Industrialization is predicted to able to improve the welfare of people's lives and open up many new jobs for the community. However, various industrialization practices that have been and will be carried out are, in fact, not in favor of the community and instead create conflicts and social inequality in society. One of the industrializations carried out in Indonesia is one along the North Coast of Java or Pantura. This study aims to find out how industrialization is from the government and the capital owners’ perspectives and the real impact of industrialization on society. This study uses a qualitative approach. Data were collected in the form of video documentaries and literature studies. The study results show that industrialization does not favor the welfare of society. Many people are put in a difficult situation because of the loss of lands and livelihoods and the environmental damage caused by industrialization.

Collective Memory of Java's North Coast Road (Pantura) in Central Java in the New Order Period: A Historical Study
Authors: Hartatik Endah Sri
Published: March 2024

Jalan Raya Pantai Utara (commonly referred to as Pantura) has given rise to a multitude of phenomena that have since embedded themselves as shared memories among the communities residing along its route, as well as those who have journeyed along this roadway. These collective recollections encompass a range of elements, including the historical Jalan Raya Pos, notorious for the harsh policies enacted during Daendels' era, instances of criminal activities, traffic accidents, the presence of prostitution, vibrant graffiti art, the distinctive strains of Pantura's Dangdut music, and various others. However, this reservoir of collective memory is gradually dissipating, largely due to the Pantura highway making way for the Trans Java Toll Road. The distinctive phenomena and symbols that once adorned the landscape of Jalan Pantura have the potential to be pieced together into a comprehensive narrative within the annals of collective history. Employing historical methodologies and conducting oral history interviews served as the foundation for sourcing information in this study. Through meticulous exploration of archival records and engaging in dialogues with carefully selected informants, this research underscores that the intricate web of recollections surrounding the complexities of Pantura's history was shaped incrementally, parallel to the evolution of its economic, social, political, and cultural facets. The findings of this research underscore that the collective memory encapsulating the multifaceted essence of Pantura's past has been an evolving creation intertwined with the progression of economic, social, political, and cultural dimensions. Significantly, we continue to encounter traces of this collective memory in a myriad of artistic expressions, melodious songs, and numerous other manifestations that persist even today.

The Transformation of the Baduy Tourism Village as a Public Space and Provincial Support Area
Authors: Khanifah Anisatul , Handoyo Pambudi
Published: March 2024

The Baduy tribe is a tribe that still adheres closely to the rules of their ancestors, they live in the village of Kanekes, Lebak Regency which has been designated as a tourist village since 1990 by the Lebak Government. Every year, tourists visiting is increasing. because of this, negative impacts are also increasingly visible, one of which is the violation of Baduy pikukuh (rules). The method used in this study is descriptive qualitative with literature studies which are analyzed using Mac Iver's Concept of Social Change. This research was conducted to determine the impact of the existence of a Baduy tourism village as a provincial buffer area against the rejection of the population and the surrounding environment. The results of this study indicate that there is a clash between the Baduy people and tourists caused by violations such as littering, the use of chemicals such as soap, and the use of electronic goods by tourists which are used to document the Baduy tribe. The existence of this tourist village has a negative path that has emerged so that changing the term to become Saba Baduy Culture is considered a suitable term to represent the Baduy tribe because the meaning of Baduy cultural saba leads to visits to Baduy culture meaning that there are those who "visit" and those who "visit". So there is a need for integration between tourism, culture, and customs. Thus cultural ethnicity is not a tourist object, this is what is trying to be emphasized through the term Baduy Cultural Saba

