Global Standards in the Kampung: Sustainability Standards and their Implications on Indonesian Legal Practice
Authors: Steni Bernadinus
Published: March 2023

Global market standards have become one of the main instruments to bring all parties towards sustainable resource management. In various sectors, standards for production, including agricultural products, appear in the form of certification labels. One of the most discussed standards today is the sustainability standard. Different from other existing standards, the sustainability standard includes items such as human rights, land rights, and deforestation, which conventionally are the domain of public institutions, especially the government. The global market standards are no longer considered as the work of private sectors, instead it is now the result of traditional institution’s roles transformation and legal implementation processes in various arenas. Therefore, these standards will affect the law-making process and law enforcement. However, the idea of global market standard is repudiated by many people as it is considered a way to eliminate state-sovereignty. To elaborate the extent of the standards’ effect, how they are implemented and interplay with the legal systems, this article studies the implementation of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) standard in the Palm Oil Plantation in two villages in Central Kalimantan. The situation in the villages portrays the extent of the global market standard implementation. The author hopes this article provides new insight on the relation between global market standards, state law and other norms living, especially, among parties involved in the palm oil industry and farmers’ empowerment. Furthermore, this article is hoped to serve as constructive lesson of a law-making process built on cross-border cooperation.
Can Affordable Homes be Healthy? Legal Strategy, Socio-Legal Studies and Activism in Indonesia
Authors: Kouwagam Santy
Published: March 2023

This article uses two Constitutional Court decisions in Indonesia to exemplify the importance of analysing legal strategies. These decisions declared a rule barring developers from building and selling tiny houses to be unconstitutional and invalid. The article shows that ‘justice’ in legal procedures still needs further definition, and that judges’ elaboration of decisions and their legal reasoning still needs improvement. The article will first discuss the cases, using Legal Strategy analysis. It will then highlight problems with the commoditisation of houses. Finally, it will argue that the problem of unhealthy and unaffordable housing in Indonesia can be resolved, by bringing together activists and researchers in a joint enterprise and tackling the issue as a collective societal project. In turn, socio-legal scholars need to keep including in-depth analysis of case law as one of the foundations of their work in law and society development.

Authors: Xie Xiaoqing , Bai Yuting , Zhang Xiaoshan
Published: March 2023

Pakistan has been suffering from a power shortage, and the power supply is far from meeting the electricity demand of production and life in the country. The poverty of electric energy is both the cause and the result of Pakistan's poverty. So to make the people of Pakistan get rid of poverty as soon as possible, it is necessary to improve the electric power infrastructure. Since the construction of China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, the degree of China-Pakistan power cooperation has been deepened, and the development of Pakistan's power industry has ushered in a new period of opportunity. In this paper, we will analyze the basis of China-Pakistan power industry cooperation and study why cooperation between China and Pakistan can be realized. It also combines several cases to illustrate the positive impact of China-Pakistan power industry cooperation on poverty reduction in Pakistan. Of course, under domestic and international pressure, China-Pakistan power industry cooperation is facing many new difficulties and challenges. China and Pakistan must face these problems and strengthen dialogue and consultation to utilize better the role of power industry cooperation for Pakistan's economic development and social progress.
The Dynamic Link Between Islamic and Conventional Deposit Rates in a Dual Banking System
Authors: Widarjono Agus , Alam Md. Mahmudul , Rafik Abdur
Published: March 2023

