OPTIMALISASI KEWENANGAN BADAN PENGAWAS PEMILU (BAWASLU) \ DALAM PENEGAKAN PELANGGARAN ADMINISTRASI SECARA TERSTRUKTUR, SISTEMATIS DAN MASSIF DALAM PEMILIHAN KEPALA DAERAH (PILKADA)
Authors: Kartabrata Absar
Published: July 2022

Badan Pengawas Pemilihan Umum (Bawaslu) dalam penegakan pelanggaran Pemilihan Kepala Daerah diberikan kewenangan oleh Peraturan Perundang-undangan untuk menangani pelanggaran administrasi yang terjadi secara Terstruktur, Sistematis dan Massif. Dalam pelaksanannya (law in action) kewenangan tersebut dimiliki pula oleh Mahkamah Konstitusi (MK) dalam Penyelesaian Sengketa Perselisihan Hasil Pemilihan (PHP). Dalam mewujudkan kepastian hukum, seyogianyalah hal tersebut diperjelas dan dipertegas terkait pelaksanaan kewenangan yang dimiliki kedua lembaga dimaksud. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode pendekatan yuridis normative, yang didukung data primair melalui pendekatan kasus (case approach). Secara empiric menunjukan adanya kesamaan tafsir atas pelanggaran Pemilihan Kepala Daerah (PILKADA) yang terjadi secara Terstruktur Sitematis Masif (TSM), terbukti dengan adanya putusan Bawaslu dan putusan MK yang terbagi menjadi 2 (dua) yaitu kumulatif dan alternatif dimana keduanya menghasilkan sanksi yang berat antara lain Pembatalan Pasangan Calon (diskualikasi) dan Pembatalan Hasil PILKADA. Merujuk kepada kondisi tersebut pelaksanaan kewenangan Bawaslu dalam penanganan pelanggaran administrasi yang terjadi secara TSM tentunya harus menjamin kepastian hukum.

The community in the whole world recognizes that the position of youth is very strategic. From the youth, born a group that is quantitatively small, but qualitatively very calculated. The character of youth is unique, energetic, idealistic, critical, and academic. In some event, youth became a driving force, even a battering ram, so that the history of the world, including the history of Indonesia, recorded the events of changes in civilization as a result of its terrible social movements. They are students. Therefore, in facing the General Election 2024, which is predicted to be more difcult and more complicated than the previous election, the government and election organizers should optimally involve the students. However, looking at their academic characteristics, students are more appropriate to be guardians for the realization of Direct, General, Free, Confidential (LUBER) and Honest and Fair (JURDIL) principles with the Election Supervisory Agency (BAWASLU), in order to combat political corruption and encourage double-minded democracy.
PARTISIPASI DAN REPRESENTASI PEREMPUAN DALAM PENYELENGGARAAN PEMILU

Realizing equal access for women and men to be actively involved in politics and the political decision making process still requires special attention from stakeholders in various countries in the world. One of the crucial problems is that there is still an imbalance in the composition of men and women in representative institutions. So far, the focus of women's rights in politics has always looked at the representation of women as candidates for legislative, executive, and even management members in political parties and very rarely discusses women's representation as election organizers such as in the General Election Commission (KPU), Election Supervisory Agency (BAWASLU), as well as the Election Organizing Ethics Council (DKPP). Women's political rights are essentially not only about the presence of women in political parties and parliaments but in the whole process of organizing elections, including election monitoring. Professional election management institutions are one of the determinants of democratic elections. The opening of access and opportunities for women to become members of the election administration is one of the indicators used to determine whether the election management body has democratically.

Authors: Marzuki H.M. Wasikin
Published: July 2022

The incompatibility of the number of election supervisory personnel with a heavy workload is a human resource (HR) problem that must be addressed in the run-up to the 2024 General Elections and Simultaneous Elections. In addition, the room for evaluating the institutional governance of election organizers through the revision of the Election Law has been closed. This issue is certainly a challenge that Bawaslu must address by improving the quality of human resources and expanding the role of the community so that they are more actively participating in election supervision to create an honest, fair, and quality electoral process. Participatory supervision can be a solution to Bawaslu's problems related to the incompatibility of human resources in facing the 2024 General Elections and Simultaneous Elections.

