Published: November 2023

Many researchers in the construction sector have recently taken up the issue of replacing some of the cement and/or natural aggregates used in the daily manufacturing of cement-based materials with non-biodegradable trash. Due to its availability and the fact that it is produced in such large quantities and poses major environmental issues, numerous attempts have been made to understand the impact of using marble dust in concrete. In the majority of earlier research, marble dust was used in place of cement, fine aggregate or coarse aggregate. In the studies reviewed here, dimensional stone waste from the extraction and processing of marble is examined as a component of concrete. The effects of substituting marble debris for normal components on the mechanical, fresh, and durability qualities of concrete were investigated. It can be said that Instead of just replacing conventional Portland cement, it is more advantageous to blend marble debris with fly ash before using it as a binder. On the other side, marble waste can be used to substitute fine and coarse aggregate in greater quantities while still producing acceptable results. The performance depends on the fine aggregate that the waste is replacing as well as the particle size distribution of the coarse aggregate's geological origin. The findings showed that the coarse/fine aggregate, cement, and admixture materials could be adequately replaced in concrete by waste marble when used at specific ratios, and the resulting concrete had a higher strength.
Construction site safety and quality analysis utilizing KHNN Model

Published: November 2023

Improving construction site safety through effective hazard identification and mitigation is critical. This study aims to predict rework, defects, and associated costs using artificial neural networks and optimization algorithms. Traditional safety planning approaches lack pre-construction hazard analysis. To examine deficiencies, various metrics were analyzed, including rework costs per $1M scope and injury rates. Ineffective safety practices like inadequate training and protection have led to accidents. This work identifies approaches to enhance worker safety performance through hazard identification. Inputs to a neural network model predict rework workers, defects, and costs. Safety execution aims to systematically identify hazards before construction. Model performance using actual data was evaluated. Two soft computing methods - artificial neural network and optimization algorithms - were implemented in MATLAB. Krill herd and grey wolf optimization techniques optimized hidden neuron weights in the neural network structure. Predictions from these algorithms outperformed other existing methods like particle swarm and genetic algorithms. This study provides a framework to quantitatively forecast rework, defects, and associated costs through systematic pre-construction hazard analysis and modeling. The proposed optimizationenhanced neural network models can help construction managers implement targeted safety improvements.

Published: November 2023

Synthesizing metal oxide nanomaterials for energy storage applications and optimizing their electrochemical performance is critical for developing next generation energy solutions. In this study, nickel hydroxide nanomaterials were synthesized via precipitation and microwave methods and utilized as pseudo-capacitor electrodes. The precipitation method employing starch as a capping agent yielded nickel hydroxide exhibiting a maximum specific capacitance of 333 Fg-1. The nickel hydroxide can be converted to nickel oxide/carbon (NiO/C) by calcination at higher temperatures. Electrochemical supercapacitor performance of NiO/C synthesized at different calcination temperatures (400, 500, 600 °C) was optimized. NiO/C calcined at 500 °C exhibits a maximum specific capacitance value of 450 Fg-1 at a scan rate of 5 mV.s-1. To determine the structural properties XRD technique was used. The identification of functional groups in synthesized nanomaterials was investigated by the FTIR technique. FESEM was employed to examine the morphological analysis of synthesized nanomaterials. Elemental composition in synthesized materials was examined by using the EDS. The electrochemical potential was studied by using CV, GCD, and EIS techniques.

Hybrid optimization assisted channel selection of EEG for deep learning model-based classification of motor imagery task
Authors: Venu K. , Natesan P.
Published: November 2023

Objectives

To design and develop an approach named HC + SMA-SSA scheme for classifying motor imagery task

Methods

The offered model employs a new method for classifying motor imagery task. Initially, down sampling is deployed to pre-process the incoming signal. Subsequently, “Modified Stockwell Transform (ST) and common spatial pattern (CSP) based features are extracted”. Then, optimal channel selection is made by a novel hybrid optimization model named as Spider Monkey Assisted SSA (SMA-SSA). Here, “Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) and Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit (BI-GRU)” models are used for final classification, whose outcomes are averaged at the end. At last, the improvement of SMA-SSA based model is proven over different metrics.

Results

A superior sensitivity of 0.939 is noted for HC + SMA-SSA that was higher over HC with no optimization and proposed with traditional ST.

