Authors: Muthmainnah Nur , Manggala Firmansyah Bayu Aji
Published: July 2024

This research investigates the impact of positive discipline on students’ self-esteem and how it is implemented. A pre-experimental study followed by observation was applied in this research. This research was carried out at an English department of an Islamic University in Salatiga, Indonesia. An English class consisting of 33 students was chosen through cluster random sampling, and an English teacher was the sampler of this research. The pre-post-test was given to 33 students and adapted from Sorensen’s Self-Esteem Questionnaire. The observation was also employed to gather further information on how the teacher implemented positive discipline in the class. Positive Discipline practices in the class are reflected in how the teacher motivates students, praises students’ work, helps students’ problems, and involves students in arranging learning. Further, the mean score of students’ self-esteem questionnaire is decreasing, which means their self-esteem is increasing. Although they are classified in similar levels from 18.42 (severely low self-esteem) to 17.12 (severely low self-esteem), they have improved their self-esteem score. On the other hand, the result of the paired sample T-test represents the less significant positive discipline effect on self-esteem. The paired sample T-test value is 0.092, which is higher than 0.05. Thus, implementing positive discipline over extended periods in EFL learning might significantly affect students’ self-esteem.

Authors: Diartho Herman Cahyo
Published: July 2024

Capture fisheries resources in Muncar Regency have enormous potential to support the lives of the community, especially fishermen. However, in these conditions, the volume of capture fisheries production in Muncar Regency has decreased. This research aims to direct sustainable development efforts in the capture fisheries subsector so that it can improve the welfare of fishermen. This is done by optimizing the use of fishery resources without ignoring economic, ecological (environmental), and social aspects. This research uses descriptive analysis methods. The results of measuring the level of sustainability of capture fisheries resources in Muncar District show that the average value is still low. From each dimension (economic, social, and environmental) several criteria have medium (M) and high (H) scores. This means that each dimension requires alternative recommendations to support sustainable capture fisheries development. It takes synergy from all levels of society to maintain the balance of the marine ecosystem. Increasing awareness of coastal communities is needed to maintain the balance of the capture fisheries resource ecosystem. Apart from that improving the quality of human resources in fishing communities is an important thing that the government can do to support the sustainable development of capture fisheries resources.

Authors: Agustin Grisvia , Mukhlis Imam
Published: July 2024

This research aims to analyze the costs and benefits, the break even point (BEP), and the payback period (PP) for installing a hydroponic system in Jongbiru village. From the results of this benefit-cost analysis it appears that the hydroponic organic vegetable business is a very potential small business both economically and socially. The economic potential of small hydroponic organic vegetable businesses can generate substantial profits in the short term. The social potential of small hydroponic vegetable businesses is to empower housewives who previously had no income, and have the ability to support the family needs and economy. In the future, we hope that each family can build a simple hydroponic vegetable installation. The results were as follows, 1) the benefits were much more than its costs, 2) BEP can be reached in Rp. 2,700,000 sales, and 3) the payback period is more than a year. The hydroponic installation can also be planted with a wide variety of vegetables and fruits to meet the nutritional needs of the family, and also fulfill market demands. The more varied the plants used in the hydroponic installation, the wider the benefit-cost analysis. In this way, more harvests are likely each year, with faster BEP and higher selling points.

Authors: Amin Abdilah , Gumilar Nadine Annisa , Effendi Aji Sofyan , ‎ Priyagus
Published: July 2024

