Constitutional Interpretation, Intelligent Fidelity, and (im)Perfection: on James E. Fleming’s Fidelity to our Imperfect Constitution
Authors: Flores Imer B.
Published: March 2017

In this Article, I assess James E. Fleming’s Fidelity to Our Imperfect Constitution. For Moral Readings and Against Originalisms. For that purpose: in Part II, I reexamine Ronald Dworkin’s “moral reading”; in Part III, I reevaluate Fleming’s argument both “for moral readings and against originalisms”, which can be characterized as “fidelity to our imperfect constitution”; in part IV, I explicit three very helpful dichotomies to distinguish between moral readings, originalisms and legal pragmatism aka living constitutionalism: (1) fidelity and anti-fidelity; (2) interpretation and non-interpretation aka (re)construction, (re)invention and (judicial) legislation; and (3) perfectionimperfection. Additionally, I reintroduce Lon L. Fuller’s distinction between “intelligent and unintelligent fidelity”, to point out the kind of fidelity that moral readers and everyone else must adopt: an intelligent fidelity; and, finally, I present my general conclusion.

Published: March 2017

Ringkasan Kompos dari limbah padat organik (LPO) perkebunan memiliki kandungan asam humat yang relatif tinggi.  Namun, metode ekstraksi dan karakteristik asam humat asal kompos tersebut belum banyak diteliti.   Oleh karena itu suatu rangkaian penelitian dilakukan dengan tujuan memperoleh paket teknologi ekstraksi dan menetapkan karakteristik asam humat asal kompos tandan kosong kelapa sawit (TKKS), kulit buah kakao (KBK), dan sisa pangkasan teh (SPT). Pengomposan dilakukan melalui tahapan pengumpulan limbah organik padat perkebunan, pencacahan, pencampuran dengan bioaktivator, inkubasi dan pemanenan.   Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa metode ekstraksi konvensional dengan larutan NaOH dalam atmosfer udara dapat digunakan untuk ekstraksi skala semi pilot.  Jumlah asam humat yang dihasilkan dari kompos asal TKKS dan SPT lebih banyak apabila dibandingkan dengan asam humat asal kompos KBK.  Waktu inkubasi pengomposan dan metode ekstraksi dengan gas N2 atau udara yang digunakan tidak berpengaruh nyata terhadap perolehan asam humat.  Pemurnian asam humat asal ketiga jenis LPO perkebunan dengan menggunakan kolom Sephadex G-50 mengindikasikan bahwa asam humat asal kompos TKKS, KBK,  dan SPT tersebut memiliki fraksi bobot molekul rendah serta didominasi oleh asam amino aspartat dan glutamat.  Konsentrasi asam amino dan senyawa karboksilat  tertinggi terdeteksi pada asam humat  asal kompos SPT.  Summary The plantation’s solid organic waste (SOW) composts contain relatively high humic acid  (HA) substances.  However, there is little information on extraction and characteristics of HA from the SOW-originated composts.  An investigation has been conducted to determine  extraction  and characterisation of HA from empty fruit bunches of oil palm (EFBOP), cocoa pod husks (CPH), and tea cutting residues (TCR). Composting was conducted using the method that involved SOW collection, shredding, mixing with bioactivator, incubation, and harvesting. The results showed that conventional extraction method using NaOH solution under air atmosphere  could be used for pilot scale extraction of humic acids (Has).    Amount of humic acid from EFBOP and TCR were higher than that of CPH.  The composting period  and the extraction method under air or N2 gas were not significantly affected  the amount of the humid acid obtained.    Purification of HA extracted from  EFBOP, TCR, and CPH composts by using Sephadex G-50 column  indicated that  EFBOP, TCR, and CPH contained HAs with lower molecular weight fractions and predominated by aspartic and glutamic acids.  The highest concentration of amino acids  and  carboxyl compounds were detected in the TCR-originated compost

