As higher education institutions strive to deliver excellence, it is imperative to identify the key factors that can drive improvements in service quality and empower institutions to meet the evolving needs of students and stakeholders. The objective of this research is to obtain information concerning the effect of entrepreneurship, organizational flexibility, learning organization and customer orientation on the service quality of higher education. This study was conducted in The Indonesian Institute of Business and Informatics (IBII) by using survey method with path analysis applied in testing hypothesis. The number of 60 founded lectures as a sample is selected by simple random sampling. The research findings are as follows: entrepreneurship has a direct impact on organizational learning, customer orientation, and the quality of higher education services. Organizational flexibility also directly influences these three aspects. However, there is no direct impact of organizational learning on customer orientation. Customer orientation has a direct impact on the quality of higher education services. The result of this research could imply that in developing and empowering the service quality of higher education, entrepreneurship, organizational flexibility, learning organization and customer orientation should be taken into account.
The interaction effect of personality hardiness and fear of failure to predict achievement motivation adolescents of working mother
Authors: Farradinna Syarifah , Arlena Sindy Putri
Published: December 2023

Individuals with traits of hardiness believe that success is the result of both positive and negative life experiences. People who are highly motivated to achieve have a close relationship with intense dedication, reasonable control, and positive challenges. They are even willing to accept failure as part of the goal-setting process This study was conducted to explain the psychological characteristics of hardness and fear of failure that are predicted to determine the achievement motivation of adolescents whose mothers are employed. Participants were recruited anonymously and willingly from universities in Pekanbaru, Indonesia, Riau. After collecting and analyzing 280 questionnaires for outlier analysis, 188 were found valid for further study. Two stages of measurement were carried out; measuring was examined, and the structural model was deemed statistically significant. This study applied a quantitative methodology to the analysis of the path analysis mediation model. This study employs three measurement instruments and demographic data to address research issues. Dispositional Resilience Scale-15 (DRS-15), an action strategy to measure achievement motivation behavior personality, and the Performance Failure Appraisal Inventory (PFAI), a multidimensional assessment of cognitive-motivational-relational fear of failure, were used in this study to collect data. Path analysis from SmartPLS 3.2 was used to analyze the research data and determine the moderating and correlation values for the studied variables. This assessment indicates that fear of failure does not contribute to SMK students in Pekanbaru's toughness with success motivation. In contrast, the coefficient values for other factors indicate a positive contribution.

Published: December 2023

A farinha de mandioca é um produto amplamente consumido no Maranhão, porém as condições artesanais de produção e falta de estrutura para comercialização podem favorecer a ocorrência de objetos estranhos tornando o alimento impróprio para consumo. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a quantidade e tipo de sujidades em amostras de farinha de mandioca produzida nos municípios de Santa Rita e Itapecuru-Mirim. Foram adquiridas 22 amostras de farinha de mandioca de diferentes produtores de ambos os municípios durante os meses de novembro a dezembro de 2022 e maio a julho de 2023 em feiras e mercados. As amostras foram acondicionadas em sacos de um quilo, levadas e armazenadas no laboratório de aulas práticas do curso de Tecnologia em Gestão do Agronegócio, campus Itapecuru-Mirim e realizada a determinação das sujidades utilizando estereomicroscópio. Em mais de 50% das amostras foram observados presença de fragmentos de insetos, partículas carbonizadas e material vegetal. As sujidades presentes indicam que há falha no processo de produção, manuseio, armazenamento e comercialização e consiste no maior problema observado para garantir produto de qualidade, independente da origem da farinha.

This review article deals with quantum biology, the new tool that helps traditional biology unravel some mysteries concerning life and living organisms on Earth. We use Einstein’s famous equation to explain how an unknown energy realm creates the material universe. We demonstrate how material existence precedes living existence and elucidate how non-living atoms transition to living molecules, Francis Crick’s faded dream that comes to reality. Finally, we expose the two types of Information available inside a cell to sustain life in living organisms and elaborate on a new formulation of the biogenesis theory.
Der Mord am toten Vater
Authors: Perelberg Rosine Jozef
Published: December 2023

