Adat and Islam: Examining the Sepasaran Tradition in Javanese Marriage in Boyolali Regency, Indonesia
Authors: Diana Isna
Published: January 2025

The Sepasaran tradition, held five days after a wedding, is an important custom in the community of Kembangkuning Village, Cepogo Subdistrict, Boyolali District. This tradition carries deep cultural and religious significance, fostering social bonds in the midst of changing times. As part of the tradition, a thanksgiving event (kendurenan) is organized, followed by the symbolic acknowledgment of those who helped with the wedding preparations. This study explores how the Sepasaran tradition is practiced in Kembangkuning Village and analyzes it through the lens of 'Urf in Islamic thought. The research adopts a qualitative approach, utilizing interviews and documentation to gather data. The findings reveal that the Sepasaran tradition serves as an expression of gratitude and a prayer for blessings following the wedding ceremony. From the perspective of 'Urf, this tradition is classified as 'Urf Amali because it is practiced consistently and widely accepted by the local community. It is also categorized as 'Urf Shahih because it aligns with Islamic principles and as 'Urf Khas due to its specific regional context. This study demonstrates that the Sepasaran tradition remains a meaningful and relevant practice in the community, reflecting local wisdom and a harmonious relationship between culture and religion. It highlights how the tradition continues to strengthen social ties while staying in harmony with Islamic values

Authors: Regita Ria , Huda Qomarul , Mu'allifin Darin Arif
Published: January 2025

This research looks at Sharia banking rules from the point of view of Sharia economic philosophy. It focuses on the ideas of maqāid syarīʿah, which are the main goals or principles of Islamic law that are meant to improve people's lives and make things fair. The study employs a mixed-method approach, integrating normative legal analysis with the maqāṣid syarīʿah framework as defined by classical and modern Islamic thinkers. A lot of primary and secondary sources were looked at to get the information. These included fiqh books, academic journals, and scholarly articles about the rules of maqāid syarīʿah and how the law works. The findings indicate that the implementation of maqāṣid syarīʿah in legal evolution transcends mere compliance with religious duties. It encompasses safeguarding five essential aims (dharuriyyat): religion, life, intellect, lineage, and property. The research illustrates that laws derived from maqāṣid syarīʿah not only guarantee lasting justice but also display adaptability to societal changes while maintaining the fundamental principles of Islamic law. This research adopts an interdisciplinary approach that connects ancient Islamic jurisprudence with modern legal concerns, especially within the Sharia banking sector. The paper gives a new perspective on how Islamic legal principles can help make Sharia banking rules that are flexible and can be used by everyone by basing its research on maqāid syarīʿah. What this shows is that maqāid syarīʿah can improve modern legal systems by combining Islamic values with basic human rights to create a more dynamic and fair financial system.

Understanding State Dysfunctionality: The Role of Political Elites in South Sudanese State-crafting and Failure
Authors: Chol Riak Jacob Dut
Published: January 2025

State crafting, dysfunctionality and failure is an interesting and an emerging area in political studies as well as international affairs. This area has been remotely examined by both African and Western scholars. The paper comprehensively examined state dysfunctionality in the context of state failure of South Sudan. The paper conceptualized state dysfunctionality as inability of the state to perform its functions of service delivery of public goods and particularly, security to its own citizens. While the paper surveyed the role of political elites in understanding state-crafting and failure of South Sudan, empirically, its argues that South Sudanese political elites, particularly, from Sudan Peoples’ Liberation Movement (SPLM) and Sudan People’s Liberation Army (SPLA) known today as South Sudanese People Defense Forces (SSPDF) have contributed to South Sudanese state failure than crafting. This is demonstrated through elites struggle over power, secretive ethnic politics and rewarding rebellions, corruption and resources usurp and protracted conflicts. The paper deployed primary and secondary sources in tapping the understanding of South Sudanese political elites in state-crafting and failure. It combines case study and process tracing methods to contextualize and validate causal chains and empirical casual processes. The study used a sample size of 200 respondents with persuasive and cluster sampling in understanding state dysfunctionality, the role political elites in South Sudanese state-crafting and failure. The findings indicated that political elites from Government of South Sudan and particularly, the party with majority seats in the government, SPLM and military wing, SPLA aka SSPDF have led to South Sudanese state failure. The tribal outfits such as the Jieng Council of Elders (JCE) have had a big hand in South Sudanese state failure. Finally, the paper draws conclusions that reversing South Sudanese state failure requires the political elites, the SPLM to eschew zero-sum power struggle, rent seeking rebellions, secretive ethnic politics, conflicts and corruption. This demands adherence to institutionalism and visionary leadership. The paper recommends further research to SPLM and SPLA elites to reverse state failure and rescue South Sudan from collapse.

