Authors: Abdur Rozaq Muhammad , Asya Jasran , Novita Eva , Fraistifina Fraistifina , Priyanto Yuwono
Published: January 2025

Globalization and industrialization that link the ideas of capitalism are not under the ideology of Pancasila and Indonesia's national development is implemented based on economic democracy. The 1945 Constitution, Article 23A has established taxes as a source of funding for Indonesia's national development. The real threat of capitalism is environmental destruction and social inequality. This is necessary to counteract the negative effects of the influence of capitalism. This study aims to analyze the implementation of Pancasila ideology through the tax system to counteract the negative impact of the influence of capitalism. This research is legal and applies legal approaches and deductive analysis methods. The results showed that tax law contains legal certainty as a prevention of arbitrary practices and a form of democracy. The Tax Law contains benefits, by cooperating with every citizen to participate in the implementation of development through the payment of taxes. The Tax Law contains justice through the redistribution of income so that disadvantaged people can enjoy the same opportunities as those who are better able to achieve prosperity prospects.

Fee-Free Education In Indonesia: A Review Of Fifteen-Years Fee-Free Education Law And The Reality Application And Needs In Bantul District, Yogyakarta
Authors: Kramer Putri , Wibowo Udik Budi , Eveline Eveline
Published: January 2025

Fee-free education has become crucial to global efforts to achieve the Education for All (EFA) goals. This policy has been implemented in Indonesia through various programs, including the School Operational Assistance (BOS) and Indonesia Smart Program (PIP), to support underprivileged families. However, there still needs to be more funding that parents must cover to support their children's education. This study aims to evaluate the implementation of fee-free education in Bantul District, Yogyakarta, and explore the financial needs that parents still have to meet. The research employs a qualitative method with an exploratory, descriptive approach. Data were collected through interviews with parents, school principals, and teachers in 16 elementary schools in Bantul. The results indicate that the funds provided by the government through BOS and PIP are insufficient to cover the full education costs, particularly for students with special needs. Parents still face additional fees, such as uniforms, books, and transportation. In conclusion, while the fee-free education policy is in place, increased funding allocation is necessary to ensure that all children, especially those from disadvantaged families, can access quality education without financial burdens.

EXPERIMENTAÇÕES PEDAGÓGICAS COM LITERATURAS INDÍGENAS: TRANÇANDO NOVOS CAMINHOS
Authors: Moura Jaqueline Santos , Veiga Patrícia Regina Vannetti , Rabelo Ruthe Campos
Published: January 2025

This article is the result of a scientific initiation research project carried out at the Singularidades Institute of Higher Education over the course of one year. Its aim was to develop reflections, based on pedagogical experiments with texts authored by Indigenous writers, that could inspire a transformation in individuals through education, considering the conditioning effects of coloniality processes (Quijano, Gonzaga, Rivera). Using the methodology of weaving (Veiga, 2023), we created pedagogical approaches that fostered dialogue and recognition of the Indigenous origins and roots that shape the country, devising strategies to amplify Indigenous voices within school curricula. Law n° 11.645/08 establishes the mandatory inclusion of Indigenous knowledge and histories in school curricula, and under this framework, we sought to contribute to the implementation of this legislative proposal. This law has the potential to enrich educational practices with new learning dynamics that promote a deeper sociocultural understanding of Brazilian reality. We found in Indigenous literatures (Munduruku, Jekupé, Ticuna, Mbyá, Krenak, among others) a rich potential for exploring various perspectives that underpin Indigenous epistemologies and their multiple humanities, fostering greater social respect for these worldviews. Accordingly, we proposed educational experiences focusing on aspects we consider impactful for challenging certain hegemonic perspectives, such as relationships with the environment, the presence of orality, diverse Indigenous writing styles, ancestries, and others. This work advances toward building a more multicultural society that values and respects Indigenous presences and existences in this territory.
Künstliche Intelligenz in der Medizin
Authors: Lindenthal-Schmidt Madalena
Published: January 2025