Published: March 2017

The gaseous plant hormone ethylene has a wide variety of applications in agriculture and horticulture. Ethylene Response Factors (ERF) are the last transcription factors of the ethylene signalling pathway and control a large number of ethylene-responsive genes. Two Hevea brasiliensis ERF, HbERF-IXc4 and HbERF-IXc5, are orthologs to ERF1 a key regulator at the crosstalk of ethylene and jasmonate signalling pathways. These genes were suggested to play an important role in regulating latex cell metabolism in response to tapping and ethephon stimulation. In this study, transgenic lines overexpressing HbERF-IXc4 and HbERF-IXc5 under control of 35S CaMV and HEV2.1 promoter have been conducted. Transgenic Hevea lines were obtained by Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated genetic transformation. The somatic embryogenesis process was affected by these modifications. Agrobacterium tumefaciens genetic transformation procedure has been developed from friable callus line for clone PB260. Hevea callus was sub-cultured as small aggregates on paromomycin selection medium. Transgenic callus lines were established from sub-aggregates showing full GFP activity. Ten transgenic lines were confirmed as transgenic by Southern blot hybridization. This result showed successfully establishment of H. brasiliensis transgenic lines. Further plant regeneration and characterization were necessary to understand the function HbERF-IXc4 and HbERF-IXc5 in latex.

ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase) is one of the key enzymes in the starch biosynthesis. In many plants, the activity of this enzyme was reported to affect the yield and composition of the produced starch. This research is a part of an effort to develop molecular markers for early selection of high starch-yielding of sago palm. The purpose of the research was to isolate promoters of AGP gene and to analyze the differences in their DNA sequences between sago palm with high starch content (MsHS) and low starch content (MsLS). DNA was isolated and purified from the leaves of the two sago palm. The promoter region of AGP was amplified by Genome Walking technique. The specific primers were designed by Primer3 program based on the information of DNA sequence of AGP genes of sago palm from previous studies. Selected DNA fragments resulted from Genome Walking were isolated from the gel, cloned into E. coli, and analyzed its DNA sequence. DNA sequence analysis showed that one DNA fragment from MsHS  (± 1500 bp) and one DNA fragment from MsLS (> 2000 bp) were confirmed as a 5’ upstream of the AGP gene.  Further in silico analysis using MEME program identified various DNA motifs of cis-acting elements, which confirmed that those DNA fragment were promoter region of the gene. Preliminary analysis showed the differences in DNA sequences and motives of cis-acting elements in the promoter region of the two samples which might influence or indirectly associated with the character of the starch yield in sago palm.
Kriteria planlet kelapa kopyor yang siap untuk diaklimatisasi [Criteria of kopyor coconut plantlets ready to be acclimatized]
Authors: SUMARYONO . , RIYADI Imron
Published: March 2017

Kopyor coconut is a special coconut grown in Indonesia. Nuts of kopyor can not be used as a source of planting material due to its endosperm damage; therefore in vitro embryo rescue technique is applied to propagate kopyor coconuts. Acclimatization is a critical stage during in vitro culture of kopyor coconut. Experiments were conducted to determine the effect of plantlet initial conditions prior to acclimatization on survival and growth in ex vitro conditions. Five replications of 50 plantlets of tall variety of kopyor coconut with different shoot and root conditions were used in the acclimatization process. The coconut plantlets were planted on plastic pots containing a mixture of soil, sand and dung manure, and then placed inside a closed plastic tunnel.  The tunnel was opened gradually after 3 months and the plants were transferred to the nursery after 4.5 months. Survival frequency and growth (plant height, leaf number and shoot diameter) of the plantlets were observed after 6 months of acclimatization period. Research results show that the initial plantlet height and initial root length affected significantly the survival rate and growth of the plantlets of kopyor coconut during acclimatization. Other parameters of plantlet initial conditions such as leaf number, stem diameter, primary root number, and the existence of secondary roots did not influence the survival rate and growth of the plantlets.  In order to obtain high survival rate (84.7%) and good growth of plantlets during acclimatization, the plantlet height must be at least 20 cm prior to acclimatization.  Differences in root length on plantlets with the height of 20 cm or more, did not affect survival percentage of the vitroplants.

Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) is an important crop for sugar production. One attempt to increase sugarcane productivity is through micropropagation and quality improvement of sugarcane seedlings in vitro. This research aimed to study the effect of repeated subcultures on callus capacity for regeneration and plant survival in acclimatization phase, as well as the influence of suboptimum media on the recovery capability of sugarcane callus to proliferate in vitro. Fourth subcultured sugarcane callus derived from young leaves were used as material in this research. Basic medium of Murashige and Skoog (MS) added with 3 mg/L 2,4-D, 10% coconut water, and 3% sucrose was used for callus initiation. For callus regeneration, the MS medium was supplemented with 2 mg/L BAP, 0.2 mg/L IAA, 10% coconut water, and 3% sucrose. Study on the effect of subculture numbers consisted of three stages, i.e. initiation, regeneration, and acclimatization, while the study on resting phase or the use of sub-optimal media included six treatment media and two pathways. Results showed that the fifth subcultures produced embryoid callus (91%), the highest non mucilaginous callus (97%), and the highest abnormality rate (6%). Results from the suboptimum media treatment, showed that B pathway (4 week resting phase) was better than the A pathway (8 week resting phase), based on fresh weight and callus abnormality percentage. A and B pathways indicated that the growth of callus can be recovered when it was grown back to the normal media and 1.5D-MS treatment of the resting phase showed the best growth and appearance.

