Неолитические материалы с памятника «Няксимвольская стоянка»: предварительные итоги изучения
Authors:   Музей Природы и Человека, А.В. Шмидт
Published: March 2021

Археологические памятники «Городище Няксимволь-1» и «поселение Няксимволь-2» (Березовский район Ханты-Мансийского автономного округа) расположены практически вплотную друг к другу. Длительное время неолитический материал с этих объектов рассматривался как единый комплекс – так называемая «Няксимвольская стоянка». Однако более детальный сравнительный анализ каменного инвентаря показал, что для Няксимволя-1 характерно пластинчатое микролитическое расщепление, а для Няксимволя-2 – получение отщепов и работа с крупными формами. Кроме этого, отличается используемое каменное сырье. Керамический комплекс также несет на себе существенные различия. На Няксимволе-1 посуда орнаментирована гребенчатым штампом. Для соседнего памятника характерны наколы и прочерченные линии. Отличается и внутренний наплыв. На Няксимволе-2 он менее рельефный. Полученные результаты свидетельствуют, что неолитические комплексы обоих объектов имеют между собой ощутимый хронологический разрыв.

На памятнике Тартас-1 (лесостепное Обь-Иртышье) выделено шесть ям со следами дегтекуренного производства. По данным радиоуглеродного датирования костных остатков травоядного животного (Ovis/Capra) и рыбы яма 42 отнесена к раннему бронзовому веку (XXX– XXVIII вв. до н.э.). Все ямы расположены у края террасы, имеют округлый контур, размеры 1,34–1,9×1,22–1,75 м, глубину – 0,59–1,1 м. В них фиксируется специфические заполнение, а также следы термического воз- действия на стенках, дне и в заполнении сооружений. Приведены опубликованные аналогии смолокуренных комплексов периода Средневековья и экспериментальные данные этноархеологических реконструкций дегтекуренного процесса. Предложена реконструкция способа ямного дегтекурения на материале памятника Тартас-1. Предложена интерпретация как дегтекуренного комплекса аналогичного сооружения с поселения елунинской культуры Березовая Лука (Лесостепной Алтай). Выдвинута гипотеза, о развитии дегтекурения в связи с распространением скотоводства в регионе.
К вопросу о выделении разливского этапа окуневской культуры
Authors:   Институт истории материальной культуры РАН, А.В. Поляков
Published: March 2021

В статье излагаются новые данные, подтверждающие обоснованность выделения позднего разливского этапа окуневской культуры. На сегодняшний день к нему могут быть отнесены три кургана: Черновая-XI, Разлив-X и курган №1 могильника Итколь-II. Их объединяет серия уникальных признаков, характеризующих особенности этого периода. Наиболее яркие из них – появление традиции посмертной трепанации черепов в затылочной части, следы которой отмечены у подавляющего большинства погребенных, включая детей, и изображения на плитах в стиле «тощих быков». Кроме того, в погребениях отмечается обилие ритуальных предметов, а также уменьшение до минимума числа бытовых вещей, в первую очередь керамики. Стеатитовые «головки» и костяные пластинки с изображениями несколько видоизменяются и тоже помогают в обособлении этого хронологического горизонта. Возможно, такое же значение имеют захоронения «шкур» быков в небольших каменных ящичках внутри ограды, ближе к восточной стенке. На основании двух радиоуглеродных дат из этих курганов разливский этап окуневской культуры предварительно можно датировать XIX–XVIII вв. до н.э.

Published: March 2021

С накоплением археологических материалов давно опубликованные случайные находки приобретают новое значение. Это относится и к металлическому топору, который хранится в Музее археологии и этнографии Сибири им. В.М. Флоринского Томского государственного университета. В статье осуществлена его идентификация и дана краткая история изучения, а также впервые отражена всесторонняя демонстрация в виде фотоснимков и графических прорисовок. Кроме этого, уточнены и дополнены отдельные сведения, а также приведен круг ближайших аналогий, которые позволяют определить культурно-хронологический контекст топора. Имеющаяся к настоящему времени сводка вислообушных топоров дает возможность очертить ареал их распространения и рассматривать причины зафиксированной ситуации. Перспективными являются определение состава сплавов этих металлических изделий, реконструкция технологии их изготовления и вариантов использования.
Украшения-реплики в реконструкции костюма населения Верхнего Приобья эпохи раннего железа
Authors:   Алтайский государственный педагогический университет, Н.Н. Головченко
Published: March 2021