Purpose — This study empirically assesses the extent to which the conventional deposit rate (CDR) affects the Islamic deposit rate (IDR) in Indonesia and Malaysia within the dual banking system.
Design/Methodology/Approach — This study uses non-linear autoregressive distributed lag (NARDL) and panel cointegration. Monthly data are employed, but the time period for the two countries examined is different because of data availability. The study thus covers the period 2009:M1 to 2020:M12 for Indonesia and 2000:M1 to 2020:M12 for Malaysia.
Findings — The findings confirm evidence of the long-run link between IDR and CDR, where the IDRs in Indonesia and Malaysia asymmetrically respond to changes in CDRs. In addition, Indonesia’s IDRs adjust faster in response to the decline in CDRs compared to increases in CDRs. However, Malaysia’s IDRs adapt faster in response to increases in CDRs than their decreases. The panel cointegration results reinforce the asymmetric findings.
Originality/Value — To the best of our knowledge, this paper is the first study to examine the extent to which IDRs asymmetrically respond to CDRs in a dual baking system in Indonesia and Malaysia.
Practical Implications — Islamic banks (IBs) follow CDRs in determining IDRs due to uncompetitive IDRs, implying that IBs suffer from displaced commercial risk. Therefore, IBs may adopt a policy to address liquidity issues through investment risk reserves (IRR) and profit equalization reserves (PER) to reduce the distinctive gap between IDRs and CDRs.

Authors: SATHYANARAYANA Thulasi , SUDHEER Preethı , JACOB Elsa , SABU Merlin Mary
Published: March 2023

Purpose: Ketoprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) which when administered via an oral route displays significant gastro-intestinal side effects and has low skin permeation profile. The objective of the present work is to utilise nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) as carrier system for transdermal delivery of ketoprofen.
Methods: NLCs were prepared via hot homogenisation technique using bees wax, carnauba wax, glycerl monostearate (solid lipids), linseed oil (liquid lipid) and poloxamer188 (surfactant) and optimized using custom design via JMP. The responses evaluated were drug entrapment efficiency, particle size and drug release profile. The experimental design was evaluated for model fit with the assistance of ANOVA. The optimum formulations were characterized for particle size, zeta potential, SEM, DSC, FTIR and also drug content, entrapment efficiency, in- vitro drug release, ex-vivo drug release profile was studied.
Results: The drug entrapment in the range of 34±0.03-95.06±0.01%. The drug release from the formulations over a 24 h study was found to be 80%±0.09 to 95%±0.06. The maximum desirability was found to be 0.91. The optimum formulation showed mean particle size of 425.8nm and a zeta potential of -45mV. SEM results revealed slightly agglomerated particles with uneven surfaces. The ex-vivo skin permeation of NLC optimized patch formulation exhibited a higher flux and permeability coefficient in comparison to the pure drug patch formulation and marketed gel (2.5%w/w) FTIR spectra assured the chemical and physical compatibility.
Conclusion: Transdermal delivery of ketoprofen via NLCs would be a promising approach for improving the skin permeation.

Authors: SARCAN Elif Tugce , ÖZER Yekta
Published: March 2023

Radiopharmaceuticals are radioactive medicines used for imaging and/or therapeutic purposes, consisting of radionuclidic and pharmaceutical parts. While PET and SPECT methods are used for imaging purposes, immuno-PET imaging method has gained popularity, recently. Immuno-PET imaging method, is a combination of PET radionuclides and biomolecules, especially monoclonal antibodies (mAb), proteins, peptides, are frequently used for the imaging of different types of cancer. Radionuclides with long half-lives are generally used in immuno-PET imaging. Long biological half-lives of mAbs is the most important reason to be preferred for immuno-PET imaging. Today, Zirconium-89 (Zr-89), Iodine-124 (I-124) with long half-lives and Copper-64 (Cu-64) and Yttrium-86 (Y-86) radionuclides with relatively long half-lives are preferred in immuno-PET imaging. In this article, studies on Zr-89, Cu-64, I-124 and Y-86-labeled mAbs with long half-life and clinical and preclinical studies were reviewed. Also, comparison of these 4 radionuclides, which are frequently used in the labelling of biomolecules (particularly mAbs) with is included.

