EXPERIENCIAS ESCOLARES-COMUNITARIAS Y ETNICIDAD EN UNA COMUNIDAD MOCOVI DE ARGENTINA
Authors: Martínez María Eugenia
Published: August 2018

El presente artículo recupera una de las experiencias de campo con un grupo socio étnico, que forma parte de la investigación doctoral sobre políticas y prácticas educativas de atención a la diversidad/inclusión educativa concretado entre el 2007-2013 en Argentina. Puntualmente, nos interesa abordar las reconfiguraciones de la etnicidad a partir de experiencias escolares-comunitarias en una comunidad Mocoví de la provincia de Santa Fe. Entendiendo a la etnicidad como la dimensión ideológica en el entramado de los procesos sócioétnicos identitarios (VÁZQUEZ, 2000). Durante el trabajo de campo pudimos documentar, a través de entrevistas en profundidad, observaciones participantes y análisis de diseños curriculares los conocimientos, valores y tradiciones que forman parte de la etnicidad y orientan la lucha etnopolítica de esta comunidad, como son: la organización comunitaria colectiva, el respeto por la naturaleza, la reconstrucción de la lengua, entre otros. A su vez, pudimos advertir como la etnicidad se iba articulando en la trama escolar-comunitaria.
O PRINCÍPIO DA INTERCULTURALIDADE NA EDUCAÇÃO ESCOLAR INDÍGENA:DIÁLOGOS COM PROFESSORAS DA EDUCAÇÃO INFANTIL TUPINAMBÁ DE OLIVENÇA, ILHÉUS/BAHIA
Authors: De Almeida Santos Tupinambá Marcinéia Vieira
Published: August 2018

Este artigo apresenta resultados da pesquisa Práxis Pedagógicas e saberes culturais: diálogos com as professoras Tupinambá de Olivença, Ilhéus-Bahia.  O estudo realizou uma discussão acerca dos princípios que regem a nova escola indígena a partir da Constituição Federal de 1988 e entre tais princípios, a interculturalidade/intercientificidade. Pretendemos, portanto, refletir acerca da interculturalidade numa concepção crítica, a partir do que apresentam os Referenciais Curriculares Nacionais para a Educação Escolar Indígena, no sentido de perceber em que medida essa perspectiva dialoga com as práticas pedagógicas das professoras Tupinambá que participaram dessa pesquisa. Trata-se, nesse sentido, de uma Pesquisa-ação, como defendida por Barbier (2007). Os resultados apresentam desafios para a efetivação de tal implementação na prática pedagógica das professoras Tupinambá, visto que esta não corresponde apenas à ações didáticas, mas ao rompimento de paradigma de um país monocultural e defensor de conhecimentos antidiferencialistas, por razões históricas diversas.
POLÍTICA, RELIGIÓN Y RACIALIDAD EN SUDÁFRICA CONTEMPORÁNEA
Authors: Arduino Eugenia
Published: August 2018

El tema de la presente investigación se centra en las características del proceso de interrelación entre sectores políticos y las principales vertientes cristianas protestantes de la República de Sudáfrica, desde mediados del siglo XX hasta el presente. Los autores que tangencialmente lo habían tratado, eludían ahondar en cuestiones socio – culturales, en el impacto ocasionado, y en el papel desempeñado por los actores más vulnerables. Las justificaciones explicativas hasta los años ´80 casi lo naturalizaban como una forma política más, a la vez que sólo unos pocos escritos superaban la censura sudafricana y exponían una parte de la dramática trama local. Desde entonces, la desigualdad institucionalizada durante décadas, basada en criterios raciales, comenzó a ser estudiada desde diferentes ámbitos disciplinares, por lo cual, con el fin de obtener como resultado un conocimiento interpretativo /  analítico / explicativo, fue investigada la presencia de cuatro vertientes cristianas protestantes en Sudáfrica, particularizando en las instancias de reelaboración producidas a partir de la diversidad etnorreligiosa local, para comprender el modo a través del cual aquellas se interrelacionaron con los representantes políticos desde la segunda mitad del siglo XX y hasta el presente. El principal objetivo buscó comprender los mecanismos a partir de los cuales las ideas y prácticas, tanto políticas como de las vertientes religiosas estudiadas en Sudáfrica, utilizaron argumentos teológicos como forma de legitimación sobre sistemas ideológicos y políticos impuestos a la sociedad, tanto en el caso represivo del apartheid, como en la resistencia antiapartheid. Tal sistema fue instaurado en 1948 y devino en el control total de la población blanca, creando fronteras internas, racializando y despolitizando a la mayoría no blanca. Las vertientes protestantes actuaron en general, legitimándolo, evitando confrontaciones por medio de una tácita neutralidad, o bien otorgando argumentos para la resistencia antiapartheid.
ESTUDO SOBRE RELAÇÃO AFROINDÍGENA, ETNICIDADE E CONTRA(MESTIÇAGEM)
Authors: Ferreira Maria de Fátima De Andrade
Published: August 2018

