ANALISIS POLICY NETWORKS: UTILITAS DAN LIMITASI
Authors: MARTA AURADIAN , Agustino Leo
Published: July 2019

Permasalahan utama dalam tulisan ini adalah masih terdapat keraguan terhadap konsep policy network dalam studi kebijakan. Keraguan terhadap konsep ini pernah ditulis oleh Dowding dengan mempedebatkan policy networks sebagai Methapor atau Model. Untuk itu, artikel ditulis dengan tujuan untuk mendiskusikan perkembangan konsep policy network dan utilitas serta limitasi konsep tersebut dalam menjelaskan proses kebijakan. Policy networks pada prinsipnya merupakan sebuah studi yang berusaha menjelaskan relasi antar aktor dengan kepentingan dan sumber daya yang dimilikinya dengan tujuan untuk mempengaruhi proses kebijakan. Masing-masing aktor akan membawa kepentingan dan preferensi mereka dan terjadi tawar menawar antar aktor sehingga keterkaitan aktor tersebut membentuk tipologi policy networks. Lebih holistik lagi, utilitas policy networks diarahkan untuk agar mampu menjawab pertanyaan utama dalam studi network yakni bagaimana network itu mucul? Bagaimana network dapat tetap dan berubah? Bagaimana perubahan dalam network itu dapat terjadi? Sementara itu limitasi dari penggunaan konsep policy networks ini lebih pada tataran empirik yakni mempergunakannya dalam riset dengan kajian yang mendalam karena untuk melihat kompleksitas aktor, relasi antar aktor, dan kepentingannya tidaklah mudah dan sesederhana yang dipikirkan.

Does Sharing Leadership Actually Work?
Authors: Herbst Nathaniel , Rios-Collazo Carlos , Denison Jesse
Published: July 2019

Shared leadership is being utilized in increasing measures across a spectrum of organizations. It appears to afford numerous advantages within the context of the evolving modern workforce. Most of the studies on shared leadership have focused on its benefits, but few have considered potential weaknesses. This research sought to ascertain whether the benefits that have been correlated with this leadership model are valid and what drawbacks and limitations might be associated with it. This was accomplished by surveying prominent leaders from several faith-based organizations in the United States that utilize shared leadership. Thirteen leaders from 7 organizations were interviewed. An emergent design and a qualitative approach were employed, along with a purposive sampling technique. A descriptive approach based on semi-structured interviews was adopted to help elucidate the benefits and drawbacks these groups encountered. Ten benefits that were found in the academic literature had also been observed in the organizations surveyed. These included exceptional outcomes, enhanced decision-making, complex problem solving, creative innovation, team-member fit, team synergy, organizational vitality, healthy organizational culture, individual wellbeing, and sustained growth. Five drawbacks were also discovered. These included the difficulty of the model, a potential lack of follow-through, a possible lack of efficiency, a general lack of acceptance of the model, and the danger of immature or usurping team members. The description of these five limitations is a novel contribution to this field of inquiry.
Theoretical schools on employment and workforce
Authors: Béresné Mártha Bernadett
Published: July 2019

In the civil economics, like in the case of any other socialeconomic issues, there are two coexistent theories concerning employment. On one hand we have the classical-neo-classicalschool based on Adam Smith’s works. On the other hand we have the teachings based on John Maynard Keynes’ views. All the later hypotheses are based on these two trends.Monetarism, which was invented at the beginning of the 20th century, mixes certain elements of both basic theories. Those who represent monetarism agree on rejecting the economy policymeans which affect the processes of the workforce market, while they consider these above mentioned means applicable to regulate certain processes. By the end of the 1970s the neo-classical macro-economics had developed, which completely refuses these approaches. A decade later the neo-Keynesian macro-economics developed. Its hypotheses regarding  especially employment and unemployment lead to some of the employment issues of globalism, which is one of the most influential phenomena of present time.
The comparative evaluation of the preparedness and development of graduates
Authors: Bakos-Tóth Eszter
Published: July 2019

The skill of dealing with people was given a special importance by the persons interviewed during my examination by means of questionnaires although most of the specialist works Iconsulted did not pay too much attention to this fact. When asked about the particular fields of further studies, only a small proportion of the respondents regarded the development of theirpersonality important. I think to dissolve this paradox is necessary as without the development of personality it is impossible to improve interpersonal skills, that is one of the basic pillars of good performance at work. Regarding that it is the graduates who fill managerial posts, dealing with people belongs to one of their tasks.Among the respondents if the first degree were from a college and not from a university, the greatest proportion of those studying further would live in Heves and Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén counties. However, this connection cannot be proved in Budapest. Individual motivation is the main drive of studying further after obtaining a degree in a greater and greater proportion.The graduates’ studying further is significantly directed to acquiring extra knowledge rather than a totally new profession and they get a deeper insight into the knowledge necessary fortheir profession driven by their own motivation.