Este artículo examina las transformaciones del Poder Judicial venezolano entre los años 1999 y 2001. Con base en esto, se enfoca en la relación entre el proceso constituyente, la promulgación de la nueva Constitución y el papel de la Justicia venezolana durante el proceso político desencadenado por Hugo Chávez en su primer mandato. Se analiza la reestructuración de la Suprema Corte, asociándola a un nuevo equilibrio de poder, tanto desde el punto de vista material como formal. Ante lo expuesto, se defiende que es a partir de este momento que se pueden comprender los eventos políticos que posteriormente ocurrieron en Venezuela. El estudio discute el impacto de estos cambios en la democracia de Venezuela, especialmente en lo que respecta a la garantía del Estado de Derecho, la separación de poderes y los derechos fundamentales.
La prensa política en la legitimación de la represión estatal en la segunda mitad del siglo XX en América Latina
Authors:   Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (FFyL-UNAM), Gil Pérez Anderson Paul
Published: January 2025

El presente artículo es una revisión historiográfica sobre el papel de la prensa política en la legitimación de la represión estatal en América Latina durante la segunda mitad del siglo XX. A partir del análisis de estudios en los campos de la historia política y las ciencias de la comunicación, se revisa cómo los impresos participaron en la construcción de discursos que justificaron la violencia estatal en contextos autoritarios. El artículo explora, con base en un acercamiento parcial y limitado, los casos de Argentina, Chile y Brasil, destacando los principales aportes de la literatura especializada a la comprensión de la relación entre prensa, violencia y represión estatal. Los resultados llevan a considerar algunas regularidades historiográficas: consenso de represión, articulación entre intereses editoriales y empresariales, y difusión de conceptos políticos claves, los cuales en perspectiva comparada podrían contribuir a una agenda de investigación más amplia, que incluya otros casos nacionales, y que amplíe el conocimiento sobre el contexto latinoamericano.
La política de asistencia social para la población sin hogar en la ciudad de São Paulo frente a los desafíos de los ODS
Authors:   Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP), Borges Cordeiro Diego
Published: January 2025

El artículo examina la Política de Asistencia Social de Brasil, con especial atención a las acciones dirigidas a la población en situación de calle. El análisis se enmarca en la Agenda 2030, diseñada para abordar problemas crónicos mediante los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS). Basándose en la hipótesis de que Brasil implementa esfuerzos específicos para este segmento como parte de su compromiso con los ODS, el estudio plantea la pregunta: ¿hasta qué punto estas acciones responden efectivamente a las necesidades de esta población? Para ello, se evaluó el servicio ofrecido por los Centros de Acogida, utilizando un enfoque metodológico fundamentado en teorías de las ciencias sociales. Los resultados revelaron que, aunque se cumple con las disposiciones legales, las acciones carecen de un enfoque centrado en el bienestar de los beneficiarios y de medidas innovadoras. La investigación concluye que, debido a la complejidad del problema, prevalece una política implícita de inacción que condena a esta población al abandono e incluso a la muerte en las calles.

O texto é fruto de pesquisa acerca da trajetória de vida de um sujeito comum intensamente mediada pelas relações que estabeleceu com Estado, com o propósito de compreender como lidou com as circunstâncias de seu tempo dentro do campo de possibilidades disponível. O método adotado consiste na análise dialética entre as experiências vividas pelo sujeito e o contexto sócio-histórico da sociedade fluminense no século XX, rede mais ampla onde se desenvolve a dinâmica entre os atores com quem interagiu. A trajetória de vida estudada é dinâmica, marcada por relações instáveis, rupturas e reconfigurações, interpretadas a parir do conceito de configuração social de Norbert Elias, o qual contribuiu para que pudesse enxergar as redes de interdependência nas quais esse sujeito esteve interligado e seus agenciamentos.
Com certidão de nascimento sou cidadão? A relação do registro civil com a pobreza no Brasil
Authors:   Universidade Federal do Pampa, Troian Alessandra , Queiroz Gonçalves Giovana Vigânico ,   Universidade Federal do Pampa, Rodrigues Antunes Luise ,   Universidade Federal do Pampa
Published: January 2025