Статья освещает результаты использования украшений-реплик при создании обобщенных гипотетических фото-натурных реконструкций костюма населения Верхнего Приобья 2-й половины I тыс. до н.э. В качестве прототипов для реплик послужили наиболее яркие находки из Новотроицких курганов – золотое изображение лошади с вывернутым крупом, поясная пряжка со сценой терзания, гешировая плакетка и элементы поясной фурнитуры. Реплики данных изделий были использованы в качестве составляющих реконструируемых наборных поясов. Применение реплик в археологической реконструкции костюма обладает рядом плюсов с точки зрения образовательной, туристической и популяризационной составляющих, связанных главным образом с их репрезентативными возможностями, но в то же время имманентно несет в себе ряд качеств (несоответствие материала и технологии изготовления оригиналу), отрицательно сказывающихся на научной характеристике создаваемых образов.
Кыпчаки и южно-таежное Прииртышье (конец X – XIV в.)
Authors:   Радиозавод им. А.С. Попова, Б.А. Коников
Published: March 2021

В статье анализируется роль кочевников Казахстана и Алтая в этнокультурных процессах, протекавших в южно-таежном Прииртышье в конце Х – ХIV в. Проникновение туда предметов тюркского вида началось, по меньшей мере, с эпохи Второго Тюркского каганата (могильник Окунево-III на р. Тара). В течение VII–Х в. лесостепная часть Омского Прииртышья была зоной постоянных контактов кочевников – тюрков и южно-хантыйского и, возможно, самодийского населения, т.е. фронтиром. В конце I – начале II тыс. процессы ассимиляции лесостепным и южно-таежным южно-хантыйским населением степных пришельцев и параллельно тюркизация какой-то части аборигенов обрели осязаемые черты. Однако до ХIII и, возможно, до начала ХIV в. южно-таежное Прииртышье не было северной провинцией сросткинской культуры, как считают омские исследователи С.Ф. Татауров и С.С. Тихонов (2019); присутствие предметов вооружения, поясной гарнитуры и конского снаряжения степного облика в южно-таежных памятниках объясняется в основном, торговлей и результатами военных столкновений (трофеями). Только с появлением в степях монголов (ХIII в.) движение кыпчаков в сторону южно-таежного Прииртышья приобретает археологически выраженный характер.

Статья посвящена введению в научный оборот и интерпретации серии костяных (роговых) цурок (застежек пут для сдвуноживания или стреноживания коня) из объектов жужанского времени погребально-поминального комплекса Чобурак-I (Чемальский район Республики Алтай). Представлено морфологическое описание шести находок, обнаруженных в трех мужских захоронениях с лошадью (курганы №30, 30а, 31). Данные предметы отнесены к двум типам изделий. Определен круг аналогий подобным находкам из археологических объектов обозначенного региона и сопредельных территорий. Установлено, что материалы некрополя Чобурак-I впервые демонстрируют сосуществование у населения Алтая на заключительном этапе развития булан-кобинской культуры (2-я половина IV – V в. н.э.) костяных (роговых) цурок с разным оформлением петли для ремня – с сомкнутой и несомкнутой прорезью. Публикуемые материалы расширяют источниковую базу для изучения эволюции амуниции лошади у народов Азии на рубеже поздней древности и раннего Средневековья.
Методологические проблемы российской исторической науки и образования (к 75-летию Юрия Федоровича Кирюшина)
Authors:   Кемеровский государственный университет, А.И. Мартынов , Р.Д. Мещерский ,   Кемеровский государственный университет
Published: March 2021

В статье акцентируется внимание на процессах кризиса науки и образования в настоящее время. Влияние формационной теории европоцентризма в объяснении исторического процесса. Преимущественное изложение отечественными учебниками истории формационного подхода: первобытное общество, рабовладельческое, феодально-капиталистическое. Изучение истории начинается с Древнего Востока, Греции и Рима. Учащиеся не получают никаких знаний о древней истории своей страны, уникальных памятниках археологии. Формируется поколение, имеющее недостаточное представление об историческом и археологическом прошлом собственной страны. Ставится вопрос об оценке отечественной археологии как фундаментальной исторической науки. Отмечается непонимание особой миссии археологии в нашей стране. Россия – евразийская страна, обладающая самой большой в мире территорией с огромным количеством памятников всех археологических периодов. Задача отечественной археологии несколько другая, чем в любой европейской стране, а наша приверженность объяснения некоторых фактов с помощью старых концепций приводит к непониманию некоторых особенностей цивилизационного развития на евразийском пространстве.
Петроглифы памятника Уцзячуань в Китае и их сибирские и центральноазиатские аналогии тюркского времени
Authors:   Новосибирский государственный университет, А.В. Варенов
Published: March 2021