Conclusions

The proposed method achieved effective classification performance in terms of performance measures.
Conceptualizing and Reimagining the Future of Inclusive Education in the UAE
Authors: Meda Lawrence , Efthymiou Efthymia , AlHammadi Muna , Williams Cara , Fteiha Mohamed
Published: November 2023

The current study explored how students in various universities across the United Arab Emirates (UAE) conceptualized inclusive education and views of the future with participation from twenty-one pre-service teachers from different universities within the UAE. Data collection consisted of an open-ended questionnaire and semi-structured interviews analyzed using a qualitative case study within an interpretive paradigm. Results indicated that students unanimously conceptualized inclusion from a holistic point of view and projected the future to be associated with a higher level of differentiated instruction. However, the conditions of the Education Act and the results were not in agreement with the premise of liberation pedagogy, as students with special needs reverted to a passive state and adopted a dependent relationship with the teacher. In conclusion, teachers’ motivation was faith in humanity, the rejection of fatalism, and the belief that all learners can actively participate in the transformation of the world by participating in liberation pedagogy, which caters to the diverse needs of students in present and future environments.

Macroporous resins are employed for the purification of polyphenolic extracts. However, the relationship between the adsorption and desorption and the textural properties remains unexplored. Thus, we evaluated the textural properties of HP-20, XAD-16 and SP-825 resins and their impact on adsorption and desorption of specific polyphenols like gallic acid, epigallocatechin, and procyanidin B2. The HP-20 resin exhibited a type II isotherm with macroporous structure, while XAD-16 and SP-825 resins displayed type IV isotherms, typically associated with mesoporous materials. The HP-20 resin demonstrated superior adsorption capacity and rupture points for epigallocatechin (2.37 mg/g, 124 min) and procyanidin B2 (1.29 mg/g, 136 min) compared to SP-825 and XAD-16. Contrary, the SP-825 resin exhibited the highest adsorption capacity (5.34 mg/g) and rupture point (68 min) for gallic acid. However, the desorption was more efficient when HP-20 resin was used for all specific polyphenols. Therefore, for an efficient purification process is necessary to consider the chemical structure of the polyphenol and the textural properties.
“Irony is easy to understand ”: The role of emoji in irony detection
Authors: Bettelli Giulia , Panzeri Francesca
Published: November 2023

In face-to-face conversations, interlocutors might recognize the ironic intent of a speaker relying on the incongruity of the comment relative to a situation, and on irony markers such as the ironic tone of voice and specific facial expressions. In instant messaging, acoustical and visual cues are typically absent, and the context is not always shared. We investigated the role of emoji as cues to detect irony, hypothesizing that they might play the role of the conversational context. We administered to 156 Italian adults a questionnaire, presenting them with WhatsApp messages followed by an emoji, which was congruent or incongruent with the (non-)evaluative positive or negative comment, and found that evaluative incongruent items were rated as more ironic, and that incongruent positive messages were more easily recognized as ironic (criticisms) compared to incongruent negative messages (ironic compliments), in line with the asymmetry of affect hypothesis.
Strong exciton-photon coupling in self-hybridized organic–inorganic lead halide perovskite microcavities

Published: November 2023

Controlling coherent light–matter interactions in semiconductor microcavities is at the heart of the next-generation solid-state polaritonic devices. Organic–inorganic hybrid perovskites are potential materials for room-temperature polaritonics owing to their high exciton oscillator strengths and large exciton binding energies. Herein, we report on strong exciton-photon coupling in the micro-platelet and micro-ribbon shaped methylammonium lead bromide single crystals. Owing to high crystallinity and large refractive index, the as-grown perovskite microcrystals serve as self-hybridized optical microcavities along different orientations due to their distinct physical dimensionalities. In this regard, the perovskite micro-platelet forms a simple Fabry–Perot microcavity in out-of-plane orientation, while the micro-ribbon functions as a Fabry–Perot type waveguide microcavity within the plane of the perovskite sample. Consequently, excitons in these microcavities strongly interact with their corresponding uncoupled cavity modes, yielding multimode exciton-polaritons with Rabi splitting energies ∼205 and 235 meV for micro-platelet and micro-ribbon geometry, respectively. Furthermore, micro-ribbon geometry displays Young’s double-slit-like interference patterns, which together with the numerical simulation readily reveals the parity and the mode order of the uncoupled cavity modes. Thus, our results not only shed light on strong exciton-photon coupling in various morphologies of methylammonium lead bromide microcrystals but also open an avenue for advanced polaritonic devices.
The role of IR inactive mode in W(CO)6 polariton relaxation process
Authors: Hirschmann Oliver , Bhakta Harsh H. , Xiong Wei
Published: November 2023

Vibrational polaritons have shown potential in influencing chemical reactions, but the exact mechanism by which they impact vibrational energy redistribution, crucial for rational polariton chemistry design, remains unclear. In this work, we shed light on this aspect by revealing the role of solvent phonon modes in facilitating the energy relaxation process from the polaritons formed of a T
1u
mode of W(CO)6 to an IR inactive E

g
mode. Ultrafast dynamic measurements indicate that along with the direct relaxation to the dark T
1u
modes, lower polaritons also transition to an intermediate state, which then subsequently relaxes to the T
1u
mode. We reason that the intermediate state could correspond to the near-in-energy Raman active E

g
mode, which is populated through a phonon scattering process. This proposed mechanism finds support in the observed dependence of the IR-inactive state’s population on the factors influencing phonon density of states, e.g., solvents. The significance of the Raman mode’s involvement emphasizes the importance of non-IR active modes in modifying chemical reactions and ultrafast molecular dynamics.

