Published: July 2024

Dalam studi kebijakan publik, proses perumusan kebijakan dapat dilihat dari dua sudut pandang, yaitu sudut pandang administrasi dan sudut pandang politik. Sudut pandang administrasi menjelaskan tahapan-tahapan perumusan kebijakan. Sudut pandang politik menjelaskan pengambilan keputusan dalam proses kebijakan yang melibatkan banyak aktor-aktor kebijakan. Penelitian ini berfokus membahas proses perumusan kebijakan tarif taksi online di Sulawesi Selatan. Terdapat banyak pro-kontra pada hasil kebijakan ini. Hal itu menunjukkan adanya masalah dalam perumusan kebijakan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan dan menganalisis bagaimana peran multi aktor dalam proses perumusan kebijakan Tarif Taksi Online di Sulawesi Selatan. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif bersifat deskriptif dengan sumber data primer diperoleh melalui observasi dan wawancara. Adapun data sekunder diperoleh dari data Pemerintah Sulawesi Selatan, Dinas Perhubungan Provinsi Sulawesi Selatan dan DPRD Komisi D Provinsi Sulawesi Selatan. Penelitian ini menggunakan analisis teori Jaringan Aktor Kebijakan Kingdon (2014) yang terdiri dari 2 klasifikasi aktor, yakni aktor government dan aktor outside government. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan perumusan kebijakan tarif batas bawah dan batas atas taksi online di Sulawesi Selatan melibatkan multi aktor.

Published: July 2024

The study investigated the relationship between multiple taxation and business survival in Awka, Anambra state. The specific objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of existing tax policies in fostering a conducive environment for business survival and to analyze the coping strategies businesses employ in response to multiple taxations. A survey research design was employed on a population of 330 from 11 small-scale entrepreneurs in Awka Anambra State. Taro Yamane’s formula was used to obtain a sample size of 319. This study employed primary data gathered through structured questionnaires distributed to managers/owners of 319 Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) in Awka, Anambra State. The hypotheses were tested using the Chi-squared test with the aid of Statistical Package for Social Sciences V.22. The findings revealed that there is a significant relationship between the effectiveness of existing tax policies and multiple taxations (p-value = 0.000); there is a significant relationship between multiple taxations and coping strategies employed by businesses (p-value = 0.000). The study therefore recommends that the Anambra State Government should streamline and harmonize tax collection processes across different agencies to minimize duplication and reduce the financial burden on businesses, thereby fostering a more conducive environment for business growth and investment.

Published: July 2024

Manusia merupakan makhluk ciptaan Allah yang dibekali dengan berbagai potensi diri yang tidak dimiliki makhluk lainnya. Potensi ini dimaksudkan agar manusia dapat mengemban dua tugas utama, yaitu sebagai khalifatullah di muka bumi dan juga abdi Allah untuk beribadah kepada-Nya. Sehingga manusia dengan potensinya membutuhkan proses pendidikan, agar apa yang diembannya dapat terwujud. Seperti yang diungkapkan oleh Arifin bahwa pendidikan Islam bertujuan mewujudkan manusia berkepribadian muslim, baik secara lahir maupun batin, mampu mengabdikan segala amal perbuatannya untuk mendapatkan ridha Allah SWT. sehingga hakikat pendidikan Islam yang melahirkan manusia-manusia yang beriman dan berilmu pengetahuan, satu sama lain saling mendukung. Islam merupakan fenomena yang besar dan tidak dapat dipisahkan dari perkembangan hidup manusia di dunia yang telah mengukir dan mempengaruhi kehidupan manusia dan Islam adalah salah satu agama yang mayoritas diyakini oleh penduduk Indonesia. Agar Islam tetap ada di muka bumi, maka muncul berbagai pendekatan keilmuan dalam studi Islam yang selalu berkembang. Di antaranya pendekatan normatif, pendekatan filosofis, pendekatan psikologis, pendekatan historis, pendekatan ilmu sosial, pendekatan fenomologis, dan berbagai pendekatan lainnya. Diantara beberapa pendekatan tersebut, di makalah ini akan mengulas tentang pendekatan psikologis dalam studi Islam dimana pendekatan tersebut berhubungan dengan jiwa (kedamaian, ketentraman jiwa), sikap dan perilaku manusia dalam kehidupan beragama serta mempelajari seberapa berpengaruhnya agama atau keyakinan tersebut dalam kehidupan sehari-hari.