No presente artigo, buscamos dar uma contribuição a mais sobre a discussão dos termos etnicidade, (contra) mestiçagem e relação afroindígena, à luz de teorias da antropologia recente (GOLDMAN, 2015; LUCIANI, 2016, entre outros) e, ao que parece, “uma encruzilhada” que se caracteriza como um espaço onde se encontram diferentes caminhos que seguem sem se fundir (ANJOS, 2006), uma mestiçagem pensada sob o ponto de vista etnográfico, uma (contra)mestiçagem que “se opõem a noção de mestiçagem, mistura e sincretismo de forma radical e, também, tomam posse de tais noções, incluindo-as no modo de pensar os conceitos como forças estratégicas em movimento e um lugar onde se pode falar-pensar-fazer antropologia e uma experimentação etnográfica e entende a etnicidade como uma forma importante de protestos eminentemente políticos (CUNHA, 2017). Portanto, entendemos que a (contra)mestiçagem é um processo que tenta se livrar do mito das três raças (branco, índio e negro), dos (pre)conceitos e racismos e a identidade é sempre um fenômeno relacional e a etnicidade é uma ideologia, no sentido lato de fazer passar o outro pelo mesmo e pode ser mais bem entendida se vista em situação, como uma forma de organização política (CUNHA, 2017), um elemento de configurações das ações humanas nos espaços de convivências sociais, refere-se aos aspectos das relações entre grupos sociais que se reconhecem a si próprios como diferentes e possui caráter subjetivo de construção de nossas identidades sociais e hierarquias.

Authors: Troya Carlos , Zambrano Diego , Loor Juan , Briones Elizabeth , Chica Christian
Published: August 2018

Objetivo: Evaluar la aplicación de las guías de manejo de diabetes mellitus tipo 2 que han demostrado una reducción de la mortalidad en los pacientes con esta enfermedad en pacientes atendidos en un establecimiento rural en el Carmen, Manabí (Ecuador) durante el periodo mayo a agosto de 2016.

Metodología: Se diseñó y aplicó una entrevista estructurada a los pacientes que acudieron a la consulta externa del Hospital Básico El Carmen en el periodo mayo a agosto de 2016. Los elementos destacados de la encuesta estuvieron relacionados con variables sociodemográficas pero sobre todo vinculados con el cumplimiento de las guías de tratamiento de la enfermedad que han demostrado reducción de la mortalidad de la diabetes: abandonar el hábito de fumar,  reducción de la tensión arterial, uso de metformina, empleo de estatinas y control glicémico.

Resultados: Se observó un cumplimiento promedio de 47% del total de las recomendaciones requeridas para reducir mortalidad en los pacientes con diabetes mellitus. Las recomendaciones que mayor cumplimiento tuvieron fueron no fumar (97,3), el empleo de metformina además de algún otro medicamento antidiabético (82%) y el uso de antihipertensivos (43,3%). Las recomendaciones que obtuvieron la aplicación más baja fueron dieta y actividad física (15,3%) y uso de estatinas (28%).

Conclusiones: Se requiere desarrollar esfuerzos para fomentar la aplicación de las recomendaciones que benefician a los pacientes con diabetes mellitus. La aplicación de las recomendaciones observada en esta comunidad rural es similar a la observada en otros estudios. Existen recomendaciones cuya utilidad es muy clara en  países anglosajones, pero su relevancia debe analizarse para contextos rurales latinoamericanos. Se necesitan estudios más amplios para poder identificar los factores relacionados con la aplicación de estas recomendaciones.