AI can provide relief in the healthcare system and help to minimize error rates. However, there are also risks associated with AI systems. There may be biases in the output and the system may present an incorrect proposal for a decision. The author examines whether medical liability law can respond to these problems. The analysis of the liability requirements focuses on the changed contractual obligations and emphasizes that doctors must have technical expertise in addition to medical expertise when using AI. It remains possible to identify errors in the core area of medical activity. For residual risks, organizational fault offers an appropriate and fair solution.
Die Erfahrung des Sprichworts
Authors: Paulhan Jean
Published: January 2025

Jean Paulhan (1884-1964) stand als Chefredakteur der Nouvelle Revue Française fünfzig Jahre lang im Mittelpunkt des literarischen und intellektuellen Lebens in Frankreich. Sein eigenes literarisches und essayistisches Werk aber, zu dem die hier erstmals auf Deutsch vorliegenden ethnographischen Texte zählen, gilt es noch zu entdecken. Paulhans Untersuchungen madagassischer Sprichwörter (ohabolana) und Gedichte (hain-teny) inspirierten nicht nur die französischen Surrealisten und das Collège de Sociologie. Sie bilden auch die wichtigste Quelle der literaturtheoretischen Reflexionen, die 1936 in Paulhans Hauptwerk Die Blumen von Tarbes mündeten. Nachdem Paulhan von 1908 bis 1910 als Lehrer in der damaligen französischen Kolonie Madagaskar gelebt hatte, kam er über dreißig Jahre hinweg in immer neuen Essays und Vorträgen auf seine Erfahrungen mit der Sprache und Kultur dieses Landes zurück. Die vorliegende Sammlung seiner ethnographischen Abhandlungen erlaubt die andauernde Faszination der oralen Dichtung Madagaskars und ihre Bedeutung für Paulhans Wiederentdeckung der Rhetorik nachzuvollziehen. Dabei sind seine Essays nicht allein als Zeugnisse seiner kritischen Auseinandersetzung mit den ethnozentristischen Theorien der Ethnologie seiner Zeit von andauerndem Interesse. Als geradezu frappierend aktuell erweist sich die Verwobenheit narrativer und reflexiver Elemente in Paulhans Auseinandersetzung mit der epistemologischen Problematik eines Zugangs zu fremdkulturellen Sprach- und Denkformen.
Anesthesia for Robotic Surgeries in Children
Authors: Ahluwalia Pallavi , Ahluwalia Amit
Published: January 2025

Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery is increasingly popular in children, including newborns and infants, because it provides a better three-dimensional (3D) view for the surgeon, making the procedure easier. Anesthetists should be aware of the anesthesia-related challenges that a child undergoing robotic surgery may face. Some of these challenges are related to patient positioning, restricted airway and intravenous access, pressure damage to nerves and tissues, and the potential for hypothermia In addition, it is important to understand the physiological changes caused by pneumoperitoneum (PNP) and what effects they have on the different organ systems. Lung ventilatory strategies are needed to maintain oxygenation and prevent hypercarbia and atelectasis, such as limiting peak airway pressure to 25 cm H2O, applying positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 5 mm Hg, and delivering a tidal volume of 6–7 ml/kg.

Application of Silica Sol-Gel Coatings for the Bioactivation of Metallic Implants
Authors: Romero-Gavilán Francisco , Suay Julio
Published: January 2025

Metallic implants can cause problems due to the release of corrosion products that complicate the successful integration of the material in the human body. Additionally, some of these materials are considered bioinert. The versatility of the sol-gel technique allows tuning the properties of silicon networks that can be applied as coatings on metallic implants. These coatings can protect metal implants from corrosion problems, and they can increase their bioactivity. The possibility of adjusting the sol-gel coating biodegradation rate also makes them a very good option to be used as release vehicles. In addition to the bioactivation generated by the coating itself, bioactive compounds can be released from the sol-gel material promoting the healing process or preventing infections. This chapter will describe the main advances in the development and characterization of these silica sol-gel coatings published in the literature.

