Understanding Perceived Risk: A Case Study of Green Electronic Consumer Products
Authors: Pathak Vivek Kumar , Pathak Anchal
Published: July 2017

Perceived risk is defined as consumers’ perception of the uncertainty and adverse consequences of engaging in a purchase activity. Since the risk is in consumers’ mind, it is perceived and not necessarily real. In this research, we have tried to understand the risk as perceived by consumers while purchasing green electronic products. By uncovering the five dimensions of risks (Financial, Functional, Physical, Psycho-social, and Time Risk) that may be holding consumers back to purchase green electronic products, this research does give some indication on how a company engaged in selling green electronic consumer products (GECPs) should pay special attention in minimizing the consumers’ level of uncertainty regarding the outcome of a purchase decision. The results of this research can be used by manufacturers and marketers of GECPs to negate common sales objections of consumers and to apply appropriate strategies to minimize and manage perceived risk.

Изучены эффекты зарядки диэлектрических мишеней при облучении электронами средних энергий в сканирующем электронном микроскопе. Установлены существенные различия кинетики зарядки для исходных образцов и образцов, предварительно облученных электронами и ионами. Эти различия объясняются радиационно-стимулированным дефектообразованием в образцах Al2O3 (сапфир) и SiO2, имеющим, однако, различную природу. Показана роль модификации структуры поверхности и изменения электрофизических характеристик поверхности, в частности эффекта растекания зарядов. Обнаружены критические значения дозы облучения как ионами Ar+, так и электронами, при которых начинается активное дефектообразование в диэлектрических мишенях, а также критические значения внутренних полей зарядов, вносящих существенный вклад во временные характеристики зарядки Al2O3 и SiO2.

Представлены результаты мёссбауэровских исследований на ядрах 57Fe в мультиферроиках BiFe1-xCrxO3 (x=0.05, 0.10, 0.20) при комнатной температуре. Образцы системы мультиферроиков BiFe1-xCrxO3 (x=0.05, 0.10, 0.20) с ромбоэдрической структурой R3c получены методом твердотельного синтеза при высоких давлениях. Исследовано влияние замещения катионов Fe катионами Cr на пространственную спин-модулированную структуру, а также сверхтонкие электрические и магнитные взаимодействия ядер 57Fe. В замещенных ферритах образуется ангармоническая модулированная спиновая структура циклоидного типа, в которой участвуют атомы железа с различным катионным окружением. Параметр ангармонизма циклоиды линейно увеличивается от m=0.10 при x=0.00 до m=0.78±0.02 при x=0.20. Оценены константы магнитной одноосной анизотропии Ku в зависимости от содержания хрома: при комнатной температуре Ku~0.36·106 erg/cm3 для x=0.0 и увеличивается до Ku~4.22·106 erg/cm3 при x=0.20.

Исследованы пластическое поведение в процессе деформации осадкой и ее влияние на микроструктуру в поликристаллическом сплаве Ni2.19Fe0.04Mn0.77Ga. Методом анализа температурной зависимости удельной намагниченности установлены температуры мартенситного и магнитного фазовых превращений, которые имеют следующие значения: MF=320 K, AS=360 K, TC=380 K. С помощью дифференциально-сканирующей калориметрии показано, что при нагреве образца в интервале температур 930-1070 K в сплаве наблюдается фазовый переход из упорядоченной фазы L21 в разупорядоченную фазу B2. Температура плавления составляет 1426 K. Анализ диаграмм нагружения, построенных при осаждении образца при температурах 773, 873 и 973 K, показывает, что при температуре 773 K поведение кривой напряжение-деформация свойственно холодной деформации. Характер кривых зависимости для температур 873 и 973 K типичен для горячей деформации. После деформации сплава исследована его микроструктура с помощью сканирующей электронной микроскопии в режиме обратно отраженных электронов. Пластическая деформация сплава при исследуемых температурах приводит к фрагментации зеренной структуры в области локализованной деформации. При всех температурах наблюдается рекристаллизованная зеренная структура. Установлено, что после осадки при 973 K наблюдается неравномерная рекристаллизация структуры вследствие интенсивности этого процесса при столь высокой температуре. Наиболее однородной по среднему размеру зерен является микроструктура сплава после пластической деформации при температуре 873 K. Деформационно-термическая обработка сплава, дифференциально-сканирующая калориметрия и исследование микроструктуры материала выполнены при финансовой поддержке РФФИ в рамках научного проекта N 16-32-60159 мол\_а\_дк.