Published: March 2023

Dimethoate is an organophosphate insecticide which is used globally in a wide scale in agriculture. It was associated with numerous negative health effects in many studies. Brain is one of the target organs for dimethoate exposure. The aim of present study was to evaluate sub-chronic (60 days) toxicity of dimethoate (7 mg/kg b.w.), investigating its oxidative stress, DNA damage, as well as apoptosis inducing effects, and histopathological changes in brain tissue of rats. We also aimed to analyze protective effects of Laurocerasus officinalis Roem. (cherry laurel) fruit extract. To evaluate oxidative stress, malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, as well as superoxide dismutase (Cu-Zn SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and catalase (CAT) antioxidant enzymes activities were calculated. Experimental results demonstrated that dimethoate treatment increased MDA and depleted Cu-Zn SOD, GPx and CAT enzyme activities, suggesting its potency as an oxidative stress inducer in rat brain tissues. Furthermore, comet and TUNEL assay results showed that dimethoate stimulated DNA damage and apoptosis. Administration of cherry laurel extract protected against dimethoate-induced oxidative stress, DNA damage and apoptosis. Findings of currents study are important in terms of demonstrating the beneficial effects of L. officinalis extract against dimethoate toxicity in brain, considering the sensitivity of this organ to oxidative stress and extensive usage of dimethoate.
Everybody Wants to Be ‘Origines’: Nativism, Neo-pagan Appropriation, and Ecofascism
Authors:   European Center for Populism Studies (ECPS), Hart Heidi
Published: March 2023

This paper explores the tensions that emerge in neo-pagan media and practices, when they appeal not only to far-right enthusiasts but also to those with a left-leaning, environmentalist bent. New Age appropriation of Indigenous cultures and the anti-human temptations of ecofascism further complicate the picture. Ultimately, any group that follows a purity mentality, seeking deep, unadulterated roots in nature, risks nativist thinking and exclusion of those without the privilege of imagining themselves doing heroic deeds in equally imaginary, old-growth woods.

Authors: Wang Zhengrong , Wang Ruyue
Published: March 2023

Based on Joshua Meyrowitz’s media situation theory and Halliday’s functional grammar, this paper takes Li Jiaqi’s live streaming of “55 cost-effective festivals” on May 5, 2022, as its research object to explore the scene’s construction tactics and anchor’s influence on scenes construction. By doing this, it intends to reveal the hidden marketing tactics in live streaming for the sake of helping viewers to be more rational in the process of watching live streaming and providing certain reference values for those who want to enter this industry. This paper aims to address the following two questions: 1) What types of scenes are constructed in the process of live streaming? 2) How the anchor influences the scene construction? The results show that 1) four scene types are found in Li Jiaqi’s live streaming, namely, virtual online consumption scene; artificially presupposed usage scene; real-time interaction scene, and elaborate business scene in which relevant marketing tactics are used wisely; 2) the anchor relies on his personal style, personas, and narrative methods to affect scene construction. Through the analysis of these scenes and the anchor’s influence, this paper finds that by right of grasping viewers’ attention and enhancing their trust and narrowing the distance between each other, Li Jiaqi successfully influences viewers’ purchase motivations, then a sales purpose is achieved.

In March 2020 a Canadian polytechnic moved to pandemic induced online learning and a virtual community of practice (vCOPs) called the Digital Learning Exchange (DigEx) was created to support faculty and staff in this transition. This systematic literature review, a preliminary step in the research of the efficacy of the Digital Learning Exchange, examines the recently published literature that researched vCOPs in higher education over the last five years. Several aspects of the vCOPs studied are identified and compared including: the defining characteristics of the communities, the digital tools used and the rationale for their selection, the positive impacts of the use of digital tools, the barriers created by the application of the technology, and the benefits experienced because of faculty and staff participation in the vCOPs.
ANALYSIS OF FRICTION FORCES IN THE PROCESSOF FORMING MOULDING MASS
Authors: Szewczyk Marek , Szwajka Marek
Published: March 2023

Accelerated wear of the moulds' inner surface used in forming loose masses contributes to its frequentreplacement or regeneration. This wear is indirectly influenced by the high pressure accompanying thecompaction process, but the main cause of accelerated wear is the friction that occurs between the die and thecompacted medium. Knowing that the value of the internal pressure in the moulded medium changes withthe change of the distance from the punch, in order to properly understand the phenomena accompanying thefriction that occurs in the mould during the pressing process, its characteristics must be determined. The paperanalyses the distribution of forming pressure inside the mould during the compaction of high-silica sand. Thedeformation on the die surface was measured using strain gauges, and x-ray tomography was used to visualisethe compaction of high-silica sand during the compaction process. The usefulness of an indirect method formeasuring the friction coefficient based on the analysis of die deformation has been demonstrated.

