Innovation-Facilitating Networks Create Inequality
Authors: Moser Cody James , Smaldino Paul E.
Published: February 2023

Theories of innovation often balance contrasting views that either smart people create smart things or smartly constructed institutions create smart things.While population models have shown factors including population size, connectivity, and agent behavior as crucial for innovation, few have taken the individual-central approach seriously by examining the role individuals play within their groups. To explore how network structures influence not only population-level innovation but also performance among individuals, we studied an agent-based model of the Potions Task, a paradigm developed to test how structure affects a group's ability to solve a difficult exploration task. We explore how size, connectivity, and rates of information sharing in a network influence innovation and how these have an impact on the emergence of inequality in terms of agent contributions. We find, in line with prior work, population size has a positive effect on innovation, but also find that large and small populations perform similarly; that many small groups outperform fewer large groups; that random changes to structure have few effects on innovation in the task; and that the highest performing agents tend to occupy more central positions in the network. Moreover, we show that every network factor which improves innovation leads to a proportional increase in inequality of performance in the network, creating "genius effects" among otherwise "dumb" agents in both idealized and real-world networks.
Undead Past: What Drives Support for the Secessionist Goal of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) in Nigeria?
Authors: Tuki Daniel
Published: February 2023

Although the secessionist conflict in Nigeria’s Eastern Region has persisted for over two decades and become increasingly violent, no study has, to the best of my knowledge, examined the factors influencing support for secession using representative data for Nigeria. This study fills that gap. Relying upon the horizontal inequalities (HEs) theory, this study examines the effect of ethnic marginalization and socioeconomic condition on support for secession. Among members of the Igbo ethnic group, perceived ethnic marginalization was found to increase the likelihood of supporting secession. Keeping all covariates at their mean levels, a unit increase in perceived ethnic marginalization increases the likelihood to “strongly agree” with secession by 13 percent. Socioeconomic condition was measured at the individual, household, and communal levels. The individual and household measures had no effect on support for secession, but the communal measure did. However, the results contravened the prediction of the HEs theory: improvements in socioeconomic condition at the communal level rather increased the likelihood of supporting secession. Belonging to the Igbo ethnic group was also found to increase the likelihood of supporting secession. Compared to non-Igbos, Igbos are 16 percent more likely to “strongly agree” with secession and 32 percent less likely to “strongly disagree” with it.

Participation of Political Parties in Local Governments of Nepal
Authors: Khadka Gopal
Published: February 2023

The success and failure of the political economy depend on the structure and function of political parties. The agenda of development in a democratic country is set and met by ruling political parties. Political parties are dynamic forces to mobilize mass for achieving common agendas. Political parties play an effective and efficient role in political socialization of citizens. In Nepal, political parties are mostly capable of creating public awareness about the common concern. Political parties produce both positive and negative impacts on all dimensions of society in Nepal. To analyze the status of political parties in the local governance of Nepal, and to explore their role, strengths and weaknesses in the local development of Nepal, this article is prepared with the title ‘Participation of political parties on local level government in Nepal”. It is mainly based on the secondary data of the election commission of Nepal. Information regarding objectives was collected through various search engines by a simple literature review. The status of political parties is found unequal at the local level of government in Nepal. Nepali congress party occupies the first position followed by CPN-UML and CPN-Maoist respectively in second and third positions. Local-level Governments must play effective roles to solve the day-to-day immediate problem of people. The joint efforts of all political parties are mandatory to meet the immediate requirement of local people through the effective mechanism of service delivery. The role and responsibility of political parties are vital to fulfilling gaps between service consumers and providers. Lack of coordination, unhealthy competition, and lack of transparency in political parties are notable issues to address without delay. To meet the common concern of Nepalese people regarding their local issues, joint efforts of all political parties are mandatory.
Kirat and Bhote: A conspectus
Authors: Yamphu Rai Hom
Published: February 2023

Anthropologists and Nepali cultural historians and literates, including Tibetologists and South Asian cultural historians have commonly conceptualized Himalayan peoples and their civilization as an “Indo-Tibetan Interface ∕ ” Consequently, the Himalayan peoples have been explained within very generic terms given by their neighbors, scholars, and then state administrators such as Kiratiand Bhote. This review article also shows that using such generic terms Kirati and Bhote are a little problematic because these terms have been used in a way that emphasizes many differences as if they have nothing in common. In his review article, I argue that understanding Kirati and Bhote people requires a perceptive of common racial, religious, cultural, and historical origin, rather than dichotomizing them. Thus, Bhote and Kirati might have come to be used as ethnic names in the same sense and purpose as Edward Said (1978) identified how Westerners used “binary grammar” to describe “the Orient” to them. Thus, it will not result in pinpointing any ethnic group, present or in past. I argue that both Kirati and Bhote are not specific ethnonyms and not the only ones of this kind and are referential terms of a most general kind, perhaps like paharia.