Pandeminin Tüketici Kredileri ile Kredi Kartı Kullanımına Etkisi: Türkiye Örneği (2017-2021) ve Kurumsal İktisat Bakış Açısıyla Bir Değerlendirme
Authors: ARSLAN İbrahim , METİN Tuğçe
Published: July 2022

Bireyin satın almak istediği mal veya hizmeti bankadan borçlanma yoluyla edinmesini sağlayan tüketici kredisi uygulaması dünyada 1928, Türkiye’de 1988 yılından beri kullanılmakta olup kredi kartları ise 1950’li yıllardan bu yana tüketiciler tarafından aktif kullanılmaktadır. Tüketici kredisi de kredi kartı da özünde, nakit ihtiyacını kendi imkanları ile gideremeyen bireye ekonomik anlamda hareket kabiliyeti kazandırmaktadır. Bu çalışmada Mart 2020 tarihinde ilan edilen pandeminin Türkiye’de tüketici kredileri ve kredi kartı tutarları üzerindeki etkisi incelenmiştir. Çalışma, pandeminin tüketici kredisi ve kredi kartı tutarlarının istatistiki olarak anlamlı ölçüde arttırdığı hipotezlerine dayanmaktadır. BDDK’nın 2017 – 2021 kredi ve kredi kartı tutarları dikkate alınarak, SPSS 26.0 paket programı Independent T-Test aracılığı ile gerçekleştirilen analizler sonucunda, çalışmanın hipotezleri doğrulanmıştır. Pandemi sonrası tüketici kredisi tutarları ile kredi kartı tutarları, pandemi öncesine kıyasla istatistiki açıdan anlamlı farklılık göstermiştir. Yapılan analizler Kurumsal İktisat bakış açısıyla değerlendirilmeye çalışılmıştır. Pandemi döneminde artan kredi ve kredi kartı tutarlarının, tüketiciler tarafından vade tarihlerinde ödenememesi halinde, bankacılık sektörünün kredi daralması yaşayabileceği, artı değer yaratmayan bireysel borçlanmanın ise uzun vadede ekonomik göstergeleri olumsuz etkileyeceği, konjonktürel bir dalgalanma yaşanabileceği yorumu getirilmiştir.
Optimal Control for a Degenerate Population Model in Divergence Form With Incomplete Data
Authors: Sana Mohamed A. , Sawadogo Somdouda , Tao Sadou
Published: July 2022

In this paper, we study the control of a degenerate population dynamics system in divergence form with unknown information on the boundary. We use the no-regret control concept of J. L. Lions treated in (Lions, 1992) to investigate the problem. At first, we define notions of no-regret control.  Using an appropriate Hilbert space, we show that the no-regret control is the limit near the origin of a series of low-regret controls defined by a quadratic perturbation previously used by (Nakoulima, Omrane, & Velin, 2000) corresponding to the disturbed system and for which we give a singular optimality system.
Influence of Wood Surface Preparation on Roughness, Wettability and Coating Adhesion of Unmodified and Thermally Modified Wood
Authors: Miklečić Josip , Lončarić Andrea , Veseličić Nikolina , Jirouš-Rajković Vlatka
Published: July 2022