This paper aims to review current research and advancement in prevention and management of breast cancer. Occurrence of breast cancer has increased globally in the last decade. It been recorded that 15% of cancer-specific breast cancer. It is a comprehensive literature review on Breast cancer and its dependent variables created a theoretical foundation of the paper. Using the review-centric theory, a model was developed and presented to encapsulate the knowledge of the benefits associated with exercise on breast cancer outcomes through adiposity and immunological mechanisms. The model highlights breast cancer and its relationship with immunological biomarkers, obesity-related biomarkers, exercise or physical activity, biomarkers for adiposity. However more research is needed to understand the use of low doses of radiation inadequate screening, sometimes a screening test may not be able to show with certainty that there is no cancer, or occasionally may miss breast cancer. Overtreatment, some breast cancers that are found by mammography would never become a health problem in the woman’s lifetime. False negatives, other test results miss breast cancer. This shows how signs and symptoms of breast cancer, causes ad risks factors associated with breast cancer, treatment of breast cancer and the management of breast cancer malignancy can help in the decreased of mortality rate in woman and men who has and are likely to test malignancy to breast cancer disease.

Authors: Ozovehe Aliyu
Published: August 2018

This work investigates busy hour traffic demand pattern of mobile soft switch (MSS) over a period of two years and propose the application of Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) polynomial neural network for seven-days to three-month ahead busy hour (BH) traffic forecasting for effective optimization of network resources. Busy hour call attempt (BHCA) utilization and A-interface utilization key performance indicators (KPI) are used as inputs into GMDH prediction model and BH traffic as model target. The performance of the model was evaluated based on three statistical performance indices: mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), root mean square percentage error (RMSPE) and goodness of fit (R2) values. Experimental results show that R2 value as high as 96% was achieved with the proposed model for both short-term and mid-term forecasting. The GMDH model proves an effective tool for accurate prediction of traffic demand and hence, proper optimization of GSM/GPRS MSS network resources.
Experiences of the GPU Thread Configuration and Shared Memory
Authors: Kim DaeHwan
Published: August 2018

Nowadays, GPU processors are widely used for general-purpose parallel computation applications. In the GPU programming, thread and block configuration is one of the most important decisions to be made, which increases parallelism and hides instruction latency. However, in many cases, it is often difficult to have sufficient parallelism to hide all the latencies, where the high latencies are often caused by the global memory accesses. In order to reduce the number of  those accesses, the shared memory is instead used which is  much faster than the global memory being located on a chip. The performance of the proposed thread configuration is evaluated on the GPU 960 processor. The experimental result shows that the best configuration improves the performance by 7.3 times compared to the worst configuration in the experiment. The experiences are also discussed for the shared memory performance when compared to that of the global memory.
Em busca de uma iniciativa histórica africana: possibilidades e limites das práticas pedagógicas na educação básica
Authors: Araujo Débora
Published: August 2018

Este artigo apresenta um conjunto de atividades desenvolvidas em turmas de 6º ano do ensino fundamental durante as aulas de língua portuguesa, com a proposta de promover rupturas epistemológicas na compreensão das crianças sobre cultura, estética e história africanas. Para tanto, utiliza como referenciais analíticos as produções das crianças, além de uma revisão teórica do campo das práticas pedagógicas e dos marcos legais que fundamentam a educação das relações étnico-raciais no Brasil. As modificações curriculares (ainda em curso) demandadas pela aprovação de um conjunto de leis, resoluções e diretrizes que fomentam o ensino de história e cultura afro-brasileira e africana na educação brasileira têm sido produzidas em campos de tensões, negociações e muitas vezes rupturas epistêmicas. Soma-se a forte tendência de conteúdos e práticas pedagógicas eurocêntricos, influenciados por um padrão de poder que emergiu como resultado do colonialismo moderno, a colonialidade. O que as práticas aqui descritas revelaram é que os limites ainda são muitos diante da força da colonialidade. O desafio que se apresenta à escola é, portanto, pensar outras possibilidades pedagógicas para subverter tal colonialidade e avançar na construção de um ensino fundamentado no reconhecimento de que a produção intelectual, política, cultural e social africana e afro-brasileira é necessária à formação escolar da população brasileira.