Economic growth serves as a fundamental gauge for assessing the progress of a region’s economic development within a specific time frame, primarily driven by production activities. In the context of Indonesia, the economic growth of East Kalimantan Province stands as a positive indicator. It ranks among the top 10 provinces in the country, boasting a growth rate of 3.18%. Nevertheless, this positive growth is juxtaposed with a concerning poverty rate of 6.31%, signifying areas within East Kalimantan Province that require focused attention. One of the prominent contributing factors to this high poverty rate in East Kalimantan Province is the combined influence of the total population and the open unemployment rate (TPT). This composition plays a pivotal role in the region’s poverty scenario. This narrative aims to examine the direct correlation between population size, unemployment rates, and economic growth in East Kalimantan Province. Additionally, it endeavors to analyze how population numbers and unemployment rates, either directly or indirectly, impact poverty levels through their influence on economic growth in the same province. The dataset utilized in this study comprises secondary time series data spanning from 2011 to 2022, sourced from the BPS of East Kalimantan Province. Employing the path analysis method through SPSS 25 analysis tools, this research concludes that population size and the unemployment rate exert a direct influence on economic growth in East Kalimantan Province. However, their direct effects on poverty levels, along with economic growth, do not show significant correlations. Interestingly, the indirect effect of population size and unemployment rates on poverty levels, mediated through economic growth, is discernible. This suggests that while these factors may not directly impact poverty rates, their influence is manifest when channeled through the conduit of economic growth. The practical implications and theoretical contributions of this study will be further developed in subsequent research endeavors.

Authors: Habib Supriadi M. Hi , Mukhlis Imam
Published: July 2024

The objective of this study is to analyze the economic resilience of regions during the COVID-19 period that affected the Indonesian regional economy. Economic resilience can be identified by examining the development of leading sectors in the regional economy. This study uses secondary data in the form of time series using Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) data obtained from the Central Bureau of Statistics of Batu City, the Central Bureau of Statistics of Malang City, and the Central Bureau of Statistics of Kediri City from 2018 to 2021. All three cities are located in East Java Province, Indonesia. The analysis in this study involves using three methods: Location Quotient, Shift Share, and Klassen typology. The analysis results reveal that Batu City and Malang City show strong competitiveness and comparative advantages. On the other hand, Kediri City demonstrates relatively low competitiveness and comparative advantage, which can be attributed to the impact of the COVID-19 shock. Additionally, research results show that the sectors in Malang City have experienced rapid growth, with all sectors developing faster than in other regions. In contrast, the sectors contributing to Batu and Kediri’s Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) have experienced delayed development. The results of this study confirm that regional economic resilience still exists through the development of sectoral businesses that contribute to the overall value of Gross Regional Domestic Product in various regencies and cities within East Java Province.

Neglect of Young Widowed Women in Bojonegoro Regency
Authors: Soesantari Tri
Published: July 2024

This research aimed to determine the neglect experienced by young widows in Bojonegoro Regency and the efforts needed to improve their circumstances. 80% of widows are young widows under 35 years old. In reality, Young widows in Bojonegoro are often ignored by their families, society and government. This research used Erich Fromm’s theory to find the realities of young widows and the forms of neglect they receive. This research used qualitative methods by collecting data using purposive sampling and interviewing widows aged 26-35. The results of the research are that young widows in Bojonegoro Regency experience neglect because society and the government are more focused on providing support and attention to their children, not to the widowed themselves. Community treatment is also different between widows because their husbands die and divorce. The biggest problem that burdens young widows is economic problems. Efforts to increase the government’s and society’s awareness of young widowed women can be made in three ways: providing financial assistance, emotional assistance and providing decent work opportunities. The hope of implementing this research is to reduce the neglect of women, especially young widows in Bojonegoro Regency, and increase concern for them so that they are able to be more economically independent and play a role in society.

Marginalization of Women's Identity in a Matrilineal Community: A Study of Semende Community in South Sumatra, Indonesia
Authors: Arifin Zainal
Published: July 2024

This paper explored the marginalization of women in the Semende community, which is claimed to be matrilineal. According to Semende custom, the eldest daughter is given the power to inherit, manage, and utilize the family’s assets of housing and agricultural land. Those women are known as the tunggu tubang. However, according to custom, Semende males are also given the authority to influence the inheritance management carried out by the appointed women. The Semende custom allows the men to “judge” and test the appointed women to see if they are unable to carry out the management of the inheritance and even gain legitimacy if they want to manage the inherited property. This custom suggests that the Semende woman’s claim to have power over the inheritance must be questioned. The customary legitimacy of men being allowed to take over the inheritance if needed also confirms that the Semende females have been lulled away from their position as inheriterse. They appear to have the power over the inheritance, but in reality, they have been marginalized in the social structure of their society. For this reason, this article tries to describe the basis for the justification for taking over authority and power from women and the implications for the inherited customs of property and the social structure of the Semende community.