Описаны результаты исследований эффекта повышения коэффициента зернограничной диффузии при рекристаллизации и сверхпластической деформации субмикрокристаллических (СМК) материалов, полученных методами интенсивного пластического деформирования. Показано, что коэффициент зернограничной диффузии СМК-материалов зависит от интенсивности потока решеточных дислокаций, величина которого пропорциональна скорости миграции границ зерен при отжиге СМК-металлов или скорости внутризеренной деформации в условиях сверхпластической деформации СМК-сплавов. Установлено, что при высокой скорости миграции границ зерен или повышенных скоростей сверхпластической деформации интенсивность потока решеточных дислокаций, бомбардирующих границы зерен СМК-материала, превосходит интенсивность их диффузионной аккомодации, что приводит к увеличению коэффициента зернограничной диффузии и снижению энергии активации. Результаты численных расчетов сопоставлены с экспериментальными данными. Показано их хорошее согласие.

Роль электрон-электронного отталкивания в задаче об эпитаксиальном графене на металле: простые оценки
Authors: Давыдов С.Ю.
Published: July 2017

Для однослойного графена, находящегося на поверхности металлической подложки, в рамках расширенной теории Хартри--Фока рассмотрено влияние интра- и интератомного кулоновского отталкивания электронов (U и G соответственно) на его фазовую диаграмму. Приведено общее решение задачи, на основе которого проанализирован ряд частных случаев, допускающих аналитическое рассмотрение: свободный и эпитаксиальный графен без учета и с учетом энергии перехода электрона между соседними атомами графена. Рассмотрены три области фазовой диаграммы: волны спиновой и зарядовой плотностей (ВСП и ВЗП соответственно) и однородное по спину и заряду состояние полуметалла (ПМ). Основное внимание уделено недопированному графену. Показано, что учет взаимодействия с металлической подложкой расширяет область существования ПМ. Для всех рассмотренных случаев, однако, граница между состояниями ВСП и ВЗП описывается уравнением U=zG, где z=3 --- число ближайших соседей в графене. К уширению области ПМ-состояния приводит и допирование графена, причем эффект не зависит от знака свободных носителей, вносимых в эпитаксиальный графен подложкой. Согласно сделанным оценкам, в буферном слое возможно только ПМ-состояние металлического типа, тогда как в квазисвободном эпитаксиальном графене может быть реализовано ВЗП-состояние. Обсуждается влияние температуры на фазовую диаграмму эпитаксиального графена. DOI: 10.21883/FTT.2017.08.44772.02

Public Administration Discourse As Play With A Purpose
Authors: Farmer David John
Published: July 2017

P.A. discourse-conceptualized as a language game governed by rules-could be more productive if we were more conscious of the constraints imposed by our game's rules and if we were more open to the possibility of playing with our socially constructed rules. The paper presents an example of a more productive game, situated in the conceptual space between the postmodern and the modern. The play of irony, characteristic of postmodernity, is explicated in terms of Umberto Eco's, Jean-Francois Lyotard's and Richard Rorty's accounts. A practical P.A. implication lies in the writing and rewriting about institutional practices from decentered perspectives. The paper illustrates how, even in modernity, P.A. discourse has avoided opportunities for useful play that other disciplines have followed. The idea of P.A. discourse as a language game is discussed, and examples of rules used in P.A. theorizing and practice are offered. The paper suggests that modernist P.A. discourse has been modeled too much on the riddling genre understood as a paradigm of discovery. P.A. discourse, it is claimed, should embrace play.