На памятнике наскального искусства Уцзячуань в уезде Цзинъюань пров. Ганьсу (КНР) шесть всадников и один стоящий человек показаны в головных уборах, напоминающих корону с тремя зубцами. Стоящую фигуру из Уцзячуань можно воспринимать и как сидящую, если ее очень длинные опущенные вниз «руки» считать контуром широкополого одеяния. Такая трактовка находит соответствие в тюркских изображениях Горного Алтая и иных районов. На валуне из могильника Кудыргэ выгравирована сидящая женщина в трехрогом головном уборе с ребенком, перед которой склонились три гораздо меньших по размеру спешившихся всадника. Гравированные изображения женщин в трехрогих головных уборах также встречены на скалах и на костяных предметах в Киргизии, Казахстане и в Хакасии. П.П. Азбелев кудыргинскую «сцену коленопреклонения» интерпретирует как отражение христианского (несторианского) сюжета о поклонении волхвов. Всадники в рогатых головных уборах на писанице из Уцзячуань, сгруппированные по трое, спешат на поклонение к находящемуся слева от них персонажу в трехрогом головном уборе. Этот персонаж, как и на кудыргинском валуне, по росту превосходит и всадников и даже их коней.
Эпохальные черты в антропоморфной пластике культур доандроновской бронзы Западной Сибири
Authors:   Институт археологии и этнографии СО РАН, В.И. Молодин
Published: March 2021

Предлагаемая статья посвящается 75-летию видного российского ученого и организатора науки, профессора Юрия Федоровича Кирюшина, создателя барнаульской археологической школы, в 1997–2011 гг. ректора и президента Алтайского государственного университета. В статье представлен анализ имеющих место эпохальных черт в пластическом искусстве культур доандроновской бронзы Западной Сибири. Рассматриваются культуры лесостепной зоны от Прииртышья на западе до бассейна левобережного Енисея на востоке, включая центральную часть – Приобье. К числу предметов антропоморфной пластики относятся фигурки мужчин, жезлы-скипетры или песты, увенчанные головой мужчины, скульптуры возничих, бытовые предметы с изображением мужского персонажа. В восточной зоне представлена пластика, изображающая преимущественно женщин. В результате исследования выделены три зоны пластического антропоморфного искусства, для каждой из них определяются общие черты и различия, проявляющиеся в трактовке образа, которые можно считать эпохальными. Прослеживаются параллели отдельных черт антропоморфной пластики с наскальными изображениями эпохи бронзы Южной Сибири и изображениями на стенках погребальных камер.
Средневековая «лакуна» в наскальном искусстве Западного Забайкалья
Authors:   Бурятский государственный университет, А.Д. Цыбиктаров
Published: March 2021

В статье отмечается отсутствие в Западном Забайкалье памятников наскального искусства хуннуского времени и крайняя редкость объектов средневековой эпохи. Обосновывается невозможность объяснения этого факта слабой изученностью региона в отношении наскального искусства. Причины такой необычной ситуации на фоне центральноазиатского и южносибирского регионов, где хорошо известны петроглифы указанных эпох, объясняются исходя из особенностей культурно-исторических и этнокультурных процессов в регионе западнозабайкальских степей на протяжении бронзового, раннего железного веков, хуннуского и средневекового времени. Антропологическая преемственность хуннуского населения региона от носителей культуры плиточных могил, а затем от хунну к населению средневековой раннемонгольской культуры может указывать на сохранение этнической основы на протяжении этих эпох. С продолжением этнической преемственности могла сохраняться преемственность от поколения к поколению в почитании родовых святилищ, основанных в эпоху бронзы, составной частью которых являлись петроглифы селенгинского типа.

