Biracial in America
Authors: Khanna Nikki
Published: February 2025

Elected in 2008, Barack Obama made history as the first African American president of the United States. Though recognized as the son of a white Kansas-born mother and a black Kenyan father, the media and public have nonetheless pigeonholed him as black, and he too self-identifies as such. Obama’s experience as an American with black and white ancestry, though compelling because of his celebrity, is not unique and raises several questions about the growing number of black-white biracial Americans today: How are they perceived by others with regard to race? How do they tend to identify? And why? Taking a social psychological approach, Biracial in America identifies influencing factors and several underlying processes shaping multidimensional racial identities. This study also investigates the ways in which biracial Americans perform race in their day-to-day lives. One’s race isn’t simply something that others prescribe onto the individual but something that individuals “do.” The strategies and motivations for performing black, white, and biracial identities are explored.
Transnational Roots of the Civil Rights Movement
Authors: Chabot Sean
Published: February 2025

How did African Americans gain the ability to apply Gandhian nonviolence during the civil rights movement? Responses generally focus on Martin Luther King’s “pilgrimage to nonviolence” or favorable social contexts and processes. This book, in contrast, highlights the role of collective learning in the Gandhian repertoire’s transnational diffusion.

Collective learning shaped the invention of the Gandhian repertoire in South Africa and India as well as its transnational diffusion to the United States. In the 1920s, African Americans and their allies responded to Gandhi’s ideas and practices by reproducing stereotypes. Meaningful collective learning started with translation of the Gandhian repertoire in the 1930s and small-scale experimentation in the early 1940s. After surviving the doldrums of the McCarthy era, full implementation of the Gandhian repertoire finally occurred during the civil rights movement between 1955 and 1965. This book goes beyond existing scholarship by contributing deeper and finer insights on how transnational diffusion between social movements actually works. It highlights the contemporary relevance of Gandhian nonviolence and its successful journey across borders.
When the Letter Betrays the Spirit
Authors: King-Meadows Tyson
Published: February 2025

When the Letter Betrays the Spirit examines the wide latitude provided to the executive branch and to the Supreme Court by the text of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Drawing from government enforcement data, legislative history, Supreme Court rulings, the 2006 reauthorization debate on the VRA, and from the 2007 scandal involving the firing of U.S. attorneys under the Bush Administration, the book examines when, why, and how executive and judicial discretion facilitates violation of voting rights. Connecting Johnson to Obama, the book outlines why the executive-centered model of voting rights enforcement relegates Congress to the sidelines, and outlines why a Congress-centered approach provides the best protection against the effects of the law enforcement axiom: the law is neither self-executing nor self-interpreting. The book also examines 2008 survey results about public support for a Jim Crow-era election reform policy that would require voters to read a passage of the Constitution. Describing the civic literacy dimensions of voting rights law from Shaw v. Reno (1993) to Northwest Austin Utility v. Holder (2009), the book highlights the complicated nature of the post-racial rhetoric surrounding the 2008 election cycle and surrounding the upcoming post-2010 census redistricting cycles.
Salsa and Its Transnational Moves
Authors: Pietrobruno Sheenagh
Published: February 2025

Salsa and Its Transnational Moves presents a brilliant critical analysis of salsa dancing in a major North American city. Drawing from a vast number of disciplines, author Sheenagh Pietrobruno focuses on the tension between the status of dance as a bodily expression of identity and its function as a cultural commodity within the economic life of modern day cities. This engaging work investigates the transnational movements of salsa by exploring the circulation of salsa within the Montreal dance scene, nourished by the continuous flow of a people, and examining the commodification of the Latino culture. Pietrobruno's analysis is singular in highlighting how the migration of a people and a dance represent displacements that are not always homologous. At the core of this work, Pietrobruno offers an extensive and intricate ethnography of the institutions and individuals involved in shaping the Montreal salsa scene that will appeal to academics and general audiences alike, who are interested in the study of anthropology, popular music, dance, gender, ethnicity, and culture.
The Black Book
Authors: Reisser Wesley J.
Published: February 2025

