Analysis of Governance Complexity on Subsidized LPG in Indonesia: A Three-level Institutional Approach
Authors: Rochman Naufal Noor , Kasim Azhar , Atmoko Andreo Wahyudi
Published: March 2023

Subsidized liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) policies aim to ensure the efficient and effective supply and distribution of LPG so that the benefits of subsidies are on target. However, there is a gap between planned policies and actual reality. However, in order to achieve better governance of subsidized LPG policies, the causes of inconsistencies must be analyzed by the government. In this paper, we analyze the governance of subsidized LPG policies based on an institutional theory approach using the three levels of analysis and outcomes framework to find out the causes of policy inconsistencies by exploring policy structures and subsidized LPG management. The author proposes that this framework should be integrated into the improvement of subsidized LPG management and strategies. Further research is needed to analyze the impact and consequences of LPG transformation policies to estimate the benefits and challenges of implementing policy reforms.

Innovation and Bureaucratic Reform in Indonesia's Judiciary
Authors: Dewi Lies Kumara , Putubasai Erwin , Amallia Neysa , Anum Adelina , Handayani Nirmala , Lestari Mahya Lydia
Published: March 2023

Bureaucratic reform is a major change in paradigm and governance that aims to create a professional government bureaucracy with adaptive characteristics and integrity, free from corruption, collusion, and nepotism, capable of serving the public with accountability, and upholding the organization’s basic values and the code of ethics for state apparatus behavior. Bureaucratic reform is related to efforts to create innovation. Along with the birth of the bureaucratic reform policy, innovation was also born. Bureaucratic reform is based on Presidential Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 81 of 2010 concerning the Grand Design of Bureaucratic Reform 2010-2025, which mandates that a bureaucratic reform road map be prepared every 5 years in each Ministry/State/Government Agency. To implement the mandate of bureaucratic reform, the Supreme Court, as the State institution holding the highest judicial power, launched an innovation in case registration and trial electronically, namely the e-Court (electronic Court) application by utilizing the sophistication of technology, information, and internet networks. E-Court can be interpreted as an application used to process lawsuit or petition registration, electronic case payments, and electronic trial calls. Although there are still obstacles in the implementation of the e-Court system, its presence as the latest innovation from the Supreme Court in the framework of bureaucratic reform is very appropriate because it makes the implementation of the e-Court system more efficient. Bureaucratic reform is very appropriate because it makes the judiciary accessible to all levels of society.

Multistakeholder Education Model in Strengthening Literacy and Disaster Awareness in Lampung Province
Authors: Hutagalung Simon Sumanjoyo , Indrajat Himawan
Published: March 2023

An individual level of disaster awareness ultimately influences the approach and nature of actions taken to mitigate and prepare for disasters, and can contribute to reducing community vulnerability to disasters, especially among those from low socioeconomic backgrounds. Furthermore, a better understanding of the critical differences in information-seeking behavior can assist in designing effective intervention models and approaches. Therefore, this paper discusses the model for strengthening local communities’ disaster awareness and information literacy behavior. Mixed method research is based on research questions using case studies from two local governments in Lampung Province; Bandar Lampung City and South Lampung Regency. Quantitative analysis was performed with simple statistics. Meanwhile, qualitative analysis was carried out using an interactive model assisted by triangulation tables. The solution that can be used so that disaster education and literacy become strong and equitable is to combine it with a specific approach. The approach we suggest in this research is the concept of multistakeholder education.

Published: March 2023

The complexity of the problems faced by Indonesian migrant workers (IMW) is a problem that needs to be taken seriously. One of the efforts made by the government to overcome this is the productive migrant village (PMV) Program. Among the regions that are considered successful in implementing the program is Ponorogo Regency. This is shown by the appreciation from the Minister of Manpower for the way IMW was handled. Based on this background, the purpose of this research is to analyze the implementation of the PMV Program for IMW in Ponorogo Regency. This research is an exploratory qualitative research. The subjects and informants in this study were the village government, the implementer of the PMV program, and the family of IMW, IMW, or former IMW. The focus of this research is the implementation of the PMV policy for IMW in Ponorogo Regency. Data were collected using interview, observation, and documentation techniques, with the research instrument being the researcher himself. Furthermore, the data is processed qualitatively. Paringan Village has four pillars in the PMV program: 1) Migration Service Center, 2) Productive Business Activities, 3) Community Parenting, and 4) Business Cooperatives. As a stimulus program, the four pillars still have an element of sustainability even though the program has been completed. However, the role of the village government and local government is still needed to ensure sustainability.