In diesem Aufsatz wird die Annahme verfolgt, dass es in der Shoah um die Konfrontation mit der Abkehr vom Gesetz des toten Vaters sowie um die Wieder-Einsetzung der Tyrannei des narzisstischen Vaters geht. In der Vernichtung der Juden Europas in der Shoah sollten die Regeln der Genealogie und Abstammung von Mutter und Vater zerstört werden, die die Gesellschaft begründen sowie die Entstehung von Personalität ermöglichen und sich im Kern der ödipalen Struktur befinden. Die Regel einer absoluten Macht – die Zerstörung jeder Art von mütterlicher Fürsorge und väterlichen Regeln – führt schließlich zur Erzeugung des Abjekts. Freud unterschied zwei verschiedene Arten von Hindernissen für eine psychoanalytische Behandlung, die Ausdrucksformen des Todestriebs sind. Die erste ist gebunden und mit dem Über-Ich verbunden; sie steht in Verbindung mit der negativen therapeutischen Reaktion, Masochismus und unbewusstem Schuldgefühl. Die andere Manifestation des Todestriebs ist ungebunden und diffus. Während die erste verstehbar ist, entzieht sich die zweite, so Freud, jedem Verstehen. Dieser Aufsatz nutzt diese Unterscheidung, um Hannah Arendts Annahme einer Banalität des Bösen zu untersuchen.

First Morphological Description of Rhacophorus orlovi (Anura: Rhacophoridae) from Yunnan, China
Authors: Wang Jian , Li Jing , Hou Mian , Yu Guo-Hua
Published: December 2023

Although Rhacophorus orlovi from China was once sampled in previous phylogenetic studies, up to now it has never been formally included in any list of Chinese amphibians, which could lead to a misunderstanding that R. orlovi has no accurate distribution in China. Here, we describe R. orlovi for the first time from China based on one specimen collected from Yunnan Province and compare it with the holotype of the species. Molecular evidence supports it belonging to R. orlovi and genetic divergence within R. orlovi ranges from 0 to 1.85%. Compared to the holotype, the specimen from Hekou, Yunnan, China shows some variations in both morphometric characters and color pattern.

Differenzkonstruktionen im weltgesellschaftlichen Horizont von Lehramtsstudierenden: Empirische Ergebnisse einer deutsch-finnischen Studie
Authors: Timm Susanne
Published: December 2023

Ausgehend von verschiedenen Konzeptionen „des Transnationalen“ in der Bildung, wird in dem Beitrag das transformative Potenzial der Global Citizenship Education (GCE) befragt und inwieweit sie als Teil eines breiteren Transnationalisierungsprozesses betrachtet werden kann. Dies geschieht mit Rekurs auf den Neoinstitutionalismus (Ramirez, & Meyer, 2002), das Konzept Transnationale Bildungsräume (Adick, 2005; Hornberg, 2010) und einem emischen Ansatz zur GCE (Szakács-Behling et al., 2020), um Theorie und Praxis miteinander zu verknüpfen. In einem zweiten Schritt ziehen wir sodann zwei Beispiele aus unserer Forschung heran: das transnationale Netzwerk der Eco-Schools und das überstaatliche System der Schola Europaea, die mit Hilfe von zwei Perspektiven (Meso- und Mikro-) untersucht werden. Eine dritte Perspektive, die Makro-Perspektive, hier exemplifiziert durch die Arbeit der UNESCO im Bereich der GCE, dient als wichtiger Kontext für Entwicklungen auf der Meso- und Mikroebene. Zusammen bieten diese drei Zugänge ergänzende Einblicke in die Frage der transnationalen Transformation des Schulwesens und zielen auf die Weiterentwicklung dieses Forschungsfelds.

How Effective Is Inter-Basin Transfer to Manage Temporal Variation Of “Too Much” And “Too Little” Water Conditions for Irrigation in a Himalayan Basin?
Authors: Bhattarai Utsav , Devkota Laxmi Prasad , Maraseni Tek
Published: December 2023

