LEARNING ACTIVITY RASULULLAH (STUDI HERMENEUTIK-FILOSOFIS)
Authors: Hery Musnur , Zuhdiyah Zuhdiyah , Nurlaila Nurlaila
Published: September 2017

Dalam perjalanannya, terdapat stigma diametral penggambaran Rasulullah Muhammad SAW yang mendekorasi historisitas manusia. Pada satu sisi rame-rame orang memuji Rasulullah SAW sebagai sosok dan tokoh yang sangat mempengaruhi perjalanan umat manusia dan peradaban di dunia. Pada sisi lain, terdapat gambaran minor tentang Rasulullah, yang sesungguhnya bila diteliti lebih seksama, gambaran minor tersebut akan meruntuhkan stigma positif sebagaimana yang digambarkan sebelumnya. Sebagai seorang Nabi yang menjadi patron dan cermin posistif bagi manusia khususnya dalam ilmu pengetahuan dan pendidikan, maka gambaran diri rasulullah harus memiliki makna positif bagi manusia lainnya khususnya dalam konteks pengetahuan dan pendidikan.Kegelisahan akademik yang muncul dari personifikasi minor Rasulullah Adalah bagaimana mungkin Rasulullah akan menginstruksikan sebuah komando pembelajaran, padahal ia sendiri tidak mengalami pembelajaran tersebut atau tidak melakukannya (padahal al-Qur’an mencerca perbutan menyuruh sesorang melakukan sesuatu sementara ia sendiri tidak melakukannya). Dalam tataran yang lebih fundamental, epistemologis, gambaran reduktif tentang pengetahuan Rasul, mengisyaratkan bahwa Rasulullah secara epistemologis hanya menempuh atau melalui salah satu varian epistemologis semata, intuisi misalnya, tanpa melalui rasionalisme, empirisme, eksistensialisme, fenomenologi bahkan hermeneutika sekalipun. Sementara di sisi yang lain, dari perspektif pengembangan ilmu pengetahuan, tertutupnya kajian tentang proses pembelajaran Rasulullah. Di sinilah letak signifikansi penelitian terhadap pembelajaran Rasulullah untuk memperoleh jawaban yang memadai bagaimana sebenarnya sosok Rasulullah dalam konteks pendidikan.Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif yang dilakukan dengan penelaahan terhadap kepustakaan yang berkenaan dengan kegiatan belajar mengajar Rasulullah. Dengan kata lain, penelitian ini adalah kepustakaan murni. Penelitian ini menggunakan metoda content analysis. Data yang didapatkan di analisa melalui perbandingan dengan bacaan-bacaan atau pemikiran lain. Pada akhirnya, terutama dalam analisa data, dilakukan pula kritisisme baik dari komparasi tersebut maupun melalui pemberian interpretasi dari peneliti sendiri.

Authors: Fernandes Renata Sieiro
Published: September 2017

Com quantos livros se faz uma pessoa?, pergunta-se Fernando Bonassi em sua coluna no jornal Folha de S. Paulo (25/março/2003). E ele elenca uma série de livros adjetivados, encontrados nas estantes e escritos para diferentes leitores e leituras. "Todo livro é um livro da vida (mesmo os livros de contabilidade, que são livros de dívidas). Livros de poesia controlam a azia. Livros de história fortalecem a memória. Livros de viagem aperfeiçoam a paisagem. Livros de religião, aumentam a devoção. Livros de química servem para misturar. Livros de teste, para confundir. Livros de lógica, para entender. Livros didáticos, para explica. (...) Livros ensinam a ler. Livros para o humor. Livros para quem quiser ver. Livros para saber. Livros beijados, livros mordidos. Livros apalpados, livros espremidos. Livros são romances cultivados".