Published: July 2024

Maternal nutritional levels during pregnancy play an important role during pregnancy. Abnormal nutritional levels in the mother can influence pregnancy outcomes. The socio-economic status of parents is thought to be a strong factor in pregnancy outcomes. The pregnancy outcome is not only the mother’s responsibility, but also the father plays an important role. Therefore, the nutritional problems of pregnant women must be a shared responsibility. This study aimed to examine the characteristics of pregnant women who received dadih vla Ed supplementation in the city of Padang. This research was an observational study on 88 pregnant women in the working areas of Nanggalo, Kuranji, and Andalas Health Centers in 2022. Data was analyzed using chi-square and Fisher exacts. Access to health care was related to pregnancy outcomes, while characteristics and social economic status of parents are not directly related to pregnancy outcomes. Most children born with low birth weight and low birth length come from mothers who do not work; the mother’s education level is high, and the father’s education level is high. Socio-economic status may be a potential factor in giving birth to children with a higher birth length. This study concluded that policymakers should target the socioeconomic status of parents to improve pregnancy outcomes.

This research explored forest management goals - conservation and socio-economic goals. It is seen that the goal of socio-economic reduces forest conservation. The ideological conflict between the two approaches can be overcome through the management of property rights and access to forest resource utilization that is not for the purpose of local interests. Ownership rights to land in Minangkabau are in the hands of women, but men have the ability to determine the use of the land. The difference between property rights and access rights between women and men in processing customary land and Nagari land is a means of resolving conflicts between the government, traditional leaders and land managers in processing social forestry in the inheritance and matrilineal system of the Minangkabau community. This study focused on the role women play in conflict management of social forests in Nagari Sungai Buluh. From the results of research conducted using qualitative research methods and case study approaches, it was found that the role of women in conflict management included bringing together the community and the government in meetings discussing the planning and management of social forestry

Analyzing The Effectiveness of 30% Gender Affirmative Action Policy in Indonesia
Authors: Anggraini Dewi , Havifi Ilham , Puspika Sari Lusi , Gunawan Andre
Published: July 2024

The Indonesian government’s 30% Affirmative Action Policy addresses gender inequalities by bolstering women’s representation in strategic positions. This research investigated the policy’s effectiveness in achieving this goal and uncovered constraints hindering women’s active participation in politics. Grounded in both gender equality and affectivity theories, the study pinpoints key issues of gender imbalance and investigates the policy’s impact on organizational dynamics within the political sphere. A qualitative analysis, informed by a comprehensive literature review, suggested that the implementation of the 30% Affirmative Action Policy since the reform era has demonstrably contributed to an increase in female representation within the political sphere. However, the policy’s effectiveness remains contingent upon addressing various challenges, including the persistent underrepresentation of women across both legislative and executive positions, where the 30% target has yet to be consistently achieved. Key influential factors in the implementation of this policy include the roles of the government, political parties, and society. Nevertheless, the policy is crucial in reshaping social norms regarding gender roles in politics. Overall, this article provided a comprehensive overview of the effectiveness of the 30% Affirmative Action Policy in achieving optimal gender representation in Indonesia. Policy implications and recommendations for enhancing the sustainability and effectiveness of this policy were also discussed to advance women’s participation in various social and professional aspects of life in Indonesia.