COMPARING THE LEGAL RULES (AHKAM-I SHARIAH) IN THE MALIKI AND SHAFII SCHOOLS WITH THE HANAFI SCHOOL OF THOUGHT
Authors: Gulam Hyder
Published: July 2017

This paper is about the legal rules (ahkam-i shariah) in Maliki and Shafi schools, as compared with the Hanafi school of thought (or madhabs). This paper will define certain terms and briefly provide an overview of these schools of law (noting that there are four main Sunni schools of law). It should be noted that ahkam-i shar’iyaa falls within the generic rubric of fiqh. Fiqh deals with putting the Message of Islam into practice and involves both rulings about acts of worship which derive directly from Allah’s revelation to His Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the book or the Sunnah. When the various schools appeared, they did not compel anyone to follow them should an individual not agree with one of their judgments. This paper will also posit that the differences amongst the schools is but an inherent mercy from God.
METODE PENENTUAN AWAL RAMADHAN DAN HARI RAYA MENURUT ULAMA DAYAH ACEH

Published: July 2017

Time difference in performing Ramadhan fasting and ‘Id prays colours the situations of Acehnese society nowadays. This difference does not only take place at national level only, such as on Islamic organisations and government, but at Acehnese Dayahreligious experts level as well. The aim this study is to seek information on thoughts of Acehnese Dayah religious experts on methods used in confirming the first day of Ramadhan and ‘Id prays, as well as their opinions on their involvement on the ithbat result conducted by the Indonesian Religious Council. In order to find the answer of the study, interviews were conducted to ten representatives of the biggest Dayahs in Aceh: Al-Aziziyyah, Al-Madinatuddiyyah, and Darussalam Labuhan Haji. The data were analysed with hisab-rukyah hadiths, together with matla’s concept with regards with to Islamic fiqh. The result revealed that Acehnese Dayah religious experts groups employed textual understanding in regards to hisab-rukyah hadiths, and they had different opinion in using hisab in order to object witness. In regard to matla’ concept, however, they approved Abu Makhramah’s Eight-Degree matla’ concept; however, they applied it differently. The majority of them had left the matla’ concept and then change tomatla’wilayahal-hukmwith a reason for general benefits; while other groups were still consistent with the matla’ theory; therefore, they often perform Ramadhan and ‘Id prays on different days from the days the government has announced.

Because Life Is Open Book: An Open Internet Family Medicine Clerkship Exam
Authors: Erlich Deborah
Published: July 2017

Introduction: A core principle of family medicine is information mastery, or application of principles of evidence-based medicine in clinical practice. While information mastery teaching and assessment are beginning to permeate postgraduate family medicine training programs, and while exciting literature on new open resource assessment methods is emerging, there are no prior descriptions of examinations that specifically assess medical students’ information mastery competency.
Methods: To test information mastery competency, a novel final exam for the family medicine clerkship was developed, implemented, and evaluated. During the timed exam, the competency-based information mastery assessment (IMA) requires students to look up evidence-based information using web resources to answer case-based questions. Exam feasibility was tested with pilot examinees whose reactions were gauged. Student performance on the traditional closed book knowledge assessment (KA) was compared with performance on the open internet IMA. Exam performance was compared with preceptor ratings of students’ clinical performance. Low performers were further analyzed for preceptors’ ratings of specific student skills in information mastery and self-directed learning.
Results: An open internet IMA testing knowledge application and information mastery skills is not only feasible but can also be educational. Student performance scores on the open internet IMA do not differ from scores on the closed book KA. Students describe many positive features of this open internet IMA. Student performance on the competency-based IMA correlates with clinical ratings by preceptors and with preceptors’ judgment of information mastery skills.
Conclusions: A novel approach to assessment in family medicine clerkships may be used to assess student competency in information mastery. Further research is needed for enhanced exam validation.
Influence of litter size on growth and structure of m. semitendinosus in newborn piglets and slaughter pigs
Authors: Bozickovic Ivana , Vitorovic Dusko , Savic Radomir , Blagojevic Milos , Nesic Ivana
Published: July 2017

