The Urgency of Expanding the Position and Functions of the Vice President in a Presidential System: A Study on Article 4 of the 1945 Constitution
Authors: Herman  , Chaidir Randy
Published: May 2024

This research highlights the role and position of the Vice President within Indonesia's presidential system, which remains ambiguous compared to the clearly defined role and authority of the President. The lack of clarity in the division of duties and the poorly defined role often lead to overlaps or gaps in the responsibilities that the Vice President should fulfill. This can result in uncertainty in decision-making and the implementation of government programs. The presence of a Vice President should ideally add an extra layer of accountability within the government. However, if their role is unclear, the public may find it difficult to assess their performance and to hold them accountable for their actions or decisions. When compared to other countries' constitutions, such as the United States and the Philippines, the role of the Vice President is more defined, but the role of the Indonesian Vice President appears to be more dependent on the President's policies. In the 1945 Constitution of Indonesia, the role of the Vice President is only broadly outlined in Article 4 paragraph (2) and Article 8. This ambiguity causes the Vice President's authority to depend on the President's policies. This research utilizes legal regulation, conceptual, and comparative approaches to understand the Vice President's position and powers. The research findings indicate that the Vice President's role is intended to assist the President and has a primary role in assuming the President's position in accordance with Article 8 of the 1945 Constitution. However, the Vice President's role does not have absolute authority as their power depends on the President's policies and preferences. This creates a complex dynamic between the President and the Vice President, with the Vice President's authority merely shadowing the President's power. Upon examining Article 4 of the 1945 Constitution, the Vice President's role should emulate that of the Vice President of the United States. According to this provision, the Vice President, with support from the Ministers, has the authority to declare the President's incapacity to exercise power and presidential duties, and conversely, the President can make statements contrary to the Vice President's statements, complementing each other.

A depender do status sanitário do biotério, os animais de laboratório podem tornar-se reservatórios parasitológicos, representando risco biológico para os trabalhadores encarregados  do seu manejo. Diante desse cenário, realizou-se uma pesquisa qualitativa e descritiva, utilizando o método de revisão de escopo proposto pelo Instituto Joanna Briggs, durante  os meses de fevereiro e março de 2024. A partir da questão norteadora “Qual a importância do controle parasitológico de animais de laboratório para a saúde dos trabalhadores de biotérios?”, foi conduzida uma busca eletrônica nas bases de dados MEDLINE, LILACS e SciELO, utilizando os descritores “Controle de Infecções”, “Doenças Parasitárias”, “Animais de Laboratório”, “Zoonoses”, “Saúde do Trabalhador” e “Técnicos em Manejo de Animais”, selecionados no sistema DeCS/MeSH. Foram incluídos artigos completos, independentemente do delineamento, em português, inglês e espanhol, publicados de 2010 a 2024. Foram excluídos artigos incompletos, repetidos e que não estavam relacionados ao assunto principal. Após a realização das buscas, foram identificados 766 artigos, dos quais 267 eram duplicatas e foram excluídos, restando 499. Desses, quatro artigos foram mantidos após leitura de seus títulos, resumo e textos integrais, para compor esta revisão. Os artigos selecionados foram publicados nos anos de 2012, 2017, 2018 e 2019, consistindo em três estudos de campo e uma pesquisa bibliográfica. Esses estudos demonstraram a importância de controlar infecções por parasitas, como Ornithonyssus bacoti, Giardia spp. e Cryptosporidium spp no biotério, a fim de prevenir a transmissão para os trabalhadores, apesar da escassez de artigos disponíveis sobre o tema. Entre as medidas de controle destacam-se as barreiras sanitárias, os procedimentos operacionais padrão e a adequada estrutura física do biotério.
Exploring the Drivers of Government Expenditure Patterns in Pakistan
Authors: Khan Waqar Muhammad , Ilyas Tahira , Chattha Aneela Akhtar
Published: May 2024

The study investigating the factors influencing government spending in Pakistan utilizes time-series data spanning from 1980 to 2019. The analysis modifies Wagner's law by incorporating political instability alongside variables such as GDP, debt, inflation, population, trade openness, oil price, and tax revenue. The long-term findings validate Wagner's law in both models, while the short-term results deviate from Wagner's law in Pakistan. This deviation suggests that industrialization progress has enabled the government to improve public expenditure by providing essential facilities. Additionally, the study reveals that the government's active role in national activities leads to an increase in its size. Inflation, population, oil price, real GDP, and political instability exhibit positive and significant connections with government expenditure in the long run for both models. Conversely, debt, nominal GDP, political instability, trade openness, and tax revenue demonstrate negative and significant connections with government expenditure in the long run for both models. However, the short-term results vary between the two models.

