Published: September 2024

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the primary causes that prompt most Bangladeshi individuals to seek medical care overseas. Methodology: A standardized questionnaire was designed for this study, and data were collected from 160 participants. Data were collected using online and offline surveys. Descriptive and regression analyses were then performed. We conducted an ANOVA test, correlation analysis on independent variables (psychological factors, social factors, economic factors), paired t-test for hypothesis testing, and crosstab analysis on age, gender, and education using SPSS software. Findings: This study revealed that Economic and social aspects are the primary factors driving Bangladeshi individuals to seek medical care overseas. Economic considerations have a more significant influence on Bangladeshi individuals’ decisions to seek medical care abroad than social considerations. Practical Implications: The findings of this study can aid policymakers and healthcare experts in the Bangladeshi government in recognizing areas that require renovation in the healthcare system, with the objective of discouraging the practice of outbound medical tourism. Originality/Value: This research supports Bangladeshi stereotypes regarding overseas treatment, and will assist in addressing medical tourism issues in Bangladesh. Research Limitations: This study may boost Bangladeshi medical businesses. However, inadequate disclosure and limited public data hindered this research. After the COVID-19 epidemic, medical tourism has increased. The current scenario may differ in coming years.

Published: September 2024

The current study focuses on assessing the efficiency of a natural treatment unit that uses tamarind flakes, sawdust, Tulsi, and fragmented bricks to eradicate fluoride in water. The study aims to determine the optimal conditions for fluoride removal in water using these natural materials and to appraise the effectiveness of the treatment unit. The study involves laboratory experiments using synthetic water sample with known fluoride concentration of 18.4mg/L. The natural treatment unit was constructed using tamarind flakes, sawdust, Tulsi and fragmented brick in different containers. Two different treatment setups of 1mtr and 1.5mtr height for each natural material was made. The known concentration of synthetic water was passed through the treatment unit with two different discharges 10ml/min and 20ml/min and the fluoride was measured in effluent using a fluoride ion-selective electrode method. The study also investigates the effect of several factors on the efficiency of fluoride removal, including the contact time of water to natural materials in the treatment unit. The optimal conditions for fluoride removal were determined by varying these factors and measuring the resulting fluoride removal efficiencies. It was found that fluoride removal efficiency of 90.7% for fragmented brick followed by tamarind (61.5%), Tulsi (50.5%) and sawdust (84.02%) in 1.5mtr treatment unit. While 1mtr thickness setup showed 83.1% for fragmented bricks, tamarind (50.5%), Tulsi (35.3%) and sawdust (75%). It is clearly revealed that fragmented brick manifested high efficiency and least by Tulsi. Further Fragmented brick with other three natural materials also been examined as combination of treatment unit. In this combinations brick with saw dust has found highest efficiency of 80.6% and least with Brick and Tulsi of 60.1%. Overall, the study provides valuable insights into the potential of natural materials for fluoride removal in water and the feasibility of using a natural treatment unit for providing safe drinking water in fluoride-affected areas.
Reinterpretasi Muhammad Shahrur dalam Konsep: "Lā Ikrāha fī al-Dīn"
Authors: Hanif Imam Padhlurrahman
Published: September 2024

Muhammad Shahrur is one of the contemporary mufasirs who uses a linguistic approach in his interpretations. Among them is his interpretation of the concept that there is no compulsion in Islam (Lā Ikrāha Fī al-Dīn). The concept discusses the meaning of freedom, starting from the misunderstanding of some people in interpreting freedom, as well as their confusion in carrying out commands or prohibitions, especially in religion, whether they live it out of obedience or compulsion. For this reason, Shahrur examines the meaning of freedom from the perspective of a Muslim in the Qur'an and a modern scholar with a more moderate understanding. Because freedom is the most important essence for human beings to live their lives, as well as the greatest gift that Allah has given to human beings. Therefore, everything that contradicts or can even deprive human beings of their rights to freedom must be rejected, so that human beings can live their lives in full freedom.

Terekenin Tamamının veya Tereke Mallarının Bazılarının Üzerindeki Elbirliği Pay Sahipliğinin Paylı Hak Sahipliğine Dönüştürülmesi
Authors: Yıldırır Efe Can
Published: September 2024