PRINSIP PROPORSIONALITAS DAN GOVERNANCE TERHADAP ALOKASI DAN TRANSFER RISIKO DALAM SKEMA KERJASAMA PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP (PPP)
Authors: Yuniarti Yuniarti , Junita Fifi
Published: September 2017

The high level of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is also supported by the availability of infrastructure to the remote area where the investment will be implemented. However, with limited funds from both APBN and APBD, infrastructure development can not be fully done by the government. Therefore, the government will cooperate with the investor (private) in the implementation of infrastructure development known as public private partnership. The main problem in implementing PPP is the allocation of risk to PPP projects. The different bargaining positions between the government and the private sector resulted in the fact that most of them impose risks on private parties (private). Implementation of PPP is closely related to the emergence of various risks including and not limited to regulatory risks, force majeure, etc. If there is no risk allocation arrangement proportionally based on governance principles, it weakens the pattern of PPP cooperation in Indonesia. PPP as one form of risk sharing in infrastructure investment should not release the role and government support to private parties / investors. Even in practice, PPP implementation in Indonesia only relies on BOT (Build Operate and Transfer) scheme which is expected to minimize government support in project implementation. This will ultimately lead to project failure.

HPC-Driven Seismic Processing and Time-Lapse 4D Monitoring
Authors: Gerea Constantin , Zamboni Enrico , Duquet Bertrand
Published: September 2017

The field of seismic full-wave inversion (FWI) and high-resolution reservoir simulation are in a transition period where methods based on simplified wave propagation and flow physics phenomena are successively replaced by fully numerical approaches of dense earth model representations running on high-performance computers (HPC) that allow exploration geophysicists and reservoir engineers to unlock, leverage tomorrow's reserves and mitigate subsurface uncertainties in a cost-effective way.

The objective is on the one hand to exploit the complete seismic recordings for the benefit of improved vertical resolution of subsurface elastic anisotropic heterogeneous Earth models; and on the other hand, to understand physics at small scale to improve microscopic recovery and improve reservoir modeling predictability towards optimized field development with proprietary in-house developed technology run on HPC.

The promise of elastic FWI for seismic imaging and interpretation is to employ waveforms (raw observed seismograms recorded with long/broad range and densely sampled offset/azimuths and full frequency bandwidth) to account for refractions, reflections and high-order scattering, and make NO physical assumptions in the simulation of any observed amplitudes. However, FWI is an ill-posed problem with non-unique solutions, i.e., many combinations of earth elastic parameters can fit the data equally well. The non-uniqueness of solution triggers the uncertainty in the earth model parameters which equally affect both seismic imaging and reservoir modeling workflows. As a result, there is a need to create multiple sets of models in an attempt to optimally explain the data (seismograms).

Therefore, the solution of a seismic inverse problem has very high computational complexity that can only be efficiently handled using high-performance computers (HPC). Such computers contain large numbers of nodes interconnected via the high throughput networks; each node combines conventional CPU cores and GPU (graphic processing units) accelerators.

Through a combination of theory, methodology and case studies, we demonstrate the recent progress and value added with cost-effective fit-for-purpose Total's proprietary technology efficiently deployed on heterogeneous HPC to yield new acreages in frontier domains, better characterize/predict subsurface reservoirs, and mitigate the geosciences and drilling uncertainties.
Critical challenges affecting Islamic banking growth in India using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)
Authors: I. Tabash Mosab
Published: September 2017

The banking sector plays a vital role in growth-supporting factor for economic growth in the world’s fastest-growing economies like India. Recently, Islamic banking has become an increasingly popular method for alleviating poverty, financial inclusion and economic development around the world. Its importance is highly needed in developing and emerging countries such as India. The main purpose of the paper is to identify and prioritize the critical impeding factors for Islamic banking growth in India. The study is conducted in two stages: the first stage involves investigating the current literature works regarding the challenges facing Islamic banking industry in India, while the second stage is based on identifying and prioritizing these challenges according to its importance in hindering Islamic banking growth by Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). AHP is a multi-criterion decision making tool for organizing and analyzing decisions, based on qualitative and quantitative measures. The results show that the regulatory environmental challenge is the most significant factor among other factors in impeding the growth of Islamic banking in India followed by lack of Islamic banking experts and scholars. The third main challenge is lack of awareness for Islamic banking instruments followed by lack of standardization and the last is lack of cooperation and coordination between Islamic banking authorities. This study is considered the first one to address empirically the challenges facing Islamic banking industry in the world and particularly in India.