Employing Psychoacoustics in Sensory Archaeology: Developments at the Ancient Sanctuary of Zeus on Mount Lykaion
Authors: Jordan Pamela
Published: November 2023

Psychoacoustics offers a promising, subject-centred approach in unlocking the sonic experience of past built spaces. Its tools and metrics offer tempting responses to an essential challenge of sensory archaeology practice: the rendition of individual experience as data. How can one person’s experiences be compared with another’s towards generalized observations? Moreover, what can be said about past experience as a result? These questions are central to the ongoing acoustic consideration of the ancient sanctuary of Zeus on Mount Lykaion. Here the landscape that binds the sanctuary ruins offers noteworthy moments of sonic connectivity and isolation. Building on existing scholarship based on researcher perception, a sensory approach was developed to explore the site’s sonic relationships and ultimately determine what roles they could have played in original site usage, information beyond what the architecture and written record offers. Extensive site research uses first-hand sonic observation to frame a machine-based psychoacoustic analysis of binaural field recordings. Findings map out a sacred terrain of shared and singular experience orchestrated by sonic connectivity made available for further interpretation. They also underscore the necessity of caution in interpreting psychoacoustic findings themselves as an empathetic understanding of past people.
Analyzing Hate Speech Against Women on Instagram
Authors: Miranda Sandra Lopes
Published: November 2023

The popularization of digital technologies, such as social media, has driven remarkable changes in the way citizens participate in public life. On the one hand, they gave power to social actors, who began to act in a new media environment, with a considerable impact on the political and economic spheres. On the other hand, they laid the material foundations for the dissemination of hate speech against vulnerable groups and minorities. The present investigation has as its main objective to analyze the misogynistic hate narratives that are uttered in social media. For this purpose, a netnographic study was carried out, of the qualitative type, organized in three sequential moments: extraction, exploration/treatment, and content analysis of the data from the platform of the social network Instagram. The data highlighted from 74 profiles aligned with hate speech show, essentially, the presence of 40 publications, largely linked to extreme right-wing cultures with discursive and imagery manifestations of a misogynistic nature, highlighting the use of irony and the ridicule of women. The most offensive dimension of hate speech was measured in the comments of the followers of these publications, present in the form of insult and direct offense, confirming that the digital environment has aggravated hostility and online harassment against women.
On the two rhotic schwas in Southwestern Mandarin: when homophony meets morphology in articulation
Authors: Huang Jing , Hsieh Feng-fan , Chang Yueh-chin , Tiede Mark
Published: November 2023

This is an acoustic and articulatory study of the two rhotic schwas in Southwestern Mandarin (SWM), i.e., the er-suffix (a functional morpheme) and the rhotic schwa phoneme. Electromagnetic Articulography (EMA) and ultrasound results from 10 speakers show that the two rhotic schwas were both produced exclusively with the bunching of the tongue body. No retroflex versions of the two rhotic schwas were found, nor was retraction of the tongue root into the pharynx observed. On the other hand, the er-suffix and the rhotic schwa, though homophonous, significantly differ in certain types of acoustic and articulatory measurements. In particular, more pronounced lip protrusion is involved in the production of the rhotic schwa phoneme than in the er-suffix. It is equally remarkable that contrast preservation is not an issue because the two rhotic schwas are in complementary distribution. Taken together, the present results suggest that while morphologically-induced phonetic variation can be observed in articulation, gestural economy may act to constrain articulatory variability, resulting in the absence of retroflex tongue variants in the two rhotic schwas, the only two remaining r-colored sounds in SWM.
Co-Jumping of Treasury Yield Curve Rates
Authors: Baruník Jozef , Fišer Pavel
Published: November 2023

We study the role of co-jumps in the interest rate futures markets. To disentangle continuous part of quadratic covariation from co-jumps, we localize the co-jumps precisely through wavelet coefficients and identify statistically significant ones. Using high frequency data about U.S. and European yield curves we quantify the effect of co-jumps on their correlation structure. Empirical findings reveal much stronger co-jumping behavior of the U.S. yield curves in comparison to the European one. Further, we connect co-jumping behavior to the monetary policy announcements, and study effect of 103 FOMC and 119 ECB announcements on the identified co-jumps during the period from January 2007 to December 2017.
The Canonical and the Dynamic: A Model for Understanding Artistic Change in the 18th Dynasty
Authors: Wong Jun Yi
Published: November 2023