This chapter delves into applying surface engineering techniques to address these challenges. The adhesion between metal and plastic can be significantly improved by modifying the surface properties of metal inserts through various engineering methods such as surface treatments, coatings, and texturing. The chapter explores different surface engineering techniques and their mechanisms and presents their practical applications. Case studies will be presented to illustrate the effectiveness of these techniques in real-world scenarios, providing valuable insights for researchers and engineers in the field and promoting the advancement of hybrid material systems in manufacturing.
Influence of Working Fluid on the Mean Flow Vortex Structure in Industrial Flow Pipelines of Arbitrary Bend Angle via RANS Simulation
Authors: Church-Forbes Keagan , Zamir A. Koshuriyan Mohammad , A. Abuhatira Ahmed
Published: January 2025

Numerical simulations of flow through industrial pipelines is important for design purposes in commercial and domestic transport of oil and gas. In this paper we use steady Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to investigate the effect of different working fluids and streamwise bend angle on the spatial distribution, wall shear stress and turbulence kinetic energy of the fully-developed Dean vortex. Using Ansys Fluent, steady Reynolds-Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) simulations are performed in a parametric study for various gas flows (air, methane and carbon dioxide) and pipe elbow bend angles (90°,60°,45°,30°,0°). Our results show the flow properties (velocity streamlines, turbulence kinetic energy and induced wall shear stress) of the Dean vortex for inflow velocities ranging from 5 to 15 m/s at Dean numbers of O104 corresponding to working fluids having the same inflow mass flux. Reducing the pipe bend angle was found to minimize the wall shear stress and subsequent vortex magnitude for all gas flows types. We discuss these results quantitatively in terms of turbulent kinetic energy/the degree of secondary flow comparing to experimental literature. Reference to pipeline longevity is made.
Why Pricing Carbon is Still a Good Idea
Authors: Yohe Gary
Published: January 2025

In the decades-long debate about how best to design policies that would most efficiently and equitably limit the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) from all human sources, economists have persistently called for designs that included some way of pricing carbon. Nonetheless, but with some notable exceptions, very few implemented policies have moved very far away from traditional command and control strategies wherein the only price is what economists call a “shadow price” that is barely visible to the general public. To understand why that is so despite economists’ objections and to keep those reasons front of mind, it is useful to review the underlying economics from time to time, especially in the context of pricing’s advantages in coping with the enormous uncertainties and long time horizons that add unprecedented complexity to the regulatory problem. This essay does just that. It starts with the theory behind economists’ unfaltering position, starting with Marty Weitzman’s seminal comparison of price and quantity controls under uncertainty in 1974. It continues by considering how the application of Weitzman’s finding to environmental controls can handle the twin monumental challenges to design issues posed by coping effectively with uncertainty over long periods of time. A third section provides evidence that some with position in the policy arena have not been shy in speaking these insights to power over many years before concluding remarks offering some suggestions about what the future could hold, depending on the results of the 2024 presidential election in the United States.
The Uses of Anger in Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies
Authors: Plaskow Judith ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: January 2025

Women’s studies began as an outgrowth and direct expression of the feminist movement. It sought to understand the forces that had limited women’s choices and to name the ways in which various academic disciplines had contributed to destructive mythologies about women’s place in society. Anger was a motivating force in feminist studies and activism, a reality captured by Audre Lorde brilliant essay “The Uses of Anger,” which insists on the power of anger as an indispensable tool for change. Over time, women’s and gender studies became more professionalized, and the anger of many of its practitioners dissipated, often dulling the field’s critical and political edge.

