RETHINKING THE ROLE OF INDIGENOUS LAW COMMUNITY IN MANAGING INDIGENOUS FOREST IN JAMBI PROVINCE
Authors: Yahya Taufik , Syam Fauzi
Published: October 2018

This paper examines the synchronization of legal regulations in forestry, green farming, and mining sectors along with their implementation regulations. The certainties of the existence of customary law community in Legal Acts No. 41 year 1999 concerning Forestry does not give certainties for customary law community in managing forest in Indonesia. Meanwhile, Legal Acts No. 6 year 2014 about Village stresses out that there is a specific acknowledgement about local customary village as a part of Customary Law Community. In the Legal Acts about Village, the establishment of Customary Law Community is strongly stated in provincial government regulations. This paradox has brought a bad consequence to customary forest that is managed by customary law communities in Jambi province.
THE PROBLEMS OF LAW ENFORCEMENT AND IDEAS OF PROPHETIC PARADIGM IN INDONESIA
Authors: Heryansyah Despan , Hidayatullah Muhammad
Published: October 2018

Law enforcement portraits in Indonesia have not provided encouraging results. The reforms of 1998 in all aspects of the state including law have not always proceeded as planned. The fact that law continues to be legalistic-positivist is a major problem of law enforcement in Indonesia that never succeeded. Therefore, the reconstruction of such thinking model must first be done. As the law is not an independent entity separate from its association with other entities, however, the law is part of the life of society that can not be released away from social entities, politics and so on. The idea of ​​prophetic law is the right solution for the improvement of the Indonesian legal system. The prophetic paradigm is a set of theories that not only describe and transform social phenomena, nor simply change a thing for change, but more than that, it is expected to lead to change on the basis of ethical and prophetic ideals. Where in the basis of the conception of humanization, liberation, and transdensi as stated in the letter of Ali Imron: 110. The prophetic paradigm differs greatly from the positivist paradigm. The transcendence base, humanization orientation and liberation embedded in law enforcement will encourage its existence to always be total in making legal findings (ijtihad al hukmi) objective to be applied to a case. By making the paradigm of prefetics law as the base of law enforcement value in Indonesia, it is expected that law can really give a sense of justice to society which so far only limited to wishful thinking
On some implementations of solving the resource constrained project scheduling problems
Authors: Gimadi E.Kh. , Goncharov E.N. , Mishin D.V.
Published: October 2018

We consider a resource-constrained project scheduling problem with respect to the makespan minimization criterion. The problem accounts for technological constraints of activities precedence together with resource constraints. Activities pre- emptions are not allowed. The problem with renewable resources is NP-hard in the strong sense. We propose an exact branch and bound algorithm for solving the problem with renewable resources. It uses our new branching scheme based on the representation of a schedule in form of the activity list. We use two approaches of constructing the lower bound. We present results of numerical experiments, illustrating the quality of the proposed lower bounds. The test instances are taken from the library of test instances PSPLIB.

Género, diversidad sexual y conciliación familia-trabajo. Contrapuntos entre el derecho de familia y el derecho laboral
Authors: Faur Eleonor
Published: October 2018

Este artículo analiza el contraste entre la ampliación de los derechos de la población LGTTBI y la sombra maternalista que aún pesa sobre las políticas de armonización familia-trabajo. Recorre los avances en el derecho de familia, a partir del cambio de estatus de las mujeres y la población LGTTBI y explora en qué medida éstos han impactado en el derecho laboral, en particular en las licencias parentales para el cuidado de hijos/as pequeños/as. Argumento que el reconocimiento de derechos civiles de gays, lesbianas y trans coexiste con una legislación laboral anacrónica, que define y distingue responsabilidades en función del género. Todo ello da cuenta de un tramado de lógicas contrastantes en las regulaciones estatales. El derecho de familia, avanzando hacia un sistema de igualdad de derechos, y el derecho laboral, sostenida en una lógica maternalista, que no refleja las transformaciones atravesadas en el derecho de familia. De tal modo, omite el reconocimiento de la población LGTTBI, y refuerza las agudas desigualdades de género y clase

Constitucionalidad de la sindicación de las fuerzas armadas, de seguridad y policiales en Argentina: a propósito de la sentencia “SIPOBA c/. Ministerio de Trabajo
Authors: Afarian Jorge R.
Published: October 2018