Barriers to Public Participation in Urban Green Infrastructure in China from Stakeholders’ and Residents’ Perspective, A Case Study in Yangzhou
Authors: Xiao Yiping
Published: July 2024

Public participation has always played an important role in urban design and planning. Urban green infrastructure is a part of urban planning and design. This research uses a policy review and semi-structured interviews with residents and stakeholders. The findings suggest that the lack of public participation in urban green infrastructure projects is the result of a combination of both government and the general public. Residents have low interest in participating in urban green infrastructure due to social cultural, public competence and lack of community spirit. Stakeholders have tried to avoid public participation in projects due to limited participation methods and limited project timeline. Citizen participation can be increased through improved technical support, media advocacy and legislation and regulations.
Broken Windows Policing and Constructions of Public Order and Safety: Based on the New York Miracle
Authors: Wang Jingjing
Published: July 2024

Broken windows theory, as one of the most famous and influential theories, was developed by JQ Wilson and George Kelling in 1982. Their thesis was that, if human 'broken windows' are not fixed, disorder will turn into serious crime because 'serious street crime flourishes in areas in which disorderly behavior goes unchecked' (Wilson and Kelling 1982:34). It was soon applied in many aspects of the society and most of them achieved good results.Among these applications of broken window theory, it has to mentioned the ‘New York Miracle’, which greatly dropped down the crime rate in New York in 1990s. But,broken windows theory is not simply applied in the case of New York. Instead, a variant of broken windows theory called theory ‘zero tolerance’ played a major role in controlling crime rate. Although ‘zero tolerance’ is similar with broken window theory, the prior focus on more on the law enforcement. The wide application of zero tolerance also triggers many researchers’ negative responses, who doubt the success of the realness of ‘New York Miracle’ and the validity of zero tolerance policing. Therefore, in this paper, we are going to analyze both the advantage and disadvantage of the zero-tolerance policing, and further discuss the effectiveness of the cooperation between the police and community and the situational crime prevention.

Challenges and Responses to International Investment Rule-making
Authors: Tao Zihan
Published: July 2024

The world economic pattern is experiencing a great change that has not been seen in a hundred years, and the construction and adjustment of the international investment rules system is an important manifestation of the multipolarity of the world economy, which plays an important role in promoting the healthy development of the investment pattern. However, in the process of development, the international investment treaty rule system is facing many difficulties, such as "fragmentation", too many bilateral investment treaties, intensified conflicts between developed and developing countries, and unsound dispute settlement institutions, etc. In this regard, the establishment of a "de-fragmented" international investment treaty rule system is a major challenge. For this reason, it is important to establish a "de-fragmentation" mechanism, reform the investment dispute settlement bodies and enhance the influence of developing countries, with a view to promoting the liberalisation and facilitation of international investment and improving the international investment treaty rules system.

Engaged and insurgent scholarship: a reflection
Authors: Ntsebeza Lungisile
Published: July 2024

This article is a rejoinder to the special issue that celebrates and honours my life as a scholar-activist. Rather than directly responding to the articles, the rejoinder traces my intellectual and political development from growing up in Cala, a small village town where I was born in the Eastern Cape, to how I ended up being the engaged and insurgent scholar that all the contributors proclaim me to be. The key point is that my entry into the academic world and where I am now can be traced to my involvement in organic, community-based reading and study groups in Cala and beyond, thus underscoring an almost seamless continuity in my intellectual and political work. Related to this is a reminder that rigorous intellectual activity does not happen only in the academy. None of the activists in our study groups was an academic. The flow of knowledge is not one-directional, where knowledge generated from the academic is transmitted to the wider world. Academics should accept that there is a lot they can learn from intellectual activities taking place outside the academy. Hence the importance of greater collaboration between university-based academics and intellectuals who are doing serious work outside the academy. Finally, this rejoinder is a clarion call to academics for engaged and insurgent scholarship: making a connection between their scholarly pursuits and the struggle for social and economic justice. The call is not about academics and intellectuals acting for and on behalf of the downtrodden, but rather for academics to conduct rigorous research using the abundant resources in academic institutions and feed its outcomes back in intelligible forms to the wider society as a way of developing the agency of the downtrodden to lead struggles for emancipating not only themselves, but society at large.