Published: May 2024

Objective. To explore the implementation of Biomass Co-Firing in Indonesia, the objective encompasses an analysis of how policies, practices, and investments in Biomass Co-Firing can support desired sustainable development goals. Design/Methodology/Approach. This research utilizes the Library Research methodology, which examines literature, legal documents, and other textual sources to investigate the integration of Biomass Co-Firing into the Indonesian Green Economy. Results/Discussion. The development of renewable energy using biomass and co-firing in power plants offers significant potential for reducing carbon emissions and addressing challenges in clean energy development in Indonesia. With a strong legal foundation as outlined in Article 2 of Law No. 30 of 2007 concerning Energy, the government has provided a solid basis for renewable energy development. However, implementation still faces challenges in permitting regulations and cross-sector coordination. A significant drawback is the lack of specific incentives from the government for biomass co-firing projects, along with uncertainties regarding biomass certification and standardization. To overcome these challenges, concrete steps are needed, such as providing fiscal and financial incentives for industry players and enhancing coordination among the government, private sector, and other stakeholders. Conclusions. The development of renewable energy with biomass and co-firing in power plants promises a reduction in carbon emissions and supports clean energy development in Indonesia, despite facing challenges in permitting and cross-sector coordination. Originality/Value. The harmonization of Biomass Co-Firing projects with the Green Economy paradigm in Indonesia emphasizes resource efficiency, environmental impact reduction, and sustainable economic growth.

«SUITE IN THE OLD STYLE»: VERSION BY ALFRED SCHNITTKE AND BORIS NAPREEV
Authors: Копосова И.В.
Published: May 2024

Статья посвящена сравнению двух «Сюит в старинном стиле» – Альфреда Шнитке (1972) и Бориса Напреева (1984). Оба сочинения возникли на основе уже готовой музыки. Сюита Шнитке составлена из фрагментов кинопартитур двух фильмов («Похождения зубного врача», 1965 и «Спорт, спорт, спорт», 1970; режиссёр обеих лент – Элем Климов). Сюита Напреева отделилась от «Северного альбома» для виолончели и фортепиано (1983–1984), в рамках которого уже представляла собой законченный цикл. В статье анализируются особенности исходного материала двух сочинений, а также принципы, на которые опирался каждый автор, создавая новый опус на основе имеющейся музыки. В результате анализа делается вывод о несхожести двух сюит между собой. Сюита Шнитке является стилизацией, а поскольку она собрана из готового материала, то оказывается близка циклам XIX века – сюитам из балетных номеров или из музыки к драматическим спектаклям. Цикл Напреева тяготеет к работе по модели, он изначально цельный, продолжает и развивает традиции барочной танцевальной сюиты. В целом, несмотря на скромные масштабы, каждое сочинение отразило круг идей и направлений творческого поиска, свойственный для каждого из авторов.

The article compares two “Suites in the old style” by Alfred Schnittke (1972) and Boris Napreev (1984). Both compositions emerged on the basis of ready-made music. The suite by Schnittke is made from some fragments of two music scores for two films (“Adventures of the dentist”, 1965 and “Sport, sport, sport”, 1970; both directed by Elem Klimov).The suite by Napreev was extracted from the “Northern Album” for violoncello and piano (1983–1984), as it was already there as an independent cycle. The article analyzes the source material of two works, the principles of construction of two suites that the author used when creating the new opus on the basis of the existing music. The analysis leads to the conclusion that the suites do not have many similarities. The suite by Schnittke is a stylization. This work is made of finished material and is thus close to cycles of the 19th century – suites from ballet numbers or from music to dramatic performances.The suite by Napreev resembles work on a model, it is originally wholesome. The work by Napreev continues and develops the traditions of the Baroque dancing suite. In general, despite the modest size, each composition reflected the ideas and directions of the creative search of the authors.

Published: May 2024

Urbanization and climate change have increased the risk of flooding in cities. Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) offer a promising approach to mitigate these risks by managing stormwater runoff. This study aims to conduct a meta-analysis to assess the effectiveness of SUDS in reducing urban flood risks. This research is a type of meta-analysis research. The study investigated the impact of SUDS on flood reduction. Data on different types of SUDS, precipitation events, and flood risk metrics were extracted. Standardized mean differences (SMDs) are calculated to measure the overall impact of SUDS on flood reduction. The meta-analysis revealed a significant positive effect of SUDS on reducing urban flood risks. The effect size varied depending on the type of SUDS and the severity of the rainfall event. Overall, SUDS demonstrated effectiveness in mitigating flood risks associated with various storm intensities with effect size value = 0.801. This meta-analysis provides robust evidence for the effectiveness of SUDS in reducing urban flood risks. The findings support the wider adoption of SUDS as a key strategy for sustainable urban development and flood risk management.

The Body as Medium - Embodied Communication and Body Issues in Cloud Fitness
Authors: Ma Yuxin
Published: May 2024

The "body turn" of "cloud fitness" has brought a new theoretical logic to communication. In this paper, we make a preliminary attempt at embodied communication in the context of the new Crown pneumonia epidemic, exploring the issues of body movement and moving bodies on "Shake" and "b-station". Here, the author argues that understanding embodied communication is inseparable from reflecting on technology, and that it is a form of communication in which people, media and technology interact. The article explores the changes of the philosophical category of bodily action in the virtual space of the Internet by tracing the origins of embodied communication; then understands the communication of the body as a medium through the "cloud space" and "cloud body"; and in the whole process of communication, the physical attributes of the body give the online and offline behaviors of the body a new meaning and a new meaning and a new meaning. In the whole process of communication, the physical attributes of the body bring tension to the online and offline actors; in the future, with the advent of the scene-oriented era, the body will have multiple symbolic attributes.