Considerando la libertad sindical y agremiación como derechos laborales  fundamentales, realizaremos un análisis doctrinal, normativo y jurisprudencial de las razones por las cuales se les veda a las fuerzas armadas, de seguridad y policiales prerrogativas propias del derecho colectivo de trabajo. Entendemos que esto afecta directa e indirectamente el derecho individual de trabajo debido a que genera imposibilidad de negociar colectivamente y de lograr mejoras en la calidad de vida y de trabajo de dichos dependientes del Estado. Nuestro examen priorizará el análisis de la decisión de la Corte Suprema de Justicia de la Nación de la Argentina en el caso: “Sindicato Policial Buenos Aires c. Ministerio de Trabajo s/ley de asociaciones sindicales”, del 11 de abril de 2017. En esta sentencia es posible desentrañar resumidamente tanto las tendencias negativas como positivas respecto de estos derechos, por lo que la visión del Poder Judicial es crucial para su entendimiento.
The unfounded mass burials of the so-called Armenian Genocide
Authors: Atun Yurdagül , Atun Ata
Published: October 2018

According to some sources, The
Armenian Genocide Appeals (the so-called Armenian Genocide or the Unfounded
Armenian Claims) indicate that the Armenian deportation, which was carried out
by the Ottoman State in Eastern Anatolia for internal security reasons from May
to November 1915, was aimed at destroying the Armenian community in the region,
Millions of Armenians are alleged to have been killed by this reason. In the early years of the First
World War, the Ottoman State while fighting in many fronts with Allied Powers,
the Armenians attacked the Ottoman army jointly with the Russian army in the
region up to Central Anatolia in the East, and rebelled in many cities. In
order to overcome these rebellions, the Ottoman State held a joint meeting with
the Armenian Patriarchs, especially the Armenian Members of the Tanzimat
Parliament, and the leaders of the Armenian community, and informed them that
the Ottoman State would take countermeasures if the Armenians continued to kill
local Muslim people in Eastern Anatolia. On the basis
of this notion, the Ottoman State in April 24, 1915 arrested 235 people who had
organized the rebellions and closed down all the Armenian Committees and local
organizations that supported and organized the rebellions. The Ottoman State promulgatiated
the Temporary Law of Deportation, in 27 May 1915. Accordingly, it was decided some
of the Armenians in Eastern Anatolia would be displaced to Syria, Lebanon and
Iraq. According to the Armenians' claims, massacre and genocide were carried
out under the deportation title and 1.5 million Armenians were killed. This
article is about the mass graves of 1.5 million Armenians which would form the
basis of the massacre allegations, the size, how and by whom they were dug, how
the massacred Armenians buried and how the mass graves covered with soil. The
paper is written to investigate whether there are mass graves or not.
Education-growth nexus in middle-income countries: an empirical examination for schooling rates
Authors: BULUT Ümit , KILIÇ BULUT Ahsen Seda
Published: October 2018

The
goal of this paper is to examine the education-growth nexus for 5 middle-income
countries (Malaysia, Mexico, South Africa, Thailand, and Turkey) using
schooling rate as the indicator of education over the period 1987-2015. The
paper first performs cross-sectional dependence and heterogeneity tests and
then employs the bootstrap panel Granger causality test developed by Konya
(2006). According to the
findings, while there is unidirectional causality from schooling rate to GDP in
Thailand, there is unidirectional causality from GDP to schooling rate in South Africa.
The findings of the paper indicate that schooling rate is not a good proxy for
human capital. Theoretical and policy implications are discussed in the
conclusion part.
Perspectives in Professional Education: Reassessing courses required for admission to colleges of veterinary medicine in North America and the Caribbean to decrease stress among first-year students
Authors: Moore James N. , Cohen Noah D. , Brown Scott A.
Published: October 2018

OBJECTIVE To identify courses in which first-year veterinary students struggled academically and to survey veterinarians as to their opinions on existing prerequisite courses and proposed alternatives.

DESIGN Electronic surveys.

SAMPLE Associate deans for academic affairs at colleges of veterinary medicine and practicing veterinarians in North America and the Caribbean.

PROCEDURES Surveys were sent to associate deans of academic affairs seeking information on courses in which first-year veterinary students most commonly struggled academically. The 6 courses most commonly listed as prerequisites for admission to veterinary college were identified, and practitioners were asked to rank the relative importance of those courses for preparing students for veterinary college and to rank the importance of 7 potential alternative courses.