Mirasın paylaşılması kadar yoğun karşılaşılmasa da terekenin tamamının veya malvarlığı değerlerinin bazılarının paylı hak sahipliğine dönüştürülmesi yargı kararlarına sıklıkla konu olan bir miras ortaklığı sona erme sebebidir. Birlikte hak sahipliğinin dönüştürülmesine taraflar yapacakları bir sözleşme yoluyla karar verebilecekleri gibi -kaynak İsviçre Medenî Kanunu’ndan farklı olarak- dava yoluyla da bu sona ermeyi sağlayabilirler. Bu çalışmanın konusu, esasen hem mirasçıların yapacakları bir sözleşme yoluyla hem de TMK m. 644 uyarınca mirasçılardan birinin bu yönde açacağı dava yoluyla terekenin tamamını veya bir kısmını paylı hak sahipliğine dönüştürülmesidir. Elbirliği ortaklığının sona ermesine ilişkin genel ilkelerin açıklanmasından sonra ilk olarak paylı hak sahipliğine dönüştürme sözleşmesi ele alınacaktır. Bu hukuki işlemin şekli ve içeriği, hem kuramsal hem de uygulama bakımından oldukça önem taşımaktadır. Özellikle paylı hak sahipliğine dönüştürmenin mirasın paylaşılması ile özdeş olup olmadığı bağlamında geçerlilik şekline tabi olup olmadığı ve sözleşme serbestisi uyarınca hangi paylı hak sahipliğine dönüştürme kurgularının ortaya çıkabileceğinin incelendiği bu bölümden sonra TMK m. 644 uyarınca terekenin tamamının veya bir kısmının dava yoluyla paylı hak sahipliğine dönüştürülmesi ele alınacaktır. Bu davanın şartları ile kararın içeriği ve etkisine yönelik yüksek mahkeme kararlarının detaylı şekilde incelendiği bu bölümde miras ortaklığının diğer sona erme sebebi mirasın paylaşılması ile de yer yer bağlantı kurulacaktır. Son olarak da Kadastro Kanunu’nun Ek 3. maddesi uyarınca idari işlem yoluyla terekedeki taşınmazlar üzerindeki elbirliği hak sahipliğinin paylı hak sahipliğine dönüştürülmesi, hükmün isabeti de tartışılarak, değerlendirilecektir.

The denotation and use of us and them have been used in various political discourses to either assimilate or alienate groups of people. Numerous political leaders have used both pronouns in their online narratives throughout different social media platforms in an effort to gain political mileage. This study aims to explore the notion of positive self-representation of us and the negative representation of them with the focus on the lexicon “kita” and “mereka” that influences public perception. The study is a phenomenological qualitative study that applied van Dijk’s critical discourse analysis method and the theory of ideological square. Samples were taken from Tan Sri Muhyiddin bin Md Yassin’s online live Wesak Day speech on May 6, 2020, and a speech by Dato’ Sri Ismail Sabri bin Yaakob in the 14th Parliamentary seating on July 18, 2022. The study applied a micro-level analysis of both lexicons. It can be concluded that both speeches have extremely different connotations and interpretations that are both favourable and unfavourable to both politicians.

Research-Based Policy Brief for Enhancing the Seaweed Production in the Selected Municipalities of Tawi-Tawi
Authors: Halun Zulfikarl B.
Published: September 2024

Seaweed production in the Philippines is vital for economic growth, environmental sustainability, and social development, particularly in coastal regions like Tawi-Tawi. However, the industry in Tawi-Tawi faces significant challenges due to weak policy implementation. This study aims to enhance seaweed production in selected municipalities of Tawi-Tawi by proposing a research-based policy brief. Utilizing a sequential mixed-method approach, the study involved 180 purposively selected seaweed farmers. Data were collected through semi-structured open-ended questionnaires, aligned with BTA Bill 196, and analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The findings revealed that policy implementation in Tawi-Tawi's seaweed industry is only slightly effective, with a mean score of 2.51. Major challenges include inadequate infrastructure, poor growth environments, and insufficient processing technology, all exacerbated by weak policy enforcement. The study identified a critical gap in current policies, particularly the lack of IT infrastructure to manage transactions, which emerged as a key issue. Consequently, the study concludes that the current policy framework is not fully effective and requires significant improvement, as such a policy brief is proposed.
A Diagnostic Accountability of the Proportional Contribution Rate of Extent of Biophysical Processes of Desertification and the Landscape Changes in the Drylands of North Eastern Zone of Nigeria
Authors: Ndabula Christopher , Oyatayo Kehinde Taofik , Jidauna Godwill G.
Published: September 2024

So much in literature has been reported on the complex nature of desertification processes, and extents, but very little is known about the proportional contribution rate of these processes in a given landscape and hence the ultimate aim of this study. RS/GIS change detection techniques was employed in the landscape change analysis. The natural jenks classification in the spatial analyst tool in ArGIS was used to evaluate and map the landscape sensitivity areas. Twelve specific indicators representing specific processes and effects were analysed and three aggregated to represent four types of landscape; vegetation, soil, hydro-geomorphic and micro-climatic. A total of 8923km2 (29%) of the Vegetation landscape showed either positive or negative changes in vegetation cover. Low sensitivity areas contributed the highest (40.2%), followed by very high (4.6%), moderate (2.6%) and very low (2.5%) of vegetation degradation. 50% of the landscape recorded vegetation degradation while the other 50% recorded regeneration of vegetation. A very large extent (70.5%) of the soil landscape experienced either positive or negative soil changes. Soil degradation was contributed by Moderate (26.4%), High (17.8%, Low (5%) sensitivity landscapes. About 50% of the soil landscape revealed various forms of degradation. Only a small extent of the hydro-geomorphic landscape (7.8%) of the landscape underwent changes either positive (degradation) or negative (recovery). Out of this extent the very high sensitivity class contributed 32.1%, while moderate (14.5%) and Very Low (3.4%) of degradation. The pattern of contributions of changes in extents in the micro-climatic landscape indicated only a small extent of the landscape (9.6%). The high sensitivity landscape alone contributed 31.6% of the areas that observed degradation, followed by very high (10.1%) and Moderate (8.3%), this put together a total of 50% of the landscape recorded degradation.
Thinking Medium: A Design-based Critique of Nudge Theory
Authors:   Parsons School of Design, New York City, USA, Marcelle Lawrence , Robb Matthew ,   Parsons School of Design, New York City, USA
Published: September 2024