Authors: LEE Joo-Seon , AHN Suk-Hee
Published: July 2019

The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of moral sensitivity and moral distress on end-of-life care performance among intensive care unit (ICU) nurses in Korea. The study found (a) a significant relationship between moral sensitivity and end-of-life care performance (r=.22, p=.01), (b) a significant relationship between moral distress and end-of-life care performance (r=.23, p=.01), and (c) no significant relationship between moral sensitivity and moral distress (r=.14, p=.12). Multiple regression analysis indicates that the nurses with higher moral sensitivity and more than 37 months of clinical experience showed higher end-of-life care performance. The result of this study suggest that ethics education programs for ICU nurses should be designed to enhance their moral sensitivity.
The Autonomy of the Elderly in Constructing Medical knowledge through Digital Media*
Authors: CHOI Eunjoo
Published: July 2019

This paper focuses on the “medical knowledge” and “the elderly” that the autonomy of individuals who can freely use information obtained through digital media including the internet can interfere with knowledge collection. As the average life expectancy increases, the “Newly Elderly”, differentiated from the old age corresponding to the third period of the life cycle, are being reborn as the new economic subjects of the consumer market. On the other hand, problems that may arise in using health information through websites are overlooked because they are proficient and active in the use of digital devices. The main prior research was about health content strategies suitable for the environment of digital media and interactivity in websites providing health information. However, this paper is to present the necessity of literacy for medical knowledge by focusing on the web use of the elderly who have been granted a right position as a new consumer. There are prior studies that elderly people are still easily exposed to drug abuse and their degree varies depending on age, educational and economic levels, and residence in the metropolitan area. In this sense, it is insufficient to generalize the whole of the elderly, and to remain positive as a consumer as an economic entity, a selector of lifelong education as a subject of education, and a content maker as a culture creator. On the other hand, this paper points out the biased viewpoint of the media in which the elderly population is polarized by aging and social burden, and suggests the importance of medical literacy related to the life of the elderly. An empirical survey of data following the need for medical literacy and presentation of educational methods is left as a follow-up study.
Evaluación de cuatro distancias de siembra y dos de deshijas en pejibaye sin espinas
Authors: Bogantes Arias Antonio
Published: July 2019

Con el objetivo de comparar sistemas de producción de palmito manejados a baja y alta densidad de siembra se hizo este estudio desde enero del 2009 a diciembre del 2011 en una parcela de pejibaye sin espinas de la variedad Diamantes 10 con 11 años de edad. La parcela estaba ubicada en la Estación Experimental Los Diamantes del Instituto Nacional de Innovación y Transferencia en Tecnología Agropecuaria (INTA), situada en Pococí, provincia de Limón. Los tratamientos evaluados fueron la combinación de cuatro distancias de siembra con dos técnicas de manejo de cepa, para un total de ocho combinaciones factoriales. Para la producción de palmitos se analizó la cosecha desde su inicio (año 2001), la cual fue superior en la distancia 0,25 m entre plantas (20 000 plantas ha-1) con una producción promedio de 15 055 palmitos ha-1 y descendió conforme aumentó la distancia con un promedio de 9273 palmitos en la distancia de 1 m entre plantas. Se observó que independiente de la densidad, por cada 100 kg de biomasa fresca cortados, 80 kg se incorporan al sistema (suelo) y 20 kg se van en el palmito extraído. En las parcelas con plantas sembradas a 1 m entre sí, las cepas midieron 0,55x0,42x0,20 m en surelación de largo, ancho y altura respectivamente; mientras que en las parcelas con plantas de nueve años sembradas a 0,25 m entre sí, la cepa ya se había convertido en un surco. Se describieron los hongos Phytophthora sp. y Fusarium sp., los cuales son patogénicos al cultivo y otros seis hongos no patogénicos a las plantas de palmito. La cantidad de lombrices encontradas fue superior en el suelo de las parcelas con plantas a 0,25 m y disminuyó conforme aumentó la distancia entre plantas.

Dynamics of Agricultural
Productivity and Poverty in Pakistan
Authors: Turab Hussain S.M. , Ishfaq Mohammad
Published: July 2019

This paper addresses two topics which essentially compliment each
other. The first is the empirical investigation of the relationship between
aggregate agricultural productivity and poverty in Pakistan through the
course of time. The second is the estimation of the central inputs or
determinants of agricultural production, again on an aggregate level and
through time. The main empirical findings of this research suggest that
increases in agricultural productivity have alleviated poverty in Pakistan but
not to the extent to which the negative forces of a high population growth
and increasing food prices have worsened its incidence. In the case of the
determinants of agricultural productivity, the results show that accompanied
with the size of the cropped area, fertiliser off-take has played the most
significant and powerful role in increasing agricultural productivity through
time in Pakistan, especially at the onset of the Green Revolution __ the
introduction of High Yield Variety crops and seeds in the late sixties.
Human Rights and Economic Growth
Authors: Siddiqui Aziz
Published: July 2019