AbstractBanana (Musa paradisiaca L) cv. Kepok Merah has a high commercial value as it is used in food industries such as banana chip. Besides, Kepok Merah contains high B-complex vitamins that serve in energy metabolism and are important in the development of infant brain. The establishment of industrial plantations of this plant has been restricted by the lack of planting materials. This research aimed at ameliorating the capacity of plantlets multiplication up to rooting of this banana in a rapid way through in vitro multiplication techniques. Murashige and Skoog (MS) and Woody Plant (WP) were used as the basic media. For the initiation stage, the media was fortified with 0.2 mg/L IAA and two levels of BA at 3 and 5 mg/L.  For shoot multiplication, the concentrations of IAA as well as BA were increased. For rooting, 1 mg/L NAA or IBA was applied. The observations demonstrated that for shoots initiation, both basic media performed good results when enriched with 0.2 mg/L IAA and 5 mg/L BA. The highest rate of shoots multiplication at 6 – 17 shoots per explant, was obtained on MS medium added with 0.5 mg/L IAA and 5 mg/L BA.  NAA at 1 mg/L in MS medium produced more rooted plantlets, 3 – 16 roots per plantlet, than those of other treatments. Keywords: Musa paradisiaca cv. Kepok Merah, in vitro micropropagation, scalps.AbstrakPisang (Musa paradisiaca L.) kultivar Kepok Merah memiliki nilai komersial yang cukup tinggi yaitu sebagai bahan dalam industri pembuatan keripik pisang. Selain itu, pisang Kepok Merah memiliki kandungan vitamin B kompleks cukup tinggi untuk membantu produksi energi dan pembentukan sel-sel otak pada bayi. Pertanaman pisang ini dalam skala industri terkendala oleh kurangnya ketersediaan sumber benih. Teknik kultur jaringan diharapkan dapat menghasilkan benih secara massal dalam waktu yang relatif singkat. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah meningkatkan keberhasilan multiplikasi tunas in vitro hingga pengakaran tanaman pisang Kepok Merah secara cepat. Pada tahap inisiasi tunas digunakan media dasar Murashige and Skoog (MS) dan media Woody Plant (WP); ke dalam media dasar tersebut ditambahkan IAA 0,2 mg/Ldan 2 taraf BA yaitu 3 dan 5 mg/L.

This article presents the results of field research of two total stations (the park of geodetic instruments of the experimentally-technological laboratory of remote sensing and land resources monitoring of the Agrarian Technological Institute of the RUDN University. This article was written based on the research practices which the authors were in the Scientific and Educational Center of the Agrarian Technological Institute of the RUDN University. Electronic total stations, along with the receivers of the Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) currently is one of the most popular tools for the production of topographic and geodetic works. One of the important requirements of users for these surveying instruments - the accuracy of the measurement, which determines the accuracy of determining the coordinates of the turning points and the land area. The studies were conducted at a specialized reference geodetic network, authorized to carry out such tests, and is a benchmark tool for metrological certification of surveying instruments. For testing were chosen total stations that are most in demand in the production of topographic and cadastral surveys. The studies included a comparative analysis of the length and height of the reference sections of a linear basis, the measured electronic total stations; comparing passport data accuracy performance total station with the actual values obtained from measurements on the reference basis; Comparative analysis of the results of measurements of the lengths of sections and elevations of the reference line basis, with the reference values. The results of field studies have shown that the actual accuracy of the measurements performed by the subjects geodetic instruments generally corresponds to the values indicated in their passport characteristics. This led to the conclusion of the suitability of total stations for precise positioning required for receipt of geospatial data ensuring land surveying and cadastral works. Analysis of the results of geodetic measurements of the reference base segments showed the discrepancy between the increase of the increase of the measured distance. Fixed deterioration of the measurement accuracy in areas where there may be potentially interfere with the precision-guided sighting axis on the reflector.