Siddhartha as a Journey of Self-Discovery
Authors: Shrestha Ravi Kumar
Published: February 2023

This paper deals with the protagonist, Siddhartha’s dissatisfaction with his life, mental turmoil, inquisitiveness in knowing his existence and his quest for self-Discovery in the novel Siddhartha. This novel was written by Hermann Hesse and was published in 1922. It was his masterpiece, which shows his journey to the East, the influence of Buddhist philosophy upon him and his autobiographical elements that pave a way for one’s journey to Spiritual knowledge in this physical world. As the novel was written in the First World War years, the search for spiritualism would naturally be the interest of most of Europeans who found Europe devoid of it. So, Hess made his journey to the East (India) in quest of spiritualism as the protagonist of the novel does. One major objective of the research work is to explore different factors that enable Siddhartha to discover his self. Why Siddhartha is in search of self is the research question. Siddharth is in search of self since he is not happy and satisfied with love of his parents and friend and finds his life meaningless and devoid of freedom. Like the writer, Siddhartha comes across a lot of illusions that human beings encounter in their daily life. He passes through multiple vicissitudes and experiences in his life through sufferings and salvation. His such self-actualization with social life and nature ultimately leads him to attain nirvana. Thus, his quest for self-discovery indicates elements of autobiographical elements, existentialism, and self-actualizing tendency which is based on Carl Rogers’ humanistic psychology. As for the theoretical modality, Jean-Paul Sartre’s theory of Existentialism is applied to explore Siddhartha’s search for self, which is like Europeans’ search for self due to devastation made by world war and Siddhartha Guatam’s search for self due to his dissatisfaction with the world.

Authors: Sah Badri Narayan
Published: February 2023

The non-agricultural sector has made a significant contribution to the Nepalese economy. The non-agriculture sector now contributes 76.1 percent of GDP. In the fiscal year 2078/2079, the per capita income rises by 10.8 percent as a result of this contribution. In the fiscal year 2078/2079, itis anticipated that this income would rise to US$ 1381. The per capita income for the fiscal year2077/2078 was only US$1246. GDP growth rates from the industrial and service sectors are 5.05percent and 4.43 percent, respectively, in the non-agriculture sector. Average percentage of total GDP for the previous five years: 65.7 percent, 65.9 percent, 68.6 percent, and 74.9 percent for 2059/60 to 2063/64, 2064/65 to 2068/69, 2069/70 to 2073/74, and 2074/75 to 2078/79respectively.The average growth rate for this industry over the thirteenth plan period is 3.4percent. Likewise, 37.2 percent of revenue in 2010/11 came from industries outside than agriculture. In Nepal, 21.6 percent of the population continues to live in poverty. Thus, it is intended to reduce poverty from 21.6 percent to 18 percent by the end of the 14th plan period and to eradicate it entirely by 2030. As a result, the non-agricultural sector will assist Nepal in moving from a less developed to a middle-income country. Hence, this study focuses on the contribution of non-agriculture sector in economic development of Nepal.
Causes and Consequences of Cross-border Migration of Nepalese People to India
Authors: Kunwar Laxman Singh
Published: February 2023

Nepal and India share an open border as per the agreements of a bilateral treaty signed in 1950.According to the treaty, people of both countries can travel and work across the border and are to be treated at par with the native citizens. Due to its poor economic condition, Nepal has been supplying labour to India since Nepalese were recruited as ‘Gorkhas’ in the British Indian army after the Anglo-Nepal war of 1814-16. The 1991 and 2001 Censuses of Nepal recorded that absentee population from Nepal towards India constituted 89.2 and 79 per cent of the total migrants respectively, though this phenomenon has changed over the recent years. There has been increasing a trend of migration to Gulf countries, Asian Tiger States, American and European countries. This article is based on secondary data sources. People who are not that much skilled and have not enough resources are going to south East Asian countries, mainly to Malaysia, and Middle East. Nearly more than four-fifths of per cent absenteeism from Nepal remained in India. The similar socio-cultural, religious patterns, historical and geographical setting favor in participating on cross-border migration between two countries.