O reconhecimento como pessoa natural permite o acesso às políticas públicas, as quais estão condicionadas ao registro civil das pessoas. Considerando a relação jurídica e socioeconômica do registro civil, entende-se que a pobreza e a desigualdade social são responsabilidades do Estado brasileiro. Este ensaio apresenta as medidas adotadas pelo Estado brasileiro na regularização da documentação e os efeitos da inacessibilidade aos direitos fundamentais diante da invisibilidade registral e da pobreza. O argumento central é que a pobreza, além de ser um fenômeno multidimensional, se agrava pela ausência do registro de nascimento, o que gera desconexão com o Estado. Em outras palavras, como agente decisório e formulador de políticas públicas, o Estado tem uma responsabilidade direta na provisão de assistência social aos setores mais vulneráveis. No entanto, a falta de registro e a ineficácia de suas políticas o posicionam como corresponsável por perpetuar a pobreza e a desigualdade social.

Las emociones en el discurso político y la decisión de voto
Authors:   Universidad de Guadalajara, Tlapapal Domínguez Diana Carolina
Published: January 2025

El presente artículo consiste en una revisión sistemática de las investigaciones principales acerca de la implicación de las emociones en el discurso político, conformando así un discurso emocional. A su vez, se abordará la dimensión emocional del discurso político en relación con la decisión de voto entre los electores, quienes apelan a las emociones por encima del discurso racionalmente comprendido al discernir sobre su decisión final. Las investigaciones analizadas destacan la creciente importancia de las emociones en el ámbito político y su relación con la razón como elementos movilizadores en la decisión del voto. Estudios como los de Ahuactzin y Mendieta abordan cómo el discurso político, apeló a emociones clave para movilizar al electorado, mientras que otros, como los de Cárdenas y Lozano (2020), se enfocan en el uso de frases específicas para activar emociones dirigidas. En general, se evidencia que las emociones no solo son fundamentales en la decisión electoral, sino que operan de manera complementaria con la racionalidad, subrayando la necesidad de estudios más integrales en este campo emergente.
Caos, golpe parlamentar e populismo: desafios e obstáculos da democracia contemporânea
Authors:   Universidade de São Paulo, Marchesan Tauil Rafael
Published: January 2025

Este artigo examina transformações na democracia moderna a partir das ideias de Pierre Rosanvallon, Wanderley Guilherme dos Santos e Giuliano Da Empoli. Os três autores argumentam que a democracia enfrenta alterações significativas que podem ameaçar seu funcionamento. Rosanvallon, em O século do populismo (2021), discute a indeterminação e mutação democráticas, enquanto Santos, em Democracia impedida (2017), e Empoli, em Os engenheiros do caos (2024), analisam fenômenos específicos, como o golpe parlamentar e a engenharia do caos. Rosanvallon adota uma visão ampla, tratando a democracia como um todo dinâmico, enquanto Santos e Empoli focam em elementos isolados que desafiam sua estabilidade. O artigo propõe que esses fenômenos, embora comprometam a democracia, não impedem sua continuidade, sendo formas de indeterminação democrática no contexto político atual.
Afectividad, género y cuidados en el dispositivo emergente de búsquedas de personas desaparecidas en México
Authors:   Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana, Dardón Galicia José Luis
Published: January 2025

El artículo analiza los procesos de búsqueda de personas desaparecidas en México, desde
un dispositivo emergente de búsquedas contenido de tres componentes fundamentales:
afectividad, género y cuidado. Estos componentes permiten acercarse a tres expresiones
organizativas de la búsqueda. La colectividad, entendida como un proceso dinámico de
intercambio afectivo; la autonomía que se manifiesta cuando las personas buscadoras se
organizan y gestionan recursos de manera independiente, distanciándose de la burocracia
estatal, y construyen redes afectivas y de cuidado que sostienen el proceso; y la resistencia,
tanto en el ámbito público como personal, se expresa como una respuesta política y afectiva
frente a la violencia y las estructuras de poder, con un énfasis particular en el protagonismo de
las mujeres. El artículo subraya cómo estos componentes, dentro del dispositivo emergente
de búsqueda, permiten resignificar las relaciones sociales y construir nuevas formas de acción
colectiva que desafían las respuestas institucionales y estatales.

