentuh angka 64 juta, yang secara tidak langsung berpengaruh pada Produk Domestik Bruto (PDB) mencapai 61 persen atau sekitar Rp8.573 triliun. Pentingnya peran UMKM menjadi semakin jelas saat pandemi COVID-19 melanda. Meskipun tantangan ekonomi melonjak, pertumbuhan jumlah UMKM justru menjadi penyelamat ekonomi di Indonesia. Di balik lonjakan ini, kegiatan produksi memegang peranan krusial, dan pengelolaan biaya produksi, atau harga pokok produksi, menjadi kunci. Penghitungan harga pokok produksi menjadi landasan untuk mengukur keuntungan, kerugian, dan menetapkan harga jual yang tepat. Pentingnya data numerik dan non-numerik dalam penghitungan harga pokok produksi membuat wawancara dengan para pemangku kepentingan menjadi metode yang relevan. Dengan melibatkan pihak terkait, informasi yang diperoleh tidak hanya bersifat kuantitatif tetapi juga kualitatif, memperkaya pemahaman tentang dinamika UMKM dalam ekosistem ekonomi Indonesia. Melalui pendekatan ini, pemerintah dapat terus mengambil langkah-langkah yang mendukung pertumbuhan dan keberlanjutan UMKM, menjaga kontribusi positif terhadap PDB.

Upah lembur adalah gaji yang dibayarkan pada saat pekerja bekerja melebihi waktu kerja. Penerapan upah lembur bagi karyawan pada lembaga pembiayaan leasing masih menjadi perhatian, di antaranya ketidaksesuaian antara nominal dari hasil perhitungan lembur. Hal ini menimbulkan pertentangan antara buruh dan perusahaan dikarenakan perbedaan nominal upah lembur dan jam kerja yang diperoleh karyawan. Kemudian kesalahan seperti salah hitung nominal upah lembur yang diberikan kepada karyawan dan ketidakterbukaan perusahaan mengenai perhitungan upah lembur karyawan. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui perhitungan upah lembur berdasarkan peraturan pemerintah No. 35 tahun 2021 dan menganalisis perhitungan lembur menurut hukum ekonomi syariah. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian lapangan bersifat deskriptif analitis, menggunakan sumber data primer dan sekunder. Populasi penelitian yaitu sebanyak 20 orang karyawan. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ditemukan bahwa implementasi perhitungan upah lembur karyawan yang dibayarkan tidak sesuai dengan jam kerja lembur karyawan. Karyawan hanya dibayarkan upahnya apabila karyawan bekerja sudah melebihi 3 jam dahulu. Apabila waktu kerja kurang dari 3 jam, maka upah lembur karyawan tidak dibayarkan sesuai dengan peraturan pemerintah No. 35 tahun 2021.