The 18th Dynasty of Egypt saw the introduction of various new artistic elements often described as ‘expressive’ or ‘naturalistic’. This development appears to have occurred within a short time span, and many of its details remain unclear. This article examines this phenomenon with particular focus on palace decorations from Tell el-Dab’a, Malqata and Amarna. The three sites display many artistic commonalities, despite the changes in temple decoration that occurred within the same period. It is proposed that this discrepancy reflects two separate strands of artistic development, namely (i) a canonical style predominantly found in religious and funerary contexts; and (ii) a ‘dynamic’ style that is epitomised by the palace decorations. Analyses are made regarding the development of the dynamic style, its influence on Amarna art, as well as the mechanism of its transmission.
Emlőrákkal, illetve mammográfiával kapcsolatos ismeretek és attitűdök felmérése
Authors:   ,   PTE ETK Egészségtudományi Doktori Iskola, Kissné Reményi Diána
Published: November 2023

A női populáció tekintetében az emlőrák foglalja el a vezető helyet incidencia, prevalencia és mortalitás esetében a Világon, Európában és Magyarországon egyaránt. Hazánkban 2001-ben vezették be a mammográfiás szűrést, mely során a 45-65 éves kor közötti tünetmentes nők kétévenkénti behívása történik. Ezen szűrés minőségi mutatói messze elmaradnak az uniós átlagtól, melyhez az esetleges információ- és tudáshiány is hozzájárul. Kutatásunk során három csoport (laikus nők, laikus férfiak, mammográfiás csoport) esetében mértük fel Baranya megyében élők ismereteit, attitűdjeit az emlőrákkal, valamint a mammográfiai szűrővizsgálattal kapcsolatban. Összességében kiemelendő, hogy a válaszadók ismeretei nem megfelelőek. A kitöltők ismeretbeli hiányosságai megmutatkoznak már a mammográfiai szűréssel kapcsolatos kérdések esetében. Bár a külföldi kutatások eredményeivel hazánk hasonlóságot mutat a mammográfiás szűrési irányelvek, az emlőönvizsgálattal kapcsolatos tudás, valamint az emlőrák gyógyíthatóságának tekintetében, az eredmények jóval elmaradnak a várttól. Nagy hiányosságok tapasztalhatók az emlőönvizsgálattal kapcsolatos életkor, vagy elvégzésének ideje esetében. Jobb eredményeket láthatunk a gyógyíthatóság, tünetmentesség, illetve gyakoriság esetében. Az emlőrák tüneteivel, és főleg kockázati tényezőivel kapcsolatos informáltság tekintetében az eredmények elkeserítőek. Pontosan ezen alacsony tudásszint miatt lényeges lenne az egyes információs csatornákon keresztül leginkább az emlődaganat tüneteinek, valamint a szűrővizsgálaton való részvétel hangsúlyozása.
Ordinary Moments
Authors: Mackinlay Elizabeth
Published: November 2023

This autoethnographic piece presents a series of “feminist notes from the academy” collected and fashioned while watching the ordinary moments of life in a contemporary Australian university pass by. The affective and feminist works of Virginia Woolf and Kathleen Stewart locate this article creatively and critically to document the “somethings” that happen day in and day out. The question asked by Virginia Woolf in 1943 in Three Guineas about the terms on which we have joined the academic procession of men are as relevant now as they were then, and each short autoethnographic note aims to bring sharply into view what it is we are against and what it is we stand for as feminists in the academy today. Niggling at the edges of this piece, however, is my positioning as a white-settler-colonial-cis-gendered-feminist woman in the academy, the relevancy of Virginia Woolf’s wondering and writing about the status of women through a different kind of feminist lens, and indeed, the capacity of autoethnography to get down to the roots of this dilemma as it is being played out in the fields of Gender Studies today.
Managing Identity When Worlds Collide
Authors: Cohoon Wesley D.
Published: November 2023

Stigma is a powerful social construct that fluctuates, yet it can stay with a person for their entire life. When someone moves from a stigmatized to a socially acceptable position, it creates tension between their social and personal identity. This article examines how stigma is internalized and presented in different contexts. The author utilizes autoethnography to explore how his family, socioeconomic class, criminal history, vocation, and religion intersect and impact how he manages and presents stigma. The author finds that his transition from a stigmatized identity leaves him in a liminal space where he does not belong to the new or old group. The significance of the study is that it offers insight into how people process and present stigma, which is helpful for rehabilitation and recovery.
Composing a Sense of Belonging
Authors: Díaz Estefanía , Bénard Silvia
Published: November 2023