Authors: Kamuri Evanson Njoroge , Wanjohi Peter , Ismail Noor , Njeru Agnes
Published: January 2025

Aim: The study aimed to determine whether transformational leadership style affects the relationship between culture alignment and firm performance in state corporations in Kenya and the effect of culture alignment on this performance.Methods: The study adopted a cross-sectional research design. Its target population was Chief Executive Officers and Senior Managers, individuals who are directly involved in strategy and planning in the organization. The target population was 221 state corporations, of which 143 formed the sample size. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect the primary data, and Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25 was used in data analysis.Results: Pearson correlation results indicated that cultural alignment was positively and significantly related to the performance of state corporations. The F statistic for aligning organization culture was statistically significant, which implied that aligning organization culture statistically influenced the performance of state corporations in Kenya. Introducing transformational leadership in the regression model as a moderating variable reduced the F-statistic, indicating that transformational leadership affects the strength of these relationships. However, despite the reductions, relationships remain statistically significant in all cases.Conclusion: The study concludes that the culture alignment process affects the performance of State Corporations in Kenya. This means that state corporations should have a clear strategy for the cultural alignment process and channels for communicating with all stakeholders. Recommendations: The study recommends that organizations have a clear strategy for culture alignment culture. Organizations should appraise leaders of transformational leadership capabilities through the integration of the attributes as part of performance reviews. In addition, organizations should implement leadership development programs that foster leadership skills, training on emotional intelligence, inspiring vision, innovation, and individualized support for team members.

Published: January 2025

Background: Nonunion bone fractures cause chronic pain and disability, posing a significant burden on healthcare systems.
Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) has emerged as a promising non-invasive treatment, with studies showing bone healing
success rates between 50% and 100%.
Methods: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of focal ESWT (fESWT) in improving bone consolidation, pain, and
functionality in patients with nonunion bone fractures, and to identify potential predictive factors of the treatment success rate.
Inclusion criteria included nonunion bone fractures persisting over 9 months, pain and/or functional limitation, and skeletal
maturity. Exclusion criteria included bone tumors, infected nonunions, instability of fixation devices, fracture gap size larger than
5mm, blood coagulation disorders, and pregnancy. Ultrasound was used to assess fracture depth, select the appropriate stand-off,
and define the treatment area. The protocol involved three sessions of fESWT at one-week intervals. Patients underwent clinical
and radiological evaluations at 3-, 6-, and 9-months following treatment.
Results: The study included 7 patients (5 males and 2 females, mean age 56.14 ± 18.68 years). Treatment was successful in 4
patients (57.1%) at 9 months post-treatment. NRS mean scores decreased significantly at 9 months, at rest and during movement,
with overall reductions of 1.43 and 4.14 points, respectively. At 9 months, the qDASH mean score improved by 18.15 points, and
the LEFS mean score increased by 22.20 points. Even in persistent nonunions after treatment, the NRS mean score at rest
decreased by 1.67 points and during movement by 3.33 points. Additionally, functional outcomes improved, with the qDASH score
increasing by 18.15 points and the LEFS score by 32.00 points. No adverse effects were observed. Patient satisfaction with the
fESWT was "very good" in 42.9% of cases, "satisfactory" in 42.9%, and "good" in 14.3%.
Conclusions: fESWT is a safe and effective treatment for fracture nonunions in selected patients, including atrophic cases, with
significant pain and functional improvement, even in persistent nonunions. Standardizing procedures is essential. Choosing fESWT
may reduce healthcare costs by avoiding more invasive treatments.