Published: March 2024

The use of natural resources is very prone to conflict because of the friction between economic motives (utility) and conservation motives (protection). This potential conflict also occurs in the use of Mount Sewu UNESCO Global Geopark where the main development is through the tourism sector. This research aims to find out the strategies of the people who are members of the Tourism Awareness Group (Pokdarwis) in dealing with potential conflicts over use and environmental conservation in the Gunung Sewu UNESCO Global Geopark area. This research is a qualitative study with a descriptive approach. The locations of this research are in Gunungkidul Regency, namely the Nglanggeran Ancient Volcano Geosite, the Pindul Cave Geosite, and the Siung Beach Geosite. This area was chosen as a representation of 2 (two) other districts in the Gunung Sewu UNESCO Global Geopark area, namely Wonogiri District and Pacitan District. In this research, researchers used participatory observation where data was collected through observation and sensing where the observer or researcher was truly involved in the respondent's daily life. The results of this research show that there is physical and non-physical damage as a result of the use of geoparks in the tourism sector. Physical damage includes damage to karst rocks, soil erosion, damage to vegetation, decreased water absorption capacity, pollution of rivers and seas, and vandalism. While non-physical damage includes economic inequality and social conflict. As a response to this damage, Pokdarwis adopted strategies and policies, including holding environmental cleanup work, building tourist attractions with environmentally friendly materials, installing signs calling for environmental cleanliness, limiting the number of tourist operators, managing waste in an integrated manner, building alternative tourist attractions, and forbid investors from entering. Based on a literature review, these strategies are classified as grassroots innovations. This research also strengthens the theory that community participation or empowerment is one of the best strategies in dealing with conflicts over environmental use and conservation.
The Role of Children in Bridging the Technological Gap of Parents: A Social Philosophy Perspective in the Digital Era
Authors: Juliana Revita , Anshori Isa
Published: March 2024

The rapid advancement of technology has influenced various aspects of social life, particularly within the family environment. The current technological progress has resulted in a significant technological gap among the older generation, primarily due to generational differences between parents and children. These differences in generations lead to disparities in understanding and knowledge of technology. The consequences of this technological gap profoundly impact daily life patterns, often resulting in negative consequences. This technological gap can impact parental relationships, as parents with limitations in understanding technology often require their children's guidance. This is crucial because children tend to grow and adapt quickly to a world dominated by various advanced technologies. The primary objective of this study is to gain a comprehensive understanding of how children address the technology gap with their parents. The research methodology employed for this study is qualitative. In the process of data collection, participants were selected from families with school-age children possessing proficiency in using technology, while the parents needed more experience with modern technology. The findings of the research highlight the pivotal role that children play in enhancing the quality of life for their parents in addressing technological disparities. Children serve as valuable sources of knowledge, guiding their parents in learning and using technology effectively.

Authors: Khamimiya Aza Rifda , Handoyo Pambudi
Published: March 2024

Urban areas are areas with the largest population due to urbanization. As a result, problems arise. The problem that often occurs is the problem of using public space. As the population increases, the number of vehicles increases, so many parking spaces are used in public spaces due to the density that occurs in public space areas. So the context of power is often ignored in this case. The aim of the research is to find out how power relations and social capital are used by parking attendants in the Tunjungan street area. The method used is qualitative descriptive based on primary data. Primary data comes from documentation, observations and interviews with parking attendants. The selection of informants was carried out using a purposive sampling technique with a total of 5 parking attendants. The location chosen was in the area of Tunjungan street. Data collection was carried out in three stages, namely the reduction stage, data presentation and conclusion drawing. The results obtained are the power relations that are formed here, which are meant when there is social capital in the form of social networks owned by individual actors or groups in relation to other parties who have power. The relationship that exists between parking attendants and the government is based on a cooperation contract. Meanwhile, the causal relationship that is formed between parking attendants in determining areas is due to the power factor in the form of kinship.

Published: March 2024

In the theoretical part of this paper, the Tsai-Wu tensor theory is used to determine the equation for the biaxial strength envelope of a material. One great advantage of using the Tsai-Wu theory for investigating biaxial strength envelopes is that it may be transformed to arbitrary co-ordinate axes by means of tensor transformation laws. In the experimental part of the paper, the strengths in compression and shear are evaluated using thick-walled tubes consisting of two layers of paper glued together with a non-penetrating glue. In addition, the strength of paper under biaxial stress is determined by subjecting paper tubes to axial tension or compression combined with a radial tension caused by internal pressure. In the final part of the paper, the application of the Tsai-Wu tensor theory to the prediction of failure of a corrugated container is discussed, as well as practical means of limiting the number of experiments necessary to establish the biaxial failure envelope of paper.

Organisation Requirements for Innovation and Economic Growth
Authors:   Wiggins Teape Research and Development Limited, Mawson A.
Published: March 2024

Innovation, revolutionary change, is a major element of economic growth and brings about changes in productivity, employment and competitiveness, nationally and internationally. The prime requirement for innovation is existing or latent market need. R & D is not a sufficient component in itself to bring about innovation. Fundamental research work is probably most cost-effective if directed towards solving the problems of evolutionary change. Revolutionary innovation challenges the established order, changes patterns of work, makes capital plant redundant and sometimes eliminates the whole market for certain products. Generally it involves risks and time-scales far beyond those normally handled in a company. Increasingly it requires large amounts of revenue and capital. To overcome these obstacles to innovation requires a strong sense of purpose in an organisation and strong direction of research activity. Given our own industry’s pitiful profit record Government support may be necessary. However, stronger funding of a smaller number of projects should be the aim.