Implications of the Dynamic Capability of Thinking Again, the General Election Commission's (KPU) Rumah Pintar Pemilu (RPP) Program in Voter Participation in 2018 Elections
Authors: Saleha Eha , Wulandari Florentina Ratih
Published: March 2023

Anticipating the low voter participation in elections, the General Elections Commission (KPU) of the Republic of Indonesia initiated a political education program for voters to increase voter participation by making a pilot project for the establishment of the Election Rumah Pintar Pemilu (RPP) with a target of 549 houses to be built including one in the central KPU, 34 RPP in provinces, and the rest in districts/cities throughout Indonesia. People, on the other hand, are more interested in learning about the election through other media rather than visiting the election smart house. How the implications of the dynamic capability of the smart home election program think again in increasing voter participation in the 2018 regional head election is interesting to examine using a case study method involving informants from the Public Relations and Technical Division of the Indonesian KPU and Regional KPU. The results showed that the implementation of the provision of RPP KPU RI throughout Indonesia starting from 2015 to 2018 had reached 514 RPP at the provincial, city, and district levels. Of the 8 RPPs that were observed directly, starting from the RPP KPU RI, RPP KPU Serang City, Lebak Regency, North Sumatra Province, Bogor City, Garut Regency and East Lombok Regency, and East Barito Regency RPP. Only the RPP of the KPU RI and the City of Bogor have sufficient complete facilities, while the 5 RPPs are still not in accordance with the standards of the Guidelines for the Provision of the KPU RI. In providing the RPP, the Indonesian KPU carried out top-down communication through official letters and meetings with the regional KPU in 2015, which was then realized in its establishment from 2016 to 2018 using the RI KPU budget taken from the voter education budget. The difficulty in providing KPU’s RPP is that the KPU building or office is borrowed from the local government, and there is no special staff for the regional KPU to handle the RPP and the activities in it. Willingness and skills of implementers who do not understand politics, democracy and voter education, and the bureaucratic structure in regional KPUs do not support the RPP as a means of voter education and as an effort to increase the number of voter participation in the 2018 direct regional head elections so that voter participation does not reach the target of the KPU RI. In the 2018 Pilkada, which had a target voter turnout of 77.5%; however, participation was only 73.24%. At 2015 regional election participation rate was 69%. The implementation of the election smart home program needs to be evaluated thoroughly because the amount of support issued does not increase voter participation and intelligence.

Développement financier et productivité agricole en Afrique subsaharienne
Authors: Dial Mouhamadou Lamine , Diouf Mamadou
Published: March 2023

Cet article évalue les relations de causalité entre développement financier et productivité agricole en Afrique subsaharienne et dans les zones d'intégration économique de 1990 à 2020. La méthodologie utilisée repose sur le modèle ARDL avec l'estimateur PMG et un test de causalité en panel. Les résultats révèlent que le développement financier a un effet positif à long terme mais négatif à court terme sur la productivité agricole aussi bien en Afrique subsaharienne que dans l'UEMOA. Cependant, l'analyse par zone montre qu'à court terme, le développement financier diminue la productivité agricole dans la SADC. Ils montrent aussi qu'il existe une causalité bidirectionnelle entre le développement financier et la productivité agricole en ASS. Cette situation nécessite donc la construction d'un système financier efficace et adapté aux réalités du monde agricole.
Effets de la bancarisation sur la croissance économique au Congo
Authors: Mbouayila Franck Mondesir Tsassa , Mouakassa Prudence Love Angèle
Published: March 2023

L'objectif poursuivi dans cet article est d'analyser les effets de la bancarisation sur la croissance économique du Congo. Pour atteindre cet objectif, du point de vue empirique, il fait appel au modèle à correction d'erreur. Il ressort de nos résultats que le taux de bancarisation n'a pas d'impact significatif sur la croissance économique au Congo à court et long termes. Ce résultat peut s'expliquer par le faible niveau de bancarisation. D'où pour que la bancarisation soit capable d'impulser la croissance au Congo, il faut améliorer le taux de bancarisation. Pour ce faire, il est important de mettre un accent particulier sur la distribution du microcrédit, qui revêt, une grande importance pour l'insertion des populations défavorisés ; d'assouplir les conditions d'ouverture des comptes et d'ouvrir des agences bancaires dans les zones rurales.