Ginkgo biloba Extract EGb761 Attenuates Hyperhomocysteinemia-induced AD Like Tau Hyperphosphorylation and Cognitive Impairment in Rats
Authors: Zeng Kuan , Li Mengzhu , Hu Jichang , Mahaman Yacoubou Abdoul Razak , Bao Jian , Huang Fang , Xia Yiyuan , Liu Xinghua , Wang Qun , Wang Jian-Zhi , Yang Yang , Liu Rong , Wang Xiaochuan
Published: September 2017

Background:

Ginkgo biloba extract EGb761 has shown the neuroprotective effects on Alzheimer's
disease (AD) through the protection against the Aβ-induced neurotoxicity. However, it is not
completedly clear whether EGb761 attenuates tau hyperphosphorylation, another of the most prominent
mechanisms underlying the pathology of AD.

Methods:

we employed hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) to mimic AD like pathological alterations and
memory deficits in rats as model, and injected EGb761 with or after HHcy injection as prevention and
treatment, injected saline as control. We measured the status of oxidative damage and spatial and learning
memory in rats. Then we detected the level of memory-related proteins, tau phosphorylation and the
level and activity of tau kinase (GSK-3β) and phosphatase (PP2A) by Western blotting and Immunohistochemistry.

Results:

We found that EGb761 could significantly antagonize HHcy-induced oxidative damage, recover
PP2Ac and GSK3β activities deregulated by HHcy. Furthermore, tau was hyperphosphorylated at
Thr231, Ser262, Ser396, and Ser404, most common PP2Ac and GSK3β targeted sites in the hippocampus
and prefrontal cortex of HHcy rats, whereas EGb761 recovered the tau phosphorylation at those
sites. Behavioral tests revealed that EGb761 rescued HHcy-induced spatial reference memory deficit
and upregulated the expression of synapse-associated protein PSD95 and synapsin-1.

Conclusion:

EGb761 might be a promising drug to treat AD through its anti-oxidative activity and decreasing
tau hyperphosphorylation besides the protection against the Aβ-induced neurotoxicity.
Voice Markers of Lexical Access in Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer's Disease
Authors: Meilan Juan J.G. , Martinez-Sanchez Francisco , Carro Juan , Carcavilla Nuria , Ivanova Olga
Published: September 2017

Background:

Recent studies have identified the correlation between dementia and certain
vocal features, such as voice and speech changes. Vocal features may act as early markers of Alzheimer's
disease (AD). Despite being present in non-pathological senescence and Mild Cognitive Impairment,
especially in its amnesic subtype (aMCI), these voice- and speech-related symptoms are the
first signs of AD. The purpose of this study is to verify whether these signs are related to deficits in lexical
access, which appear early in AD.

Method:

Anomic deficits in persons with MCI and AD are assessed through tests on verbal memory,
denomination by confrontation, and verbal fluency. In addition, an acoustic analysis of speech is conducted
in a reading task to identify the acoustic parameters associated with the groups analyzed, and
their relation to the degree of anomic impairment observed in each one of them.

Results and Conclusions:

The results show a direct relationship between the different acoustic parameters
present in AD and the verbal fluency tests results.

Empreendedorismo e novas formas de mobilização da subjetividade no mundo do trabalho: implicações possíveis sobre o ethos profissional do jornalista
Authors: Roxo de Oliveira Michelle , Mello e Silva Leonardo
Published: September 2017

Partindo de uma reflexão sobre o discurso da “nova governamentalidade empresarial” (DARDOT & LAVAL, 2016), o texto discute implicações da noção de empreendedorismo sobre o ethos profissional do jornalista e sobre o desenho da figura de um profissional mais ou menos valorizado segundo essa nova racionalidade, em um cenário onde a saída para o auto-emprego (criação do “negócio próprio”) é desenhada como alternativa no mercado de trabalho. Argumenta que o esforço para conter uma ação orientada explicitamente ao interesse econômico, própria de um cuidado distintivo cultivado pelo campo profissional (a partir de valores éticos, humanistas), é tensionado, quando se postula uma espécie de síntese entre a figura do jornalista e do sujeito empresarial.  Problematiza ainda o processo de “envelhecimento social” experimentado por jornalistas que não estão em conformidade com novas formas de mobilização da subjetividade postas em funcionamento no mundo do trabalho, vinculadas a noções como flexibilidade, inovação, criatividade, polivalência e capacidade de empreender.