In this research, the influence of face milling, sanding and UV irradiation of the hornbeam and ash wood sample on the wetting and adhesion strength of solvent-based and water-borne coating was studied. The adhesion of coatings to substrates is one of the most important parameters for finishing quality and service life of wood coatings, while wetting properties are usually used to assess the quality of surfacing process and could also provide important information on the adhesion ability of coatings. Surface roughness, contact angle of coatings and water as well as adhesion strength of coatings were tested on differently prepared (face milled, sanded and UV irradiated) samples of unmodified and thermally modified ash and hornbeam wood. Surface roughness was measured with stylus-type profilometer over the traverse of 12.5 mm and with a cut-off value of 2.5. Contact angle was measured using the sessile drop method 2 s, 10 s and 30 s after the application of the liquid drop on the sample surface, and adhesion strength was measured according to ASTM D4541. Results showed that sanding of hornbeam and ash wood resulted in the least rough surface compared to the face milled and UV irradiated surface. Contact angles of the water-borne coating were on average three times higher than the contact angles of the solvent-based coating. Sanding the surface of hornbeam and ash samples increased the adhesive strength in relation to the face milled surface, while UV irradiation of the sanded surface decreased the adhesive strength of most samples coated with solvent-based coating.

De rol van het strafrecht in en rondom het voetbal. Een inventarisatie met aandacht voor onrechtmatigheid en de ultimum remedium-gedachte

Het strafrecht staat erom bekend dat het met een zekere terughoudendheid moet worden toegepast. Alleen indien inzet van andere middelen niet effectief is, is het aangewezen om het strafrecht in te zetten tegen ongeoorloofd gedrag. Tegelijkertijd klinkt de roep om inzet van het strafrecht als doelmatig en afschrikwekkend middel steeds luider, zo ook in het kader van aan voetbal gerelateerde feiten. Deze noties doen de vraag rijzen wat de precieze rol van het strafrecht in en rondom het voetbal is (of moet zijn). Die vraag wordt beantwoord met aandacht voor twee uitgangspunten in het strafrecht: onrechtmatigheid en de ultimum remedium-gedachte.

Authors: Arianto Eko , Bernardinus Sri Widodo
Published: July 2022

Terapi infrared adalah terapi yang banyak dilakukan dengan memanfaatkan efek panas yang ditimbulkan pada tubuh manusia terutama pada permukaan kulit yang terpapar secara langsung. Ada beberapa jenid infrared tetapi yang paling umum digunakan untuk terapi adalah far-infrared (FIR). Dosis pemberian terapi infrared bervariatif dengan rentang 10-45 menit dan dilakukan beberapa kali dalam seminggu. Di Indonesia kebanyakan terapi infrared menggunakan lampu infrared portable. Pada terapi infrared ada beberapa hal yang harus dilakukan seperti menjaga jarak lampu infrared terdahap tubuh pasien, menjaga waktu terapi, dan mengarahkan ke lokasi yang butuh di terapi. Ada tiga parameter yang harus selalu di monitor dan di kendalikan: jarak, waktu, dan posisi. Untuk mengatur ketiga parameter tersebut dengan durasi terapi yang lumayan lama maka terapi infrared cukup melelahkan terapis atau orang yang membantu terapi infrared dengan lampu infrared. Dengan masalah tersebut, sebuah sistem terapi infrared otomatis akan sangat membantu. Rancang bangun sistem terapi infrared otomatis bisa membantu menyelesaikan masalah yang ada seperti mampu mengendalikan timer, jarak, dan posisi terapi infrared. Sistem terapi infrared yang sudah berhasil dibuat dapat bekerja dengan baik. Sensor jarak bekerja dengan akurat, mekanisme gerak dan timer juga bekerja dengan baik.

Published: July 2022

L’educació STEM es presenta sovint com una proposta innovadora i excitant que, tant al servei de l’augment de vocacions com orientada a millorar l’alfabetització de la població en aquest àmbit, ha arribat amb força al panorama educatiu també del nostre país. Quan ens preguntem, però, com fer-ho a les aules, veiem que sovint les propostes d’educació STEM es vinculen de forma reduccionista a certes metodologies concretes (com per exemple l’aprenentatge basat en projectes) o a certes tecnologies (com ara les tecnologies programables). En fer-ho, s’està obviant que qualsevol perspectiva, metodologia o tecnologia educativa que serveixi per a millorar tant les competències de l’àmbit científic-tecnològic de l’alumnat com el seu posicionament respecte el mateix serà adient, i que en educació STEM, com en totes les propostes educatives, és important la tria de què ensenyar i com fer-ho al servei de per a què ho volem fer.