Published: March 2024

About five years ago, signs began appearing that economic growth in the United States was losing its vitality. In an economy as complex as that of the US it is not always easy to distinguish symptoms from causes. Industrial innovation has long been recognised as the engine of the American economy, and it was clear that this loss of power could not be explained simply in terms of OPEC and the rapid rise in the cost of energy. Many measures of the “State of Innovations” have shown signs of a downturn. President Carter initiated a cabinet-level study of the extent to which government regulation might be to blame, and numerous other groups have analysed the extent to which other factors have contributed to the decline.

Multidimensional scaling, a statistical technique that permits separation and identification of the principal factors used by people when judging differences and preferences between pairs of test stimuli, has been adapted to the subjective evaluation of print quality. Numerical values of the factors involved in subjective print quality evaluation are used to establish the relationship with corresponding physical print qualities and related paper properties. Information is also generated concerning the preferences and reliability of each judge and the degree to which each judge agrees with other judges in a professional group. Multidimensional analysis of the subjective evaluation of wire-mark in solid letterpress prints indicates that the degree to which lines appear in the wire-mark pattern is as disturbing as the overall wiremark intensity. Mottle, show-through, contrast, and paper colour are found to be of importance in the judgement of stereo letterpress print quality; while mottle, liming, show through, and set-off are found to be significant in polymer plate letterpress printing trials. Physical tests are compared for their ability to predict these subjective print quality factors.

Authors:   Paprican, Pointe Claire, Quebec, Canada, Burgess B. W.
Published: March 2024

As a result of the foresight, imagination and initiative of a few technical people and executives in the Canadian pulp and paper industry in the early 20’s, the Pulp and Paper Research Institute of Canada was created 56 years ago to serve the industry. Its establishment recognised the fact that, even in those early days, the industry needed research and development, and that it would need to train scientists. Thus, right from the outset, PAPRICAN has had two broad missions: 1. To do research of importance to the industry: 2. To train scientists and technical personnel for the industry. However, an appreciation of the nature of the Canadian pulp and paper industry is essential to an understanding of the development of PAPRICAN and of its programme.

Síntesis y análisis estructural de la ludwigita Co2InBO5
Authors: Zavala Augurio , Quispe Justiniano , Sánchez Dalber
Published: March 2024

We report the study on the synthesis of indium-doped cobalt ludwigite (Co2InBO5). The Match program, applied to the XRD powder standard, determined that the compound consists of two phases: phase I, ludwigite Co2InBO5 and phase II, the indium oxide In2O3 impurity. The Rietveld refinement applied to the XRD powder standard determined that the percentage by weight of phase I was 98.18% and the percentage by weight of phase II was 1.82%. The atomic ratio between Co and in corresponded to Co/In=2/1, for a goodness of fit s = 1.64 and Chi2 ≅ 2.70. With these adjustment values, the chemical content of the experimental compound was adjusted to its theoretical chemical stoichiometric content. In the unit cell, the different types of atoms occupied the Wyckoff positions 2b, 2c, 4g, and 4h. Atoms of the same or different types can occupy the same Wyckoff position, but a group of them occupy equivalent positions forming a crystallographic orbit. The refined position of each of the different types of atoms, in the unit cell, showed that the B ions, Co and In, form bonds with oxygen generating structural units in the form of triangles (BO3) and in the form of octahedrons (CoO6, InO6). These structural units form low- dimensional substructures such as three-legged ladders 313, 424 and zigzag-shaped planes. Both, the three-legged ladders and the zigzag-shaped planes are formed by the (Co/In)O6 octahedrons, and extend along the crystallographic axis c. These substructures are responsible for their extraordinary physical properties.
Valstybinis ir valstybių remiamas terorizmas: Rusijos atvejo analizė
Authors: Žotkevičiūtė-Banevičienė Agnietė
Published: March 2024

Despite the worldwide condemnation of Russia’s aggressive activities in the war against Ukraine, there is no unified definition of terrorism in relation to Russia. Russia is referred to as a terrorist state as well as a state that supports terrorism, and the conceptions of a terrorist regime or a user of terrorist methods dominate. The answer to whether Russia should be labelled a terrorist state, a state that sponsors terrorism, or possibly not designate Russia’s actions as terrorism depends on the definition of terrorism. Given the complexities of the conception of terrorism, the purpose of this article is to present a possible assessment of Russia’s aggression in Ukraine by exploring the challenge of defining state and state-sponsored terrorism in traditional and critical terrorism studies. The article promotes a wider academic discussion regarding state and state-sponsored terrorism, not only from diverse theoretical perspectives in terrorism studies but also by evaluating the issue of the phenomenon’s politicization in the context of international relations.