Published: September 2017

The change in the trends in demand for tourism and excursion products, and needs of a modern tourist determines the importance of differentiating the tourism offer and developing the popular types of tourism. Crimea has significant tourist resources, which can and should be used to develop non-traditional types of tourism. The development of topographic tourism as a form of scientific knowledge and cultural identification will attract the category of tourists to the Crimea, the motivation of which is based on satisfaction of cognitive needs, the need for cultural involvement and involvement in the cultural environment. The main goal of the article is to study the prospects for the development of topographical tourism in Crimea and demonstrate cultural and cognitive possibilities, using a one-day tourist route. It was developed in accordance with the possibilities of the average tourist and traditional cognitive interests of tourists and excursionists. The objects included in the topographic route are accessible and interesting from the point of view of the cultural heritage of the Crimea. The route laying was preceded by a study related to the identification of the most popular tourist topographic interest objects. Also the article analyzes the research and cultural-cognitive features of topographic tourism in Crimea, explains how the topographic route affects tourist’s scientific knowledge and cultural identification. The main findings of the study are recommendations for the introduction of the developed topographic route and the topographic tourism development in Crimea along with traditional forms of tourism.
Inflation Thresholds-Financial Development Nexus in South-Eastern Asian Emerging Markets
Authors: Tsaurai Kunofiwa
Published: September 2017

This paper investigated the maximum inflation threshold levels beyond which financial development declines in the South-Eastern Asian emerging markets using static panel threshold regression framework proposed by Bick (2010) with data ranging from 1994 to 2014. The negative impact of inflation on financial development is a settled matter in both theoretical and empirical literature. However, this study was prompted by recent literature (Boyd et al., 2001; Abbey, 2012; Kim and Lin, 2010) which argued that the relationship between inflation and financial development is not linear and is characterised by inflation thresholds. Moreover, no previous study that the author is aware of used the approach suggested by Bick (2010) to determine inflation threshold levels and financial development. Among previous inflation-finance studies, the current study is the first one according to the author’s best knowledge to use banking sector, stock market and bond sector development variables as previous studies were narrow focused in their definition of financial development. The study observed that lower levels of inflation is good for financial development whilst higher levels of inflation slows down the rate at which banking sector, stock and bond markets develop. These results agree with the theory underpinning inflation-financial development nexus. South-Eastern Asian emerging economies are therefore urged to implement macroeconomic policies that ensure inflation rates are kept at lower levels that do not stifle financial development.
Effect of Agency Costs on Executive Compensation in South African Commercial Banks
Authors: Olarewaju Odunayo Magret , Migiro Stephen Oseko , Sibanda Mabutho
Published: September 2017

This study examines the roles of agency cost (monitoring and bonding cost) on compensation of managers with a view from the managerial-power approach to agency cost. We modelled managers’ compensation and agency cost of banks to emphasise the potential influence of agency cost on managers’ compensation. A Panel Generalised Least Square model was estimated on four largely-controlled commercial banks in South Africa over the period 2010-2015. The result shows that shareholders’ fund, management share option, monitoring and bonding cost were strongly significant in explaining the managers’ compensation in the banks. Therefore, in the South African banking sector, compensation of managers should be based on their managerial power and not only on the principle of optimal-contracting. It is recommended, among others, that monitoring and bonding costs in the South African banks should be re-emphasised and strictly committed to. This should be so because there are direct effects of these costs on managers’ compensation which might be the reason for the persistent agency problem in the banks.
Determinants of Access to Education and ICT in Nigeria
Authors: Oluwatayo Isaac B. , Ojo Ayodeji O.
Published: September 2017