Children’s experience of distance learning – the everyday life of first graders
Authors: Bonar Jolanta , Zbróg Zuzanna
Published: July 2022

The purpose of this paper is to present the everyday school life of younger pupils in pandemic times. The rationale behind the study (conducted from the child’s perspective) lies in the conviction that minors are active actors who understand and interpret the social reality around them and, therefore, are the most reliable source of information (for adults) on the meaning of everyday situations for them (Corsaro, 2005). The research material was collected through a focus group interview with first grade pupils from selected primary schools in Poland. This helped the authors understand children’s experience of distance learning. Analysis of the collected material reveals the many and diverse experiences children have regarding e-learning. The study makes it possible to identify the main categories impacting their daily school-related activities, the tangible environment that constitutes the physical space behind these activities, and the accompanying emotions.
Cooperation between Parents of "demoralized sons" and educational institutions. A symbolic interactionist perspective
Authors: Cieślikowska-Ryczko Angelika
Published: July 2022

The subject of the article is part of a study on the problem of the penitentiary crisis of families. The study of biographical experiences of mothers and fathers of prisoners allowed to trace the trajectory of parenthood in relation to crime and demoralization of the (adult)child. Parents reconstructed the stages of escalating difficulties, described their experiences of time in prison isolation, and most importantly, presented the process of "reaching" the moment of incarceration of their adult sons. One of the elements of these reconstructions is a specific (self)diagnosis made by the parents, concerning the sources of criminal behavior and the dynamics of the accumulation of educational problems resulting in imprisonment. Respondents revealed a variety of remedial strategies aimed at stopping their children's criminal careers. In this paper I focused on one selected area of these interactions, i.e. ways of creating and organizing cooperation between parents and educational institutions. In the main part of the study, I discussed three key directions of activities revealed by parents. The characteristics of these areas allow us to answer the question - what are the characteristics of the interaction between parents and teachers in the situation of the threat of demoralization of a teenager, and what preventive and remedial measures against problematic students are taken by schools from the perspective of parents? I have framed the presented observations within the theoretical and methodological framework of the Symbolic Interactionism perspective.
Decentralizing the Centralized Energy System Using CCAM Model: Key to Greener Energy Mix and Sustainability in Nigeria
Authors:   Department of Science Laboratory Technology, Port Harcourt Polytechnic, Rivers State, Nigeria, Asime Orudukobipi
Published: July 2022

Nigeria energy system is strongly centralised and unsustainable, associated with waste of huge amount of primary energy input, full of insecurity and climatic change threat and crises. To averts these energy crises, the entire energy requires an urgent energy revolution and this could be achieved by decentralising the country strongly centralised energy using an appropriate model whose energy mix is more of renewable energy. This paper presents how the Community Choice Aggregation Model (CCAM) can decentralise the entire energy system of Nigeria and ensure sustainability. The sustainability criteria of Gibson and Jaccard were used to evaluate the sustainability capacity of CCAM in line with existing Nigeria energy policies. The criteria include potential risks to the environment and humanity, the scale, adaptive capacity and resilience of an energy system, avoided path dependency, intra and intergenerational equity, participatory and inclusive governance, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. The results from the evaluations have proven CCAM with partnership/joint ownership structure a veritable energy decentralization tool for ensuring greener energy mix and sustainability in Nigeria and the globe. The essentials of this paper can be employed for future energy planning and policy implementation

This chapter discusses about the spectral and theoretical aspects of selected benzimidazole and 2-phenyl substituted benzimidazole molecules. The synthesis of these benzimidazoles was reported in many methods by the reaction between o-phenylenediamine with formic acid, aromatic aldehydes and N-benzylbezene-1,2-diamine in presence of oxidant tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP). The spectral analysis of these molecules mainly such as UV-visible, fluorescence in solvents will be included in this chapter and discussed about the absorption, fluorescence maximum, conjugation, transition. Further the optimized structure of these molecules will be given using Gaussian 09 W (DFT 6-31G method). And also will be discussed about structural parameters, highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) – lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy energy values, natural bond orbital (NBO), molecular electrostatic potential map (ESP). Many benzimidazole molecules having tautomers in the structure will be explained with the help of theoretical parameters to describe the structural properties.