Published: January 2025

Chronic diseases are significant health issues classified by WHO into communicable and non-communicable types. Acid-base balance disorders are suspected to exacerbate disease severity, increase mortality risk, and potentially result in death. This research aimed to investigate the relationship between blood pH levels and mortality among hospitalized patients. A cross-sectional observational analysis was employed using medical record data from patients diagnosed with heart disease (CHF, IHD), diabetes mellitus (DM), stroke (ischemic and hemorrhagic), pulmonary disorders (pneumonia, tuberculosis), kidney function disorders (CKD), and sepsis (septic shock). Arterial blood gas analysis (ABG) data were collected from Jogja Hospital patients during 2022-2023. The research involved 194 subjects, categorized into two groups: deceased and surviving patients. Statistical analysis using a t-test compared the average pH levels between the groups. The findings revealed that the average pH level in the living group was 7.325, whereas the deceased group had a more acidic pH of 7.25, with a statistically significant difference (p<0.05). Severe acidosis, often caused by hyperlactatemia, was associated with organ dysfunction and increased mortality risk, particularly among sepsis patients. The research highlights that acidic blood pH, indicative of acidosis, is linked to various etiologies and a poor prognosis. These results underscore the importance of monitoring and managing acid-base balance disorders to improve patient outcomes and reduce mortality.

This study explored the drivers for consumer satisfaction with mobile banking services in the Peoples’ Bank of Zanzibar (PBZ). The study was done in Chachani ward of Chake Chake district in Pemba, Tanzania. The study employed a cross-sectional research design. Stratified sampling techniques were used to obtain 192 PBZ mobile banking customers and a purposive sampling technique was employed to pick key informants. Data were collected through interviews, key informant interviews, and documentary review Data analysis was done through SPSS on Chi-square, path analysis, logistic regression analysis, and factor analysis. Results indicated that gender (46.9% of satisfaction for male), age (26-33 years had the highest satisfaction with 40.6%), and education (56.3% of university-educated respondents reported being satisfied) with mobile banking services at PBZ. Path analysis indicated that security (β=0.353), service speed (β=0.251), and customer perception (β=0.304) had strong positive impacts on satisfaction levels. Regression results indicated that customers' income, smartphone ownership, and service reliability were predictors of customer satisfaction. The model fit for the factor analysis regarding customer satisfaction with mobile banking services is robust, evidenced by the non-significant Chi-square (p = 0.063). The study concludes that demographic characteristics, income, smartphone ownership emphasized by service reliability and speed are vital for customer satisfaction. It is recommended that PBZ should improve the reliability and speed of their services by investing in strong infrastructure and minimizing downtime, strengthening security measures, and investing in customer education for appropriate mobile banking service use.

Authors: Nur Paikah  , Paramita Yuliani  , Maskawati
Published: January 2025

This study examines the regional government’s obligations in fulfilling the right to clean water to achieve public utility benefits, focusing on the Regional Water Utility Company (PDAM) in Bone Regency. The research adopts an empirical juridical method, combining field studies on the implementation of existing laws with data gathered through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results indicate that the fulfillment of the right to clean water by PDAM Bone Regency is not optimal. Challenges persist in three key aspects: quality, quantity, and continuity of water supply. The water quality often fails to meet standards, with issues such as turbidity reported by consumers. The quantity of water distributed remains insufficient to meet the needs of all citizens, particularly during extended dry seasons, and the continuity of water flow is inconsistent, disrupting daily activities. These issues hinder the realization of public welfare and equitable access to clean water, as mandated by Indonesia’s legal framework and human rights principles. This study highlights the need for improved management, infrastructure upgrades, and policy interventions to ensure the right to clean water is upheld for all citizens of Bone Regency.
Entrepreneurship Based on Culture and Local Wisdom: Building Sustainable Business from Tradition
Authors: Rifqiansyah  , Hasrul wijaya
Published: January 2025