Published: March 2023

A field experiment was conducted in a split plot design at the research farm of ICAR-Indian Agricultural ResearchInstitute (IARI), New Delhi during summer and kharif seasons of 2015 and 2016 to study the influence of in-situ and ex-situ green manuring and zinc fertilization on nutrient uptake, yield attributes, correlation between yield and yield attributes, and yield of Basmati rice (Oryza sativa L.). Results of this study revealed that the incorporation of Sesbania aculeata green manure @ 33.8 and 35.6 t/ha prior to transplanting of Basmati rice during 2015 and 2016, respectively resulted in higher yield attributes and yield of Basmati rice compared with Vigna umbellata, Leucaena leucocephala and summer fallow during both the years. Foliar application of 0.5% solution of chelated Zn-EDTA at 20, 40, 60 and 80 days after transplanting (DAT) was better than soil application of Zn with regard to yield attributes and yield of Basmati rice and uptake of nutrients by the crop. In general, there was significant and positive correlation of grain yield with yield attributes. The uptake of nutrients by the crop was highest with incorporation of Sesbania aculeata and lowest in summer fallow.

Studies were conducted to standardize the doses of nutrients and growth regulators for improving the fruit quality of lemon [Citrus limon (L.) Burm.f.] cultivar Eureka while maintaining the plant nutrient status. The experiment comprised twelve foliar applications consisting of 6%, 8% and 10% potassium sulphate; 0.5%, 0.75% and 1.0% calcium chloride; 20 ppm, 30 ppm and 40 ppm 2,4-D and 20 ppm, 30 ppm, 40 ppm naphthalene acetic acid. Potassium and calcium content in leaf and fruit of Eureka lemon was influenced by foliar application of nutrients and growth regulators. Among different nutrients and growth regulators, 10% potassium sulphate and 1.0% calcium chloride reduced fruit cracking and improved the fruit quality of Eureka lemon. Maximum potassium content in leaf and fruit was recorded with foliar application of 10% potassium sulphate and maximum calcium content in leaf and fruit was recorded with the foliar sprays of 1.0% calcium chloride. Two time application of 40 ppm NAA resulted in the most effective treatment for minimizing fruit cracking and improving the fruit quality as compared to the other treatments in Eureka lemon.

Effect of Phytophthora nicotianae Breda de Haan pathogen on different rootstock genotypes including sour orange, Troyer citrange and six variants of C. jambhiri Lush, viz. RLC-5, RLC-6, RLC-7, Grambhiri, rough lemon and Italian rough lemon were studied. Of the various rootstocks, Phytophthora inoculation tended to show significantly maximum plant height in Grambhiri (30.45cm). Significantly highest leaf numbers/plant (30.45), fresh root mass (4.13g) and dry root mass (2.47g) were recorded in the infected plants of RLC-5, however, it was statistically similar with sour orange, Italian rough lemon and Troyer citrange for leaf numbers, RLC-6 and Grambhiri for fresh root mass and RLC-6 and Italian rough lemon for stem diameter. RLC-6 had the highest stem diameter (3.62 cm) without having significant difference with RLC-5, RLC-7 and Italian rough lemon. After fungal inoculation, Troyer citrange showed the highest feeder root volume (2.45 cm3) followed by sour orange. These two rootstocks also prove superiority to have the highest photosynthetic rate (A) and transpiration rate (E) over other infected genotypes of citrus rootstocks tested. Except Italian rough lemon and rough lemon, all the rootstocks were found similar statistically in respect of stomatal conductance (gs). Overall,Troyer citrange proved best, and showed the lowest reduction in growth and physiological attributes after fungal inoculation. Being a Phytophthora tolerant rootstock, Troyer citrange was considered the standard rootstock to study the per cent change in disease incidence and feeder root infection in other genotypes, which indicated sour orange to be the next best rootstock. Of the six variants of Italian rough lemon, RLC-5 and RLC-6 tended to show the lower root infection than rest of the variants studied.