Better irrigation facilities leading to “more crop per drop” are today’s needs. This study examines how the overall water balance of Sunkoshi, Marin, and Bagmati Basins will be altered by implementing the Sunkoshi-Marin Diversion Project (SMDP) to fulfill the unmet demands of the Bagmati Irrigation Project (BIP) in the Bagmati Basin via the Marin Basin in Nepal. The specific objectives are to: i) quantify “too much” and “too little” water peculiar to the study basin based on historical data; ii) evaluate water availability, irrigation water requirement, and deficits with and without SMDP; and iii) provide evidence-based recommendations on the effectiveness of the SMDP considering hydropower generation, irrigation and low- and high-flow conditions. Thirty years of historical daily flow data (two gauging stations) and precipitation data (15 stations) were obtained from the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology. Other spatial input data were acquired from relevant authorized sources. Water availability has been estimated using flow at the diversion sites while the irrigation requirements have been calculated based on secondary information. Results show that additional water is not at all required for Marin and Bagmati Basins in the monsoon season. Rather, the diverted water increases the flood hazard. Moreover, the contribution of hydropower from SMDP to the national energy demand is insignificant in the monsoon. However, the SMDP was found to play an important role in meeting the irrigation deficits during the dry season. Its contribution to hydropower production in the lean period is also commendable. However, the proposed irrigation requirement of the BIP cannot be met even after the implementation of the SMDP. More importantly, there is a high probability of the intended diversion flow not being available in the Sunkoshi River (donor) which could have severe consequences downstream. Therefore, additional options for conjunctive use need to be explored.

Authors: Chanda Bhupesh , Sukamani Dinesh , Pokhrel Sudip , Nepal Sujan
Published: December 2023

The COVID-19 pandemic caused disruptions in building construction projects, with safety measures being a major concern for workers and the public. This study aims to assess the barriers to safety measures during the COVID-19 pandemic on building construction projects in Nepal. A total of 330 responses were collected from construction professionals in Nepal using a Likert scale. To ensure the data's suitability for factor analysis using Principal Component Analysis, Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin, Bartlett's Sphericity test, inter-component correlations, and Cronbach alpha scores for internal consistency were checked, and principal components were extracted. A 25-item safety barrier to safety measures in building construction projects during the COVID-19 pandemic was identified through an extensive review of the literature; six components were retained using Principal Component Analysis which represented the model of choice and explained 62.86 % of the data variance. The components were; inappropriate safety guidelines, psychological working pressure, inadequate hygiene monitoring and control, lack of safety awareness, improper working culture, and insufficient planning and scheduling. The internal consistency for the retained components was high; Cronbach α scores ranged from 0.72 to 0.796. “Inappropriate Safety Guidelines” was the most critical barrier to implementing safety measures during the COVID-19 pandemic in building construction projects, according to the rankings of the six identified components. It is recommended that construction professionals and regulatory bodies prioritize the development and adherence to robust safety protocols tailored to pandemic conditions. Regularly updating and reinforcing these guidelines will be crucial in safeguarding the health and well-being of workers while ensuring project continuity. Additionally, investing in thorough training and awareness programs can significantly mitigate this barrier's impact.

Published: December 2023

The construction industry is known for its labor-intensive nature, and companies must maintain high labor management standards to complete projects within time and budget. However, challenges related to labor management are common in the industry and can negatively impact project delivery times and costs. In Nepal, housing developers face the issue of not delivering projects on time, leading to increased costs. This study explores the current labor management practices, challenges, and remedial measures in the construction industry of Nepal, with a focus on housing developers in the Kathmandu Valley. The study collected data from 17 building projects using interviews and questionnaires and analyzed the data using the Relative Importance Index (RII) and Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. The findings indicate that labor management issues, including poor communication, planning, inadequate wages, occupational health and safety, labor policy, and unfair treatment, are major challenges faced by housing developers in Nepal. The study recommends implementing better employee staffing, performance evaluation, work environment, training, and compensation management to address these challenges. The results of this study offer insight into current labor management practices and potential solutions for housing developers in Nepal, contributing to the overall success of construction projects. Proper labor management can result in substantial savings in time and cost for construction projects, making this study relevant and valuable to researchers and practitioners in the construction industry. The findings of this research could have important implications for private housing developers in Nepal, as well as for the broader housing sector in developing countries facing similar challenges.
Corporate Governance dan Kinerja Keuangan Perusahaan Pertambangan Indonesia
Authors: Exsanti Putri , Yuliani Yuliani , Malinda Shelfi
Published: December 2023