Published: February 2023

This paper discusses gender stereotypes still embedded in Nepali society towards women due to the disbelief and misconception which shaping the expectations, attitudes, and behaviors toward women. This study also elucidates the sad reality of gender stereotype throughout the life of women (birth, marriage etc.) that have been practicing in the culture and making life vulnerable and challenging. The critical appraisal at the situation of Nepali women reveals a terrible realityas women are still tolerating gender stereotype practices in the society, even when everyone is aware of their rights and gender equality. In particular, some exceptional woman personalities such as Pasang Lhamu Sherpa (first Nepali woman and the second woman in the world to summit Mount Everest); Anuradha Koirala (CNN's Hero of the Year-2010); Puspa Basnet (CNN's Hero of the Year-2012) etc. are the epitome of rebellers of the gender stereotype in Nepal. In general, equal praise, motivation and right education to both child (son and daughter) starting from home can help them to build gender neutral attitude in the future. Therefore, capacity to defy all the odds of the society like these rebellers of stereotype and gender neutral attitude towards gender stereotypes are the foundation of way out for maintaining gender equality in Nepali society.

In this study, it can be concluded that the collaborative governance process that occurred at Sowan Beach took place unequally with the Abstinence model. It was emphasized that the Perhutani party did not involve and pay attention to the Bogorejo Village community regarding tourism development. This is supported by the empirical fact that in making decisions on tourism development on Sowan Beach it is only carried out by the Jatirogo forestry party without involving the Bogorejo village community. The aspirations of the community for the development of the Sowan beach tourism village are not accommodated to the maximum. So that the existence of Sowan Beach has not been able to provide optimal benefits for the welfare and quality of life of the people of Bogorejo Village, Tuban, East Java.

Authors: Beltahmamero Simamora
Published: February 2023

Controversy over the construction of the New Yogyakarta International Airport (NYIA) has occurred since the airport development plan was declared. Because of the overcapacity of passenger and cargo flight activities at Yogyakarta's Adi Sucipto Airport, the government thinks it necessary to build an international standard airport. However, the community and Wahana Tri-Tunggal rejects it because of the NYIA development project, which was projected to take up 637 hectares of land and was feared, would "evict" around 11,000 people. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the land acquisition controversy in the NYIA development plan. The results show that, firstly, there is no consistency with the Regional Regulation of Kulon Progo Regency Number 1 of 2012 relating to Regional Spatial Plans with the NYIA Policy, where Temon District according to Article 7 paragraph 2 is an urban system service center that mainly focuses on agriculture, plantations, and agropolitan and Temon urban area. Tsunami Evacuation which means a protected land area was built by NIYA. Second, the inconsistency of the Minister of Environment Number 5 of 2012 with the NYIA Policy where the development EIA was made after the issuance of the Permit, but land acquisition had occurred before. Third, the deviation from the land productivity-based slogan "Bela Beli Kulon Progo" causes freedom for modern shops to compete with traditional markets. The conclusion is the government, which originally showed its alignment with the agricultural sector through several policies, actually violated existing policies through the NYIA development project and it caused controversy.

World Health Organization Regime Effectiveness in Controlling COVID-19: Case Study of Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia
Authors: Ilkodar Saptopo Bambang
Published: February 2023

The World Health Organization (WHO) is the only international organization to be given authority by the Charter of the United Nations to promote and protect the health of all people. Then it is not surprising that people look after the response and action of the WHO when COVID-19 cases explode worldwide.  Observing the response of the WHO, some analysts criticized the organization for late, incomprehensive, and unsystematic policy. Some even blame the way the organization work, that is reactive rather than predictive, the shortage of the budget, and the decision-making process that is not transparent.            This paper intends to analyze the effectiveness of the WHO's rule, norms and regulation in controlling the spread of the COVID-19. It tries to answer the question of how effective the WHO regime is in controlling COVID-19 spread. Using the theory of regime effectiveness, it studies the case of Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia. The three countries are chosen because WHO has appreciated Malaysia and Thailand for their compliance with International Health Regulations (2005) (IHR) core capacity requirements and have strong capacity and self-sufficiency in outbreak preparedness and response. Meanwhile, Indonesia faced considerable difficulties at the beginning of the pandemic, but currently Indonesia achieves better performance in controlling the pandemic than that Malaysia and Thailand. Keywords: World Health Organization, International Health Regulation, COVID-19, international regime, effectiveness
INFORMAÇÃO MÚTUA ENTRE RADIAÇÃO LÍQUIDA MEDIDA E RECONSTITUÍDA A PARTIR DE SÉRIES TEMPORAIS DE TEMPERATURA

Published: February 2023

Compreender a dinâmica de sistemas ambientais segundo abordagem que envolve a Teoria dos Sistemas Complexos é um objeto de estudo que se apresenta como alternativa perante a utilização de modelagens clássicas. O presente trabalho é dedicado à utilização do Teorema de Takens para reconstruir a dinâmica micrometeorológica da Reserva Biológica de Jaru (RO), utilizando séries temporais da temperatura do ar, particularmente, extraindo informações sobre a radiação líquida a partir da temperatura do ar, utilizando a técnica da rotação do espaço de tempos defasados. A reprodução da dinâmica do sistema utilizando apenas séries de temperatura do ar indica que essa variável carrega informações das demais variáveis, além de informações do sistema como um todo. Utilizando a análise de informação mútua, foi estudado o quanto de informação a temperatura do ar carrega sobre a radiação líquida. Os resultados apontam que, no período de seca, a temperatura retém cerca de 80% de informação a respeito da radiação líquida e, no período, chuvoso, 60%.
Palavras-chave: teorema de Takens; microclimatologia; termodinâmica do não-equilíbrio; análise de séries temporais.
 