This article narrates the long journey we have traveled in our attempts to feel part of a community. Using collaborative autoethnography, we trace the labyrinths we have traversed, first in academia and then in Al-Anon. After years of trying to develop a sense of belonging within university life and through the changes of residence that were associated with it, we both found ourselves in Al-Anon as we tried to cope with our family members. The seemingly unrelated paths in our lives came together as we realized that academic life—particularly in this contemporary neoliberal context—was often the very opposite of community building. At the same time, while we had initially attended Al-Anon in a desperate search for help with our loved ones, we unexpectedly learned that we were on the right path for becoming part of something. As a result of these experiences, both of us have developed a better sense of belonging as we have learned and practiced the Al-Anon principles and applied these principles to other areas of our lives, notably the university.
Remembering My Duniya
Authors: Kavoori Anandam
Published: November 2023

This autoethnographic place-based essay explores the ecological space the author grew up in the desert state of Gujarat, in western India.1 Simultaneously, it is also an exploration of the inner journey of discovery, joy, and belonging that a child enacts in discovering the outdoors, his /her/their Duniya,2 or to put it more formally, comes into an environmental consciousness. The essay is a contribution to autoethnographic scholarship in the evocative tradition, focused on the role of memory.3 Written in nonlinear story segments, the narrative mirrors the ways in which memories surface—fragmented, disconnected, nebulous but also (on occasion) brilliantly clear and saturated with the sensorial world in which they originate. End notes identify key readings from the fields of autoethnography,4 cultural anthropology,5 memoir writing,6 narrative nonfiction,7 and environmental studies8 that influenced the form, scope and intent of the stories.
Research Memories and Hauntings
Authors: McCloud Jennifer Sink
Published: November 2023

In this critical meta-authoethnography, the author returns to the site of an ethnography she conducted five years before in a U.S. high school. JanCarlos, then a fifteen-year-old student, had taken up the position of interviewer and asked the author about her experience of the April 16, 2007, school shootings at Virginia Tech. His question—“Were you there when that kid killed all of those people?”—disrupted traumatic memories. Because JanCarlos had experienced increasing trouble and bullying in school, the author shamefully wondered about his motives in asking about the violent event. In a published book chapter, she writes about the difficulties of the April 16 conversation, including her discomfort at losing control of the interview, as well as her fear, ignorance, and stereotypes about school violence and bullying. In the end, the conversation had transformed her research, inviting her to seek to establish vulnerable presence with participants, experience emotion as instructive, embrace remembering as research, interrogate power with intersectional analysis, and acknowledge limitations to knowledge production. Five years later, she returns to re-engage in conversation with JanCarlos. She layers more understandings to her previous analysis of the April 16 conversation, as well as gains insight into JanCarlos’s difficult school year, bullying, and home/community experiences. The author delves into personal and methodological concerns, concluding with how a critical autoethnographic method is a humanizing way to be more transparent about knowledge production.
Pronóstico de Precipitaciones Extremas en la Cuenca del Rı́o Mantaro - Aplicacion del Modelo Meteorológico WRF
Authors: Saavedra J. Miguel , Moya-Álvarez Aldo
Published: November 2023

In this study, the results were evaluated of the application of the meteorological model Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) in 103 days where extreme precipitation events (90th percentile) occurred within the Mantaro River basin. The WRF atmospheric model was used for four areas through nesting multiple, and spatial resolutions of 18, 6, 3 and 0.75 km, respectively, were obtained. Extreme precipitation forecasts were made and the effectiveness of the numerical outputs was evaluated, using observed data {\emph in-situ}, through the SENAMHI weather station network and satellite information. The values of statistical estimators show that the model tends to underestimate the rainfall data in many cases and overestimates it in others, having limitations in representing the spatial variability of the observed data. Accumulated precipitation satellite data always overestimates precipitation values, but has the ability to determine specific areas where extreme rainfall is likely to occur.

Nahdhatunnisa: Perempuan NU Perspektif Feminisme
Authors: Wahid Annisa
Published: November 2023