Published: March 2021

Проанализированы этапы изучения памятников освоения Омского Прииртышья русским населением. Выделено три периода. В течение первого периода накапливалась информация о расположении русских поселений и «достопримечательностях», в том числе в архивных материалах. Первое профессиональное исследование провела В.П. Левашова в 1929 г. Второй период (с 1940-х гг.) относится ко времени деятельности А.Ф. Палашенкова и составления им археологической карты Омской области, в которую включены и русские памятники. Третий – начинается с 1990 г. и характеризуется обширными разведочными работами, началом археологического исследования сельских поселений XVII–XVIII вв., острогов, городов Тары и Омска. В результате изучено 23 населенных пункта первоначального заселения Омского Прииртышья, на десяти – в разном объеме проведены раскопки. Осуществлены этноархеологические и визуально-антропологические исследования. Омские ученые стали инициаторами проведения профильной конференции и междисциплинарных школ для молодежи.
The technical and economic comparison of ethylene production from natural gas and ethane
Authors: Atiku Farooq Abubakar , Pirouzfar Vahid , Su Chia-Hung , Wei Sung-Yen
Published: March 2021

Ethylene is one of the most primary and widely used petrochemical products in today’s world and is considered as a chemical building block in the petrochemical industry. In this research, ethylene production from ethane and natural gas is evaluated in terms of cost and optimum conditions. Also, a comprehensive economic and technical comparison is made to achieve the optimal conditions for ethylene production concerning feed diversity. Nowadays most ethylene production units run with ethane feed. If it is possible to implement gas-ethylene processes with an inexpensive natural gas feed, it will be a significant step for technical and economic optimization. Thus, some methods are introduced and compared, and finally an economic review about best condition for ethylene production from ethane and natural gas/investment with regard to cost and economic efficiency of the methods is provided. The investment cost for Gas to Ethylene (GTE) and Ethane to Ethylene (ETE) processes is 363–701 million dollars per year, respectively. Also, rate of return (ROR) of 24 and 19% is calculated for GTE and ETE processes, respectively.
“Creating the illusion of speaking Romanian well”: Hungarian speakers’ teaching and learning the majority language in Romania
Authors: Rácz Krisztina
Published: March 2021

The case study of the article is translanguaging as an educational strategy in preparation for the graduation exam in Romanian language and literature in a Hungarian school in Miercurea Ciuc/Csíkszereda, Romania. Romanian language competence scores are at the bottom of national rankings in this Hungarian-majority town in Szeklerland. Students who speak a minority language have their knowledge of the majority language evaluated in the graduation exam in Romanian language and literature based on the same criteria as first-language speakers’, which has strong implications for their participation in Romanian society. The main research question of this ethnographically informed article is how translanguaging happens in a classroom where students’ first language is being used with the aim of facilitating performance in their second language. The article argues that in the classrooms where the research was conducted, translanguaging is a strategy that negotiates between students’ educational needs in the local environment and the expectation espoused by the state to perform as if they were monolingual Romanian speakers. Similarly, students use translanguaging to strategize between the curricular expectations and their language performance. Yet, I argue that in this case study the emancipatory potential of translanguaging is limited due to ethnolinguistic hierarchies that remain unchallenged.
Effects of gas-assisted extrusion on slip in the cable coating process
Authors: Yin Hongna , Huang Xingyuan , Liu Tongke , Song Minjie
Published: March 2021

The isothermal viscoelastic finite element method is used to simulate and analyze the process of cable coating extrusion, in which the Navier slip model is adopted. The Phan–Thien–Tanner differential viscoelastic constitutive equation is used to describe the flow characteristics of the polymer melt. The polymer material used for simulation is polypropylene. The extrudate swell, velocity field, pressure field and shear stress field are calculated by finite element method. The influences of the gas-assisted extrusion and traditional extrusion on wall slip of cable coating extrusion are compared. The results indicate that the extrudate swell ratio is the largest under the condition of the complete slip between core wire and melt during traditional extrusion process. The increase of core wire dragging velocity can lead to the increase of slip velocity, the decrease of pressure and the increase of shear stress of melt. Gas-assisted extrusion can eliminate the negative effects caused by the slip of core wire or the increase of core wire dragging velocity. Therefore, gas-assisted extrusion can reduce the energy consumption, improve the cable coating layer quality and increase the production efficiency during extrusion process.