El viaje del héroe al espacio monstruoso: metáforas de un saber biopolítico hecho novela
Authors: Arias Mora Dennis
Published: March 2017

Siguiendo el caso del comunista y escritor costarricense Carlos Luis Fallas, se estudian las metáforas políticas de lo heroico, monstruoso y animal desde dos ámbitos. Uno contextual, donde saberes como la zoología política crítica del liberalismo de fines del siglo XIX, y la biopolítica y su mirada al cuerpo monstruoso, se constituyen en significantes de esa metafórica. El otro subjetivo, donde lo heroico es la forma narrativa y vivencial de una experiencia militante y literaria. El Caribe de la plantación bananera y la novela social Mamita Yunai, serán los universos donde se entrecruzan las metáforas y la biografía.
El papel de la investigación teórica en la construcción del conocimiento
Authors: Barahona Quesada Mario
Published: March 2017

Los métodos estadísticos y experimentales de investigación han predominado en la producción de trabajos investigativos de la Universidad Estatal a Distancia (UNED); la metodología teórica -el análisis, la síntesis, la crítica y la reelaboración conceptual- permanece aún poco desarrollada. Lo anterior provoca, al menos, tres consecuencias potenciales: el empobrecimiento de los proyectos, la escasa representación de áreas del conocimiento que dependen de desarrollos discursivos y la escasez de enfoques multidisciplinarios, interdisciplinarios y transdisciplinarios. Siendo así, se considera que el desarrollo de la investigación en la UNED requiere de un fortalecimiento teórico. Se examina el concepto de teoría y se exploran algunas de las funciones y métodos propios de la investigación teórica, con la finalidad de ofrecer elementos de juicio para promover la reflexión académica sobre su papel en la construcción de conocimiento.

Trabajando con población migrante en Costa Rica: reflexiones sobre la relación entre organizaciones de ayuda y las bases para la acción colectiva
Authors: Azofeifa Ramos Silvia , Caamaño Morúa Carmen , Matteucci Wo Ching Anna
Published: March 2017

En este artículo reflexionamos sobre las funciones de organizaciones de ayuda a migrantes, y posibilidades de desarrollar acciones políticas colectivas. A través de los seminarios de migración y subjetividad del Instituto de Investigaciones Sociales de la Universidad de Costa Rica con profesionales que trabajan en las ONG para la atención a inmigrantes, se pudo hallar que la priorización de labores asistenciales en las organizaciones, la lucha por el financiamiento externo, y las diferencias en el enfoque de la temática migratoria son algunos de los obstáculos para la acción política colectiva. Los esfuerzos de algunas organizaciones se enfocan en la resolución de necesidades inmediatas como la regularización, mientras que el fortalecimiento de la población migrante como sujetos políticos parece secundario y este es un aspecto hacia el cual proponemos dirigir el trabajo con la población migrante.
Reseña: ¿Hacia un capitalismo rentificado y patrimonializado? A propósito del libro “El capital en el siglo XXI” de Thomas Piketty
Authors: Vargas Solís Luis Paulino
Published: March 2017

“El capital en el siglo XXI”, obra del economista francés Thomas Piketty, presenta una amplia investigación sobre el tema de la desigualdad, centrada fundamentalmente en los países ricos del capitalismo contemporáneo, pero con una rica sustentación histórica que proporciona datos empíricos que, para algunos países, se remontan varios siglos atrás. Es un trabajo cuya fundamentación teórica es cuestionable, porque maneja un concepto de capital elaborado de modo desprolijo y porque se sustenta en ciertas “leyes” que, en realidad, son más bien simples relaciones contables cuando no meras tautologías. Sin embargo, la información empírica que se aporta es muy rica, ha sido trabajada con cuidado y rigor y ha alimentado un debate mundial de la mayor relevancia. Asimismo el libro sugiere tendencias de desarrollo en el capitalismo, que el autor a veces pasa por alto o apenas analiza, y las cuales, sin embargo, abren interesantes vías para nuevas investigaciones potencialmente muy valiosas.