The present investigation was conducted to study the effect of different levels of nutrients (NPK) and mulching on various growth and flowering traits of chrysanthemum (Dendranthema grandiflora Tzvelev) cv. Marigold. The field experiment was laid out in randomized block design with five treatments and four replications during 2015- 16. The treatment consisted of different levels of nutrients and mulching, viz. 75% recommended dose of fertilizer(RDF) with mulching, 100% RDF with mulching, 125% RDF with mulching, 150% RDF with mulching and 100% RDF without mulching (control) and RDF was 120:150:100 kg NPK per ha. Results revealed that application of 150% RDF with mulching resulted in increased plant height (51.78 cm), leaf area (88.62 cm2), plant spread (N-S, 55.07 cm and E-W, 52.39 cm), number of laterals/plant (22.83) and number of suckers (11.17) after 120 days after planting (DAP). The same treatment has influenced early bud initiation (73.05 days), 50% flowering (103.60 days),increased flower diameter (5.44 cm), number of sprays per plant (14.40), highest flower yield per plant (658.35 g), and yield per ha (24.38 t), however, increased shelf life (6.55 days) was recorded from 125% RDF with mulching after 120 days after planting.

Land use changes are the land conversions from one type to another that alter the earth surface to satisfy mankind's immediate demand. Land use change detection using satellite imageries has emerged important mean to gather information on regional scale changes. Present study envisaged the spatio-temporal land use land cover changes of Kullu valley of Himachal Pradesh using LANDSAT imageries of 1989 and 2016. The results were verified through the secondary data as well as primary data collected by detailed survey of the Kullu valley (Kullu and Naggar blocks) and drivers for such changes were also identified. The studies were carried out for major land use type, viz. agriculture, orchard, forest and built up in the valley over a period of 27 years. Supervised classification was done using Maximum Likelihood Classification Algorithm through ERDAS Imagine 14 software. The results indicated that during last 27 years, the built up area has increased to the extent of 90.81% followed by orchards (12.39%) and forest (6.26%), whereas area under agriculture was decreased by 56.88%. The primary data revealed that farmers are abandoning the wheat, paddy, maize and barley crops and are pursuing cultivation of vegetable and fruit crops. Increased economic returns and climate change emerged as the probable drivers for the changes in the valley.

To develop genotypes suitable for High Density Planting System (HDPS), six lines and seven testers that possessed compact plant type characteristics were crossed in Line × Tester mating design and the resulting 42 crosses along with their parents were evaluated at three different locations during kharif, 2014 to identify good general and specific combiners for plant type suitable for HDPS with desirable fibre quality. The results revealed significant differences among lines, testers and crosses for most of the traits and preponderance of non-additive gene action. Three lines MC 17-6, MC 16-3, MC 4-3 and two testers NH 630, MC 19-2 exhibited good gca and were found to possess compact plant type characteristics with desirable fibre quality. Among the 42 cross combinations, three crosses MC 9-1 × NH 630, MC 17-6 × MC 19-2 and MC 4-3 × MC 3-2 were identified as best specific combiners. The superior multiple cross derivatives and cross combinations can be used for developing hybrids suitable for high density planting system through heterosis breeding.