Entrepreneurship based on culture and local wisdom plays a crucial role in fostering sustainable business models that preserve traditions while contributing to economic growth. This study explores how traditional knowledge, cultural heritage, and local practices shape entrepreneurial initiatives that balance profitability with social and environmental sustainability. Using a qualitative approach, this paper examines successful cases of culture-based entrepreneurship in Indonesia, highlighting strategies for integrating tradition into contemporary business models. The findings indicate that businesses leveraging cultural assets—such as traditional crafts, culinary heritage, and indigenous knowledge—demonstrate unique market positioning, strong community engagement, and resilience against economic fluctuations. However, entrepreneurs face challenges, including market adaptation, limited access to modern technology, and competition with mass-produced alternatives. Government policies, local support systems, and digital transformation play a significant role in sustaining these businesses. This study emphasizes that cultural entrepreneurship not only preserves intangible heritage but also fosters economic empowerment and sustainable livelihoods. It suggests that fostering collaboration among policymakers, educational institutions, and entrepreneurs is essential for enhancing the scalability of culture-based businesses. By embracing innovation while respecting tradition, entrepreneurs can create sustainable ventures that maintain cultural authenticity while meeting contemporary market demands.

Authors: Rahim Munir  , Rafika Fausiah
Published: January 2025

The circular economy has emerged as a transformative framework for achieving sustainability in entrepreneurship by minimizing waste, optimizing resource use, and promoting regenerative business practices. Unlike the traditional linear economy that follows a "take, make, dispose" model, the circular economy encourages businesses to adopt reduce, reuse, recycle, and regenerate principles. This study explores the role of circular economy practices in green entrepreneurship, focusing on how sustainable business models integrate environmental responsibility with economic viability. Using a qualitative research approach, this study examines case studies of green entrepreneurs who have successfully implemented circular business models across various industries, including renewable energy, eco-friendly manufacturing, waste management, and sustainable agriculture. The findings indicate that businesses adopting circular economy principles experience benefits such as cost savings, enhanced brand reputation, regulatory compliance, and long-term profitability. However, challenges remain, particularly in terms of scalability, consumer awareness, and access to financing. The study underscores the importance of policy support, technological innovation, and industry collaboration in accelerating the transition toward circular entrepreneurship. By integrating circular economy strategies into their business operations, green entrepreneurs can drive sustainable economic growth, reduce environmental impact, and contribute to global climate resilience. The findings provide valuable insights for business leaders, policymakers, and sustainability advocates on fostering a thriving circular economy ecosystem.

Türkiye’deki Kütüphaneler için Yasal Çerçeve (Mevzuat) Bağlamında Sürdürülebilirlik ve Kurumsallaşma Değerlendirmesi
Authors: Cengiz Mater Emine
Published: January 2025