Oil palm, also known as Elaeis guineensis Jacq (Arecales: Arecaceae), depends greatly on the pollinating weevil Elaeidobius kamerunicus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) for fruit production. Despite this, information on the pollen-carrying capacity of E. kamerunicus is still lacking. This study assessed the pollen-carrying capacity (PCC) and pollen viability (PV) of E. kamerunicus in two oil palm plantations with different soil types in Sabah, Malaysia. The pollination contribution of adult weevils to sex and body surface area (BSA) was also investigated. Adult weevils were collected from both male and female inflorescences and kept in microcentrifuge tubes containing pollen grain germination medium solutions to assess their pollination contribution. Results indicated a significant difference for BSA between sexes. Mann-Whitney test showed greater PCC for male weevils than female weevils for FELDA Sahabat and Long Danau from male inflorescence. PCC for female inflorescence showed no significant differences between male and female weevils for both oil palm plantations. PV showed no significant difference between sexes but differed significantly between oil palm plantations due to better soil quality in clay textured soil. Based on the results, pollination contribution by male adult weevils was greater than female adult weevils for both plantations.

Heavy reliance on synthetic pesticides has led to insecticide resistance of pests such as the onion armyworm, leading to the use of alternative strategies such as biopesticides. While studies on the efficacy of these biopesticides on pest control and yield exist, their subsequent effects on the quality and postharvest behavior of bulb onions during cold storage need to be determined. Allium cepa L. ‘Superex’ yellow type onion plants were subjected to preharvest treatments of microbial (NPV crude), botanical (neem oil), synthetic insecticide (chlorfenapyr), and Farmer’s Practice (control) for the control of onion armyworm (Spodoptera exigua (Hubner)). Bulbs were then harvested at commercial maturity, cured at ambient condition (33.6°C, 48.5% RH) for 11 d, then stored at 4.7 ± 0.6°C, 91.7 ± 1.6% RH for 5 mo. Rheological properties of the bulbs after curing and prior to storage did not vary significantly across treatments. Stiffness, however, decreased by 50 − 70% during storage, with bulbs from NPV crude having higher values. Weight loss during the 5-month storage ranged from 10 − 12%. Pungency of the bulb increased with increasing duration of cold storage concomitant with the onset of internal sprouting on the 5th mo. Bulbs preharvest-treated with NPV crude had the highest pungency of 4.85 μmol g-1FW on the third month and increased to 6.72 μmol g-1FW on the 4th mo. The preharvest treatments nor the storage duration did not affect the total soluble solids content of the bulbs which ranged from 6.9 − 7.1°Brix. Internal sprouting occurred on the 5th mo at 75 − 100% but external sprouting was very low at 0 − 1.0%. At ambient condition post-storage, it took 45 − 63 d for bulbs to exhibit external sprouting after being taken out of cold storage on the 4th mo. After 5 mo of cold storage, bulbs sprouted after 6 − 19 d at ambient condition. New root growth occurred on the 4th mo in all stored bulbs regardless of the preharvest treatment. Disease incidence during the 5-month storage was 0 − 1.1%. The recommended storage is 4 mo for the yellow type ‘Superex’ onions with bulbs having a shelf life of almost 2 mo at ambient retail condition (33.6°C, 48.5% RH).

Solving problems requires the ability to recall the information needed and represented both visually and verbally. This information is obtained, managed and recalled through a system called learning style. This research was conducted at Asy-Syifa Al-Inayah Middle School, Jambi City, with the aim of obtaining a description of student representation in solving mathematical problems. Subjects in this study were selected using purposive sampling based on visual, auditory and kinesthetic learning styles. It is hoped that this research will provide benefits in improving mathematics learning. The results of the research show that the representation of auditory students and visual students in solving mathematical problems each fulfills three indicators, while kinesthetic students only fulfill two indicators of mathematical representation. In presenting information, visual and auditory subjects each tend to present it in the form of images (geometry or number patterns) and create situations based on the problem given. Meanwhile, kinesthetic subjects tend to only create images to clarify problems and facilitate their resolution. In solving problems, both visual and auditory subjects are able to solve problems by making patterns based on the problem given and making conclusions from a pattern. It's just that auditory subjects can shorten problem solving steps by using mathematical expressions. Meanwhile, kinesthetic subjects experience problems in solving combinatorics problems, where they are unable to present images or patterns that can help solve the problem.