Authors: Randhawa Kawaljit Singh , Patel Ashwin D.
Published: March 2021

Nylon composites are of evolving interest due to their good strength, toughness, and low coefficient of friction. Various fillers like micro- and nanoparticulates of metals and metal compounds were used to enhance the mechanical and tribological properties of nylons for many years by researchers. In this paper, an overall understanding of composites, filler materials, especially particulate filler materials, application areas of polymer composites, wear of polymers, and the effect of various fillers on tribo-mechanical properties of nylons have been discussed. The detailed review is limited to micro- and nanoparticulate fillers and their influence on the mechanical and tribological properties of various nylon matrices.
Lifestyle and Dietary Factors Associated with Inflammatory Bowel Disease among Jordanian Patients
Authors: Qualqily Tamara R , Rayyan Yasser M , Tayyem Reema F
Published: March 2021

Background and Aims: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) affect Jordanian adults more than other age groups. Several studies highlight the independent effect of various lifestyle factors on the risk of IBD. Therefore, this study aims to compare the differences between some lifestyle factors among IBD cases and IBD-free controls, while detecting the varying degree of malnutrition in the study sample.

Methods: A case-control study was conducted between November 2018 and December 2019. Three hundred and thirty-five Jordanian adults above the age of 18 years were enrolled in this study. Out of the 335 participants, 185 of them were recently diagnosed with IBD [100 ulcerative colitis (UC) and 85 Crohn‘s disease (CD)] and 150 IBD-free controls. Sociodemographic characteristics, anthropometric measurements, dietary habits and the degree of malnutrition using the Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA) were collected from all participants.

Results: Body mass index and waist circumference were significantly different in UC patients as compared to controls. Cigarette smoking, work status, duration of sleeping hours, physical activity, number of daily main meals intake, meals skipped daily, number of daily snack meal intake, and fast-food intake were all significantly different when comparing IBD cases to controls. While cigarette smoking (OR=0.52, 95%CI: 0.29-0.96, p=0.02) and sleep duration hours during working day (OR=0.05, 95%CI: 0.01-4.68, p=0.001)] were found to be protective factors, the increase in daily working hours (OR=22.13, 95%CI: 10.35-47.32, p=0.001) was identified as a risk factor for IBD. The degree of moderate and severe malnutrition among patients with IBD was significantly (p<0.001) higher as compared to controls.

Conclusions: Patients with IBD had lower BMI and physical activity values compared to controls. The number of daily main meals intake, meals skipped daily, number of daily snack meals intake, fast food intake and the degree of malnutrition were significantly different when IBD cases were compared to controls.

Published: March 2021

Aim: To systematically review the literature for observational studies evaluating periodontal outcomes in pre- and post-liver transplant (LT) individuals compared to a control group.

Methods: Specific strategies were designed to search five databases and the grey literature. Hand-searches were also performed. The following periodontal outcomes were analyzed in pre-LT, post-LT and control groups: plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), gingival growth (GO), alveolar bone loss (ABL) probing depth (PD) and clinical attachment level (CAL). Meta-analyses and subgroup analyses were conducted.

Results: Among the 257 studies retrieved, 11 studies were included. Four studies were incorporated into the meta-analysis and showed that PI (mean difference=0.15, 95%CI: 0.12-0.18) and GI (mean difference=0.31, 95%CI: 0.06-0.56) were significantly higher in post-LT individuals compared to the control group. There was no significant mean difference of PD (mean difference=0.49, 95%CI: -0.26-1.25) but CAL (mean differ- ence=1.47, 95%CI: 0.19-2.75) were significantly higher in pre-LT individuals compared to the control group.

Conclusion: The higher means of PI and GI in post-LT and CAL in pre-LT compared to healthy individuals suggest a relationship between the periodontal condition and the transplantation status.

Published: March 2021

Background and Aims: Vasoactive agents with endoscopic therapy are used to treat acute variceal bleeding (AVB). There are two main groups of vasoactive agents: terlipressin and vasopressin (T-V), and octreotide and somatostatin (O-S). However, the benefit/harm balance is unclear. Our aim was to assess the efficacy and safety of T-V versus O-S for the management of AVB.

Methods: We performed a systematic search for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in PubMed, Scopus, and CENTRAL. Our main outcomes were mortality and adverse events. Secondary outcomes were bleeding control, rebleeding, blood transfusion, hospital stay. We evaluated the certainty of evidence using GRADE methodology.