Prior to the end of World War I, President Wilson gathered a group of expert geographers, historians, economists, and political scientists – The Inquiry – to make plans for the coming peace conference. The Inquiry produced a secret document, the Black Book, containing maps and plans for the territorial settlements to be negotiated. This secret plan was brought daily by the President into negotiations and much of it came to fruition on the world map. This work takes an in-depth look at the Black Book and the lasting legacy of American negotiators at the Paris Peace Conference. Many of the successes, and failures, from these peace settlements trace directly back to this remarkable, and heretofore, almost unstudied plan.
Grief, Loss, and Treatment for Death Row Families
Authors: Joy Sandra
Published: February 2025

The families of death row inmates are rarely considered in public discourse regarding the death penalty. They have largely been forgotten, and their pain has not been acknowledged by the rest of society. These families experience a unique grief process as they are confronted with the loss of their loved one to death row and brace themselves for the possibility of an execution. Death row families are disenfranchised from their grief by the surrounding community, and their; mental health needs exacerbated as they struggle in isolation with the ambiguous loss that comes with the fear that the state will kill their loved one.

Grief, Loss, and Treatment for Death Row Families describes the grief that families experience from the time of their loved one’s arrest through his or her execution. In each chapter, Sandra Joy guides the reader through the grief process experienced by the families, offering clinical interventions that can be used by mental health professionals who are given the opportunity to work with these families at various stages of their grief. The author conducted over seventy qualitative interviews with family members from Delaware who either currently have a loved one on death row or have survived the execution of their loved one. Delaware was chosen because though it has a relatively small death row, it is ranked third in the nation with its rate of per capita executions. This book provides an in-depth awareness of the grieving process of death row families, as well as ways that professionals can intervene to assist them in healing. With increased awareness and effective clinical treatment, we can ensure that the families of death row inmates are forgotten no more.

Authors: Nyandika Abigael , Nyawere Philip , Kebenei Sella
Published: February 2025

The paper reports the Elastic and dynamical properties of Niobium Tin. The calculations were performed with the generalized gradient approximation functional of density functional theory with the Perdew–Burke–Ernzerhof exchange-correlation energy through virtual crystal approximation. The mechanical and dynamical properties were investigated using first-principles density functional theory within the generalized gradient approximations using Quantum Espresso code which is an open-source code and pseudopotentials were extracted from the QE database. The code QUANTUM ESPRESSSO which is open source was used with its pseudopotential database. The elastic constants, bulk moduli, Young’s moduli and shear moduli, Poisson ratio, Pugh’s ratio, and anisotropic ratio were also evaluated. The study on the elastic constants was done at zero pressure and it indicated that the compound is stable mechanically and the phonon dispersion study also indicated that the compound is stable dynamically. The elastic constants also led to the conclusion that Niobium Tin is brittle.

Implementation of Hubbard ACT in the United States Military Sole Survivor Policy
Authors: Vanesha Salsabila Keisya
Published: February 2025

This article discusses the influence of the Sole Survivor Policy on US military policy. Under the “Sole Survivor Policy” of the United States Department of Defense, service members who lose all their family members in war cannot be reassigned to a combat zone and will be 'honorably discharged' from the military. It aims to protect “the last son to carry the family name”. This research focuses on the case of the Hubbard brothers who became the forerunner of the Hubbard Act, which was passed by President George W Bush on August 29, 2008. This policy also resulted in veterans who were honorably discharged before the end of their contract not receiving adequate benefits. This has certainly harmed the fundamental rights of war veterans who have fought for their country, but are not given the rights they deserve. The method used in this research is normative juridical research method. The data used is secondary data. The data is presented qualitatively and analyzed descriptively. The result of this research is that the Hubbard Act, which is outlined in a United States public document entitled PUBLIC LAW 110-317, closes the gap in the existing “Sole Survivor” policy by providing veterans with a number of benefits that have been offered to other honorably discharged military members.