RESULTS Data were obtained from 21 associate deans and 771 practicing veterinarians. First-year veterinary students most commonly struggled academically in anatomy, physiology, and histology courses, but these courses were rarely included as prerequisites for admission. Practicing veterinarians agreed that anatomy and physiology should be considered as possible alternatives to 1 or more current prerequisite courses, such as organic chemistry and physics.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE First-year veterinary students commonly encountered academic difficulties in anatomy, physiology, and histology. Because few surveyed veterinary colleges include these courses as prerequisites for admission, many students were exposed to this material for the first time as veterinary students, potentially adding to their academic difficulties and causing stress and anxiety. To help address this situation, veterinary colleges might consider replacing 1 or more current prerequisite courses (eg, organic chemistry and physics) with anatomy, physiology, and histology.
Perception of the attitudinal function of intonation in responding to Yes/No questions: A study of non-native English language teachers
Authors: Madzlan Noor Alhusna , Mahmud Che Ton binti
Published: October 2018

This study highlights the importance of intonation and its function for intelligibility in communication, particularly amongst teachers in ESL classrooms. It was carried out to ascertain non-native English language teachers’ awareness of the attitudinal functions that intonation carries in responding to yes/no questions. Thirty Malay English language teachers working in a language centre were taken as the sample. Two different tasks, a listening test and an open-ended questionnaire, were provided to test their knowledge and perception of the attitudinal functions of intonation with regards to the responses given to yes/no questions. The findings from this study suggest that these teachers demonstrated an intermediate level of knowledge about intonation and its attitudinal function. However, they were in agreement about the importance of intonation for communication in classrooms, with students from various cultural and linguistic backgrounds. The implication of this study is that teachers should provide students with sufficient exposure to the proper use of intonation in order to avoid miscommunication. Students must be made aware that correct intonation facilitates correct interpretations.
Factors generating anxiety when learning EFL speaking skills
Authors: Hanifa Rizaldy
Published: October 2018

The mastery of communication skills is undeniably considered the most important aspect in modern-day EFL contexts. Nevertheless, becoming communicatively competent is particularly difficult for foreign language learners as it is influenced by a number of factors including affective factors. Among the several affective factors which affect foreign language learning especially speaking, anxiety emerges to be the crucial one that has a devastating effect on the oral performances of students. This paper reviews the speaking anxiety phenomenon in the field of foreign language learning. The possible factors that cause speaking anxiety to come into play are described and discussed in accordance with the central themes appearing from an examination of relevant literature. The central themes are (1) cognitive factors covering topics, genre, interlocutors, and processing demands; (2) affective factors dealing with feelings towards the topic and/or the participants, and also self-consciousness; and (3) performance factors concerning mode, degree of collaboration, discourse control, planning and rehearsal time, time pressure and environmental conditions. Understanding the nature of this anxiety and the sources it springs from thoroughly should help both teachers and learners to gain more insights and find ways with which to deal with anxiety in EFL classrooms.

Published: October 2018

This research aimed to find out the English language proficiency of the local tour guides at the Aceh Tsunami Museum, Aceh, Indonesia, and the difficulties that they faced in communicating with foreign tourists in English. A quantitative and qualitative descriptive research design was utilized to collect data in which an English proficiency test and an interview were used as instruments. The research subjects were 13 local guides working in the Aceh Tsunami Museum. Based on the results from this research, it was found that virtually all the participating tour guides were in the categories of very good, good and average.  However, they still experienced problems with several aspects of speaking EFL, such as expressing ideas verbally, poor collocations i.e. incorrect or inappropriate word choices, poor pronunciation, and lack of confidence when speaking English. It is expected that the results from this research will become a useful input for the management of English Education institutions for improving their instructional systems and for tour guides to continue learning and developing their communication skills, especially their oral English communication skills.

Published: October 2018

This study uses a case study research method with a qualitative study design. The aims of the study were to find out the domains of Acehnese language shifts in Langsa and the reasons why Acehnese teenagers are shifting their language. Five districts in Langsa, one of the cities in Aceh, Indonesia, became the research location. They were Langsa Kota, Langsa Barat, Langsa Timur, Langsa Baroe and Langsa Lama. The respondents were Acehnese young adults within the age range of 18 to 21 years old. There were 10 respondents from each district, making a total of 50 respondents. The instruments used in this study were observations, a questionnaire, and interviews. Simple statistics were used to analyse the questionnaire, meanwhile the data analysis for the observations and interviews followed an interactive model from Miles and Huberman, namely: data reduction, data display, verification of data, and conclusions. The results showed that the domains of education (30 respondents) and of friendship (27 respondents had the largest number of shifters. Meanwhile, the family domain had the least shifts, so it was concluded that shifts rarely occurred in this domain. Finally, there are three fundamental factors that influenced the shift: environment, habitual usage, and choice of language.