Is there a conflict between development on the one hand and
democracy and/or human rights on the other? The issue began to be
seriously examined some forty years ago1 and the controversy has simmered
because there has been empirical evidence to indicate at least some shortterm
validity to those who do see a conflict and press the primacy of
growth. They take off from premises like Einstein’s, “An empty stomach
makes a poor political adviser.”
Upgrading Pre-Literacy Skills of
Disadvantaged Children
Authors: Zafarullah Shireen
Published: July 2019

The First Step Towards a Combined Syllabus for all Children in Pakistan
Prescription of a common syllabus for all children in Pakistan is the
demand of social activists. The author feels that this is not a feasible
proposal at this time as there is a huge gap between the life experiences in
the two worlds that exist within Pakistan ---the world of the privileged and
the world of the deprived. Children of the poor fail to develop certain
essential pre-literacy skills (Zafarullah, 1996) and are therefore unable to
compete with their more fortunate counterparts. These underprivileged
children lack an orientation towards literacy
Private School Participation in Pakistan
Authors: T. Nguyen Quynh , Raju Dhushyanth
Published: July 2019

This study uses multiple rounds of national household sample surveys to examine the extent and nature of private school participation at the primary and secondary levels in Pakistan. Today, one fifth of children in Pakistan—or one third of all students—attend private school. Private school students tend to come from urban, wealthier, and better-educated households than government school students and especially out-of-school children. The characteristics of private school students relative to their government school peers and the former’s composition differ in important ways across Pakistan’s four provinces. Private school participation among children varies largely from one household to another rather than within households, and to a greater extent than government school participation. Private schooling is spatially concentrated, with a few districts (situated mainly in northern Punjab) accounting for most private school students. The spatial distributions of private school supply and participation are strongly correlated. In the 2000s, private school participation rates grew in Punjab, Sindh, and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and across socioeconomic subgroups, contributing in particular to the growth in overall school participation rates for boys, urban children, and rich children. Nevertheless, the composition of private school students has become more equitable, driven mainly by Punjab, where the shares of private school students from rural and nonrich households have risen.
The Determinants of Corporate Dividend Policy in Pakistan
Authors: Bushra Aliya , Mirza Nawazish
Published: July 2019

The objective of this study is to identify the significant determinants of firms’ dividend policy across different sectors in Pakistan. Using data on 75 companies listed on the KSE 100 index for the period 2005 to 2010, we find that profitable firms tend to give higher dividends than loss-making firms. Firm size has a negative relationship with the dividend payout ratio and dividend yield, indicating that, the larger the firm, the more likely it is to retain cash to pay off its liabilities. Growth in sales is positively related to dividend yield, whereby an increase in sales leads to higher profitability and higher dividend payments. Ownership concentrated within institutions (such as banks and insurance companies), the management/family, and individuals has a negative impact on the payout ratio. Institutional owners are more likely to retain excess cash and thus omit dividends, individual owners prefer capital gains to dividends given the tax deduction, and management- or family-owned firms avoid dividends, which lead to increased agency problems. Finally, the market-to-book ratio is negative and highly significant: firms with better growth opportunities rely on internal financing more than on generating external funds.
The Value of Export Incentives
Authors: Ahmad Imtiaz
Published: July 2019

This study develops a methodology for the comparative analysis of industry-specific export incentives. The impact of different export incentives extended to the textiles sector in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh is analyzed using industry-level data for the years 2001–11. Our findings show that Bangladesh operates a highly export-oriented regime – of the three countries, the value of its export incentives is highest. The study suggests that, in order to maintain its competitiveness in textile exports, Pakistan needs to enhance its export incentives, particularly for value-added textiles.
Why Scientific Research is Imperative for Entrepreneurship and Sustainable Development in Pakistan
Authors: U. Haq Bilal
Published: July 2019

Indigenous scientific research is vital for a country’s long-term economic growth. The simple transference of technology or acquisition of expertise ultimately has developmental limitations. Examples from the hydrocarbon industry clearly illustrate this paradox: oil-rich developing countries can afford to procure expert advice with ease, but rarely develop the new skills essential to make the next technological breakthrough or scientific paradigm shift. Underlying this failing is often the absence of a culture of open scientific enquiry. For resource-deficient countries, this is compounded by the dearth of infrastructure. Such countries argue that they cannot afford to finance scientific research, although this does not always require large investments up front. Software research and development is a good example, requiring primarily technical knowhow, skilled labor and a desire for innovative success. The deficit of scientific research in Pakistan stems from many of these factors, even though the requisite human resources are available in abundance. Innovation and entrepreneurship requires a special mix of encouragement and incentives from the government and industry. This paper outlines some of these issues based on the author’s experience of several decades of research leadership and funding in the US and Europe, and his involvement in transferring advanced scientific knowledge to developing as well as developed countries.
Measuring Technology Differences Across Football Manufacturers in Sialkot
Authors: Raza Tariq
Published: July 2019