Published: August 2018

The article aims to investigate impacts of determinants on energy use in 13 Asian countries for the past two decades (1996-2015) by employing a panel database. We found that electric power per capita, fossil fuel consumption, fuel exports, and gross domestic product (GDP) per unit of energy use have positives influences on energy use in Asia. However, fuel imports and investment in energy with participation of the private negatively affects energy use in this region. Our results also addressed that energy use in Asian countries still heavily depends upon fossil energy such as coal, oil, and natural gas. Indeed, our findings stated that economic growth is a positive motivation in terms of enhancing energy use in Asia. Lastly, policies are recommended to ensure energy security and foster economic growth in Asia.

Published: August 2018

This study aims to identify and elaborate the Non-Discrimination Principles of the GATS related to the use of foreign workers in the provisions of tourism. The main non-discriminatory principle used in this study is the principle of Most Favoured Nation (MFN) and National Treatment. Indonesia agreed to be bound on GATS by promulgating law Number 7 the year 1994 regarding the Ratification of Agreement on Establishing the World Trade Organisation, that ensures Indonesia to obedient non-discrimination principle on Indonesia’s regulations. As a member of GATS, Indonesia must submit a schedule of commitments that explain the types of services that are ready to apply the principle of non-discrimination. This research is a normative legal research by examining norms, principles, and related legal aspect of foreign labor in Indonesia. The authors found that there was a conflict of norms in the application of the GATS non-discrimination principle in Indonesian labor law in the trade of foreign labor services. Indonesia actually has its own sovereignty that can not be imposed by any party and in the application of GATS non-discrimination principle not by contradicting Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia as the basis of the development of employment.

Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan mengelaborasi Prinsip Non Diskriminasi GATs terkait penggunaan Tenaga Kerja Asing dalam ketentuan kepariwisataan.

Weighting Approaches on Online Sexual Abuse of Children: Cultural Prevention or Crime-Based Enforcement?
Authors: Sofian Ahmad , Pratama Bambang , Talerico Chiara
Published: August 2018

Online Child Sexual Exploitation (OCSE) is a form of crime against children that can be reviewed from various perspectives such as criminal law, criminology and culture. This offence is governed in several international legal instruments because perpetrators and victims are often located in different territories or have different nationalities. The Optional Protocol on Sale of Children, Child Prostitution and Child Pornography (OPSC) is one that provides a reference in combating this crime, but this instrument has the disadvantage of not providing specific guidance in overcoming sexual crimes of children who are in the online sphere. OPSC focuses more on child pornography, whereas OCSE has evolved rapidly enough to give birth to new forms of crime that are not just child pornography. Another weakness can be found in national laws, due to the lack, or limited, response to address the issue. Therefore, a cultural approach is important to prevent and tackle this problem. This paper is aimed to weight the needs to use a Preventive Cultural approach and a Crime-Based Enforcement in addressing Online Sexual  Abuse in Indonesia. It is a normative legal research that reads various primary and secondary legal materials. The study recommends that there is a need to use appropriate legal terminology and provide a clear interpretation of the terminology in national law so that these crimes can be quickly addressed. In addition, it also argued that cultural approaches may be used to prevent the occurrence of OSCE by means of involving the community and religious leaders, educating family, as well as raising the awareness of children.

The effect of allotropic carbon modification content, graphene (G), in the range of 0.5 – 2.0 wt.% on tribological, strength and structural characteristics of Al2O3/G nanocomposite processed by 10-min plasma spark sintering (pressure 50 MPa, temperature 1550 °C) of nanopowder mixture previously subjected to ultrasonic dispersion in organic solvent is studied. The results of tests for friction and wear without lubricant on a tribometer under a load of 20 N at room temperature and roundabout motion of a ruby ball penetrator on a disk are presented along with data on kinetic indentation with determination of the nanohardness and elastic module and observations of the fracture surface structure and friction track using a scanning microscope. Methods of the transmission electron microscopy of thin foils in dark and bright fields and Raman spectroscopy, respectively, were used to determine the microstructure in the bulk of a nanocomposite and prove the graphene thermal stability during plasma spark sintering. It is shown that introduction of graphene contributes to the increase of micro- and nanohardness, elastic modulus, wear resistance by two or three orders of magnitude and a slight decrease in the coefficient of friction. Increase in graphene content to 2 wt.% changes the wear mechanism from brittle breakage to viscous shear due to strengthening in coupling of matrix grains and presnrce of agglomerates. Lack of degradation and retention of graphene thermal stability are proved. The morphology of graphene particles indicates to their preferential arrangement inside the corundum grains and more rarely — on the grain boundaries.