Amaç: Kütüphaneler toplumsal kurumlardır ve bu kurumların sürdürülebilir kalkınma hedeflerine etkili bir şekilde katkı sağlamaları beklenmektedir. Sürdürülebilirlik, çevresel faktörlerin yanı sıra, kurumsal yapıların ve işleyişin sürekliliğini de kapsayan bir kavramdır. Bu çalışmada, kütüphanelerin mevcut yasal bir çerçeve olmaksızın sürdürülebilir kalkınma hedeflerini nasıl yürüttükleri konusunda genel bir değerlendirme sunulması amaçlanmaktadır. Ayrıca, sürdürülebilirlik kavramının çevresel ve kurumsal boyutlarıyla birlikte, kütüphaneler için belirlenmiş sürdürülebilirlik hedefleri ve bu hedeflerin kütüphaneler açısından taşıdığı önem ele alınmıştır. Çalışmada, kütüphanelerde mevzuat, kurumsallaşma ve sürdürülebilirlik arasındaki ilişki analiz edilerek, bu kurumların sürdürülebilirlik amacına nasıl daha etkili bir şekilde hizmet edebileceği tartışılmıştır. Bu araştırma, Türkiye'deki kütüphanelerin sürdürülebilirlik alanındaki durumunu incelemeyi ve bu alanda gelecekteki çalışmalara yol göstermeyi amaçlamaktadır.
Yöntem: Çalışmada literatür taraması, doküman analizi ve betimsel analiz yönteminden yararlanılmıştır.
Bulgular: Çalışmada, kütüphaneler için sürdürülebilirlik konusunda yasal zeminin eksik olduğu ortaya çıkan bulgular arasındadır. Yasal zemin eksikliği olsa da kütüphanelerde sürdürülebilirlik hedefleri kapsamında çalışmaların yapılacağı fakat bu çalışmaların da devamlılığının eksik kalacağı görülmektedir. Başka bir deyişle kütüphanelerin sadece mekân olarak kullanıcıya hizmet vermesi sürdürülebilir kalkınma hedefinin gerçekleştiğini göstermemektedir. Kütüphanelerde sürdürülebilirlik kalkınma hedeflerinin sağlanabilmesi için herhangi bir denetleme mekanizması bulunmadığı, yapılan hizmetlerin gönüllülük esasına göre yapıldığı ortaya çıkmıştır.
Sonuç: Alandaki çalışmalar incelendiğinde ortaya çıkan örneklerin kütüphanelerin sürdürülebilir kalkınma hedeflerine yönelik bilinçli olarak gerçekleştirdikleri hizmetler olmadığı bu hizmetlerin kütüphanelerin yapısı gereği vermesi gereken hizmetler olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Bilinçsiz olarak gerçekleştirilen çalışmaların sürdürülebilirliğinin de zor olduğu görülmektedir. Aynı zamanda literatürden ve incelenen örneklerden elde edilen sonuçlar, kütüphanecilerin ve kütüphanelerin sürdürülebilirlik ve sürdürülebilirliğin yasal boyutu ile ilgili bir farkındalık ve hazırlık eksikliği içinde olduğunu göstermiştir.
Özgünlük: Bu çalışma kütüphanelerde sürdürülebilirlik kavramını yasal zemin açısından incelendiği ilk çalışma olması bakımından özgünlük taşımaktadır.

Web sayfalarının erişilebilirlik düzeyinin incelenmesi, üniversitelerin sunduğu dijital hizmetlerin kalitesinin ve kullanılabilirliğinin değerlendirilmesi açısından da önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmada, 14 üniversitenin Bilgi ve Belge Yönetimi (BBY) bölümlerine ait web ana sayfalarının erişilebilirliği dört otomatik web erişilebilirlik aracı (TAW, GTmetrix, Broken Link Checker ve The Lighthouse) kullanarak test edilmiştir. Web İçeriği Erişilebilirlik Kılavuzunda (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines [WCAG]) önerilen kullanılabilirlik standartlarına ve erişilebilirlik kılavuzuna ne kadar uygun olduğu araştırılmıştır. Belirtilen ilkeler doğrultusunda web sayfalarının erişilebilirliklerine ilişkin mevcut durumun ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre BBY bölümlerine ait web sayfalarının WCAG standartları uyarınca web sayfalarının içeriğinde çok sayıda uyarı ve erişilebilirlik hatası tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmanın web erişilebilirliği konusunda Türkiye’deki BBY bölümlerine katkıda bulunacağı düşünülmektedir.

Complying with local content regulations in the upstream oil and gas industry presents a significant challenge. These regulations aim to enhance local capability, and the industry's yearly transaction value greatly impacts the local industry, necessitating the use of local products. However, despite requiring high technology, this industry mostly relies on imported products. To address this challenge, our research employs a systematic approach that combines scenario planning with Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) analysis. Our primary goal is to develop a comprehensive framework that empowers organizations to optimize their business strategies within the context of localization projects. By integrating scenario planning, which allows for the exploration of diverse future scenarios, with AHP analysis, which offers a structured analytical foundation for evaluating and selecting strategies, our research equips decision-makers with a powerful toolset. Through extensive case studies and meticulous analysis, our research sheds light on the nuanced decision-making processes and strategic adaptations that can be achieved through the synergy of scenario planning and AHP analysis in the domain of localization projects. Our findings and insights provide practical guidance to decision-makers grappling with the complexities of local content compliance and the long-term sustainability of business strategies.