Modern meat production has to meet the requirements of profitability, while
meeting the demands of consumers in terms of meat quality at the same time.
Huge scientific work has been done in order to find balance between quantity
and quality of meet. Most authors agree that piglets of lower birth weight
have less muscle fibers within muscle, grow slower, compensating the muscle
growth with increase of muscle fiber diameter and accumulating carcass fat.
In recent years, selection in pig production has been directed towards
increase of piglet number per litter. Since the inverse relation of litter
size and birth weight has been well documented, the purpose of this work was
to investigate the possible effects of litter size as a factor on pig growth
and m. semitendinosus characteristics. Except the statistically significant
difference (p=0,05) in number of primary fibers among piglets from small
litter (15053) and large litter (11347), litter size did not influence birth
weight, or other observed morphological and histological characteristics of
the muscle significantly. Similarly, results of this research show that
litter size as a factor did not affect final weight, morphological
characteristics or fiber type distribution within the muscle in slaughter
pigs.
The impact of public debt on the twin imbalances in Europe: A threshold model
Authors: Suliková Veronika , Tykhonenko Anna
Published: July 2017

Recent empirical research rejecting twin deficits in indebted countries and
current account imbalances adjustment in Europe led to the idea to test the
twin imbalances at different public debt-to-GDP intervals. The analysis
covers 14 EU countries over the time period 1995-2012. A panel data
threshold model with fixed effects estimates two debt-to-GDP thresholds
(40.2% and 96.6%), which determine three debt-to-GDP intervals in the twin
relationship. If public debtto-GDP is less than 40.2%, the model determines
a negative relationship (twin divergence) between budget balance and current
account. Twin deficits (surpluses) are confirmed exclusively if debt-to-GDP
is in the interval between 40.2% and 96.6%. A twin divergence is also
confirmed if public debt-to-GDP is more than 96.6% (e.g., as in Greece and
Italy). The results confirm that increased indebtedness in European
countries contributed to their current account imbalance adjustment.
Organizational models as configurations of structure, culture, leadership, control, and change strategy
Authors: Janicijevic Nebojsa
Published: July 2017

Starting from the axioms of consistency, stability, contingency, and
configuration, research on organizational structure, culture, control,
leadership, and change management strategy has shown that their typical
configurations, or models, can be differentiated according to the same two
criteria: distribution of power and dominant organizational dimension. On the
one hand there are models of structure, culture, control, leadership, and
change management strategy that are based on an unequal, or authoritarian,
distribution of power within organizations, while on the other hand there are
models that are based on democratic, or equal, distribution of power. Also,
on the one hand there are models of structure, culture, control, leadership,
and change strategy that are based on work structure and tasks, while on the
other hand there are models of these organizational components that are based
on social structure, people, and their relationships. Harmonization of
typical configurations of organizational structure, culture, control,
leadership, and change strategy occurs due to the harmonization of the
differentiation criteria. Based on this harmonization, four organizational
models have been identified as typical configurations of structure, culture,
control, leadership, and change strategy: the autocratic, bureaucratic,
innovative, and task models. Each of these models is effective in a different
environmental contingency.
Synthesis and characterization of novel benzimidazole embedded 1,3,5-trisubstituted pyrazolines as antimicrobial agents
Authors: Padhy Gopal , Panda Jagadeesh , Behera Ajaya
Published: July 2017

Efficient syntheses of some new substituted pyrazoline derivatives linked to substituted benzimidazole scaffold were performed by multistep reaction sequences. All the synthesized compounds were characterized using elemental analysis and spectral studies (IR, 1D/2D NMR techniques and mass spectrometry). The synthesized compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activity against selected Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and fungi strain. The compounds with halo substituted phenyl group at C5 of the 1-phenyl pyrazoline ring (15, 16 and 17) showed significant antibacterial activity. Among the screened compounds, 17 showed most potent inhibitory activity (MIC = 64 ?g mL-1) against a bacterial strain. The tested compounds were found to be almost inactive against the fungal strain C. albicans, apart from pyrazoline-1-carbothiomide 21, which was moderately active.

Significance and role of homeostatic model assessment in the evaluation of glucose regulation mechanisms
Authors: Nikolic Stanislava , Curic Nikola , Mijovic Romana , Ilincic Branislava , Benc Damir
Published: July 2017