Authors: Saripudin  , Maragustam
Published: February 2025

Education aims to improve the quality of human resources through various learning processes. Ibn Sina (Avicenna) was a famous Islamic philosopher in the field of medical science, but many of his thoughts also discussed education and are considered to have made a major contribution to the development of contemporary Islamic educational thought. Compiled from various reference sources obtained, Ibn Sina's educational concept discusses, among other things, the aims of Islamic education, the curriculum in first level education units, how to become an educator, provisions for being a student and the learning environment. This thinking can be the basis for the development of contemporary education, especially as a philosophical basis for designing a good but still adaptive education system. The aim of this research is to discuss Ibn Sina's educational thoughts and his contribution to contemporary Islamic education. The research method used in this research is the library research (library research) method. The results of this study provide an illustration that Islamic education according to Ibn Sina includes dimensions of educational goals, nature of education, curriculum, dimensions of educational methods, dimensions of educators, dimensions of students.
Problems of Speaking English Among Undergraduates : An Investigation Among First Year Faculty of Islamic Studies and Arabic Language (Fia) Students of the South Eastern University of Sri Lanka
Authors: M.R Rishad Muhammed
Published: February 2025

Speaking in second or foreign language has often viewed as the most demand-ing of the four skills. But, most of the ESL learners consider it as a difficult skill to be mastered. Therefore, this study attempted to investigate the problems of speaking English faced by first year FIA students of the SEUSL. Objective of this study was to identify the main problems. Sixty samples were selected from first year FIA students using random sampling technique. Mixed method re-search design was employed in this study. Questionnaire was administrated among sixty students to collect quantitative data and the qualitative data was col-lected through a focused-group interview with six selected students from the samples. Quantitative data was analyzed using SPSS and qualitative data was recorded and transcribed. The findings of this study revealed that students have different kinds of prob-lem in speaking English, like, getting nervous, feeling fear of making mistakes, lack confidence, difficulty in choosing words appropriately and feeling shy. The main factors that caused those problems were reported as lack of confidence, lack of vocabulary, fear of making mistakes and poor listening skill. The stu-dents expect their lecturers to provide more collaborative works, conduct some exciting games and use mother tongue where it is necessary to give instructions to enhance their oral proficiency.

Published: February 2025

To explore the efficacy of AI-powered storytelling in enhancing undergraduate students' language skills, including vocabulary development, pronunciation, grammar, and sentence structure, in this case study, participants' experiences with AIpowered platforms such as AI Dungeon, Plot Factory and Replika were examined. The research utilized narrative recordings together with weekly self- evaluation questionnaires spanning 13 weeks as the data collection approach along with whole-task analysis and language frameworks for analysis. The research proves that AI storytelling automation generated substantial progress in vocabulary improvement, pronunciation quality and sentence generation although grammar and discourse skill development faced diminishes. In addition, the current study confirms the claim that AI-powered tools promote learner independence and motivation, in compliance with multimedia and sociocultural theory in learning. Nonetheless, several limitations, such as a short duration for the study, diversity in participants, and AI moderation concerns, have been discovered. AI-powered storytelling holds significant potential in language instruction, with significant implications for curricula, teacher training, and AI-powered educational platforms.
THE EFFECT OF COOLING MEDIA VARIATIONS AND CYLINDER LINER POSITION ON THE HEAT BALANCE EFFICIENCY OF THE L-300 DIESEL ENGINE
Authors: Wambrauw Karlos , Haurissa Jusuf
Published: February 2025

This study aims to measure the heat balance in the L300 diesel engine using different radiator coolant media and to examine the impact of changing the cylinder liner position. The method used is laboratory experimentation, including data collection and analysis. The variables studied include independent variables such as radiator temperature, dependent variables being the heat balance, and controlled variables such as engine speed, which is maintained at 1500 rpm. The testing was carried out for each cooling medium. The materials used for testing consist of three types of cooling media: radiator coolant, refillable water, and AC water, along with one L300 - 4D56 diesel engine unit. The results show that at 1500 rpm engine speed, the specific fuel consumption for the engine with the reversed cylinder liner reached 2.863 kg/HP.hour. The heat balance comprises Qf = 100%, Qe = 20%, Qef = 11%, Qcool = 29%, Qm = 20%, and Qi = 20%. Meanwhile, for the engine with the standard cylinder liner position, the specific fuel consumption was 2.0832 kg/HP.hour, with the heat balance composition of Qf = 100%, Qe = 30%, Qef = 14%, Qcool = 20%, Qm = 15%, and Qi = 21%. The heat balance percentage difference between the two engine configurations is 7%. Based on these results, the engine with the reversed cylinder liner position is still considered feasible and efficient for use.