Authors: Sevy-Biloon Julia
Published: October 2018

When a person uses a language in an authentic setting, skills such as speaking, reading, writing and listening are naturally integrated to achieve communicative competence. Therefore, this research is based on the use of a content-based instruction model and the communicative language approach to teach English as a foreign language (EFL). The activities described in this article integrate language skills using communicative activities to learn and practice the present perfect and associated new vocabulary. All the skills were evaluated through qualitative informal assessments and quantitative formal testing to see if the chosen strategies could aid in attaining the goals set by the professor and could allow for authentic learning by the participants. This qualitative and quantitative research used 33 sample students, pre- and post-evaluations of all four skills, and questionnaires about the students’ knowledge of the present perfect post-treatment and the opinions of the students about the types of strategies and educational models used to integrate the four language skills in their classes. These results were then used to find out how these teaching strategies could aid in student teaching-learning. The tools used aided in the results were to find out how to integrate communication skills throughout the lessons in the classroom to allow for a more fluid and in-depth learning experience for the intermediate students that participated in this research done at UNAE, Ecuador.

Authors: Brito M. , Ramos A. L. , Carneiro P. , Gonçalves M. A.
Published: October 2018

Striving to improve productivity, industries have used different management approaches, being lean manufacturing the most used over recent years. Lean manufacturing is based on value creation for the customer and elimination of waste that occurs during the production process, while improving working conditions. The incorporation of ergonomic aspects in the workstation design also contributes for the referred objectives, since it will reduce awkward postures or excessive effort during work, leading to better working conditions and increased productivity. The present study highlights, through a case study in four production areas of a metallurgical industry, the benefits of using an integrated operations management approach to improve productivity and ergonomic aspects. Several ergonomic methods, such as Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA), Strain Index (SI), and Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA), were chosen to evaluate the ergonomic situation and lean manufacturing tools such as Value Stream Mapping (VSM) and 7 wastes were also used to analyze the systems and increase the productivity by eliminating several wastes. The results of this study show that it is possible, and desirable, to consider both aspects, ergonomic conditions and productivity, during continuous improvement’ implementations. In fact, the improvements reached through the advances in ergonomic conditions can contribute very positively for productivity increasing.

LBJ, LBJ, How Many Kids Did You Ignore Today?

The actual effectiveness of the American anti-war movement from 1964-68 and its attempts to sway the policy of President Johnson's administration on the topic of the Vietnam War is debatable. While popular myth has exaggerated the role of protestors in stopping the war, the movement failed to alter state policy on the war in any serious fashion. The anti-war movement could not develop a universal policy of their aims, differing from a gradual exit from Vietnam to a complete anarchist overthrow of the American system, and as such were unable to lobby the government effectively. Within the war itself, however, the Johnson administration and the United States Military encountered a stronger stimulus to reconsider their involvement: the inability to adapt to a guerilla war, the immense man power and resources required to ensure victory, and ultimately the communist Tet offensive of 1968 pushing American forces back. When President Johnson did seek to negotiate with North Vietnam at the end of his term, it was because America had simply failed to beat the Vietcong.

It argues that the aims of sumptuary legislation were threefold: that legislators sought to maintain the stability of the common weal through social regulation, moral regulation through the moralization of luxury goods, and to regulate England’s economy, by prohibiting foreign trade in luxury goods, in order to stimulate the home economy and the burgeoning wool and stocking trade.
One Step Forward, Two Steps Back: Boris Yeltsin and the Failure of Shock Therapy
Authors: Huygen Christopher
Published: October 2018

The collapse of the Soviet Union created unprecedented dilemmas for the leaders of the new independent Russia. Shedding the communist past, Boris Yeltsin embarked on an ambitious program to reorganize Russia‟s political and economic systems. Known as „shock therapy,‟ Yeltsin advocated a rapid transition from state planning to a market economy while simultaneously introducing democracy to Russia. Expecting a short period of hardship as economic reforms opened Russia to world markets, followed by prolonged growth and prosperity, Yeltsin‟s societal upheaval left Russia a prostrate state, mired in a depression that left many longing for a return to socialism.
Out With the Thatch and In With the Shingles: An Examination of Assimilation into Canadian Society, as Demonstrated by the Homes of the First Ukrainian Settlers
Authors: Koshelek Miranda
Published: October 2018

The concept of ‘the Canadian identity’ is a topic which has received much attention in recent decades, stimulating discussions on the topic of what makes a Canadian a Canadian? Today, being Canadian might suggest a love of hockey and poutine. However, a century ago, being “Canadian” was an emphasis on adapting or conforming to British norms. This paper will focus on one important theme in debates around ‘Canadianization’, specifically its reflection over time in the domestic structure of the  early Ukrainian settlers. Canadian identity studies can especially benefit from this trace of identity formation, by its application to a broader, multi-ethnical context.