Introduction. Mathematical formulas, such as homeostatic model assessment
indexes, proved to be useful for the estimation of insulin resistance.
Nevertheless, numerous published results point to a considerable
variability of their reference values. The aim of this study was to use
homeostatic model assessment indexes and evaluate levels of insulin
resistance in nondiabetic patients. Material and Methods. The study
included 486 individuals (mean age 36.84 ? 12.86; 17% of males and 83% of
females). Blood sampling was performed in order to determine glucose and
insulin plasma levels, at the 0th and 120th minute of the oral glucose
tolerance test. The indexes were calculated by the use of homeostatic model
assessment 2 calculator, homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance,
homeostatic model assessment of insulin sensitivity, and homeostatic model
assessment of ?-cells function. The results were statistically analyzed
using a Data Analysis programme. Results. In the examined population, the
average glycemic values of the oral glucose tolerance test were within the
euglycemic scope (Gluc 0 = 4.76 ? 0.45 mmol/L; Gluc 120 = 5.24 ? 1.17
mmol/L), while the average values of calculated homeostatic model
assessment indexes were: insulin resistance - 1.41 ? 0.82; ?-cells function
- 131.54 ? 49.41%, and insulin sensitivity - 91.94 ? 47.32%. According to
study cut-off values, homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance
was less than 2. We found 84 (17.28%) individuals with increased insulin
resistance. Also, we set the lowest reference value for homeostatic model
assessment of insulin sensitivity at less than 50%. With the probability
of 66.67% (x? ? 1SD), basal insulin level under 11.9 mIU/L can be considered
to correspond to physiologic level of insulin resistance. Conclusion. The
follow-up of increased insulin resistance and altered secretion of
pancreatic ?-cells, at early stages of glucose regulation disturbances, may
be useful in assessing dynamics and level of glucose regulation disturbances
and their appropriate treatment.

Effect of sampling and computing times on a hysteresis vector controller applied to renewable distributed generation
Authors: J.F.Sanz  , J. Sallán  , M. A. Alonso  , M. Sanz  , J. L. Villa
Published: July 2017

Nowadays the use of renewable energies is increasing at a high rate, but there are limitations related to the low quality of the power sent to the utility. That is the reason why new control systems have been developed.
Due to the difficulty of having adequate equipment to implement the different control systems [1] they have been simulated, but taking into account the data acquisition times.
The paper considers the delay time in the switching status due to the data sampling and calculation of the parameters required for the control. The calculations used to obtain the phasors required to calculate the optimal switching and the switching time are shown.
In order to obtain the results, the starting point is a predictive vector control, described in [2], where the calculation times have been applied for sampling frequencies of 100kHz and 200kHz, comparing the results with the case of having a infinite sampling frequency.

Published: July 2017

This  article  proposes  a  method  to  optimize  the  design of a small fixed-voltage wind energy conversion system (WECS).  The  system  is  composed  of  commercially  available  elements which are: a small horizontal axe wind turbine, a one-stage  gearbox,  a  permanent  magnet  synchronous  generator,  a  diode  bridge  and  a  battery  bank.  As  there  are  no  controlled  devices on the system, the design must be carefully done to find the  configuration  that  maximizes  both,  the  system  utilization  and  the  system’s  output  power.  Using  the  mechanical  and  the  electrical    power    equations,    an    optimization    problem    is    proposed.   This   problem   is   aimed   to   find   the   optimal   combination  of  the  gearbox  ratio  and  the  battery  voltage  in  order  to  extract  the  maximum  amount  of  energy  form  the  WECS.   The   mechanical   power   is   modelled   using   a   new   proposed   power   coefficient   function   approximation.   The   constrained    optimization    problem    is    then    solved    by    a    MATHEMATICA©  genetic  algorithm  based  routine.  Results  are  shown and discussed.

Photovoltaic systems have been increasingly used in the generation of electrical energy, either as a means of providing electricity in areas where there is no grid connection (stand alone systems), or by providing electricity to the grid (grid connected systems). In a deregulated energy market, the cost of energy produced from fossil fuels is rising and the photovoltaic energy becomes a promising alternative source. Yet it still suffers from problems that need to be resolved in order to be widely accepted as an equivalent alternative to fossil fuels. Firstly the more direct problem of efficiency and cost needs to be overcome and secondly the indirect problem of the quality of power provided by photovoltaic technology has to be addressed. In this work 14 different grid connected PV systems have been considered and power quality measurements have been taken. Results for low and average irradiance cases are presented and analyzed in order to determine how power quality quantities are affected by changes in solar irradiance.