Terdapat tiga pilar yang harus diperjuangkan oleh perempuan. Pertama, al-hurriyah atau pembebasan (kemerdekaan). Perempuan harus memiliki dasar dan mental yang kuat untuk membebaskan diri terlebih dahulu. Bebas dari kejumudan, kebodohan, dan taqlid terhadap teks-teks yang mengurung untuk berzikir, berpikir, dan beramal shaleh lebih luas lagi. Kedua, al-adalah atau keadilan. Adil dari segi perkataan maupun perbuatan. Ketiga, musawah atau kesetaraan. Kesetaraan yang dimaksud di sini adalah kesetaraan hak untuk mendapatkan ruang serta akses publik untuk mengamalkan ilmu pengetahuan seluas-luasnya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi perspektif feminis yang sesuai untuk mendeskripsikan pemikiran perempuan NU yang ingin membebaskan diri dari kekerasan dan ketidakadilan. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode kepustakaan dengan menggunakan pendekatan sosial keagamaan dan dianalisis menggunakan teknik analisis kualitatif. Teori yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah teori Feminis postmodern dan model Carnivalesque dari Mikhail Bakhtin. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa ide-ide dalam feminis radikal ternyata lebih banyak memberikan ruang dalam menjelaskan fenomena pemikiran perempuan NU yang ingin melakukan pembebasan dan melakukan kebangkitan. Tidak kalah penting juga, dalam mewujudkan misi Nahdhatunnisa, perempuan NU harus melek dan cakap dalam dunia literasi. Sebab seseorang tidak dapat membendung perubahan monopoli zaman yang kerap disalahgunakan, kemudian juga harus turut andil dalam membendung isu-isu yang menggelembungkan ketidakharmonisan Islam dan Indonesia.

Di dalam artikel ini membahas isu gender, perkawinan, keluarga, poligami, kekerasan terhadap perempuan, hak waris, dan perceraian dalam rumah tangga, sehingga dibahasnya isu tersebut dapat melahirkan suatu kedamaian dan keadilan. Sebagaimana Islam datang membawa perdamaian, agama Islam adalah agama penyempurna dan agama yang indah, karena segala sesuatu yang terjadi dalam kehidupan manusia untuk terciptanya kemenangan, baik pada kehidupan di akhirat maupun di dunia. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk memahami, menyikapi, dan memberikan jalan keluar terhadap isu-isu yang terjadi pada Gender dalam menciptakan suatu keadilan dalam Islam. Pada penelitian ini, menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dengan menggunakan teknik pengumpulan data yaitu studi pustaka (literature review) dan menggunakan pendekatan tinjauan analisis deskriptif dalam membahas Islam dan Gender. Menariknya dalam artikel ini adalah menampilkan Islam sebagai agama yang “memanusiakan manusia”, karena Islam selalu menghargai segala sesuatunya terutama dalam persoalan isu gender dan hak-hak lainnya yang terdapat di dalam Al-Qur’an, yang bertujuan sebagai jalan keluar untuk bisa menjadi tolok ukur dalam mewujudkan keadilan, kesejahteraan, dan perdamaian bagi sesama. Kemudian hasil dari penelitian ini adalah jalan keluar atas setiap masing-masing isu-isu tersebut sudah ada di dalam Al-Qur’an. Namun, penyelesaian jalan keluarnya memiliki perbedaan corak khasnya masing-masing terhadap isu yang satu dengan isu yang lainnya. Akan tetapi, perbedaan corak khas jalan keluar tersebut berpusat kepada satu esensi yang sama yaitu Islam pada akhirnya untuk mewujudkan kedamaian, keadilan, dan kesejahteraan.

Authors: Ghoni Abdul , Rusmana Dadan
Published: November 2023

Penelitian ini berawal dari adanya kebiasaan atau kegiatan yang dilakukan oleh Jamaah Satria Nusantara Japura Cirebon, bahwasanya setiap manusia itu memiliki kekuatan supranatural jika dipadukan kekuatan tersebut dengan ayat-ayat Al-Qur’an yang kita percayai bahwa Al-Qur’an memiliki sejuta kemanfaatan sehingga yang memiliki ilmu supranatural tersebut dapat menggunakan dengan baik seperti mengobati orang dari sihir, menjadikan pertahanan diri dll. Mohammad Daudah menyatakan dalam sebuah karyanyanya berjudul‚ “Energi Penyembuh dalam Al-Qur’an antara sain dan keyakinan” menurutnya suara Al-Qur’an dapat menghentikan pergerakan virus dan kuman, dan pada waktu yang bersamaan meningkatkan sel-sel sehat dan membangkitkan program yang terkacaukan di dalamnya agar siap bertempur melawan virus dan kuman. Tambahnya, bacaan al-Qur’an memiliki efek yang sangat luar biasa terhadap sel-sel dan dapat mengembalikan keseimbangan. Penelitian Living Qur`an dalam Tesis ini membahas tentang tradisi (amalan rutin) pembacaan penggalan ayat-ayat Al-Qur`an yang dilahirkan dari praktik komunal sebagai bentuk dari respon sosial masyarakat atau komunitas tertentu terhadap Al-Qur`an. Hasil dilapangan menunjukkan, latar belakang pelaksanaan kegiatan tersebut adalah agar mendapat perlindungan dari Allah swt dan terhindar dari segala macam dan bentuk gangguan-gangguan. Pemaknaan dari pembacaan amalan Q.s. Ali Imran ayat 190-196 itu sendiri adalah agar hati menjadi tentram dan damai. Salah satu manfaat amalan ini adalah untuk mengobati diri sendiri dan orang yang membutuhkan. Selain itu manfaat yang ada pada amalan ini bisa menenangkan hati dan semakin dekat dengan Allah SWT.