Published: January 2025

Located in the subduction zone of four tectonic plates, the high occurrence of seismic events is a severe threat in Indonesia. Mitigating the adverse effects of such disasters is essential to forecast the likelihood of future earthquakes. Consequently, developing a robust method of forecasting future earthquakes is critical to facilitate prevention and mitigation efforts. A reliable earthquake prediction method is necessary to reduce the after-effects to the greatest extent possible. This study utilises historical seismic and proposes innovative data pre-processing methods using K-means clustering to build a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) model for earthquake forecasting to overcome high-disparity locations. Four LSTM layers are embedded with adjusted fine-tuned network hyperparameters to enhance forecasting accuracy. The results attain 0.379816, 0.616292, and 0.414586 for Mean Square Error (MSE), Root MSE, and Mean Absolute Error, respectively, providing significant insights into earthquake prediction. In addition, predicted seismic occurrences are plotted on a map to display their geographic location within the specified research region. This research provides significant value in facilitating the efficient distribution of resources, such as evacuating residents impacted by earthquakes or reinforcing buildings and infrastructure, for emergency responders and policymakers.
Mutable Composite Firefly Algorithm for Microarray-Based Cancer Classification
Authors: Fajila Fathima , Yusof Yuhanis
Published: January 2025

Microarray-based cancer biomarker detection is one of the popular trends for cancer classification. Though existing approaches have given competing performance in terms of classification accuracy and reduced feature subsets, the classification of different cancer microarray datasets still requires improvements. Recently, the swarm-based hybrid algorithms have given significant performance in cancer classification. However, the efficiency of a swarm algorithm is dominated by certain factors such as fitness value, convergence, exploration, and exploitation capabilities. Thus, a swarm-based hybrid approach is proposed for cancer classification with a new variant of the Firefly Algorithm (FA) and Correlation-based Feature Selection (CFS) filter. The slow convergence issue in the FA is resolved by non-fixed size solutions termed as mutable size solutions and a composite position update function is designed for the mutable solutions. In addition, the local optima issue is overcome by the population reinitialisation method. The proposed algorithm, named the CFS-Mutable Composite Firefly Algorithm (CFS-MCFA), is evaluated based on two metrics, namely classification accuracy and genes subset size, using a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier. Results show that CFS-MCFA-SVM achieved 100% accuracy with only a few biomarkers for all four cancer microarray datasets, indicating the efficiency and the competing performance of the proposed algorithm in biomarker detection for microarray-based cancer classification. Apart from that, the proposed algorithm would also contribute to cancer-related issues upon verifying the relevancy of particular genes via technical analysis from a medical perspective and would be utilised in feature selection applications.

Unlocking Potential: Strategies for Recruiting and Supporting Veterans on the Path to Success in College
Authors: Henderson Latosha R. , Watkins Kurtis D.
Published: January 2025

Higher education in the United States is currently grappling with two significant challenges that threaten its sustainability: the repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has led to a decline in enrollments, and the 2023 Supreme Court decision to prohibit affirmative action in college admissions. This essay explores how these challenges affect student success and diversity, equity, and inclusion principles, emphasizing the urgent need for innovative recruitment of underrepresented student groups. Veterans, specifically those with some college credit but no credential (VSCNC), represent a promising yet overlooked demographic within traditional recruitment strategies. According to the National Student Clearinghouse, over 40 million adults in the United States belong to the “some college, no credential” group. Notably, 76% of post-9/11 veterans have some college credit but lack a bachelor’s degree (Hill et al., 2019). This essay emphasizes the necessity of developing tailored strategies to support VSCNC, a group that has been historically underrepresented in higher education despite their significant educational resources, skills, and abilities to perform well and succeed in college. By addressing barriers and leveraging veterans’ diverse perspectives, institutions can improve recruitment and academic success, fostering a more inclusive and equitable educational environment.
More Than Numbers: The Relationship Between Belonging and Engagement in an Introductory Statistics Course
Authors: Pressimone Beckowski Catherine , Torsney Benjamin M.
Published: January 2025