Results: We included 21 RCTs. The risk of mortality (RR: 1.01; 95%CI: 0.83-1.22), bleeding control (RR: 0.96; 95%CI: 0.91-1.02; I 2 =53%), early rebleeding (RR: 0.91; 95%CI: 0.66-1.24: I 2 =0%), late rebleeding (RR: 0.94; 95 CI: 0.56-1.60; I 2 =0%), blood transfusion (MD: 0.04; 95%CI: -0.31-0.39; I 2 =68%) and hospital stay (MD: -1.06; 95%CI: -2.80-0.69; I 2 =0%) were similar between T-V and O-S groups. Only 15 studies reported adverse events, which were significantly higher in the T-V compared to the O-S group (RR 2.39; 95%CI: 1.58-3.63; I 2 =57%). The certainty of evidence was moderate for the main outcomes, and low or very low for others.

Conclusions: In cirrhotic patients with AVB, those treated with T-V had similar mortality risk compared to O-S. However, the use of T-V showed an increased risk of adverse events compared to O-S.

Fecal microbiota transplantation involves the infusion of intestinal microorganisms via the transfer of a stool from a healthy individual into a diseased individual, with the intent of restoring normal intestinal flora. Fecal transplant is proposed for the treatment of refractory Clostridioides difficile infection. At present, recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection is the only indication supported by solid scientific evidence. Regulations by healthcare authorities vary among different countries. Considering that Romania does not have an available national guideline to offer standardization, this paper aimed to create a national fecal microbiota transplantation guideline concerning indications, techniques and donor screening, developed by international and local scientific working groups.

The problem of inclusive development has recently taken into account in Ukraine, although at the global level and in the EU such discussions have been going on for a long time, as well as key concepts were included in the documents shaping the international policy agenda. The paper aims to identify local markers of inclusion and/or exclusion within the capital post-socialist city, verify participatory approaches within the context of sustainable urban development research, and create a basis for developing recommendations for further improvement of urban policy in Ukraine. The example of the capital, Kyiv, a city that has been integrated into the global economic landscape for several decades, is the most indicative from the point of view of current and anticipated changes. The article outlines the main features of modern discourse in the field of inclusiveness and integrated urban development. On the case of Kyiv and a few urban neighborhoods, based on a survey and expert assessment, local features of the spatial measurement of inclusiveness, such as accessibility and openness of different types of infrastructural objects, organization of urban space, have been analyzed. The surveys, in addition to positive assessments of the availability of urban infrastructure for residents, and high quality of construction of individual facilities, simultaneously have been revealed significant shortcomings, especially for people with disabilities. The role of urban governance and international projects outcomes to achieve new goals of urban environment quality in Ukraine has been emphasized. The scientific novelty of the article is to identify local signs of inclusiveness and exclusivity in the capital city of a post-socialist country in the context of improving urban policy in Ukraine.

Bioclimate and natural vegetation have a long - term relationship that identify the potential vegetation distribution at different areas. For that reason, bioclimatic classification system was applied to the territory of Ba and Kone river basin, Vietnam. The precipitation and temperature dataset of Ba and Kone river basin was collected from 17 climate, hydrology, rain gauge stations which allowed to create a bioclimatic map at a scale of 1:250.000. Three bioclimatic factors of thermal-moisture basic conditions such as annual temperature (TN), annual rainfall (RN), length of dry season (n) are selected as criteria system of Ba and Kone river basin’s bioclimate. In order to describe the relationships between bioclimatic variables and zonal vegetation units, the resulting map presented 12 bioclimatic units corresponding distribution of vegetation from low to high altitudes. By building bioclimatology map in Ba and Kone river basin, the government can develop sustainable agro forestry in Central Highlands and South Central Coast of Vietnam.

Authors: Rustam Rustam , Ikhsan Mohamad , Hartono Djoni , Sumarto Sudarno
Published: March 2021

During 2011-2014, anecdotal evidence suggested a paradox in Indonesia concerning calorie intake that had fallen, despite increased per capita expenditure and household size. This study will rigorously analyze calorie intake by applying several analytical methods, mainly repeated cross-section methods using an instrumental variable. The study used national scale data from the National Socio-Economic Survey (Susenas) in March 2011-2014. This study finds a meaningful relationship between calorie intake and per capita expenditure and household size in Indonesia in the 2011-2014 period. Besides, calorie needs and the "Subsidized Rice for the Poor" or the Raskin program are positively correlated with calorie intake. The research also suggests that the government needs to maintain household food assistance programs, ensure the stability of staple food prices, and apply economies of scale in calculating the poverty line.JEL Classification: C31, C36, D12, D90Rustam., Ikhsan, M., Hartono, D., & Sumarto, S..