Gender-based social movements in Indonesia emerged very late compared to countries in the Americas, Europe, and Australia. The New Men’s Alliance (Aliansi Laki-Laki Baru or ALB) is a gender-based social movement in Indonesia whose members are mostly men. The emergence of the New Men’s Alliance is a significant step in promoting gender equality and justice. This research aimed to identify the involvement of new men’s alliances through in-depth interviews with key ALB members and analysis of documents relevant to the research. Data were analyzed using Spardley analysis, which divided data into analysis and taxonomy domains. The research results showed that ALB actors have an important role in the formation of ALB, including other individuals, gender activists, scientists, and community members who are concerned about gender issues. Actor involvement was seen in various stages, such as conceptualizing the name of ALB, acting as an intermediary with other stakeholders, conducting online discussions through websites and social media platforms, and formulating a code of ethics when introducing it to other organizations. ALB organizes campaigns, seminars, and workshops to increase men’s awareness of gender issues while collaborating with women and feminist groups. ALB advocates for policy change by amplifying the voices of male advocates for gender equality in policy forums. ALB can influence normative and legal transformations that uphold gender justice. Overall, ALB has shown to be an important force in upholding gender equity and justice in Indonesia. By involving multiple stakeholders, gaining support from partner organizations, and implementing effective strategies, ALB makes an invaluable contribution to driving positive social transformation.

Authors: Berketa Kseniia , Dzyadevych Sergiy , Soldatkin Oleksandr
Published: July 2024

In this study, the additional enzyme catalase is added to the bioselective membrane of the monoenzyme biosensor to improve the analytical characteristics of the biosensor. In this case, catalase is used to increase the saturate the biomembrane with oxygen, and, accordingly, facilitate the passage of the reaction catalyzed by enzymes of the oxidase class. A standard monoenzyme conductometric biosensor based on glucose oxidase for glucose determination and a new bi-enzyme biosensor based on glucose oxidase and catalase were compared. The optimal method of coimmobilization of enzymes on the surface of the conductometric transducer was investigated, as well as the dependence of the biosensor performance on the concentration of catalase in the bioselective membrane. The stability of the biosensor preparation procedure and the reproducibility of its results were verified. The analytical characteristics of the proposed bi-enzyme biosensor are compared with the monoenzyme biosensor.
It is shown that the addition of catalase to the bioselective element of the biosensor as an additional enzyme significantly improves the analytical characteristics of the biosensor, including sensitivity, reproducibility of measurement results, and linear and dynamic ranges of operation. The developed method could be used in future to improve the parameters of other oxidase-based biosensors.

Published: July 2024

This article presents the results of a study of the legal significance of the category “socially significant information”, which is a novel in modern Russian criminal law. The content of this formulation is revealed, predetermined by the fact that it implies any information relevant to society, that is, information about events or facts that relate to an indefinite circle of people and are able to influence their vital activity. The correlation of categories of socially significant information and information about circumstances that pose a threat to the life and safety of citizens has been established. The conclusion is made, confirmed by the materials of judicial practice, according to which socially significant information covers the concept of these circumstances in its content. At the same time, it is substantiated that socially significant information is also the subject of crimes consisting in knowingly false reporting of an act of terrorism, as well as in spreading false information about the use of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. In addition, the article notes that an important feature of socially significant information as the subject of crimes provided for in Chapter 24 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation is its ability to influence public safety.

Purpose. Сlarification of the classification of ways of presenting the norms of law in articles of normative acts traditionally used in the domestic theory of state and law. Some points in the description of the ways of presenting legal norms, which have become textbook and are reflected in any textbook of the theory of state and law, do not fully correspond to real law-making practice and in this regard are far from being as indisputable as they seem at first glance. Methods: general scientific methods (description, analysis, synthesis, induction), private scientific methods of cognition of legal phenomena (legal-dogmatic method, method of analysis of normative legal texts).

From the point of view of techniques and means of textual presentation of the content of legal norms, there are direct, reference, blank, implicit and combined methods. The reality of the existence of these methods is confirmed by an analysis of current Russian legislation. Discussion. The article substantiates the idea that concretizes and develops the idea that has developed in legal science about the relationship between a legal norm and an article of a normative legal act. The conclusions drawn by the author are significant for improving the means and techniques of law-making techniques.