Fruska Gora is a mountain located in the southern part of Pannonian plane and
it is poorly bryologicaly investigated as well as most parts of Serbia. First
data on bryophytes, for this region, were published in 1949 by Teodor Soska
in his paper Pregled mahovina i lisajeva u okolini Beograda (Review of mosses
and lichens in the vicinity of Belgrade). Soska listed 34 species of mosses
and 8 liverworts species for this region. Later, in 1955, Zlatko Pavletic in
his capital work Prodromus flore briofita Jugoslavije (Prodromus of
Yugoslavian bryophyte flora), stated 26 moss species and 3 liverwort species,
without indicating specific localities, but all of them were Soska?s original
results. In 1966, the second botanist with original findings of bryophytes on
Fruska Gora was Popovic, who recorded 2 liverwort and 19 moss species, for
this mountain, also without specific localities. By far, the most
comprehensive data were given by Cvetic and Sabovljevic in 2004. Their study
A contribution to the bryophyte flora of Fruska Gora (Vojvodina, Serbia)
counted total number of 118 mosses and 14 liverworts, on 16 localities within
National park Fruska Gora. The latest study on bryophytes of Fruska Gora was
in 2013, and it is the first and so far, the last study of bryophyte
assemblages on grasslands. Authors of this paper recorded 18 species of
mosses from 29 releve?. Complete bryophyte flora of Fruska Gora is still
unknown. Considering the fact that this is the region with high biodiversity,
dense hydrological network and a rather complex geology, Fruska Gora
certainly deserves further bryological researches.

The aim of this research is to characterize wild annual sunflowers on the
basis of achene micro-morphology. Plant material was grown up on an
experimental field of the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops in Novi Sad
during 2015. Achene samples were hand-collected at the time of physiological
maturity. Morphological measurements of achenes were performed using
stereoscopic microscope Leica MZ16 with Leica DFC 320 Camera. The
micro-morphological diversity of achenes was assessed using scanning electron
microscopy (SEM). Obtained results indicated the presence of some
quantitative and qualitative differences in achene characteristics among
analyzed species, such as in their size, color, carpopodium and stylopodium
shape, and distribution of trichomes on the achene surface. The carpopodium
of examined species was asymmetrical at the maturity. Differences in the
cuticle and wax ornamentation in different parts of the achenes, on the
anticlinal walls of epidermal cells, were identified. The SEM analysis
revealed the presence of non-glandular, multicellular bi-seriate trichomes
(twin hairs) on the achene surface. This trichome type consisted of two
elongated, parallel cells of different length. Considering the distribution
of trichomes among the apical, median and basal regions of the fruit, most of
the species demonstrated greater trichome density in the apical part.

The genus Hypericum includes over 500 widely distributed species. The main
representative is St. John?s wort (Hypericum perforatum L. (1753),
Hypericaceae), the only approved biological source of Hyperici herba by WHO
and EMEA monographs. It is frequently used in the form of oil macerate for
treatment of burns, scars, eczema and gas?trointestinal disorders, as well as
in the form of water and alcoholic extracts as clinically proved
antidepressant. Available data suggest that the amounts of secondary
metabolites in the plant vary depending on ecological factors of the habitat,
and consequently affect the quality of herbal drug. The reports show that
other species of the genus have similar chemical profile as H. perforatum.
But, there are also Hypericum species in which some of the secondary
metabolites of interest occur in higher quantities than in H. perforatum. As
previous data suggest, Hypericum hirsutum L. 1753, could be such example.
Therefore, the aim of this study was to chemically characterize
water-alcoholic extracts of H. hirsutum samples, collected at four localities
in Vojvodina (Republic of Serbia) by liquid chromatography (HPLC-DAD). The
obtained results suggest a good match (in a term of a presence of
investigated compounds) of previously published results describing chemical
profile of H. perforatum water-alcoholic extracts with examined H. hirsutum
extracts. Also, chemotaxonomic analysis showed variations in quantity of
secondary metabolites in the examined extracts. This opens the door to
further investigation of H. hirsutum as a new source of bioactive secondary
metabolites and additional markers in Hypericum chemotaxonomy.

The genus Juniperus L. (Cupressaceae) consists of ca. 67 species and 34
varieties. Juniperus communis L. grows on dry hills or mountainous tracts and
is widely distributed in the northern hemisphere. A typical variety J.
communis L. var. communis was collected in Deliblatska pescara (Deliblato
Sands) and variety J. communis L. var. saxatilis Pall. in Kopaonik Mountain.
Needle essential oils were obtained using Clevenger apparatus and analyzed
using GC/MS and GC/FID. Antioxidant activity of essential oils was evaluated
using DPPH assay. A total of 78 compounds were detected and identified. Both
oils are characterized by high abundance of monoterpenes. The main
constituents of J. communis var. communis essential oil were sabinene
(39.4%), ?-pinene (13.3%), myrcene (4.7%) and terpinen-4-ol (3.7%), while J.
communis var. saxatilis essential oil had ?-pinene (34.9%), sabinene (20.3%),
?-3-carene (6.4%) and germacrene B (6.3%) as the most abundant components.
DPPH test showed IC50 values 0.66 mg/ml for J. communis var. communis and
0.32 mg/ml for J. communis var. saxatilis. Although antioxidant activity was
weaker than used standards (BHT and L-ascorbic acid) it is still significant.