Published: August 2018

Processing of metals by pressure suggests using of various measuring devices. We developed and manufactured a device for measuring angular deformations upon elastic and plastic torsion of circular specimens. The design is based on the operation principle of the planetary mechanism without a movable solar central wheel. Design of the device is based on the Boyarshinov concept added with a round protractor with a graduated scale from 0 to 360° and rotating needle placed on the axis to indicate the angular displacement. The use of the planetary gear significantly improves the accuracy of measuring the angles of rotation of the cross sections of the sample relative to each other at a distance of the calculated length. To low the weight of the device, the main parts were made of aluminum alloy D16Т. Rated diameters of the central wheel and satellite are D1 = 220 mm, D3 = 20 mm, respectively; the linkage module m = 1 mm; the number of teeth on the wheel and satellite is 220 and 20, respectively. Laboratory tests of the device were carried out on a KM-50 torsional machine using a cylindrical sample with a diameter of 15 mm and a working length of 120 mm made of steel 40Kh. The results provided determination of the elastic shear modulus with a deviation of ~2.5% of the reference value. Experimental data were used to plot the torsion diagram and then to get shear diagram τ = τ(γ) according to P. Ludwik’s formula. This diagram was transformed into the hardening curve σ = σ(e) using von Mises theory of the plasticity. The obtained mechanical characteristics allowed us to draw a conclusion on the essential accuracy of measuring angular displacements using the developed device. Thus, the developed and easy to use device can be recommended as testing equipment for determination of the mechanical characteristics of materials under conditions of shear deformations.
Maternal nutritional knowledge and its association with iron deficiency anemia in children
Authors: Ismail Ameera , Fahima Fatima
Published: August 2018

Background: Young children are more prone to the development of Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA). The most important factor of IDA in children is maternal nutritional knowledge because mothers are the sole source for providing diets to their children. Therefore, this study was intended to assess the maternal knowledge of child nutrition, hemoglobin (Hb) status of children and effect of maternal knowledge of anemia on its prevalence in children.

Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted to evaluate the prevalence of anemia in young children. In total, 143 pairs of children (2 – 10 years) along with their mothers were randomly selected. Data was collected by conducting interviews from mothers, using a structured questionnaire for their knowledge on child nutrition. Portable hemoglobinometer was used for identifying the Hb status of children. Data was analyzed using Statistical Project of Social Science (SPSS) version 22.

Result: It was evaluated that 4 out of 5 children were anemic. Out of total participant in the study, 7.69% of mothers were found to have a poor nutritional knowledge and all of their children were anemic. Approximately 63.64% mothers had average knowledge and 86.8% of their children were anemic while the rest were okay. Moreover, 28.67% of mothers with high nutritional knowledge had 58.5% anemic children and the rest was fine. The relationship between maternal nutrition knowledge and Hb level of children was highly significant (p<0.001).

Conclusion: Maternal knowledge about nutrition is associated with the prevalence of anemia in their children and it is one of the major modifiable factors.
The Anti-thymocyte Globulin use makes kidney transplantation journey smooth
Authors: Mahmood Akbar , Ahmed Tanveer , Kunwar Muhammad Aqeel  , Muhammad Imran  , Anwer Nosheen
Published: August 2018

Background: The most common immunosuppressant, Anti-thymocyte Globulin (ATGs) has been widely used by clinicians for the treatment and prevention of rejection at the time of organ transplant. Transplantation is the best option for the people with renal failure at end stage, requiring replacement of renal therapy. This is a promising treatment option with significant benefits in terms of mortality and morbidity. ATG prevents organ rejection by inhibition of activated T-cells and other immune and non-immune cells. The aim of the study was to compare different induction regimens with ATG for the survival of smooth kidney transplantation.

Methodology: Studies of the last 20 years, focusing on kidney transplantation and the efficacy of anti-thymocyte use for kidney transplantation were reviewed for the study literature. The keywords used were Kidney Transplantation, Induction agents, ATG, Allograft, Immunosuppressant Agents.