This study aims to analyze the effect of corporate governance on financial performance. Financial performance is measured based on market value using the Tobin's Q model. Meanwhile, corporate governance is seen from the principle of independence by using managerial ownership, institutional ownership, and the size of the independent board of commissioners as proxies. Based on the purposive sampling method, 35 mining sector companies were selected which were listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange with the 2016-2020 observation period so that 175 observation units were obtained. The data analysis technique uses multiple linear regression. The results showed that managerial ownership and institutional ownership had no effect on financial performance, while the size of the independent board of commissioners had a significant negative effect on financial performance. This shows that the number of shares owned by the company's management as well as private and government ownership does not affect the company's financial performance. Meanwhile, the greater the number of independent commissioners, the lower the company's financial performance based on market value. This could have been caused by a negative investor assessment that reduced demand for company shares, which in turn had an impact on a decrease in the company's market value. So, the company is advised to increase the number of independent commissioners. For further research it is suggested to use audit quality as another proxy and analyze the principles of Good Corporate Governance in a comprehensive manner.

Authors: Muñoz Larroa Argelia
Published: December 2023

Background: Using the term “cultural diversity” as an analytical framework and normative guideline to assess cultural flows, this article analyzes the catalogs of major platforms for subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) in Mexico and Canada.

Analysis: This study systematized the catalogs’ content titles to produce statistics on country of origin as indicators of “supply diversity.”

Conclusions and implications: The results reveal that (1) content from the United States and Europe predominates; (2) tech platforms offer a higher degree of international content (“external diversity”) than platforms from traditional Hollywood studios and local companies; and (3) for most platforms, local content is scarce, which could indicate lower “internal diversity.”

Authors: Peulić Jovica , Obradović Anja , Vukadinović Jurišić Mila , Obradović Jelena
Published: December 2023

Swimming speed depends on anthropometric characteristics, biomechanics factors, physical fitness, physiological components, and genetics. Therefore, this study aimed to identify which anthropometric characteristics influence swimming speed in adolescent competitive swimmers. Thirty-eight male swimmers (aged 16.94 ± 0.8 years; body height: 178.3 ± 5.4 cm; body weight 67.7 ± 9.6 kg) and thirty-five female swimmers (aged 17.12 ± 0.7 years; body height: 175.1 ± 6.6 cm; body weight 59.9 ± 7.1 kg) participated in the study. All swimmers have competed at the national level in Serbia for at least three years and have at least five years of training experience. Fifteen variables were measured: arm length, hand length, leg length, foot length, seat height, wrist diameter, ankle joint diameter, elbow diameter, chest circumference, triceps skinfold, forearm skinfold, abdominal skinfold, subscapular skinfold, thigh skinfold, calf skinfold. The measurements were taken by the Martin anthropometer, Omron digital scale BF511, and John Bull caliper. Swimming speed was measured during 50-m and 100-m front crawl swimming. Multiple regression analysis revealed that arm length, wrist diameter, and chest circumference, all together, accounted for 77% of 100-m front crawl swimming speed in male swimmers, while abdominal skinfold accounted for 90% of 100-m front crawl swimming speed in female swimmers. Results showed that anthropometric characteristics could not account for adolescent swimmers' 50-m front crawl swimming speed. However, anthropometric characteristics can influence the result in swimming (100-m front crawl swimming speed) in adolescents and thus should be considered a diagnostic tool in selecting young swimmers.

MEREC ve CRADIS Yöntemlerini İçeren Entegre Bir ÇKKV Modeli ile DASK Özelinde Bir Uygulama
Authors: TAŞCI Mehmet Zafer
Published: December 2023

Bu çalışmada amaç Türk sigorta sektöründe faaliyet gösteren özellikli kuruluşlardan olan Doğal Afet Sigortaları Kurumu’nun performans değerlendirmesini incelemektir. Bu amaçla MEREC ve CRADIS yöntemlerini birleştiren bir ÇKKV modeli önerilmiştir. İlk olarak MEREC yöntemi ile kriterlere ilişkin objektif önem ağırlıkları hesaplanmıştır. İkinci aşamada ise DASK’ın 2009-2021 dönemine ilişkin performansı CRADIS yöntemi ile belirlenip sıralanmıştır. Objektif ağırlıklandırma yönteminden elde edilen sonuçlar en önemli performans kriterinin ödenen tazminatlar en önemsiz kriterin ise poliçe sayısı olduğunu göstermektedir. CRADIS yöntemi ile ulaşılan sonuçlara göre ise seçilen performans göstergeleri açısından DASK’ın en iyi performans gösterdiği yıl 2020, en en kötü performans gösterdiği yıl ise 2009 olmuştur. Çalışma sonuçları detaylı bir şekilde değerlendirildiğinde DASK’ın performansının ele alınan dönemde genel anlamda yükseliş gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca çalışma sonuçlarının geçerliliğinin test edilmesi amacıyla duyarlılık analizi uygulanmıştır. 12 farklı senaryo ile yapılan duyarlılık analizi sonuçları incelendiğinde uygulanan tüm senaryolarda en iyi alternatifin 2020 yılı alternatifi olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu sonuçlar önerilen model ile elde edilen sıralamaların tutarlı ve kararlı olduğunu doğrulamaktadır.