Women in India are facing several health-related issues, which ultimately affect the economic output of the nation. The health of Indian women is intrinsically linked to their status in society. Haryana and Uttar Pradesh are some of the few states in India which belong to Indo-Gangetic Plains where an overwhelming number of rural women have always been a part of the active work force in agriculture, forest protection, cattle care, and dairying. Present study is an attempt to know the food consumption and dietary intakes of farm women in rural sector of the UP and Haryana. Collected data were analyzed with the help of suitable statistical techniques. Education, energy consumption and protein consumption have significantly positive relationship with nutritional status of respondents, whereas family size has significantly negative relationship with nutritional status. It was found that the diets were inadequate in energy, protein, iron, Î²-carotene and ascorbic acid contents to the tune of 16.71 and 15.91; 7 and 10.58; 14.33 and 21.63; 25.66 and 34.33; 16.71 and 18.05 percent, respectively in selected villages of Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. These comparisons were made with recommended dietary allowances (ICMR 2010). Iron intake in the daily diet of women in both villages was found to be 19.7 mg and 20.54 mg, which is 34.33 and 31.53 per cent less than recommended level (30 mg). Prevalence of Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) was found to be higher among the farm women of both the states.

Kelas yoga daring dalam berbagai format mengalami peningkatan popularitas setelah pandemi COVID-19 melanda dunia. Tren ini dianggap memudahkan peserta maupun instruktur, namun juga memunculkan kekhawatiran tersendiri terkait kenyamanan dan keselamatan peserta. Mengetahui pilihan yang dianggap lebih memuaskan di mata para peserta kelas yoga (customer): kelas yoga dalam format daring atau luring. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan menggunakan kuesioner daring melalui Google Form yang disebarkan melalui beberapa aplikasi pesan instan kepada 49 orang yang diperoleh dari beberapa komunitas yoga. 7 responden tidak memenuhi kriteria inklusi. Pengolahan data untuk membandingkan kepuasan pelanggan terhadap kelas yoga luring dan daring dilakukan dengan menggunakan perangkat lunak Minitab, dengan menggunakan prosedur paired t-test terhadap jawaban yang diperoleh dari bagian kedua dan bagian ketiga dari kuesioner. Kemudian dilakukan dilakukan uji korelasi dengan metode Pearson Correlation Test untuk mengetahui korelasi antara kepuasan pelanggan dengan aspek-aspek yang diteliti pada kuesioner. Berdasarkan uji komparasi T-test yang dilakukan, diperoleh angka p-value <0,05 untuk seluruh aspek yang dibandingkan, yaitu Outcome Quality (OQ), Relational Quality (RQ), Physical Environment (PE), Safety & Risks (SR), Customer Satisfaction (SAT), Word-of-Mouth (WOM), dan Psychological Commitment (COM). Seluruh uji komparasi memperoleh nilai mean lebih tinggi pada kelas yoga luring daripada kelas yoga daring. Format kelas yoga daring belum mampu menggantikan kelas yoga konvensional yang berformat luring di mata para pesertanya. Hasil dari penelitian ini dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai salah satu pertimbangan untuk melibatkan faktor kepuasan pelanggan dalam menentukan langkah yang dapat diambil untuk meningkatkan kualitas kelas yoga dalam format daring, atau untuk penelitian lanjutan.

Published: March 2023

Health damage from humidifier disinfectants is an unprecedented environmental health disaster. Humidifier disinfectants were used broadly in Korea from 1994 to 2011. Most studies have focused on respiratory problems because of the exposure route and primary respiratory symptoms. This overlooks the previous research results that humidifier disinfectants could move to extrapulmonary organs and induce toxic effects. Thus, the objective of this study was to examine toxic hepatitis cases developed after inhaling humidifier disinfectant. We focused on the indications of toxic hepatitis in two pediatric cases and one female adult case. All patients were exposed to humidifier disinfectants in a residential space. These disinfectants all contained polyhexamethylene guanidine (PHMG). Rapid increases in blood hepatic enzyme levels were seen. Two patients were discharged after treatment. Death occurred in one patient who was diagnosed with fulminant hepatitis of unknown cause. This human case series study supports prior knowledge that hepatotoxicity can occur by inhaling humidifier disinfectant.