Authors: Romdhoni Fathur , Rahman Mohammad Taufiq
Published: November 2023

Penelitian ini bertujuan membahas jemaah Persis dalam mengubah tindakan keagamaan pada kehidupan sosialnya terutama jemaah Persis di Tasikmalaya, Jawa Barat. Metode penelitian dalam penelitian ini ialah kualitatif, melalui pengumpulan data dengan teknik observasi, wawancara, dan kajian literatur. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat perubahan praktik sosial keagamaan yang sebelumnya tidak mengikuti tahlilan yang merupakan tradisi, sekarang mengikuti tahlilan, dan juga ziarah kubur. Kemudian adanya juga perubahan kultural dari cara komunikasi, yang semula tertutup menjadi terbuka. Faktor penyebab perubahan itu ialah lingkungan yang membuat jemaah berubah dari kebiasaan Persis sebelumnya, di mana semula Persis beribadah sesuai dengan masjidnya sendiri, dengan perkembangan jaman sekarang, Persis mulai beribadah ke mesjid diluar lembaga sendiri. Bahkan lebih uniknya, perubahan tersebut membuat umat Persis merasa nyaman dan damai ketika berinteraksi atau berubah kultural yang berbeda dari sebelumnya. Penelitian ini menemukan temuan baru bahwa dalam organisasi masyarakat keagamaan sekalipun tetap mengalami perubahan sesuai dengan perkembangan zaman. Persis memiliki perubahan dengan tidak sadar merubah umatnya sendiri yang juga disebabkan karena kurangnya pengawasan dari lembaga atau luasnya perkembangan pemikiran, nilai dari luar masuk ke dalam jemaah Persis.
Pasal-Pasal Kontroversial dalam RKUHP 2019 Ditinjau dari Pembaharuan Hukum
Authors: Afwan Deri , Kania Dede , Rusman Rusman
Published: November 2023

Indonesia merupakan negara demokrasi, dimana seharusnya Rancangan Undang-Undang KUHP dibuat sesuai dengan konteks pada masa kini. Hal tersebut dimaksudkan agar perbuatan- perbuatan yang dilarang dan tidak dilarang sesuai dengan zaman yang berkembang pada masa sekarang. Pengaturan atas asas legalitas yang dikecualikan atau lebih tepatnya dipanggil dalam RKUHP, secara tidak langsung melahirkan permasalahan-permasalahan dalam penegakan hukum pidana (Pasal-Pasal Kontroversional). Lalu yang menjadi pokok permasalahan bagaimana jika ada multitafsir terhadap penerapan pasal-pasal kontroversial tersebut serta kemudian disalahgunakan oleh oknum aparat penegak hukum. Padahal jika kita tinjau ciri produk hukum yang tepat adalah produk hukum yang maknanya disepakati tunggal (monotafsir) dan tidak membuka ruang adanya tafsir lain. Tetapi, kenyataannya produk hukum atau undang- undang saat ini berawal dari potensi dan kinerja DPR yang patut dipertanyakan sebagai perwakilan yang menyuarakan aspirasi rakyat.

Published: November 2023

Belakangan ini banyak pandangan mengenai tradisi yang dianggap praktik kolot dan sudah ketinggalan zaman sekali. Padahal tradisi dan kearifan lokal merupakan adat dan kebiasaan yang masih eksis sampai saat ini. Banyak fenomena menarik mengenai tradisi kearifan lokal yang dapat bersinergi dalam merawat dan menjaga kerukunan umat beragama. Oleh karena itu, penulis tertarik untuk meneliti tradisi yang mengandung nilai kerukunan yang terdapat di Kampung Kapitan Palembang, Sumatera Selatan. Kampung ini merupakan kampung yang terdiri dari masyarakat yang majemuk dan heterogen tetapi dapat hidup rukun berdampingan, dan melakukan kegiatan aktivitas bersama. Ada berbagai macam tradisi yang ada pada Kampung Kapitan salah satunya yaitu tradisi sedekah kampung. Metode penelitian yang digunakan yaitu metode kualitatif-dekriptif dengan model penelitian lapangan. Pengumpulan datanya terdiri dari teknik observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Temuan dari penelitian ialah terdapat beberapa macam jenis bentuk kerukunan yang terjadi di Kampung Kapitan yaitu kerukunan antar intern umat masing-masing satu agama dengan bentuk ukhuwah islamiah dan kerukunan antar umat yang berbeda agama dengan bentuk toleransi. Pelaksanaan sedekah kampung telah menumbuhkan sikap kebersamaan dan kekeluargaan yang memiliki dampak positif terhadap menumbuhnya sikap kerukunan dan keharmonisan. Beberapa faktor penyebab terjaganya kerukunan umat beragama yaitu adanya sifat toleransi, menghargai kebebasan beragama, menghargai umat agama lain dan berfikir secara positif. Keempat unsur tersebut sangat relevan dalam merawat serta menjaga kerukunan umat beragama di Kampung Kapitan.