Authors: Biško Ante , Vukmir Lukas
Published: December 2023

U radu je dat prikaz učinka petogodišnje provedbe operacije 10.1.15. PEG (primjena ekoloških gnojiva) s posebnim naglaskom na vinogradarstvo koje je bilo najzastupljenije unutar skupine višegodišnjih nasada i činilo je 60% prijavljenih površina, dok su voćnjaci, maslinici i mješoviti trajni nasadi zajedno činili preostalih 40%. Najučinkovitija županija 2018. godine bila je Požeško-slavonska, dok su se u narednim godinama povećavale površine u Vukovarsko-srijemskoj, Osječko-baranjskoj i Istarskoj županiji. Ove četiri županije bile su dominantne po osnovi korištenja PEG-a tako da su nakon pet godina provedbe (2022.) zajedno imale 84% vinogradarskih površina prijavljenih u PEG-u (a sve ostale županije 16%), dok su njihove površine u Arkodu činile 45% ukupnih vinogradarskih površina. Godišnje prijave vinogradarskih površina u PEG kretale su se od 1.023 ha (2018.) do 5.564 ha (2022.) bilježeći stalni porast. Pripadajuća novčana vrijednost kretala se od 576.263 eura (2018.) do 3.133.800 eura (2022.), sveukupno 10.408.203 eura (78.420.607 kn). Uvođenje i provedba PEG-a u vinogradarstvu imala je značajne ekološke, tehnološke i financijske učinke. Ostaje otvoreno pitanje „Zašto PEG nije transformiran u Eko shemu, ugrađen u Pravilnik o IAKS mjerama 2023. i dat na moguće korištenje proizvođačima u 2023.?
Učinak saliniteta i alkaliteta na klijanje i rast korijena industrijske konoplje (Cannabis sativa L.)
Authors: Marček Tina , Spajić Laura , Moslavac Tihomir
Published: December 2023

Salinitet i alkalitet pripadaju abiotičkim stresnim čimbenicima koji ograničavaju opskrbu biljke vodom te uzrokuju ionski stres čime narušavaju ionsku ravnotežu stanice. Oba stresna čimbenika negativno utječu na sve razvojne faze, no faza klijanja je najosjetljivija jer klica dolazi u direktni kontakt s vodenom otopinom soli u tlu. Industrijska konoplja (Cannabis sativa L.) dobro podnosi salinitet uzrokovan povišenom koncentracijom NaCl ali je relativno malo dostupnih podataka koji se bave tolerancijom konoplje na različite vrste solnoga stresa. Sjeme kultivara konoplje (Santhica 70 i Futura 83) bilo je izloženo djelovanju saliniteta izazvanog otopinama NaCl i Na2SO4 te alkaliteta izazvanog otopinama NaHCO3 i Na2CO3 tijekom četiri dana. Obje vrste solnog stresa inhibirale su klijanje i rast korijena u oba genotipa u odnosu na kontrolu. Stres izazvan otopinom Na2SO4 nakon 2. dana uzgoja uzrokovao je redukciju klijavosti za 97,6% (Santhica 70) i 90,6% (Futura 83) te pokazao najniže vrijednosti germinacijskog indeksa tolerantnosti na sol (STI_G2) u oba kultivara, dok je otopina Na2CO3 nakon 4. dana uzrokovala najveću redukciju rasta korijena za 94% (Futura 83) , odnosno 95% (Santhica 70). Stres izazvan otopinom NaCl imao je najmanje štetne posljedice na klijavost i rast korijena iz čega slijedi da odgovor na solni stres ovisi o vrsti biljnog tkiva. Nakon 4. dana klijavost Future 83 bila je 7,6% (NaCl) i 13,8% (NaHCO3) veća od klijavosti Santhice 70. Nadalje, Futura 83 na otopini NaCl imala je veće vrijednosti STI_G2 i STI_G4 te 15% dulji korijen nego Santhica 70, iz čega proizlazi da tolerantnost saliniteta i alkaliteta ovisi o genotipskim obilježjima.