Drawings We Have Lived: Mapping Desire Lines in Edmonton
Authors: Luckert Erika
Published: October 2018

Desire Lines are grassy pathways formed when many people walk the same way over and over again – exploring or shortcutting through city space. Thus, they display an urban history while shaping a space’s present as well. From May to August 2012, I mapped and documented Desire Lines in Edmonton. This paper chronicles my methods and findings, and situates the concept of Desire Lines in a larger theoretical context.
Ambivalent Blues: Woad and Indigo in Tension in Early Modern Europe
Authors: Iqbal Noor FK
Published: October 2018

In early modern Europe, blue textile dye was principally obtained from two dye plants, woad and indigo. Of these two dye sources, woad was native in the temperate climes of Europe, while tropical indigo became widely available only after Europe established commercial oceanic trade routes with India and the Americas. Indigo soon became a highly valued import, undermining woad production by unsettling traditional patterns of wealth circulation. Well-established woad producers took powerful steps to protect their industry, but in spite of their efforts, it ultimately succumbed in the face of indigo imports. In this paper, I examine the ways in which the long lasting conflict between the dyestuffs woad and indigo in early modern Europe evokes the tensions between imported and home-grown commodities.
“The Intersection of Realist Traditions and Modern Experiences in Vincent van Gogh’s The Road Menders of 1889”
Authors: Shepherd Heather
Published: October 2018

Last summer I was given the opportunity to work closely with an extensive exhibition of Dutch artist Vincent Van Gogh’s paintings at the National Gallery of Canada (through a class run here at the University of Alberta). I focused my research for the class on unpacking the significance of an unorthodox painting in the show entitled The Large Plane Trees (1889), which presents Jean François Millet-inspired digging figures in a markedly diminished and experimental way. Looking to the overt spirituality of Van Gogh’s personal writings, Van Gogh’s curious obsession of copying Millet’s agrarian figures, the influence of Ukiyo-e Japanese woodblock prints, and nineteenth-century politics regarding the depicting of the rural and working classes, this paper gives readers a chance to understand a small portion of the pedagogy, and aims of an artist whose aspirations have been wildly misconstrued by popular and academic media.

The paper "The Dirt on 'White Slavery': The Construction of Prostitution Narratives in Early Twentieth-Century America" analyses the development of white slavery discourses in Progressive Era newspapers, reform books and trial records. White slavery involved both gendered and racialized fears of coercive prostitution. These prostitution narratives are used to uncover early twentieth-century American  perceptions of appropriate femininity, inherent female weakness, and the sexual threat of racial and ethnic minorities.
Medieval rulers in their own right: case studies of Eleanor of Scotland and Mary of Gueldres
Authors: Atkin Lynn
Published: October 2018

Scotland is usually portrayed as being a country that had weak and terrible queens, like Margaret Tudor and Mary Queen of Scots. Saint Margaret is the only queen who is constantly portrayed positively. However, that is not because of her actions as queen consort, but because she was a devote Christian. Scotland is also portrayed for not producing well known or strong female rulers. This essay will examine two contemporary female rulers from the mid-fifteenth century, one from Scotland, Eleanor of Scotland, and one imported to Scotland, Mary of Gueldres. Using these case studies it will be demonstrated that Scotland did produce strong female rulers along with acquiring them.
The Fuhrer's Face: Inglourious Basterds and Quentin Tarantino’s Confrontation with Nazis, Hitler and Fascist Aesthetics in Hollywood Cinema
Authors: Leibel Conrad
Published: October 2018

This paper is an in depth visual and theoretical analysis of Quentin Tarantino’s 2009 film Inglourious Basterds. The central questions with which the essay contends are how Quentin Tarantino represents Nazis within his film, as represented by Colonel Hans Landa and Adolf Hitler and where the film fits within the American tradition of representing Nazis on-screen. Inglourious Basterds creates an argument that the Nazi regime itself was a type of performance; the regime’s politics are explicitly theatrical, and the only weapon capable of taking it down is an equally powerful theatrical machine: Hollywood.