Purpose: To identify risk factors for spontaneous preterm delivery (SPD) given that it is associated with high neonatal morbidity and mortality. Material and methods: This case-control study was carried out between 1st February and 31st July 2021. Women who delivered spontaneously between 28 and ˂37 weeks (cases) or at ≥37 weeks (controls) were recruited. The main variables recorded included maternal age and parity, inter-pregnancy interval, if the pregnancy was intended, medical, obstetrical and family past-histories, gestational age at delivery, number of gestation and pathologies during current gestation. Fisher exact test, t-test and logistic regression were used for comparison. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Our frequency of preterm delivery was 15.3% (116/759 births), with 9.9% (75/759) being SPD. Significant risk factors for SPD were premature rupture of membranes (aOR 19.96, 95%CI 11.04-45.82), inter-pregnancy interval ˃60 months (aOR 13.02, 95%CI 6.11-33.01), Nulliparity (aOR 10.21, 95%CI 5.72-21.31), 1st degree family history of SPD (aOR 7.73, 95%CI 1.54-11.39), malaria in the 3rd trimester (aOR 6.89, 95%CI 2.15-8.63), multiple pregnancies (aOR 6.43, 95%CI 3.21-9.79), severe anemia (Hb ˂6g/dl) in the 3rd trimester (aOR 5.73, 95%CI 2.04-10.60) and unintended pregnancies (aOR 2.44, 95%CI 1.98-7.88). Conclusion: Women with multiple or unintended pregnancies and those with the pre-gestational risk factors identified above should be well followed up during pregnancy to allow prevention, if not, early diagnosis of SPD. Moreover, prevention of the above-identified pathologies in pregnancy is mandatory if we want to reverse the rate of SPD

Knowledge can affect the success of therapeutic outcomes in hypertensive patients. Blood pressure must be controlled to prevent risk factors for other cardiovascular diseases. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between knowledge of patients with hypertension and the success of therapy outcomes that showed controlled blood pressure. This observational cross-sectional study was conducted from March to June 2021 at Tangerang District Health Centers. A sample of 85 outpatients with hypertension was administered the HK-LS questionnaire to measure their level of knowledge, while the results of therapeutic outcomes were measured using blood pressure. The results showed that 60% of patients had intermediate knowledge and only 28.24% of the subjects had well-controlled blood pressure. There was a correlation between knowledge and therapy outcomes (p<0.05) with coef. correlation was -0.336, means a weak and inverse correlation. Comorbidity and sex were significantly correlated with knowledge (p<0,05). The level of knowledge needs to be improved to decrease the number of comorbidities or risk of complications to raise the goal of therapy.

The Indonesian Food and Drug Authority (BPOM) investigated and listed safe and unsafe syrup products in response to the contamination of Ethylene Glycol (EG) and Diethylene Glycol (DEG), causing Acute Kidney Injury in pediatric patients. Unsafe products were recalled and removed from distribution, leading to uncertainty and panic among the public and significantly impacting over-the-counter syrup sales in several pharmacies. This retrospective observational study assessed the impact of EG and DEG contamination on the sales of over-the-counter syrup in Pharmacy X in South Denpasar. Data from three months before (August to October 18th, 2022) and three months following the official instruction was published (October 19th, 2022 to December 2022) were analyzed using Wilcoxon test. The findings reveal a staggering decline in the sales of over-the-counter syrup by 35,03% (p-value of 0.03). Moreover, there was a notable increase of prescriptions in powder forms. The contamination cases caused panic, resulting in changes in behavior and consumption patterns. Despite the availability of safety information on an official website, public hesitance toward syrup products persists, indicating the need to implement a more effective strategy to address misinformation and restore public trust. Each individual must be responsible for educating the public during crises to prevent the spread of misinformation, ultimately restoring trust and normal consumer behavior. Furthermore, efficient stock management should be implemented to anticipate potential health crises in the future proactively.