Each piece of evidence, from the point of view of reliability, must be assessed in the totality of all the evidence presented with a comprehensive and detailed assessment of the sources of factual data and prove the entire process of constructing evidence. The final decision on the reliability of evidence can be made as a result of comparing its content with information from other sources. In order to assess the reliability of a certain fact obtained from one source or another, it is necessary to analyze the content of the information received, compare it with other evidence, find out their compliance or contradiction, and in case of contradiction, identify the reasons for the discrepancy. Summarizing the powers granted to the defense attorney in criminal procedure, we come to the conclusion that any evidence obtained by the defense attorney is proper in terms of admissibility, reliability, relevance and should be used as the basis for the preliminary investigation by the investigating authority when making a final decision during the preliminary investigation in criminal proceedings, but on the other hand, there is a legislative gap, which consists in the fact that the protocol of private interrogation of the witness and victim participating in the criminal process may contradict the content of the testimony obtained by the inquiry authority, and in this case, are they proper evidence or not?

The procedural order and methods of obtaining evidence by the lawyer are also a legislative gap.

It is important to emphasize and highlight the gap, which consists in the fact that the motions filed by the defense attorney during the preliminary investigation of a specific criminal case, which will be aimed at obtaining evidence or attaching already obtained evidence to the criminal process, are also not regulated, and are actually implemented at the discretion of the body conducting the proceedings, as a result of which the defendant's right to defense may be violated, and in order to avoid this, it is proposed to include in the Criminal Procedure Code a norm according to which motions to obtain or attach obtained evidence, certain circumstances and requirements of the law and / or justified and essential for making a final decision are an obligation and should be included in the scope of judicial guarantees of the legality of pre-trial proceedings.

In this article, the author has addressed the issues and peculiarities of the stages of investigation of criminal proceedings in cases of state treason. Based on the fact that state treason has an extremely high degree of public danger, it is qualified by domestic criminal legislation as a particularly serious crime, with all the consequences arising from it, both in the past and now. The effectiveness of the investigation of criminal proceedings initiated under the elements of the crime of state treason in general, and state treason proceedings in particular, is significantly conditioned by the planned and organized implementation of the investigation process, one of the most important guarantees for ensuring which is the identification of issues at certain stages of the investigation. As with any type of crime, each stage of the investigation of state treason has its own characteristic features, in the context of which the issues of increasing the effectiveness of the investigation can be identified. Taking into consideration the structural analysis of the methodology for investigating cases of state treason, the author has found that the classification of investigative actions depending on their purpose can be considered more characteristic and accordingly has made the appropriate division of investigative actions. Then the author has referred to both the secret investigative actions defined by the RA Criminal Procedure Code carried out in cases of state treason, as well as the operational-investigative measures defined by the RA Law “On Operational-Investigative Activities”.

Generalizing, the author has come to the conclusion that during criminal proceedings initiated under the features of the crime of state treason, attention must necessarily be paid to each of its components, taking into consideration modern challenges and the state’s imperative duty to effectively combat them.

Published: February 2025

The bisphosphonates are prescribed drugs to prevent bone resorption particularly in patients having certain malignancies. However, there is a potential risk of osteonecrosis of jaws in patients receiving dental treatment. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the chances of osteonecrosis in patients referred for management of osteonecrosis in whom dental treatment was carried out by the referring dental professionals. Hence, 86 patients were studied, where 18 patients had developed osteonecrosis particularly after dental extraction of which 13 patients were having underlying malignancy. Medication induced necrosis of jaws is more in patients with underlying malignancy or other co-morbidities compared to the patients who aren't suffering from who are not malignancy and dental treatment. Moreover, extraction is a trigger in such patients for developing the debilitating condition.