This study was performed to evaluate the change in seasonal abundance and distribution of individual mosquito vectors (Culex, Anopheles, and Aedes) in relation to the climatic factors in Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia, for the study period of 2014. The association between mosquito abundance and environmental parameters was investigated using bivariate and multivariate analysis. The study showed the range of temperature and relative humidity required for individual mosquito larvae abundance varies for Culex, Anopheles, and Aedes. However, no variation was observed in the range of temperature and relative humidity required for the abundance of adult Culex and Anopheles. The results revealed a negative relationship between mosquito larval/adult abundance and temperature (Total number of larva/adult is 671/11 in July, While it is 2462/221 in January). There is a link between relative humidity and rainfall, as the three climatic factors together were responsible for 33.1% (R2 = 0.331), 54.6% (R2 = 0.546), and 86.6% (R2 = 0.866) of the variance on Culex, Anopheles, and Aedes larvae, respectively. The effects of the three climatic parameters of temperature, relative humidity, and rainfall on mosquito larval and adult abundance were discussed. In addition, influences of other environmental factors on larval/adult mosquito distribution and abundance were also explained.

Many complex mixtures usually constitute hundreds or even thousands of individual components of interest. Such mixtures are much too complicated to be separated for analytical duties in a reasonable period of time using only a single-dimensional chromatographic method. However, if a complex mixture is separated by an initial dimension using multi-dimensional liquid chromatography, a simpler portion of that separation is collected and goes to the second dimension. Each of these fractions will be analyzed separately, allowing exceedingly complex mixtures to be resolved in a short period of time. This chapter explains the fundamental principles, theoretical discussions as well as various applications with typical examples of multi-dimensional liquid chromatography in different fields.

Published: July 2022

The study acknowledged that the adoption of digitised technologies as tools for enhancing reliability in the conduct of elections is becoming more widely embraced globally and, therefore, sought to examine Nigeria’s experience in that context. The study noted that with the conduct of elections in the current age becoming sophisticated, as a result of the dynamics of technological advancements, the use of manual arrangements of elections is being reduced to the barest minimum. Consequently, this study sought to pay attention to the current status, challenges and evolving trends, and associated issues of election management, and the role of the government in Nigeria, through its designated institution, with a view to making projections for future considerations in election conduct and management. The study adopted a literature-based approach to underpin the context and consequently provided analytical reviews of some notable and actual occurrences that characterised the actual conduct of elections in recent past in the country. The study noted the significance of an enabling legislation, as enacted by the government, to govern election management in the country and concluded by suggesting measures considered relevant to maintain and support a digitised electoral process in Nigeria, including ensuring relatively reliable and stable power supply and the acquisition and effective deployment of relevant ICT-enabled electoral devices, among other resources.

The aim of this study was to better understand the role of hostile attribution bias (HAB) in the relationship between cluster B personality traits and reactive aggression. Sixty-three French-speaking adults were asked to complete online questionnaires assessing their personality traits, hostile attribution bias, and aggressive behaviors. While brain activity was recorded, they were asked to read scenarios involving daily life interactions and to imagine why the characters (whose intentions were ambiguous) behaved in a provocative manner toward them. Following each scenario, we analyzed the N400 component of the event-related brain potential associated with the presentation of unexpected hostile or nonhostile intentions after each scenario. Results showed a stronger N400 amplitude during the presentation of unexpected nonhostile intentions (hostile expectancy violations) in the centro-parietal regions. There was no mediating effect of hostile or nonhostile expectancy violation in the relationship between cluster B personality characteristics and reactive aggression. Further studies are needed to better understand the psychological processes underlying aggressive behaviors in cluster B personality disorders.
Early Childhood Education Pedagogical Transformation in Tanzania: Innovations, Challenges and Prospects for Marginalised Children
Authors: Shukia Richard , Marobo Stansilaus
Published: July 2022