The world where development is driven by advancement in education and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is fast emerging. This study therefore examined the determinants of access to education and ICT in Nigeria. The study used information from 4,508 households from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) General Household Survey (GHS) Data. Probit regression model and descriptive statistical tools were used to analyze relevant data. Analysis of the data showed that average household size was fairly large consisting of 7 members with majority (85.1percent) of the households headed by men. Average age of the household heads was 52 years while average years of education was 4 years. Also, 82.0percent and 61.2percent of the households in urban and rural Nigeria respectively had access to education. Therefore, inequality in access to education exists based on location. The factors influencing access to education in Nigeria were found to include age, gender, marital status and household size. The results also revealed age, years of education, marital status, gender and household size as determinants of access to ICT. Analysis of different ICT devices used in Nigeria showed that Radio (88.1percent), Mobile Phones (86.4percent) and Television (55.1percent) were the most widely used. Meanwhile, a significant difference exist in the factors influencing access to education and ICT in rural and urban Nigeria. The study therefore recommended increased investment in education and infrastructure. Government and private organizations should encourage gender equality in access to ICT through gender sensitive interventions.
A Comparative Analysis of Effects of Education on Sub-Saharan Africa’s Economic Growth
Authors: Wilfred Akinola Gbenga , Bokana Gerry Koye
Published: September 2017

This study aims to analyze and to compare the effects of various levels of education on the economic growth of some selected countries in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) between 1980 and 2015.It is hypothesized in the study that various levels of education have significant positive impacts on the economic growth of some selected sub-Saharan Africa countries over the stated period. Fixed effect Least Square Dummy Variable (LSDV) and a robust version of System Generalized Methods of Moment (SYSGMM) are adopted as model estimating techniques. Results from the LSDV model indicate increasing positive impacts of various levels of education on the economic growth of the thirty selected SSA countries. This trend of significance is corrected in the dynamic model, but with negative effects on the lower levels of education on growth while higher education output which negatively impacted on growth is reversed. The study systematically compares the effects of education on growth when higher education is included and when it is excluded both at the enrolment and output level in the regression model. We found different results at each instance for the various levels. Therefore, the major conclusion of this study is that higher education human capital at the output level appears to be the most significant of all the levels of education. However, this advantage enjoyed by higher education could have been as a result of cumulative effects from other levels of education over time. We, therefore, conclude that higher education should be supported with strong education policy implementation, as this could have a positive impact on SSA economic growth.
The Effectiveness of Enterprise Risk Management and Internal Audit Function on Quality of Financial Reporting in Universities
Authors: N Wadesango , C. Mhaka
Published: September 2017

This study examined the impact of enterprise risk management (ERM) and internal audit function (IAF) on the financial reporting quality (FRQ) of state universities in Zimbabwe. Utilizing a dataset of 250 respondents from across nine (9) state universities, the researchers examined the effectiveness of ERM and the IAF on the quality of financial reporting in state universities. The researchers employed the contingency theory and studied each university separately to report on items that are specific to each and then also establish a commonality in the definition of parameters to be used in setting up the benchmark against which future performance may be measured. The findings were that there is a strong and significant relationship between ERM and the FRQ and also that there is a positive relationship between the internal audit function and FRQ. Quality internal audit results improved corporate governance systems. The results also underscore the significance and need for central government to establish and monitor a system of good ERM processes that minimize corporate governance breaches and enhance integrity and independence in financial reporting in state universities.

Frequentemente tido como de fácil execução pelo fato de lidar com uma ou com poucas unidades, o estudo de caso é um dos meios de pesquisa utilizados por cientistas sociais da área de Administração de Empresas. Essa convicção é equivocada; na verdade, o estudo de caso é um método complexo, o que talvez explique por que não raro se observe que pesquisadores que dizem elaborar esse tipo de pesquisa na verdade não o fazem. À luz desse fato, o objetivo deste artigo de abordagem quantitativa-qualitativa foi, com base em um modelo de investigação, verificar se foram contemplados, de forma explícita, os aspectos relacionados ao planejamento, à coleta e à análise dos dados em uma amostra de dissertações do Mestrado Executivo em Gestão Empresarial da Escola Brasileira de Administração Pública e de Empresas (Ebape) da Fundação Getúlio Vargas (FGV), defendidas no triênio 2012-14 e que se autoqualificaram como estudos de caso. A conclusão é de que alguns desses aspectos foram plenamente obedecidos, outros foram apenas tangenciados, e outros foram simplesmente esquecidos. Reflexões a respeito são colocadas e futuros estudos são sugeridos.