Results: Literature suggested that the most important problem with transplantation is the protection of the allograft from activated immunological forces, which begin to react early in the period after transplantation and cause significant damage with serious short-term and long-term consequences. This process is called rejection, which is usually classified as cell-mediated and antibody-mediated rejection. The phenomenon mediated by cells causes concern, as it is the cause of future failures and damage to the allograft. To combat these phenomena with different results, various strategies were adopted. Among these therapies, ATG has recognized the exceptional importance of preventing cellular mediated rejection, allowing allotransplants to function smoothly with the greatest possible long-term benefits.

Conclusion: It can be concluded on the basis of previous studies that ATG as an induction agent, is more efficient in reducing the rejection rate in the renal transplantation as compared with other agents.

Population of brown plant hopper (Nilaparvata lugens Stal) is one of the major rice pest that is threatening rice production in Indramayu. Integrated pest management is needed to control the population of brown plant hopper (BPH). To construct effective strategy of Integrated Pest Management, a survey to obtain information about the population of BPH and the diversity of its natural enemies predator and parasitoid is required. The result of the survey showed that fluctuation of BPH population was evidence. BPH occurs from the 1st week of observation and the population was rising until the 5th week of observation and hence the population declined until the 12th week of observation. This population decline was caused by BPH’s live cycle followed the growth phase of rice plant. Correlation between climate factors and fluctuation of BPH population was not significant. Based on Shanon-Wiener diversity index analysis, the diversity of natural predators of BPH was medium with the value of H’ of 1,83 due to  uniform field condition

Weeds in rice fields decrease the quantity and quality of yield. One of the methods used to control weeds is chemical herbicide. The objective of this research was to find out the effective dosages of herbicide Ethoxysulfuron 15 WG on weeds growth as well as growth and yield of rice plants var. Ciherang. This experiment was used Randomized Block Design with seven treatments and four replication. The Ethoxysulfuron doses trated to rice field  6 g/ha,  9 g/ha, 12 g/ha, 15 g/ha and 18 g/ha. The two control treatments were  mechanical weeding, and without weeding and herbicide. The experimental result showed that Ethoxusylfuron herbicide with the dosage of 9 g/ha could suppress the growth of weed Ludwigia adscendens, Ludwigia perrenis, Fimbristylis miliacea,other weeds, and total weeds and give a good impact on yield of rice plants.

Mutation breeding  using gamma-ray irradiation is one way to improve thevariability of bambara groundnuts. Improved variability can increase the effectiveness of selection on bambara groundnuts. The objective of this research was to obtain some genotypes of bambara groundnut of M2 generation that are of early maturity and high yield from gamma-ray irradiation through phenotypic selection. The experimental design was Spatial Plan, using the descriptive-comparative method. Bambara groundnuts accessions (KB-29 (1)) were treated with gamma-ray irradiation with different doses namely 100 Gy, 150 Gy, and 200 Gy. The results of this study showed that the phenotypic variability of the population irradiated by gamma rays 100 Gy, 150 Gy, and 200 Gy on the character of flowering time, harvest time, and all yielding ability characters was broad. The results of selection obtained 30 of the best genotypes that have advantages in the character of early maturity based on scoring value.
Legitimasi Pemilihan Kepala/Wakil Kepala Daerah dalam Sistem Pemerintahan Otonomi Daerah
Authors: Pardede Marulak
Published: August 2018