Tanzania recognises that investing in early childhood education and care has the potential to offer immense opportunity for all children, regardless of social-economic background, to develop the cognitive, social and emotional skills needed for their development, well-being and success in later life. These capabilities are shaped by high-quality range of developmentally appropriate and contextually relevant pedagogical practices. This chapter tracks pedagogical transformations that have taken place over time, emerging innovative pedagogical approaches and their prospects in marginalised pre-primary education settings in Tanzania. The chapter aims to contribute to the on-going debate about what pedagogical practice works in various early childhood education settings. It is anticipated that the discussion might broaden our understanding of pedagogical practices from marginalised communities. The chapter is organised into six sections. The first section introduces the chapter. The second section presents an overview of the education structure and early childhood education in Tanzania. The third section tracks pedagogical transformations over a historical period. The fourth section presents the new development innovations that have been made in early childhood education in recent times. The fifth section highlights early childhood education pedagogical challenges. The last section reflects on pedagogical prospects for children in marginalised localities.

Development of climate-resilient genotypes with high agronomic value through conventional breeding consumes longer time duration. Speed breeding strategy involves rapid generation advancement that results in faster release of superior varieties. In this approach, the experimental crop is grown in a controlled environment (growth chambers) with manipulation provisions for temperature, photoperiod, light intensity, and moisture. The generation of the crop cycle can be hastened by inducing changes in the physiological process such as photosynthesis rate, flowering initiation, and duration. Speed breeding eases multiple trait improvement in a shorter span by integration of high-throughput phenotyping techniques with genotype platforms. The crop breeding cycle is also shortened by the implementation of selection methods such as single-seed descent, single plant selection, and marker-assisted selection.
Synergy between the Church and Government in Community Development: A Sociocultural Entrepreneurship Approach
Authors: Adi Suwarto
Published: July 2022

This paper aims at describing the church strategies for doing community development. As a religious institution, when doing development community, the church often confronts questions about conversion or evangelism. By implementing the entrepreneurial approach, community development programmes allow for synergy between the church and government to support sustainable development. Building on field work conducted in in three areas of Indonesia: North Sumatera (2008), Sumba in Eastern Indonesia (2010) and Central Java (2015), this paper argues that the church should seek a synergetic, equal partnership with the government in implementing community development projects. In the process it is essential for the church to practice and advocate for good governance. Engaged in such a process, the church has an opportunity to witness through community development as a manifestation of social diaconia. Oriented to public service, social diaconia seeks the common good, bona ecclesiae, where wealth is to be managed and grows to help the poor.
Perspective Chapter: Application of Environmental Epidemiology for Exposure and Health Risk Assessment
Authors: Desye Belay
Published: July 2022

Environmental epidemiology seeks to understand how various external risk factors may cause or protect against disease, illness, injuries, abnormalities, or death. Environmental epidemiology evidences suggested that there is the links between COVID-19 pandemic and environmental exposures. Environmental epidemiology provide information that can contribute to rational decision-making and resource allocation by providing quantitative estimates of risks. The environmental health issues are increasing attention and emerging globally, thus raising the environmental epidemiology concept as preventive medicine. Exposure can be assessed by using direct and indirect method approaches. Exposure assessment is important for the identification, evaluation, and control of health risks in the workplace and in the general environment. Ingenstion, inhalation, and skin contact are the main pathways for individuals to be exposed to hazardous contaminants. Exposure to biological, physical, and chemical agents in the environment can cause a wide range of adverse health consequences. Health risk assessment is the process used to estimate the nature and probability of adverse health effects in the past, current, and in the future about certain pollutants. Health risk assessment is conducted in accordance with hazard identification, dose–response assessment, exposure assessment, and risk characterization. Carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risk assessments are used to estimate health effects due to exposure to pollutants.