More college students from diverse backgrounds and disciplines are enrolling in introductory statistics courses. In these courses, active learning, collaborative projects, and relatable content can help to support student learning, belonging, and engagement. In this study, we examined the effect of student-perceived peer, faculty, and classroom belonging on three dimensions of student engagement in a music-themed introductory statistics course. We identified significant models for each dimension of engagement: absorption (conditional R2 = .76, marginal R2 = .26), dedication (conditional R2 = .81, marginal R2 = .28), and vigor (conditional R2 = .79, marginal R2 = .25). We found significant associations between (a) classroom belonging and dedication, vigor, and absorption, and (b) faculty belonging and absorption. The absorption model demonstrated a significant interaction, with students’ sense of faculty belonging declining over time. Qualitatively, students perceived the course theme, instructors, and peer collaboration as supportive. Implications suggest that instructors can take creative, high-impact approaches to teaching introductory statistics. Fostering students’ engagement and belonging may help to offset students’ anxiety or disinterest and help them to become more autonomous learners.
Changes in Subbaccalaureate Career and Technical Education Attainment Over Time and Across "Special Populations"
Authors: Sublett Cameron , Plasman Jay
Published: January 2025

Recent changes to federal career and technical education (CTE) policy have emphasized the importance of closing access and success gaps in postsecondary CTE among “special” student populations including low-income students, racially minoritized students, students with disabilities, and student groups historically underrepresented in nontraditional educational pipelines. Using two nationally representative samples of first-time, subbaccalaureate students, the current study sought to assess the degree to which certificate and associate degree completions in CTE areas of study have changed over time and the degree to which changes over time are moderated by special population membership. Overall, there is some evidence to suggest CTE completions have changed materially over time; however, we find considerable variation across CTE clusters and special populations.

Background The number of people living with multiple chronic conditions in sub-Saharan Africa is increasing, but health facilities are unable to meet demand. To improve health system capacity and access to care, community models of HIV care have been trialled in countries such as Tanzania and Uganda. However, no evidence exists to inform policymakers on the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of integrated community-based models of care for HIV and chronic non-communicable conditions. This protocol outlines a within-trial economic evaluation to address this gap. Methods & analysis We will estimate the costs and cost-effectiveness of integrated community-based care for HIV, hypertension and diabetes compared with facility-based care within the INTE-COMM pragmatic cluster-randomised trial in Tanzania and Uganda. Analyses will adopt a 52-week time horizon, the duration of trial follow-up. The full enrolled trial sample will be analysed from a societal perspective, comprising provider and patient perspectives. Economic costs will be estimated, which includes valuing inputs such as donated goods or time foregone by participants because of receiving care. For provider costs, participant case report forms will inform resource use along with data from facilities and community sites. Resources will be valued using project accounts, facility spending, and locally available cost data. Patient costs will be estimated based on a care-seeking and cost questionnaire administered to participants. Estimated costs will be analysed with co-primary trial outcomes on plasma viral load suppression, glycaemia and blood pressure control to calculate incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICER). We will also calculate ICERs for secondary trial outcomes related to health-related quality of life and wellbeing. Cost drivers and outcomes will be varied within confidence bounds in a two-way sensitivity analysis. We will investigate equity impact by estimating the mean difference in outcomes between integrated community-based and facility-based care across household socio-economic quintiles and by measuring whether participants incurred catastrophic health expenditures.

In recent years, the issue of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has received increasing interest from various entities in the socio-economic environment. Universities are recognized as entities that play a special role in popularizing the SDGs, and they are also expected to practically implement the SDGs within their own domains. Therefore, universities undertake tasks aimed at achieving the SDGs. The aim of this article is to examine the approach of Polish universities to the implementation of the SDGs by analyzing the content of four Directories of Social Responsibility Practices of Universities in Poland. Specifically, it is examined which SDGs Polish universities focus on, whether this focus changes over time, and whether universities that regularly report their best practices in these directories undertake other actions to achieve the SDGs.