The Concept of Sharī‘a Revisited
Authors: Ali Ali A Rahim
Published: December 2023

Sharī‘a is considered as a central concept in Islam. The wide range of Islamic aspects covered by this term has led some scholars to argue that Sharī‘a and Islam have become synonymous terms. The terminological obscurity is further increased by the dual nature of Sharī‘a, where divine and mundane dimensions are both present. Moreover, the implications of this obscurity are observable in the ongoing debates about the changeability of Sharī‘a. Therefore, the current study attempted to demystify how a central concept in Islam, such as Sharī‘a, is so vaguely defined. It also examined different factors that contributed to this vagueness, for instance, terminology, history, and politics. However, the focus of the study remained most importantly on the dual nature of Sharī‘a, stemming from a desideratum for divinity and the inevitability of human agency. This obscurity has practical implications, for instance, the classification of banks' interest as riba (usury). However, a more general implication is the degree of flexibility in Sharī‘a, since changeability is proportional to the degree of divinity. Muslims need to have a clearer idea of what Sharī‘a is, to have substantial relevance in modern times.
Christian-Muslim Relations in the Second Half of 19th Century India in View of Syed Nāṣir-ul-Dīn Muḥammad Abūlmanṣūr Dehlvī (d. 1903)
Authors: Ali Farman
Published: December 2023

The current study examined the nature of Christian-Muslim relationships in 19th-century India. It is argued that their relationships were largely shaped in the context of the polemical debates that were developed to defend the teachings and tenets of their respective religions. Syed Nāṣir-ul-Dīn Muḥammad Abūlmanṣūr Dehlvī (d. 1903) was a polemical Muslim writer who wrote approximately 25 books in the refutation of Christianity. He also defended the religion of Islam; however, his work remains in oblivion. The primary objective of the current research was to analyse Dehlvī's major works dedicated to refute Christianity and to assess their significance. This research holds importance under two key reasons. Firstly, it sheds light on the nature of Christian-Muslim relationships during the 19th century and secondly, it highlights the significance of Muslim writings about other religions, particularly Christianity, in the modern world. The research concluded that while the polemical technique, due to its confrontational aspect, may no longer be the primary method of religious studies. The texts, however, generated through this approach can still be significant resources for students and academics since they offer opportunities for critical thinking, historical investigation, and a better understanding of intricate relationships that exist between religious traditions. Therefore, polemical writings play a significant role in advancing the academic knowledge in the field of religious studies.
Rethinking the Essentiality of Homo Islamicus: Exploring the Fundamental Critiques
Authors: Sholihin Muhammad , Sugiyanto Catur , Susamto Akhmad Akbar
Published: December 2023

This paper examines the necessity of homo islamicus perspective in Islamic economics. As such, it is a conceptual paper that emphasizes a critical approach to identify new concepts and critiques regarding homo islamicus. The conceptual approach focuses on theoretical analysis, in which the study aims to investigate the concept of homo islamicus and explain its logical implications. This approach enables the researcher to critique and identify a research gap regarding the concept of homo islamicus. The study highlighted several reasons, which identify that homo islamicus is not essential. Firstly, it was marked that the development of Islamic economics does not rely on the obedience and righteousness of economic actors. Secondly, as homo islamicus holds significant status, it should not be prioritized over other foundational concepts. Lastly, the study foregrounded that although homo islamicus is significant in its current form, it is not necessary to establish the basis for transforming the Islamic economy. Furthermore, it was also observed that it is still required in Islamic economics; thus, homo islamicus should not be the sole concept, excluding other relevant concepts for comparison. Additionally, this study underscores that homo islamicus loses its significance when it is seen as final and absolute; however, it may contradict the ongoing quest for the identity of Islamic economics.
