FENOMENA INFLASI, PENGANGURAN DAN PERTUMBUHAN EKONOMI DI INDONESIA: PENDEKATAN KURVA PHILIPS DAN HUKUM OKUN
Authors: Sukanto Sukanto
Published: February 2024

The objective of this study was to show the correlation between inflation, unemployment, and economic growth in Indonesia. Time series data from 1984 to 2013 were used to carry out descriptive analysis and regression using the VAR model. Results from this study are in agreement with the Philips' finding which states that there is a trade-off between inflation and unemployment. Meanwhile, the relationship between economic growth and changes in unemployment as stated by Okun's Law occurs in Indonesia. This is reflected in the Scatter plot which shows that there is a negative relationship between the two variables. Furthermore, results of the VAR regression model indicate that both inflation and economic growth affect unemployment. The impulse response graph shows that the variables will be convergent towards the equilibrium point or return to the previous equilibrium. The response of unemployment as a result of inflation shock and economic growth over a period of 10 years was found to be convergent. Based on the FEVD output, it can be seen that an important source of variation in unemployment was the shock of unemployment itself while the shocks which are related to inflation and economic growth are relatively small. Keywords: Inflation, unemployment, economic growth, Autoreggresive variation

Published: February 2024

Various disasters have occurred due to lack of knowledge and unpreparedness of the community in the pre-disaster phase. In fact, preparedness has not become a permanent behavior in society so that if a disaster occurs, it is predicted that they will not take care themselves and others. Nursing students as prospective nursing staff must be equipped with knowledge, attitudes and practices in dealing with disasters. This quantitative research aims to determine the effectiveness of the school-based disaster management education model on the knowledge and preparedness of nursing students. A quasi-experimental method is used in the form of a one group pretest-posttest design on 80 Diploma III Nursing students who were trained by facilitators for 6 months. Data were collected using questionnaires and observations, then analyzed using the Paired t-test and Multiple Linear Regression (95% CI; α=0.05). The results showed that disaster management education model can increase knowledge (p=0.000) and preparedness (p=0.002) in facing disasters. Disaster preparedness is significantly related in predicting disaster knowledge scores (r=0.708). If a disaster occurs, nursing students are able to help themselves and the disaster victims.

Situation of Brain Drain in Pakistan, with a Focus on the Healthcare Sector
Authors: Zafar Sameen
Published: February 2024

In this brief, we draw attention to Pakistan with the purpose of diversifying research on brain drain of individuals who migrate from the country primarily in search of a better quality of life and institutions, particularly focusing on the healthcare sector. Brain drain in Pakistan has become a perpetually rising phenomenon with more and more highly skilled workers leaving the country, yet there is relatively less research on this group. Pakistan offers a unique insight into migration of skilled workers from developing states due to the recent economic turmoil, as well as the consequent effects on the country, the repercussions for those who remain behind, and policy instruments used to maximise benefits for all stakeholders. Brain drain in the country has led to a shortage of highly qualified medical professionals, and poor returns on investment by the government.

INTRODUCTION

In discussions about the flow of human capital, there is a common belief that developing countries are increasingly becoming a source of talented individuals who eventually end up in developed countries due to a lack of adequate institutions or environments in their home countries to support them. International migration benefits immigrants by allowing them to achieve a higher income and better quality of life.

While origin countries experience an influx of remittances, increased trade and technological transfers, they also incur losses in human capital and subsequent brain drain. Despite increasing trends in brain drain, most studies on migrants’ demographics and sociology tend to neglect it.

In this brief, we draw attention to Pakistan as a significant region to add to research and theory on studies of migration patterns in developing countries. Pakistan, we argue, exemplifies the global trend of brain drain as approximately 832,339 Pakistanis went abroad for employment in 2022, which is the highest number since 2016 and the third-highest ever recorded according to the Bureau of Emigration and Overseas Employment (BEOE). Additionally, official records indicate that among those who traveled overseas in 2022, over 92,000 were graduates and more than 350,000 were trained workers and labourers (BEOE, 2022). Therefore, Pakistan -a low income country- presents a distinctive prospect to analyse a rapidly growing and diverse brain drain

phenomenon as it offers important insights for migration scholars in comprehending the various factors associated with high-skilled worker migration, its effects on the country, the repercussions for those who remain behind, and policy instruments used to maximise benefits for all stakeholders.

Published: February 2024

Workers in Indonesia of reproductive age have various health problems. Female workers are more vulnerable than male workers, where women will experience menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause, which will make them more vulnerable if exposed to various risk factors in the work environment. Research results (1) say that women who work as full-time workers (35.24%) will be at risk of experiencing reproductive health problems, one of which is menstrual cycle problems. The research aims to determine the descriptive analysis of reproductive quality in working women in the STIKes Respati environment. The type of research is quantitative with descriptive methods, where the population is mothers who work at STIKes Respati. The research showed that weight examination for TB to determine nutritional status through the BMI measurement category showed that 70% had normal nutritional status, as many as 10% of workers were in the underweight category, and 20% were in the obese category. Based on the results of this research, the level of education is in line with a woman's ability to manage her diet well, so it impacts her nutritional status. Based on gynecological history, it is also at an expected average level with no history of gynecological disease in the family, as much as 80%. Meanwhile, the stress level of workers shows that 80% of workers show normal conditions (not stressed), and 20% are in stress conditions starting from mild to moderate stress.