E-money is a type of electronic or digital payment that replaces cash payments. These technological developments will have an impact on reducing the use of cash. The use of e-money possibly affects stock, which is a form of securities. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to assess the relationship between e-money and stock. The study uses the two-stage least squares model to analyze quarterly data for 2011Q1-2019Q4. The study found no relationship between stock and e-money in Indonesia, whereas, in Thailand, there was a relationship between stock and e-money. There is no relationship between e-money and stock in Indonesia and Thailand. The study recommends the Indonesian government or central bank adopt the policies that Thailand has implemented in stock that affects e-money. Stocks can affect the use of e-money due to the profits or losses of the stock that will impact the use of e-money.JEL Classification: D53, E40How to Cite:Aimon, H., Sentosa, S. U., & Mahatir, M. R.

Published: March 2021

We study the budget stimulus effects and government spending to help foster the recovery of Indonesia's current economic growth that was hit by the monetary crisis 1997 and 2008. Using government spending allocation policies through capital expenditures, infrastructure expenditures, financing through government debt, private debts, and increased productivity through export and import activities. This research provides to proves the extent to which macroeconomic variables could promote Indonesia's economic growth due to the crisis—using quantitative analysis of time series in the analysis of cointegration autoregressive distribution lag and bounds testing cointegration starting from 2001 Q4 to 2018q4 data. We can prove that in the short term, the most influential factor in economic growth is the first lag of the GDP growth itself; The first lag of exports, and the first lag of government spending and imports. However, some factors still negatively affect corruption control, government effectiveness, and government debt. While in the long term, government expenditure and imports still have a positive effect, but corruption control is still hurt GDP.JEL Classification: G18, O47How to Cite:Sriyanto, A., Murwani, S., & Sofilda, E.

Could Palm Oil Plantation Increase Individual Expenditure? The Dutch Disease Implication in Indonesia
Authors: Siregar Cavin Dennis Tito , Sihaloho Estro Dariatno
Published: March 2021

Indonesia is the largest palm-oil producing country, covering almost 80 percent of global production. With the extensive production capacity, this research seeks to analyze the linkages between palm oil production and its impact on the economy by the individual monthly expenditure. To reveal the connections, this research analyzes the Dutch Disease phenomenon in Indonesia, which explains how the non-tradable sector, palm-oil industry, affects the tradable sector like the manufacturing industry. The panel data variables are selected from 2011 to 2015 within 22 provinces to see the Dutch Disease's implications. As the model is suffered from the endogeneity, the correlation of explanatory variables with the error term, the research uses the Instrumental-Variable Regression method. The analysis indicates that Indonesia was not suffered from Dutch Disease. Therefore, palm oil production could increase individual expenditure. Finally, the extension of palm oil plantations could benefit Indonesia's economy without affecting other sectors.JEL Classification: E21, E24, O13, O44How to Cite:Siregar, C. D. T., & Sihaloho, E. D.

Authors: Rizal Sofyan , Fitrijanto Arief
Published: March 2021

This study seeks to see the relationship between the human development index (HDI) and gross regional domestic product (GRDP) variables on the happiness of economic growth data for provinces in Indonesia. The method used in this research is regression and path analysis.  This study proves that happiness is not caused by the income (GRDP) of a region but rather significantly by one of the dimensions of HDI, namely the education dimension. The relationship through the variable between using path analysis through the indirect effect of the GRDP intermediary also significantly affects the education dimension. About 60% of the variable quality of education plays a role in happiness. If the effect is through an intermediary variable, the real influence of the variable quality of education on happiness is 65%. Other variables such as health and economy, directly or indirectly, do not significantly affect the level of happiness.JEL Classification: I3, E5, R10How to Cite:Rizal, S., & Fitrianto, A. (2021).

Do Growth Spillovers Matter?
Authors: Susanto Joko , Udjianto Didit Welly
Published: March 2021

Although the Yogyakarta Special Region and Central Java are two independent provinces with different regulations, these economies were integrated as a unity that interacts with each other, so this study examined whether the growth spillovers between regencies/cities occurred in these provinces. The data included economic growth, education, working-age population, and asphalted road published by the Central Bureau of Statistics for 2001-2018. This study used a regression analysis based on the Dynamic Ordinary Least Square (DOLS) model. The results showed that there were growth spillovers. The economic growth of a regency/city was positively influenced by economic growth in its surrounding regions. A particular regency/city obtained benefit from economic growth occurred in its surrounding. Meanwhile, an increase in the working-age population and the asphalted road positively affects economic growth. However, the increase in education did not affect economic growth. Therefore, the local government needs to improve connectivity between regions by building road networks and enhancing intergovernmental cooperation.JEL Classification: J6, O1, R1How to Cite:Susanto, J., & Udjianto, D.