Published: March 2023

Diabetes mellitus type 2 is a chronic metabolic condition whose incidence has been continuously growing around the world. As a result of this tendency, it is quickly becoming an epidemic in some parts of the world, with the number of individuals affected anticipated to double in the next decade as the world's population ages, adding to the already existing load on healthcare providers, particularly in poor developing countries. World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines are still used for screening and diagnosis, which include both clinical and laboratory characteristics. There is currently no cure for the disease; however, therapy options include lifestyle changes, obesity management, oral hypoglycemic medications, and insulin sensitizers such as metformin, a biguanide that reduces insulin resistance which is used as first line medication especially for obese patients. The traditional herbal medicine like garlic, neem, bitter gourd, aloe vera, onion, methi, amla, jamun, baheda etc. are also used for the treatment of the diabetes. Other effective medication includes non-sulfonylurea secretagogues, thiazolidinediones, alpha glucoside inhibitors, and insulin. Recent research into the biology of type 2 diabetes has led to the development of new medications such as glucagon-like peptide 1 analogues: dipeptidyl peptidase inhibitors, sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, and 11-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 inhibitors, insulin releasing glucokinase activators. The novel drug delivery improves the treatment of diabetes by the inhaled insulin.

In a case study of creating an early-alert retention system at James Madison University, a working group of ~20 faculty, staff, and students creatively utilized the AIRR framework. The present study discusses how the AIRR framework was utilized to observe and enhance group processes, and the outcomes of those enhanced processes.
Learning Analytics and the Abolitionist Imagination
Authors: Swauger Shea , Kalir Remi
Published: March 2023

This article advances an abolitionist reframing of learning analytics (LA) that explores the benefits of productive disorientation, considers potential harms and care made possible by LA, and suggests the abolitionist imagination as an important educational practice. By applying abolitionist concepts to LA, we propose it may be feasible to open new critiques and social futures that build toward equity-oriented LA design and implementation. We introduce speculative methods to advance three vignettes imagining how LA could be weaponized against students or transformed into a justice-directed learning tool. Our speculative methods aim to destabilize where power in LA has been routinely located and contested, thereby opening new lines of inquiry about more equitable educational prospects. Our concluding discussion addresses how speculative design and fiction are complementary methods to the abolitionist imagination and can be pragmatic tools to help build a world with fairer, more equitable, and responsible LA technologies.

El Sistema de Interconexión Eléctrica de los Países de América Central (SIEPAC) ha sido un motor de desarrollo para la región y a partir de su constitución los beneficios han sido cuantiosos mostrando avances socioeconómicos de gran importancia para los habitantes de la zona. El presente artículo muestra un modelado del Sistema Eléctrico Regional (SER) para realizar estudios de flujos de potencia usando el software ETAP (Electrical Transient Analyzer Program). Hasta donde tienen conocimiento los autores, solo existe un modelo del sistema regional centroamericano usando PSS/E (Power System Simulator for Engineering). En la presente investigación fueron simulados diversos escenarios, con condiciones de operación para distintas y variadas como son lo invierno y verano tanto en carga como generación en estado máximo, medio y mínimo. Se estudia una red de más de 2150 barras que abarca los países de Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica y Panamá. Comparando los datos obtenidos de flujos de potencia entre ETAP y PSS/E, se obtuvieron resultados satisfactorios pues las variaciones fueron menores al 0.5% de los flujos de potencia entre los países y de esta manera se validaron los resultados de ETAP a las mismas condiciones de análisis. Se concluye que, para fines académicos o de investigación el sistema de potencia de interconexión de Centroamérica, es posible simularlo utilizando la herramienta de ETAP, en sustitución de PSS/E, siendo esta última la utilizada hoy día por los operadores de la red centroamericana.
Mechanical properties of polycaprolactone microfilaments for muscular tissue engineering
Authors: Rojas-Rojas Laura , Teodolíto Guillén-Girón
Published: March 2023