Health check-ups play an important role in maintaining and improving the health of individuals, especially in rural communities such as Terong Tawah Village. These health checks are not only to diagnose diseases, but also to prevent diseases and improve overall health. The purpose of this activity is to provide an understanding of the importance of health checks for residents in Terong Tawah Village as a Vital Investment in Public Health. The method used in the implementation of this activity is a collaboration between lecturers and students of Politeknik Medica Farma Husada Mataram with Community Health Centre (CHC) officers who can increase the effectiveness of health checks in Terong Tawah Village, Labuapi District, West Lombok Regency, West Nusa Tenggara in January 2024. Blood pressure and blood sugar checks play an important role in maintaining good health, preventing chronic diseases, and improving the overall well-being of the community. By emphasizing the importance of monitoring these vital signs, individuals can take proactive steps to achieve better health outcomes, while community-wide screening initiatives can have a positive impact on public health. Prioritizing regular check-ups for blood pressure and blood sugar is crucial to promoting a healthier society. As such, increasing public awareness of blood pressure and blood sugar levels is critical to improving overall health and well-being. Education, early detection, and proactive management are key components in the fight against hypertension, diabetes, and their associated complications.

This study explores sustainable programs or actions implemented within the work environments of students enrolled in a Postgraduate Program in Health Promotion in Brazil. Seventy participants, primarily healthcare professionals, were tasked with identifying the sustainable actions during the Health Promotion and Sustainability course. Responses were analyzed using the IraMuTeQ V. 0.7 alpha 2 program. Of these participants, 15 individuals did not identify any actions, while 55 highlighted various initiatives. Key strategies included waste management, health education, promotion of physical exercise, optimization of food resources, composting, and conscientious water usage. These actions not only offer potential cost savings but also contribute to a more responsible utilization of natural resources and the attainment of Sustainable Development Goals.
Matching workloads ro systems with deep reinforcement learning
Authors: Hu Bing , Mason Nicholas
Published: July 2024

Along with the evolution of computer microarchitecture over the years, the number of dies, cores, and embedded multi-die interconnect bridges has grown. Optimizing the workload running on a central processing unit (CPU) to improve the computer performance has become a challenge. Matching workloads to systems with optimal system configurations to achieve the desired system performance is an open challenge in both academic and industrial research. In this paper, we propose two reinforcement learning (RL) approaches, a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) approach and an evolutionary deep reinforcement learning (EDRL) approach, to find an optimal system configuration for a given computer workload with a system performance objective. The experimental results demonstrate that both approaches can determine the optimal system configuration with the desired performance objective. The comparison studies illustrate that the DRL approach outperforms the standard RL approaches. In the future, these DRL approaches can be leveraged in system performance auto-tuning studies.

Use of plastic bags in modern life looks very fast, causing a higher level of human dependence on plastic. This is due to the fact that plastic is a practical wrapper or container that looks clean, easy to get, durable, and is also cheap. In Banyuwangi, in terms of policies to reduce the use of plastic bags is BWI MEDATIK (Banyuwangi Merdeka of Plastic). But in this case, there are still many people who use plastic bags. That is due to the lack of equitable socialization, carried out by the DLH government (Department of the Environment) so that the presence of plastic is still circulating in Banyuwangi District.  This research uses descriptive qualitative method, using observation data collection techniques, guided free interviews, and documentation. In conducting strategies to reduce the use of plastic offices, researchers used the POAC approach, namely: planning, organizing, actuating, and controlling, and using the SWOT approach, namely: strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. The results of the study are that the government does not provide evenly disseminated information about reducing the use of plastic bags to all communities in Banyuwangi District, so that many people still use plastic bags. That is because, the government has not issued an absolute policy on reducing the use of plastic bags, so the use of plastic bags is considered trivial by the people in Banyuwangi District.