Authors: Rohendi Leon , Shamsu Lilly Suzana Binti Haji
Published: November 2023

Mernissi merupakan seorang feminis Muslim Maroko yang dikenal memberikan kontribusi penting dalam menganalisis dan mengkritisi norma-norma patriarkal dalam Islam, serta mengadvokasi peran perempuan dalam masyarakat Muslim. Karena itu, pemahaman dan interpretasi Mernissi tentang teks-teks agama serta analisisnya tentang peran perempuan dalam sejarah dan masyarakat Muslim menjadi tujuan penelitian dalam artikel ini. Pembahasan artikel mencakup tinjauan tentang pemikiran Mernissi mengenai konstruksi gender dalam Islam, kritiknya terhadap patriarki dalam tradisi keagamaan, dan upayanya untuk memperjuangkan kesetaraan gender melalui reinterprestasi ajaran agama. Artikel ini juga menggambarkan bagaimana pemikiran Mernissi relevan dengan konteks Islam, sebagai upaya untuk mendorong inklusivitas, keadilan gender, dan pemberdayaan perempuan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode analisis kualitatif dengan mempelajari karya-karya Mernissi yang berfokus pada tema gender dan agama. Dalam pemikirannya Mernissi menyatakan bahwa perbedaan antara laki-laki dan perempuan adalah sebuah keniscayaan (sunnatullah) dan akan terus muncul. Akan tetapi, perbedaan tersebut harus dalam batas-batas normatif tanpa menanggalkan hak asasi manusia yang melekat, ataupun terhadap norma Agama. Melalui analisis terhadap karya Mernissi, artikel ini menyimpulkan bahwa pemikiran Mernissi memberikan landasan yang kuat bagi gerakan feminis Muslim dan dapat menjadi sumber inspirasi untuk mempromosikan kesetaraan gender dalam dunia Islam.
Tantangan Peran Wanita dalam Demokrasi di Masa Sekarang dan Yang Akan Datang
Authors: Winarti Rinni
Published: November 2023

Sekarang masalah feminisme banyak bermunculan, baik di media maupun melalui seminar-seminar membahas isu-isu perempuan dan gender seperti hubungan yang setara, kesehatan reproduksi, hingga ketimpangan gender di berbagai sektor. Sehingga penulis merasa penting untuk mengambil tema ini sebagai pilihan pembahasan yang dituangkan dalam sebuah penelitian. Perselisihan gerakan feminisme dan anti-feminsme menuntut hak perempuan dalam persamaan tersebar luas dibanyak negara di dunia termasuk Indonesia dan Jerman. Feminisme adalah gerakan yang berfokus pada perjuangan hak-hak perempuan dan kesetaraan gender. Feminisme adalah serangkaian gerakan sosial, politik, dan ideologi yang memiliki tujuan yang sama, yaitu untuk mencapai kesetaraan gender di berbagai aspek kehidupan, termasuk politik, ekonomi, pribadi, dan sosial. Gerakan ini berangkat dari pemahaman bahwa masyarakat cenderung memprioritaskan perspektif laki-laki dan bahwa perempuan seringkali diperlakukan secara tidak adil dalam masyarakat tersebut. Penelitian ini membahas gerakan anti feminisme, yang muncul sebagai tanggapan terhadap perkembangan gerakan feminisme di Indonesia dan Jerman dalam beberapa dekade terakhir. Studi penelitian memilih negara Inonesia dan Jerman, karena gerakan anti feminism di Indonesia mewakili dari kaum muslim, dan Jerman mewakili dari kaum liberal. Gerakan anti feminisme mengkritik gagasan-gagasan feminis dan berusaha untuk menentang perubahan sosial yang diusulkan oleh gerakan feminisme. Ketidaksetujuan mereka bukan tanpa alasan, karena konsep feminisme dianggap sebagai hal yang kontroversial dan melanggar hubungan alami antara laki-laki dan perempuan. Penelitian ini akan mengeksplorasi akar penyebab gerakan anti-feminisme, argumen-argumen yang dikemukan oleh para pendukungnya, tantangan yang dihadapi oleh gerakan feminism, serta implikasi sosial dan politik dari gerakan anti-feminisme.