Polymeric scaffolds can be fabricated as microfilaments to replicate the mechanical characteristics and biological configuration of skeletal muscles and tendons. The microfilaments used in this research were fabricated from polycaprolactone (PCL) pellets by extrusion and a spooling system without using solvents. Their mechanical properties were investigated by applying monotonic and dynamic loads on aligned grouped microfilaments using a customized grip adapter. The fabrication method was simple and produced a homogeneous microfilament with a 90 ± 3 µm diameter. The monotonic tests showed the elasticity of the microfilaments was E = 1863 ± 590 MPa, and their yield strength was σy = 242 ± 45 MPa. The dynamic load test results showed that PCL microfilaments resisted periodic loads for 5.3×105 cycles, retaining a maximum deformation of 55%. The fabricated microfilament has the potential to be used as a biomimetic polymeric scaffold suitable for mechanical stimulation because of its outstanding mechanical behavior during dynamic loading conditions.

El jacinto de agua (Eichhornia crassipes) se considera una especie invasora, debido a su alta adaptabilidad a un amplio tipo de ecosistemas, que afecta el equilibrio natural de los sistemas acuáticos. Su alto desarrollo incide en la reducción del oxígeno, la flora y la fauna en las fuentes de agua y a su difícil erradicación, haciendo necesario considerar buscar aplicaciones del uso de su biomasa, pudiéndose aprovechar como un recurso energético (bioetanol, biogás, briqueta, etc.), debido a que presenta una alta concentración de celulosa y hemicelulosa y un bajo contenido de lignina. La presente revisión muestra el potencial uso que tiene esta planta, indicando los diferentes tipos de procesos que se llevan a cabo para su transformación en la producción de bioetanol, justificando la selección de este tipo de materia prima, seguido de las fases de pretratamiento, hidrólisis, fermentación y destilación que sufre la misma, hasta llegar al producto final.

Los procesos postcosecha en los granos de cacao son determinantes para el desarrollo de aromas específicos. Sin embargo, dichas reacciones están supeditadas a las características iniciales de la semilla, dadas por la genética del material; haciendo importante conocer sus condiciones específicas y así lograr que las posibles mezclas durante la fermentación sean las más adecuadas. De acuerdo con lo anterior, el presente estudio, tiene como objetivo la caracterización de las variables fisicoquímicas durante la fermentación y el secado de materiales de cacao. Se seleccionaron diez materiales, siguiendo variables como % pérdida de peso, % de humedad (testa y cotiledón), pH (testa y cotiledón) e índice de fermentación durante las fases de fermentación y secado. Los datos fueron sometidos a un análisis de varianza por Anova y pruebas de comparación múltiple de Tukey a α= 0.05. Los resultados mostraron diferencia significativa en cuanto a % de húmeda del cotiledón, % de humedad testa, pH cotiledón, pH de testa e índice de fermentación, lo que sugiere la incidencia de la genética del material y su efecto sobre la calidad sensorial del cacao producido en Colombia que en su mayoría son mezclas.

O diagnóstico de câncer infantil é um evento extremamente difícil e impactante, capaz de causar consequências físicas e emocionais, inclusive para as mães. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa que objetivou investigar as vivências de mães de crianças em tratamento oncológico. Participaram 10 mães de crianças em tratamento oncológico que frequentam uma casa de apoio localizada na região norte do Rio Grande do Sul. As entrevistas foram analisadas por meio da análise de conteúdo de Bardin. Os resultados mostraram que o diagnóstico causa grande impacto e uma sensação de impotência diante da doença, ocasionando sentimentos de tristeza, medo e insegurança. As mães alteraram sua rotina em função dos cuidados com seus filhos e a casa de apoio exerceu papel fundamental no acolhimento e suporte. Sugere-se acompanhamento psicológico individual e grupo de apoio para as mães, a fim de auxiliá-las nesse período delicado e de sofrimento em suas vidas.