Authors: Bert Renders  , Koen De Gusseme  , Lieven Degroote  , Bart Meersman  , Lieven Vandevelde
Published: July 2017

Voltage dips have been proven to be one of themost important aspects of power quality. In order to avoid ma-jor economical damage, grid-connected equipment should be de-signed with a good voltage dip immunity. This holds as well forconverter-connected loads as for converter-connected distributedgeneration (DG) units. This paper presents a control strategy forgrid-connected DG converters yielding an improved voltage dipride-through capability. Due to the implementation of the pro-posed control strategy, shutdown of DG units due to voltage dipsis avoided, resulting in a stronger utility grid. Experimental testson a single-phase full-bridge bidirectional converter are carriedout and validate the aforementioned postulations.

Authors: A. López Agüera  , I. Fernández Otero  , R. Martínez Farreres  , I. Rodríguez Cabo
Published: July 2017

The economic balance of large area photovoltaic generators suffer from even small losses on efficiency. The present work studies the causes of losses of power causes by the solar panels: The rigor of the manufacturer fullfiling the generators specifications, the dispersion on the electric characteristics of the generators associated either in series or in parallel, and not less important, the effect of the working temperature on the effective power of the generator. Modules quality, uniformity and time stability have been tested. The final results give rise to some recommendations to optimize the efficiency of large association of generators. The validity of those recommendations is discussed with reference to a sample of 10 5 experimental data collected in the grid of 400 PV from the Pierre Auger Project.

Published: July 2017

At the present time the generation expansion planning (GEP) has become a problem very difficult to solve for multiple reasons: many objectives, high uncertainties, very great planning horizon, etc. Its resolution by means of the exact traditional techniques, in numerous occasions, is not viable by the excessive time that is needed. For that reason, technical modern that allow the resolution in smaller time and with smaller accuracy in the solution are applied. Most of the approximate techniques are included inside a wider concept that is denominated Artificial Intelligence. In this article the more promising techniques of IA are studied indicating their applications in the PEG as well as their advantages and disadvantages

On the performance of commercial supercapacitors as storage devices for renewable electrical energy sources
Authors: V.V.N. Obreja
Published: July 2017

Supercapacitor cells and modules with an electrical capacitance reaching thousands of Farads become attractive components for energy storage, in regenerative energy based power electrical systems. The characteristics of high energy supercapacitor cells and modules produced at this time by leading manufacturers in the field are presented for organic and aqueous electrolyte technology. A stored specific energy as high as 5-6 Wh/kg is exhibited by commercial supercapacitor cells and modules, a value lower than the corresponding one for lead –acid batteries (30 -35 Wh/kg). The specific power of supercapacitors reaching 3-5 kW/kg is higher than that of batteries (limited to 1kW/kg) and this feature is required in applications. The advantages and disadvantages of supercapacitors in comparison with batteries, a traditional way of electrical energy storage are discussed.
BANTUAN HUKUM BAGI MASYARAKAT TIDAK MAMPU DALAM PERSPEKTIF TEORI KEADILAN BERMARTABAT

Abstrak

Bantuan hukum adalah salah satu upaya mengisi hak asasi manusia terutama bagi lapisan termiskin masyarakat. Konstitusi menjamin hak setiap warga negara mendapat perlakuan yang sama di muka hukum, termasuk hak untuk mengakses keadilan melalui pemberian bantuan hukum. Orang kaya dan mempunyai kekuasaan, dengan mudah mengakses dan mendapatkan “keadilan”, melalui tangan-tangan advokat yang disewanya. Tidak demikian halnya kelompok masyarakat miskin, mereka tidak mempunyai kemampuan untuk memahami hukum  dan tidak mampu untuk membayar advokat,  hal demikian menyebabkan tidak ada perlakuan yang sama di muka hukum untuk mengakses keadilan.