A fascinating example of the fluctuating fortunes of Pakistani exports is that of the footballs produced by a cluster of manufacturers in Sialkot. Dominated by Pakistani firms, the sector is now under heavy threat from cheaper balls produced in East Asia (particularly China). What is striking is that the technology used by most firms has not progressed significantly in the last 30 years. This raises the question of whether Pakistan is falling behind the technology frontier. Using data from a sample of firms, we map the football production process and focus on different cutting technologies to compare productivity across firms and measure the benefits of upgrading this technology across firms of different sizes. Our results show that technology upgrading comes at a cost, but is worthwhile for firms that need to produce a large volume of balls. However, the falling demand for Pakistani balls may not justify this for most small and medium firms in the sector, which make up the vast majority of firms in the cluster.
Explaining Pakistan’s Premature Deindustrialization
Authors: Nazeer Nazia , Rasiah Rajah
Published: July 2019

Recognizing that Pakistan faces premature deindustrialization, this paper seeks to explain the phenomenon. The country experienced wild swings in industrialization during the 1950s and 1960s. The period 2001–10 was characterized by fairly strong growth, followed by contractions in other periods. Pakistan’s manufacturing sector is dominated by clothing and textiles exports. Periods of manufacturing growth were associated with pro-manufacturing and import substitution policies, while slumps were characterized by deregulation and a relatively high exchange rate. The evidence shows that the relative stagnation of manufacturing (regardless of the policies implemented) can be explained by the lack of a dynamic industrial policy targeting technological catch-up and leapfrogging. Moreover, where rents were distributed in the form of incentives, there was no emphasis on monitoring and appraisal.
Productivity Growth and Entrepreneurship in Pakistan: The Role of Public Policy in Promoting Technology Management
Authors: Hameed Khan Shaukat
Published: July 2019

Numerous public announcements are made regularly in Pakistan about moving towards a knowledge economy. These appear to be wishful thinking in the absence of any coherent understanding of the role of technology and its spillovers as major drivers of development and growth as well as lack of clarity about the manner in which science and technology are organized in Pakistan. Pakistan has not really been able to manage the major organizational changes brought about by the techno-information revolution of the 21st century. Its competitiveness is falling, organizational changes are slow and workforce skill levels are inadequate – all of which have stalled productivity and innovation. Pakistan faces a serious risk of deindustrialization unless the dynamics and disruptive nature of modern technology are better understood and embedded as a key pillar of public policy in order to enhance productivity and innovation. This article attempts to define the nexus between technology and entrepreneurship and show how it differs from scientific research. It also examines the role of public policy in promoting productivity growth and entrepreneurship through better policies in technology management.
The Productivity Growth–Technology–Entrepreneurship Nexus: Implications for Pakistan
Authors: ul Haque Irfan
Published: July 2019

Labor productivity growth has received scant attention in Pakistan even though it is the foundation of rising living standards and a country’s ability to compete in the world market. Productivity rises when producers invest and introduce new technologies to reduce production costs and improve the quality and range of goods produced. Competition among producers entails a constant search for areas of improvement, tapping new technologies and finding innovative ways to produce and deliver the output to consumers. This is entrepreneurship. The first part of the paper discusses productivity growth and its drivers. The second part explains the critical importance of technological progress and innovation in economic growth and the catch-up process. Entrepreneurship and how it might be stimulated in Pakistan is discussed next. The paper concludes with a few ideas on how science and technology might be promoted in Pakistan.

A Review: Antifungal Potentials of Medicinal
Plants
Authors: Murtaza Ghulam , Mukhtar Muhammad , Sarfraz Aysha
Published: July 2019

Medicinal plants have been widely used to treat a variety of infectious and
non-infectious diseases. According to an estimate, 25% of the commonly used
medicines contain compounds isolated from plants. Several plants could offer a rich
reserve for drug discovery of infectious diseases, particularly in an era when the latest
separation techniques are available on one hand, and the human population is
challenged by a number of emerging infectious diseases on the other hand. Among
several other ailments, fungal infections are posing a great threat to the mankind, as a
large number of people suffer from fungal infections worldwide due to emerging
resistance of fungal strains. The available antifungal drugs are either too costly or are
accompanied with several side effects. Of importance, a variety of medicinal plants
have shown promise to treat a number of fungal infections, and some of them possess
broad-spectrum antifungal activity. This article describes potential antifungal
properties of medicinal plants against fungi, and suggests screening the potential of
plants possessing broad-spectrum antifungal effects against emerging fungal
infections.