Authors: Xu Bingxia , Azam S M Ferdous
Published: May 2024

Financial support plays a key role in promoting household entrepreneurship in China. This study aims to explore the impact of financial support on household entrepreneurship in China, focusing on the differences between formal and informal financial support. This study combines the use of China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) data with analysis using the Probit model to reveal the relationship between financial support and household entrepreneurship. The results show that financial support has a significant positive impact on household entrepreneurship in China, and the extent of the impact of informal financial support is greater than that of formal financial support. The findings have practical implications for Chinese household entrepreneurs, financial institutions and policy makers. Entrepreneurs can choose the appropriate form of financial support according to their own situation, while financial institutions and the government can consider strengthening financial education and knowledge dissemination, providing entrepreneurial subsidies and support, and offering more flexible financing channels to support the development of family entrepreneurship in China.

Macroeconomic factors strongly influence the economy. It affects countries and businesses equally. The relationship between different macroeconomic factors is an area of widespread study for policymakers and economists. The ultimate purpose of this study is to assess the impact of macroeconomic factors on the economic growth. This research has taken GDP as a substitute variable for the development of the economy as well as endogenous (dependent) variable and FDI, inflation (INF), money supply (M2), public and private domestic investment (DINVEST), and foreign exchange reserve (FExR) as independent variables. Moreover, this study used time series secondary data starting from 2005-06 to 2022-23 for all econometric analysis. On the other side, we utilized the ADF (Augmented Dickey-Fuller) test to study the unit root (stationary property) of data, the Durbin Watson (DW) statistic technique to verify the autocorrelation of variables, the VIF test technique to examine the multicollinearity among independent variables and multiple linear regression to scrutinize the overall effect of macroeconomic factors on growth of the economy. Study findings show that DINVEST and FDI positively affect the growth of the economy. i.e., if macroeconomic variables- DINVEST and FDI are increased by 1 unit, they increase economic growth by 2.96 units and 0.62 units, respectively. However, inflation, money supply, and foreign exchange reserves have a positive effect on economic growth, but it is statistically insignificant. The study implies that economists, researchers, academicians, and policymakers can use the findings of the study for future research and decision-making regarding the effect of macroeconomic factors on economic growth.

Surface-Level Analysis of International Economic Agreements and Their Strangulatory Impact on Pakistan Economy
Authors: Ashfaq Ahmed Muhammad , Nawaz Nasreen , Raheem Awan Muhammad
Published: May 2024

The international economic system that evolved after World War II, which was conceived by and rolled out on behalf of Global North states, essentially stood on a tripod of international economic agreements, that is, International Investment Agreements, Double Taxation Agreements, and International Trade Agreements. The ostensible purpose of these agreements was to (a) facilitate cross-border deployment of surplus investible capital, (b) export of finished and capital goods, and (c) allocate favorably taxing rights between states on various incomes earned by multinational enterprises in overseas jurisdictions. Intuitively, when these agreements are signed by and between states at par level of economic development, their resultant economic outcomes would be equal or near-equal. But when such agreements are signed in asymmetrical bilateral economic settings, that is, between a developed and a developing country, the resultant economic outcomes would most likely be lopsided and inimical to the economic interests of weaker partner in the equation. From the global south perspective, these agreements expose developing countries to international arbitration on account of suits filed by investors, erode their tax base by allowing multinational corporations to enter aggressive tax planning ploys, and undermine their export competitiveness vis-à-vis stronger economies. The paper premises that developing countries that signed more of these agreements, would find themselves in a deeper trouble than those which signed less of them, and that countries that signed the agreements in a quicker span of time, got into trouble quicker, too. In this connection, Pakistan is brought in to undertake a surface-level time-series analysis of its signing agreements and the corresponding trajectory of select economic indicators over the past seven decades.

This study explores how technology, particularly mobile devices, is changing the landscape of foreign language learning. Traditionally, foreign language education relied on various methods and techniques, but the rise of technology and changing teacher attitudes have paved the way for innovative approaches. Mobile Assisted Language Learning (MALL) represents the latest evolution, following the earlier Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) approach. This research investigates the impact of MALL on student attitudes and practices in foreign language learning. The mixed study involved 40 university students from various majors. Data was collected through a 5-point Likert scale survey and follow-up semi structured interviews with some volunteers. The findings revealed a strong belief among students that mobile devices are highly effective for language learning. Students highlighted the advantage of instant access to target language input through mobile tools. Overall, participants' high mobile phone use, media preferences, and frequency of mobile phone usage all pointed towards a positive attitude towards the role of mobile phones in their foreign language development. The findings of this study extend beyond the immediate research and can be applied by future researchers, teachers, parents, and others interested in language learning.