A presente pesquisa abordou o sofrimento psíquico e social de guardas municipais no exercício cotidiano de suas atividades, com suporte conceitual da Psicodinâmica do Trabalho. Seu objetivo consistiu em analisar as transformações decorrentes do desenvolvimento tecnológico dos dispositivos de segurança pública e seus efeitos para a saúde mental de trabalhadores desse ramo. A estratégia metodológica utilizada foi qualitativa, por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas realizadas junto à Guarda Municipal que atua em uma cidade localizada no interior do estado do Paraná, Brasil. A análise dos resultados evidenciou uma lacuna entre o trabalho prescrito e o trabalho real, bem como a falta de reconhecimento institucional e social, situações que tendem a tornar o trabalho penoso e sem sentido. Como conclusão, destaca-se que, diante da impossibilidade de transformação do sofrimento em prazer, diversos sintomas emergem na forma de acidentes de trabalho, adoecimento físico e sofrimento psíquico.

A não maternidade tem se tornado uma opção crescente no Brasil, onde atualmente 37% das mulheres encontram-se nesse grupo. Este artigo teve como objetivo levantar quais aspectos subjetivos estão envolvidos nessa opção. Tratou-se de pesquisa qualitativa, na qual foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com dez mulheres, convocadas a partir da técnica “Bola de Neve” (Snowball Sample), sendo cinco brancas e cinco negras, de diversas orientações sexuais e classes sociais, sem problemas de fertilidade e que escolheram não ter filhos. As entrevistas foram submetidas à Análise de Conteúdo (Bardin, 1977) e foram elencadas quatro categorias. Os resultados apontam que essas mulheres percebem a maternidade como um lugar de grande exigência social e forte renúncia dos projetos pessoais, para além de projetos profissionais. O não desejo de maternidade é ainda estigmatizado socialmente, e as maiores cobranças pela maternidade são feitas a mulheres heterossexuais. Novos estudos a partir da perspectiva de gênero são recomendados.

Este estudo teve como objetivo a identificação dos fatores associados aos transtornos mentais comuns (TMC) em motoristas de transporte coletivo de passageiros, em uma amostra de 258 motoristas pertencentes ao quadro funcional de duas empresas de transporte coletivo. Para a coleta de dados, foram utilizados o Questionário de Dados Sociodemográficos, Laborais e Estressores Ocupacionais e o Self-Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20). Realizaram-se análises bivariadas (qui-quadrado de Pearson) entre todas as variáveis independentes. Para a análise dos TMC e relação com as variáveis independentes, foi utilizada análise de regressão logística bivariada e a odds ratio (OR), que consiste na razão de chances de aquisição do agravo entre expostos e não expostos. Os resultados identificaram como preditoras dos transtornos mentais comuns as variáveis pouco tempo de intervalo; falta de suporte social; falta de autonomia; e escala de trabalho.

Published: March 2023

Introdução: O uso de drogas acarreta danos aos familiares de usuários. O objetivo deste artigo foi analisar a percepção de codependência e dos impactos da drogadição e as estratégias de enfrentamento dos familiares de usuários de substâncias psicoativas. Método: Estudo qualitativo exploratório, com 16 familiares de dependentes químicos integrantes de um grupo da Cruz Azul do Brasil, entidade sem fins lucrativos, que realiza um trabalho social cristão diacrônico visando ajudar dependentes do álcool e de outras drogas, seus familiares e outras pessoas afetadas direta ou indiretamente. Uma entrevista semiestruturada foi realizada e analisada a partir da Análise de Conteúdo. Resultados: Houve predomínio de mulheres (93,8%), com ensino superior, e 50% dos cuidadores eram companheiros/as. As vivências emocionais dos familiares foram associadas à autorresponsabilidade, autocrítica e autossacrifício. Como estratégias de enfrentamento, foram identificados o grupo de apoio da Cruz Azul, a rede de apoio e a espiritualidade/religiosidade. Discussão: Ao vivenciarem a doença do usuário, arriscam-se a adoecerem juntos, seja por um processo de codependência, seja por doenças psicossomáticas e psicológicas. Conclusão: Intervenções incluindo os familiares dos usuários e com profissionais de equipe multidisciplinar seriam importantes para promoção da saúde dos envolvidos.