Pelaksanaan pemilihan kepala daerah (Pilkada) menimbulkan permasalahan hukum sehubungan dengan dilakukan dengan cara hanya memilih kepala daerah saja atau bersama sama satu paket dengan wakilnya. Aturan yang berlaku dewasa ini, pilkada hanya untuk memilih kepala daerah, tidak termasuk wakilnya. Sebagai konsekuensinya wakil kepala daerah tidak otomatis menggantikan kepala daerah yang berhalangan tetap, tetapi harus dilakukan  pemilihan melalui DPRD, dengan calon yang diajukan oleh partai pengusung kepala daerah yang diganti. Berdasarkan fakta, pilkada satu paket menimbulkan persoalan setelah mereka terpilih dan memerintah diantara kepala dan wakilnya. Legitimasi kepala daerah dan wakilnya mempunyai derajat yang berbeda, dua-duanya jabatan politik, bukan jabatan karier. Permasalahan hukum tentang legitimasi kepemimpinan kepala daerah dan wakil, dapat dikemukakan sebagai berikut, yaitu: Bagaimanakah dinamika perkembangan hukum tentang pemilihan kepala/wakil kepala daerah di Indonesia?; dan Bagaimanakah legitimasi pemilihan kepala/wakil kepala daerah dalam pemerintahan otonomi daerah di Indonesia? Dengan menggunakan metode perbandingan hukum dan metode pendekatan yuridis normatif dan sosiologis; serta tipe penelitian deskriptif; Alat Penelitian studi kepustakaan/normatif (library studies), dan studi dokumen (documentary studies) dari bahan primer dan sekunder, dan metode analisis data kualitatif, dapat dikemukakan bahwa: Dengan hanya memilih kepala daerah, berarti telah sesuai dengan amanat Pasal 18 Ayat 4 UUD 1945, yaitu hanya memilih kepala daerah saja (gubernur, walikota, bupati). Tidak ada ketentuan di dalam konstitusi yang mengatur tentang wakil kepala daerah, sebagaimana diaturnya ketentuan tentang wakil presiden.Wakilnya dipilih sendiri oleh kepala daerah terpilih, sesuai juga dengan Perpu Pilkada. Oleh karenanya di masa mendatang sistem pemilihan kepala daerah perlu ditinjau ulang.

Penegakan hukum harus memberikan akses yang seluas-luasnya untuk memberikan perlindungan hukum. Selain itu juga harus dapat membuktikan dakwaannya secara lebih mudah dengan mendasarkan pada putusan Pengadilan Tata Usaha Negara. Tulisan ini hendak menguraikan permasalahan mengenai penyalahgunaan wewenang administrasi oleh aparatur pemerintah yang dikualifikasikan melawan hukum. Dalam tataran teoritis penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan sumbangan pikiran terhadap perkembangan dan pembaruan hukum di bidang Administrasi Pemerintahan dan tindak pidana korupsi yang selama ini diterapkan terhadap apatur pemerintahan yang menjalankan aktivitas pemerintahan dengan menggunakan diskresi dimana penggunaan kewenangan tersebut berakibat pidana. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian hukum dengan jenis penelitian yuridis normatif dan menggunakan pendekatan undang-undang, pendekatan historis, dan pendekatan konseptual. Adapun kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah Undang Undang Administrasi Pemerintahan telah merumuskan dan mengkategorisasikan 3 (tiga) bentuk tindakan larangan penyalahgunaan wewenang yaitu: larangan melampaui wewenang, larangan mencampuradukkan wewenang, dan larangan bertindak sewenang-sewenang. Dengan adanya Undang-Undang Nomor 30 Tahun 2014 tentang Administrasi Pemerintahan sudah seharusnya dapat menjadi rujukan bagi penyidik KPK untuk tidak melakukan penangkapan penyidikan terhadap terdakwa sebelum adanya putusan dari peradilan Tata Usaha Negara yang berkekuatan hukum tetap.

Business, Transnationalism, and Patrimony
Authors: Enriquez Falina
Published: August 2018

This article examines how musicians involved in the government sponsored music scene in Recife, the capital of the Brazilian state of Pernambuco, (meta)musically perform different versions of the ‘entrepreneurial self,’ a form of neoliberal subjectivity. Through comparing specific musicians’ practices and narratives, I argue Pernambucan state sponsorship is a mechanism which redefines citizenship on entrepreneurial terms and reinforces structural inequality. As government programs provide new opportunities to formalize and professionalize their labor, musicians face more bureaucratic and socioeconomic challenges that require them to broaden their musical labor to include skills like social media marketing and grant proposal writing. These expectations are difficult enough for middle-class, educated musicians to meet, but even harder for marginalized, lower-class, and racialized citizens to manage. By comparing how three musicians construct themselves as business-oriented, transnational, or patrimonial entrepreneurs, the article makes explicit what similar studies suggest, but often leave implicit: professionalism and entrepreneurialism are increasingly interdependent. Furthermore, while the entrepreneurial self is predicated on autonomy, these musicians' autonomy paradoxically depends on a combination of social networks and state sponsorship. In sum, the article reveals how individuals are creating new subjectivities to adapt to changing economic conditions.