Mainstream economic thought rests on a picture of human actors as rational, calculating, and selfish. Since the 1980’s, the sub-discipline of behavioral economics has challenged mainstream economic thought by revealing limitations in the ordinary person’s ability to reason as orthodox theory predicts. People’s choices are influenced by the manner in which options are presented. And since many of the choices people make involve basic dimensions of moral life, including the chooser’s autonomy and general welfare, the structuring of choice situations is an irreducibly ethical enterprise. These topics are explored in “nudge theory,” which represents an attempt to understand the implications of behavioral economics for people involved in the shaping of others’ decisions. Nudge theory proposes that professional designers should structure choice situations on behalf of others in a paternalistic way: leveraging the designers’ expertise and superior knowledge to promote outcomes that serve choosers’ long-term interests. In this paper, the co-authors agree that paternalism can be a valid approach to ethical design practice in a limited range of cases. But in general, the program of “libertarian paternalism” advocated by nudge theorists represents a failure of imagination that arbitrarily forecloses opportunities for collective decision-making and reinforces unhealthy social divisions. Instead, a greater sensitivity to the potential of design thinking, specifically its capacity to incorporate a wide range of heterogeneous factors and perspectives, is a key to the ethical deployment of nudges. Design itself is the best answer to the question: how can economic thought register the results of the behavioral sciences in a thoughtful, creative, and defensible way? Through a series of examples drawn from the literature, the co-authors present a design-based critique of nudge theory, illustrating the interdisciplinary potential of design and aspects of the role design thinking may play in creating more harmonious and unified societies.
The spatial impact of international reconstruction aid in the aftermath of the 2015 Gorkha earthquake
Authors: Karmakar Ipshita
Published: September 2024

The 2015 Gorkha earthquake in Nepal caused significant property and life loss, triggering a large influx of international reconstruction aid. This paper investigates the spatial implications of this international aid, particularly in Lalitpur. It examines how aid from NGOs and bilateral and multilateral agencies affects urban spaces, including rent, land values, and infrastructure distribution. The study focuses on Wards hosting aid projects and personnel and compares these to earthquake-affected Wards without aid presence as a counterfactual.Two key points emerge: 1) The clustering of aid organization headquarters (operational presence) creates negative externalities, favoring a rentier class over equitable distribution of housing and infrastructure. 2) Aid-funded reconstruction projects (project presence) shift amenities and businesses, accelerating inequity in ways distinct from operational presence. Two Wards in Lalitpur show notable negative impacts, including rising rents, changes in small businesses, and a shift towards catering to the rentier class due to the effects of aid.The research provides policy recommendations for local governments and disaster management authorities in Nepal to address these unequal impacts. Recommendations include monitoring and evaluating aid effects over time, collaboration, and the promotion of transparency in urban development and fiscal resilience.

ԱՐՏԱՀԱՅՏՄԱՆ ԵՎ ԸՆԿԱԼՄԱՆ ՄԻՋՈՑՆԵՐ / SUBTEXT AND ALLUSION AS THE MEANS OF EXPRESSING AND COMPREHENDING INTENTIONAL IMPLICITNESS
Authors: Manukyan Narine
Published: September 2024

In this paper, we study intentional subtext and allusion in speech, referring to the characteristics of their expression and the nature and peculiarities of their manifestation as two main means of expression and comprehension of intentional implicitness. Our words express our ideas, thoughts, goals, and intentions, which, in the case of face-to-face conversations, are also embodied in cross-linguistic means; thus, the study also covers the phonetic aspects of verbalization of speech such as intonation and diction and extralinguistic means like gestures and mimics, etc.

In terms of studies over comprehension of intentional implicitness, the concepts of “personal implicitness” and “speech implicitness” are observed to cover the intentionality and unintentionality of speakers. The development and the process of dialogue are directly connected to the right or wrong, complete or partial, perception of the meaning of the speech. So, we can say that the comprehension of the speakers gives meaning to the dialogue and provides its development, thus proving, that each word is the logical continuation of the previous word, expression, or sentence.

In this paper, we also focus on some methods for covering the implicit meaning of the speech. Among them, special attention is paid to repetition, clarifying questions, expressing emotions, etc.