Abstract
 Legal aid is an effort to fulfill the human rights, especially of the poorest groups of the society. The Constitution guarantees the right of every citizen to equal treatment before the law, including the right to access justice through legal aid. The haves and those having power would easily access and obtain justice, through the hands of advocates employed. That is not the case with the poor who do not have sufficient knowledge of the law and can not afford to pay for lawyers. This situation creates an unequal treatment before the law to access justice.
FILSAFAT HUKUM DALAM PUTUSAN PENGADILAN/HAKIM
Authors: Hutajulu Marihot Janpieter
Published: July 2017

Abstrak
Putusan pengadilan merupakan produk hukum yang dihasilkan oleh hakim berdasarkan suatu pertimbangan mendalam atas fakta-fakta hukum yang diajukan kepadanya untuk diputuskan berdasarkan hukum dan keadilan. Oleh karena itu, hakim dalam memutuskan perkara yang diperiksanya, selain harus mendasarkan diri kepada hukum positif, ia juga perlu menggali rasa keadilan yang berkembang di dalam masyarakat. Tulisan ini mencoba untuk menganalisis pengaruh filsafat hukum khususnya yang menyangkut masalah keadilan dalam putusan hakim. Hal ini disebabkan putusan hakim selalu dipandang sebagai sebuah upaya menghadirkan hukum yang kontekstual bagi para pencari keadilan. Hakim oleh karenanya harus dapat menemukan hukum yang bersandar kepada nilainilai yang hidup di dalam masyarakat, khususnya konteks sosial dari perkara sedang yang diperiksanya. Untuk menemukan hukum seperti itu, hakim harus berani keluar dari paradigma legal-positivistik dalam melakukan penafsiran hukum, terutama dalam isi pertimbangan hukum putusannya.

 

Abstract
The court ruling is a legal product that is generated by a judge based on a deep consideration of the legal facts submitted to him/her to be decided based on law and justice. Therefore, in addition to relying on positive law, in deciding cases it is also necessary for the judge to discover the developing sense of justice in the society. This paper attempts to analyze the influence of the philosophy of law, especially concerning the issue of justice in the judge's decision. This is relevant due to the assumption that a judge's decision is an effort to bring the law in context for those seeking justice. The judge must therefore be able to find the law based on the living values of the society, especially in the light of the social context of the particular case being examined. To find such law, the judge had to venture out of the legal-positivistic paradigm on its interpretation of law, particularly in the content of the legal consideration of his/her ruling.

Authors: Özsayın Damla
Published: July 2017

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the amount of cow milk production and its price in Turkey in the period between 1985-2015.The Koyck model that is one of the distributed lag models was used to analyse of these data. The production of cow milk was considered as dependent variable and the price series consisting of cow milk prices and lagged price series are considered as explanatory variable in the model. According to the results of Koyck model, it was determined that the production of cow milk was affected by the prices of maximum one year retrospectively and the time required to dramatically affect to production of cow milk of the change taken place in prices of cow milk was 2.9 years. Furthermore, the increase of 1 TL in price of cow milk decreases the production of cow milk by 183372.4 tonnes. On the other hand, the increase of 1 TL in prices in the previous period decreases the production of cow milk by 137345.9 tonnes. Based on these data, it can be said that the price of cow milk composed in the free market conditions is rather efficient in determination to production amount. In conclusion, economic measures such as making of production planning, constituting of efficient marketing opportunities, price policies and giving a place to stable production can be taken against to fluctutations in the price increases.
PERAN DAN FUNGSI DPD RI DALAM RANGKA MENUJU SISTEM BIKAMERAL YANG EFEKTIF MELALUI AMANDEMEN UUD 1945 KE-5
Authors: Widodo Wahyu
Published: July 2017

An important aspect in the process of Indonesia's transition to democracy is in the field of constitutional reforms set out in the 1945 Constitution amendment One of the important change is in the form of a new state agency called the Regional Representative Council (DPD). Since the amendment, Indonesian parliamentary system has changed from a system of unicameral to a bicameral system. Manifestations of this institution has awakened hope that the local community problems of the region can be fought at the national level. However, if the note functions, powers and duties set out in Article 22 D the 1945 Constitution and Act 22 of 2003 concerning the composition and position of the MPR, Parliament, DPD and local parliament, then raised a lot of assumptions that are functions of the Regional Representative Council can represent regional interests. DPD is not only serves as a counseling board autonomy, does not serve as the country's legislature adopts a bicameral. Amendments to the Constitution of 1945 is the main road to strengthen the position of this institution as the legislature to assist the Parliament.