Published: February 2025

The purpose of this study is to determine the level of liquidity of PT. Astra Agro Lestari Tbk using cash flow statement analysis. The population of this study is the annual financial statements of PT. Astra Agro Lestari Tbk from 2021 to 2023. The example used in this study is the cash flow statement from 2021 to 2023. The results of the study show that changes in the three-year cash flow statement affect the company's cash flow position. In 2023, the company's operating activities increased, but in 2021–2022 they fell to a negative value. In 2023, the company's operating activities only increased, but were still negative. In 2021–2023, investment activities also decreased in value due to a decrease in loans for the purchase of fixed assets, expansion of production facilities, and expansion of biological assets. In addition, fundraising activities continued to decline, with the largest decline occurring between 2021 and 2023. The company has been illiquid for the past three years, according to its liquidity measurement with its cash ratio. Due to the inability to provide cash and cash equivalents, current liabilities then increased. The current industry standard is well below the cash ratio. This value will exceed the industry standard for the first time in 2022, indicating that the company is able to pay its short-term debt this year.

Authors: Marthen Lona
Published: February 2025

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the fulfillment of socio-economic rights of the community in Rote Ndao Regency, as one of the underdeveloped regions in Indonesia, and to identify the obstacles faced by the local government in its efforts to fulfill them. Socio-economic rights, such as access to education, health, employment, and public services, are part of the human rights guaranteed by the constitution. However, their implementation often encounters various obstacles in areas with less developed socio-economic conditions. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive analytical approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, document studies, and field observations. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of socio-economic rights in Rote Ndao Regency is still not optimal. This can be seen from the low level of community access to educational facilities, health services, and basic infrastructure. On the other hand, the local government faces a number of significant obstacles, such as budget constraints, lack of adequate infrastructure, low quality of human resources, geographical barriers, and weak coordination between agencies. As a solution, this study recommends increasing budget allocations for priority sectors, developing basic infrastructure, improving the quality of human resources through education and training, and strengthening cross-sectoral coordination. In addition, active community involvement in the planning and implementation of development programs is also very important to improve the effectiveness of policies. The results of this study are expected to contribute to local governments and other stakeholders in formulating more effective strategies to accelerate the fulfillment of people's socio-economic rights, while improving the quality of life in Rote Ndao Regency.

Published: February 2025

Taklik talak is an agreement between a husband and wife aimed at protecting the wife from the arbitrary actions of the husband. The recitation of the taklik is done by the husband after the marriage contract (ijab kabul) is performed. In practice, the recitation of the taklik talak is seen as obligatory, as it is almost always carried out in every marriage ceremony. However, according to Article 46 of the Compilation of Islamic Law, taklik talak is not mandatory.The issues arising from this background include:a) The position of taklik talak in Indonesian marriage law and the Compilation of Islamic Law.b) How taklik talak is implemented in society.The approach used to address these issues is a juridical-sociological method, which links events in the field with legal aspects or applicable laws. Taklik talak has existed in Indonesia since the reign of Sultan Agung Hanyakrakusuma, the king of Mataram (1554 Java/1630 AD), with the purpose of protecting wives who are abandoned by their husbands due to state duties.The law states that taklik talak is not mandatory. It is recited only if both spouses agree to it. However, once recited, taklik talak cannot be revoked. Many people perceive taklik talak as a necessary part of the marriage process, as it is customary for it to be recited in every marriage.In society, divorces often occur due to violations of taklik talak. To prove that taklik talak has been violated, judges consider evidence such as letters and witnesses, especially from family members or close acquaintances. The consequences of divorce due to the violation of taklik talak include issuing a talak satu or talak khuli against the wife, and the wife may be subjected to an iwadh penalty of Rp. 10,000.00.