BACKGROUND

Short-duration (3–5 days) antibiotic treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infection (uUTI) in children >24 months of age is equivalent to longer-duration antibiotic treatment, with added benefits of antibiotic stewardship. At our pediatric emergency department (ED), 13% of 5- to 18-year-old patients discharged with uUTI received ≤5 days of antibiotics. We aimed to increase short-duration prescriptions in patients with uUTI from 13% to >50% over 12 months.

METHODS

This quality improvement project was conducted from January 2021 to August 2022. Complicated UTI was excluded. Interventions included education, practice feedback, and electronic health record changes. The outcome measure, the proportion of children treated with a short antibiotic duration, was studied by using p-charts. Antibiotic days saved were calculated. Revisits with UTI within 14 days of confirmed uUTI treated with short-duration antibiotics (balancing measure) were analyzed by using Fisher’s exact test.

RESULTS

In 1292 (n = 363 baseline, 929 post-intervention) eligible patients treated for uUTI, shorter antibiotic duration increased from 13% to 91%. We met our 50% aim within 2 months, with continued improvement leading to an additional centerline shift. Consequently, 2619 antibiotic days were saved. Two of 334 (0.6%) patients returned (P = NS) within 14 days of the index visit with a culture-positive uUTI.

CONCLUSIONS

By using education, feedback, and electronic health record changes, we decreased antibiotic duration in children discharged from the ED for uUTI without a significant increase in return visits with UTI. These interventions can be expanded to wider age groups and other outpatient settings.
“VAE VICTIS. UN CASO DE REPRESIÓN, PAUPERIZACIÓN Y MUERTE EN LA GALICIA DE LA GUERRA CIVIL ESPAÑOLA Y LA POSGUERRA (1936-1953)”

El 14 de julio de 1936 Ramón Fernández Rico (Vilasantar, A Coruña 1891 – Pontevedra, 1937), Primer Teniente de Alcalde del municipio de A Estrada (provincia de Pontevedra) a consecuencia del triunfo del Frente Popular en las elecciones de febrero de ese mismo año, quedó al frente del gobierno municipal por delegación de su titular, que se había trasladado a Madrid con los diputados gallegos que presentaron a las Cortes los resultados del Plebiscito de Autonomía de Galicia votado el pasado 28 de junio. Tras el comienzo del golpe de Estado en Galicia y la rápida caída de la práctica totalidad de la región en manos de los sublevados (20-27 de julio) (Velazco Souto, 2006), fue detenido por los facciosos, condenado a muerte y ejecutado en junio de 1937. Estos trágicos sucesos que se inscriben en el drama de la Guerra Civil Española (1936-1939), fueron registrados en un acervo documental privado excepcional, consistente en un despacho oficial, dos certificados de defunción y ciento seis cartas, la mayor parte de ellas cruzadas entre Fernández Rico, su esposa, Purificación Prado Rey (¿?, 1892 – A Estrada, 1940), y la más grande de las hijas del matrimonio, también llamada Purificación, durante los meses en los que el primero estuvo preso1. La información contenida en estos documentos se vio enriquecida por la posibilidad de construir otras fuentes de naturaleza oral, a partir de las entrevistas realizadas por el autor en 2006 a dos de sus cuatro hijos supervivientes, José Manuel (A Estrada, 1925 - Montevideo, 2014) y Divina Pastora (A Estrada, 1927 - Buenos Aires, 2019), cuando tenían 82 y 79 años, respectivamente.
A ACTUAL AFIRMAÇÃO DE SOLUÇÕES POLÍTICAS POPULISTAS E AUTORITÁRIAS OU DITATORIAIS E TIPOLOGIAS DE REGIMES POLÍTICOS

Atravessamos uma conjuntura de crise do multilateralismo e de regimes democráticos, de reafirmação do unilateralismo e de governos populistas/autoritários ou, mesmo, de ditaduras. Correlacionadamente, verificou-se uma desarticulação – total ou parcial – do predomínio do keynesianismo e do estruturalismo (do modelo de Estado-Providência e da globalização regulada) enquanto estratégias de governação da economia-mundo capitalista. Em muitos países desenvolvidos, de desenvolvimento intermédio ou subdesenvolvidos, da hegemonia do monetarismo e da globalização neoliberal têm resultado instabilização e radicalização social e cultural.