A recovery study of phenol with Polymer Inclusion Membranes (PIMs) needs to be evaluated to determine values of transport kinetic parameter, level of stability, and selectivity of the membrane. This paper describes results of the evaluation of phenol transport using PIMs with polyeugenol as a carrier. PIMs were made by mixing polyeugenol, dibenzylether, and polyvinylchloride in a solvent (tetrahydrofuran) then printed in a container with diameter 4.5 cm and allowed to vaporize for 72 hours. Further evaluation studies are conducted at pH 4.5 with various parameters, among of them are various times that were taken to identify parameters of the transport kinetics of phenol, membrane stability, characterization, and testing of membrane selectivity by comparing transport of phenol with another compound, in this study chromium is used. This study results in calculation of values of transport kinetics of membrane permeability obtained at 8.8 x 10-5 m/s, flux value of 9.512 x 10-4 g/m2s, and diffusion coefficient of 3.826 x 10-11 m2/s. Repeating use over three times, 48 hours, indicates reduction in power of phenol transport by 70.81%. While selectivity test indicates that membrane is used more selectively against phenol than chromium metal. Based on study results, phenol transport effectiveness using PIM with polyeugenol as carrier is 91.4% in optimum condition.
EDITORIAL: Independent journalism

Discussion about the role of journalism in universities too often leaves the impression that our main, and even only game, should be producing employees for major media corporations. This issue of Pacific Journalism Review assumes much more than that. The theme for the issue is investigative journalism, particularly material presented at the ‘Back to the Source’ investigative journalism conference hosted by the Australian Centre for Independent Journalism (ACIJ) and the Australian Broadcasting Corporation in Sydney in September 2011. This was the second regional investigative journalism conference; the first, hosted by the Pacific Media Centre, provided the theme for PJR (MIJT, 2011). These conferences, and indeed Pacific Journalism Review, are based on the notion that the goal of university based journalism is to develop links between journalists—whether full-time employees of major companies, freelancers, academics or students—in order to promote a more independent and critical culture of journalism in our region, without which democracy cannot flourish. This goal suggests a relationship much wider and more challenging than simply the production of qualified journalists.
This wheel’s on fire: New models for investigative journalism
Authors: Morton Tom
Published: March 2017

In the following pages of Pacific Journalism Review, the journal is publishing transcripts of Center for Investigative Journalism director Robert Rosenthal’s keynote address at the ‘Back to the Source’ investigative journalism conference in Sydney in September 2010; conference sessions in which Sue Spencer, Richard Baker and Nick McKenzie talk about their work on the Securency story; and Linton Besser and Dylan Welch of the Sydney Morning Herald describe their investigations of the New South Wales Crime Commission. Many other sessions featured at the conference; but these two transcripts give a strong sense of some of the new possibilities for investigative journalism, and of how investigative journalists practise their craft.
FRONTLINE: 'Blood Money': A NZ investigative journalism case study
Authors: Abplanalp Karen
Published: March 2017

Metro, the leading New Zealand glossy magazine reporting issues and society, published an investigative article ‘BLOOD MONEY’ probing the NZ Superannuation Fund (NZSF) investment in the controversial US-owned Freeport copper and gold mine at Grasberg as its lead feature in the December 2011 edition. Prior to this publication, the two Indonesian-ruled Melanesian provinces comprising West Papua on the island of New Guinea had remained largely ignored by New Zealand mainstream media for four decades. The mine has been at the centre of human rights and environmental abuse allegations for most of this period. In her investigation, the author sought to establish how the NZSF laid claim to being a ‘responsible investor’ while remaining involved in a mine with a long history of being implicated in alleged human rights violations and severe environmental damage. This exegesis considers the author’s reportage and methodology and how she included peace journalism concepts in the research and publication of ‘Blood Money’. It also analyses the public response.