Hindutva Civilizationism in India: Unravelling the Human-Ecological Conditions
Authors: McFadden Alexandra
Published: February 2024

India’s Hindutva movement, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Bharatiya Janata Party, has risen to power in the world’s largest democracy and second-most populous country. Various scholars have examined how Hindu nationalism is rooted in civilizational themes; others have examined how ancient Hindu elements are employed in BJP environmental politics. Yet a comprehensive and interdisciplinary conceptualization of civilizationism that places it, firstly, at the heart of Hindutva and, secondly, confronts it as not solely a discursive or thematic tool but as the manifesting of physical control over citizens’ relationships to their material environment is lacking. This means approaching ‘civilization’ in the far right as a human-ecological structure and not only a historical bedrock of ethno-territorial and theocratic power. In order to conceptualize Hindutva civilizationism, I re-examine two well-known cases of Sangh Parivar environmental politics: (1) Hindutva geography and spatial violence; and (2) anti-meat and cow vigilante politics. Beyond serving as a discourse that ignites violence and far-right extremism, I showcase how the sounding board of ‘civilization’ encapsulates the relationship between sociopolitical and environmental far-right objectives, highlighting the ways that far-right civilizationism seeks to define human relationships with natural and built environments. Conceptualizing civilizationism in this way strengthens understandings of how the racial, ethno-national, and religious features of far-right politics are rooted in ecological doctrine that is often based on the social-material features of past ‘civilization’. This supports the primordial significance of civilizationism in far-right ideology beyond only the white supremacist far-right and ‘Western Civilization’.
Cuerpos disidentes y visualizaciones de lo popular en las fotografías del diseño de indumentaria en Argentina
Authors: Roth Manuela Eva
Published: February 2024

Desde los pensamientos descoloniales y las teorías transfeministas contemporáneas, el artículo analiza las prácticas del diseño disidente y activista dentro del circuito de la moda en Argentina. Especialmente, indaga sobre cómo habitan los medios digitales en un contexto en donde la expansión masiva de la tecnología se presenta como escenario oportuno para difundir emprendimientos autogestivos. Para ello, tomo el caso Cooperativa de Trabajo Protesta Limitada que me permite, a partir de visitas a su espacio laboral, entrevistas y observaciones tanto online como offline, investigar empíricamente las tensiones y contradicciones que se generan entre activismo y moda. El articulo hace foco en el contenido visual crítico que produce la cooperativa y profundiza en dos temáticas centrales: los cuerpos otros como protagonistas y la visualización de lo popular en redes sociales. Por último, reflexiono sobre los límites, contradicciones y aciertos de este colectivo que mantiene prácticas disruptivas y activistas, pero en simultáneo, se reconoce dentro del circuito de la moda.
Equipping local self governments and development practitioners in managing common pool resources – A case of Pampa River in Kerala State, India
Authors: Sai Dinesh K , Paraeswaran Prajeesh , Kumar Nadesapanicker Anil , Shakeela V
Published: February 2024

Governments face challenges and constraints in managing Common Pool Resources (CPRs) worldwide. Almost all developing countries have begun to implement decentralised policies and decision-making systems for delivering public services and the management of environmental goods. In any government structure, distributing public goods is difficult as it will be challenging to exclude potential beneficiaries from obtaining the goods. Similarly, it’s challenging to exclude potential beneficiaries from obtaining benefits from common pool resources. The phenomenal work ‘Governing of Commons’ argues that the CPRs can be managed locally, provided there need to be well-defined institutions at the local level. The actors can govern CPRs themselves to obtain mutual benefits from the CPRs by avoiding problems of exclusion of beneficiaries, conflicts and exploitation of resources. For establishing well-defined rules and norms, it is essential to have constant deliberations and participation of various actors for collective action in managing CPRs. However, at the decentralised level, most local governments have given less attention to prompt decision-making in CPRs, especially concerning environmental resources. This article investigates the capacity and role of local-level institutions in managing CPRs by discussing a Training of Trainers (ToT) programme associated with the health of the Pampa River in Kerala State, India. The ToT programme has helped 41 development practitioners to change their approach toward River Health Management. The deliberations have resulted in an alliance of practitioners and a people’s framework for action projects. It was also studied that the role of local governments and civil society organisations in influencing the decisions made regarding River Health Management has to be improved.

Published: February 2024

The aim of the study is to characterize the efforts of Sofia Andreevna Lyugebil (1824-1914) and Adelaida Semyonovna Simonovich (1844-1933) to open the very first preschool institutions in Russia. The article reveals little-known facts of their biographies and provides data on their practical teaching activities. The text of the article includes memoirs of contemporaries (E. N. Vodovozova, the ‘Sovremennik’ journal), as well as those of former students (A. N. Benois, I. V. Petrashen) of K. I. May’s private gymnasium, where S. A. Lyugebil worked. The scientific novelty of the study lies in introducing into scientific use factual material related to the initial stage of preschool education development in Russia, which remains little known. The participation of S. A. Lyugebil, A. S. Simonovich and their spouses in the work of the first Russian pedagogical society is noted. The contribution of A. S. Simonovich to the development of the theory of preschool education is characterized, her efforts to open the ‘Detsky sad’ journal, the first Russian periodical on preschool subjects, are shown. Information is provided on the initial stage of the organization of preschool education abroad, as well as in Russia (in the pre-Soviet period). The publication of the article coincides with the 200th anniversary of the birth of S. A. Lyugebil and the 180th anniversary of the birth of A. S. Simonovich.