Published: March 2021

In the face of global oil price instability, which seems to negatively impact the Nigerian economy, this study examined how the Nigerian government and its stakeholders have explored other sectors of her economy, such as agriculture, manufacturing, and tourism, enhancing sustainable growth. In achieving this, the study employed a time series data covering 24 years (1995-2018). The variables used in the study were real gross domestic product (RGDP), tourism share of GDP, agriculture share of GDP, and manufacturing share of GDP. The unit root test using the Augmented Dickey-Fuller test was conducted to test for stationarity among variables employed. The Autoregressive Distributive Lag Bound Test for Co-integration was also employed, while the ECM was also conducted to check for the speed of adjustment.The study findings revealed that, while the Nigerian government and industry stakeholders have made significant investments in the agriculture sector through the development of improved seedlings and farm infrastructure, there is a need for more investment in the manufacturing and tourism sectors of the nation's economy to boost her gross domestic product.JEL Classification: O13, O14, Q01, Z32How to Cite:Ajudua, E.

Authors: Darmawan Indra , Siregar Hermanto , Hakim Dedi Budiman , Manurung Adler Haymans
Published: March 2021

This study aims to investigate the effect of world oil price changes on inflation in Indonesia. We used a nonparametric regression approach that never been employed in previous studies, both domestically and internationally. This study shows that the second-order Epanechnikov kernel function is statistically significant in explaining the effect of world oil price changes on Indonesia's inflation. We found that the world oil price changes had a lower effect on Indonesia's inflation when its price below USD 100 per barrel, and its effect became higher when its price above USD 100 per barrel. These results have important implications for Bank Indonesia and Indonesia's government in response to the world oil price changes. The policies that aimed at reducing the effect of world oil price changes on inflation in Indonesia should consider the world oil price level.JEL Classification: A12, B26, C14, E31, F29, F62How to Cite:Darmawan, I., Siregar, H., Hakim, D.B., & Manurung, A.H..

Do Remittances Matter for Poverty Reduction in ASEAN?
Authors: Fahrizal Taufiq , Aliasuddin Aliasuddin , Abd. Majid M. Shabri
Published: March 2021

This study examined the influence of remittances and macro-economic variables on poverty in ASEAN-4 countries (i.e., Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and the Philippines) over the 1991 to 2019 period using a panel Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model. The study documented that remittance and unemployment have a significant effect on poverty reduction in the long run. Meanwhile, economic growth and the Gini coefficient were found to have an insignificant influence on poverty reduction. The speed of adjustment due to shocks in the short term is restored within eight months into the long-run equilibrium. Our results emphasize that poverty in ASEAN-4 must be addressed with pragmatic macroeconomic policies, especially policies that affect the poor's income. Besides, with the real contribution of remittances, the strengthening of international cooperation related to migrant workers is also essential to alleviate poverty.JEL Classification: F22, F24, I32, J01, O15How to Cite:Fahrizal, T., Aliasuddin., & Majid, M.

Authors: Silva Joselma Maria da , Júnior Djalma Silva Guimarães , Sant'Anna Carlos Henrique Michels de
Published: March 2021

Purpose - This paper aims to propose a location choice model to establish distribution centers using linear programming.Design/methodology/approach - Locational choice models allow decision makers to select between different possible locations, based on the best fit of established criteria. For this, a Mixed-Integer Linear Programming model (MILP) was proposed to identify the most efficient location for a distribution center in the region in the Mata Norte of the State of Pernambuco, Brazil.Findings - The MILP model allowed us to identify the factors that support transport cost minimization, which are significant for the distribution logistics, indicating a location that minimizes these costs and generates greater efficiency in the logistics in a region within the interior of the state, which is a regional economic center.Originality/Value - Most location choice models for distribution centers are built on the logic of densely populated regions and large urban centers, the value of this study lies in its attempt to optimize the efficiency of logistics within inland regions.Keywords - Locational decision. Linear programming. Logistics. Distribution centers. Local economy.