Mutual information between measured net radiation and reconstructed by means of temperature time series
 
ABSTRACT: Understanding the dynamics of environmental systems according to an approach that involves the Theory of Complex Systems is an object of study that presents itself as an alternative to the use of classical models. The present work is dedicated to the use of Takens' Theorem to reconstruct the micrometeorological dynamics of the Jaru Biological Reserve (RO – Brazil), using time series of air temperature, particularly extracting information about the net radiation from the temperature, using the technique of rotation of lagged times space. The reproduction of the system dynamics using only air temperature series indicates that this variable carries information from the other variables, in addition to information about the system as a whole. Using mutual information analysis, it was studied how much information the air temperature carries on the net radiation. The results indicate that, in the dry period, the temperature retains about 80% of information regarding net radiation and, in the rainy period, 60%.
Keywords: Takens theorem; microclimatology; non-equilibrium thermodynamics; time series analysis.

Despliegue del poder blando chino en América Latina y recepción en los países de la región
Authors:   Universidad de los Andes, Chile, Brito Munita Juan Ignacio , Tagle Montt Francisco Javier ,   Universidad de los Andes, Chile
Published: February 2023

El concepto del poder blando ha cobrado relevancia en Relaciones Internacionales. Asociado típicamente a EE.UU., en los últimos años también China ha promovido su poder blando, llegando a América Latina. Tras revisar las dificultades para acordar una definición del término, esta investigación observa el fenómeno desde una doble perspectiva: por un lado, analiza el despliegue del poder blando chino en la región; por otro, evalúa la respuesta de los países latinoamericanos ante él. Postula que, mientras China usa una definición amplia del poder blando que aplica en la región y la vincula prioritariamente a aspectos de su política doméstica, la recepción de los gobiernos latinoamericanos depende de una variable: aunque todos acogen la ofensiva económica china y se acercan al gigante asiático, la manera en que reaccionan a ella está condicionada a la postura que mantienen hacia EE.UU.
Perú entre Estados Unidos y China: Adaptación de la política exterior peruana de cara a las divergencias chino-estadounidenses

Desde hace un tiempo China viene compitiendo con Estados Unidos por una posición dominante en el mundo. La competencia es, sobre todo económica, aunque implica, por supuesto, aspectos también políticos, sociales y militares. Una de las regiones más disputadas es, sin duda, América Latina, en la que Estados Unidos pierde cada vez más terreno y China se posiciona como el mayor socio comercial. En este contexto, los países latinoamericanos han tenido que reconfigurar sus políticas exteriores para poder satisfacer sus expectativas de la mano de quien le ofrezca mejores posibilidades. Perú no ha sido una excepción y, de hecho, se ha acercado en los últimos años más a China como principal socio comercial, aunque no ha soltado la mano de Estados Unidos del todo. El presente artículo explora cómo se ha reconfigurado la política exterior peruana de cara a la competencia entre China y Estados Unidos
La evolución de la política exterior ecuatoriana durante el Siglo XXI: Análisis desde la teoría del Realismo Periférico
Authors:   Tecnológico de Monterrey, Sede Querétaro, Paradela López Miguel , Jima González. Alexandra ,   Tecnológico de Monterrey, Sede Puebla
Published: February 2023

El presente artículo analiza la evolución de la política exterior ecuatoriana durante los gobiernos de Rafael Correa, Lenín Moreno y Guillermo Lasso a la luz de los postulados teóricos del Realismo Periférico, que sostienen que los pequeños y medianos Estados deben desarrollar una política de colaboración con las grandes potencias y reducir su oposición a aquellos eventos que directamente afectan a los intereses de sus nacionales. Para ello, se analizan momentos clave de cada uno de los siguientes gobiernos, incluyendo el cierre de la Base de Manta, la relación con el FMI, la entrega de Julian Assange o la compra de vacunas contra el Covid-19. El artículo concluye mostrando cómo los tres presidentes desarrollaron estrategias que no maximizaron los intereses ecuatorianos, en tanto que alternaron gobiernos donde el enfrentamiento con las grandes potencias fue generalizado con gobiernos que priorizaron el acercamiento con estos a costa de los intereses nacionales.
