U.S. Economic Policy Towards China under the Biden Administration
Authors: Abdullah Zaharul , Muhamad Rosyidah , Said Noor Ashikin
Published: March 2024

Since the inception of the open-door policy in 1978, China has progressively become more integrated into the global economy through trade, foreign direct investment, and, more recently, outward direct investment. This economic integration has gained momentum with initiatives like the ‘Go Global’ strategy, China’s entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 2001, and the launch of the Belt and Road Initiative in 2013. China’s economic ascent, coupled with its increasing political influence and military power, prompted the United States (US) to initiate a strategy of rebalancing in the Asia Pacific region, starting with the Bush administration and continuing through the Obama, Trump, and Biden administrations. During the Trump administration, this rebalancing strategy was supported by decoupling strategy, ultimately leading to a trade war with China. Despite its intention to avoid the initiation of a new Cold War and to adopt a more moderate stance towards China, the US-China trade war has evolved further into a tech war under the Biden administration. Given this context, this article aims to outline the primary characteristics of the US economic policy towards China during the Biden administration, comparing it to the Trump administration and assessing its impact on both nations. The central argument of this article is that the primary characteristics of the US economic policy towards China under Biden administration are rebalancing and decoupling, carried over from the policies of the preceding Trump administration, and there are clear signs that these characteristics are deepening. Furthermore, the article demonstrates that the extensive decoupling measures enacted by the US have proven effective in diminishing China’s role in global industrial and supply chains, particularly in industries related to semiconductors and chipmaking equipment.

The increasing popularity of conversational agents such as ChatGPT has sparked interest in their potential use in educational contexts but undermines the role of companionship in learning with these tools. Our study targets the design of virtual learning companions (VLCs), focusing on bonding relationships for collaborative learning while facilitating students’ time management and motivation. We draw upon design science research (DSR) to derive prescriptive design knowledge for VLCs as the core of our contribution. Through three DSR cycles, we conducted interviews with working students and experts, held interdisciplinary workshops with the target group, designed and evaluated two conceptual prototypes, and fully coded a VLC instantiation, which we tested with students in class. Our approach has yielded 9 design principles, 28 meta-requirements, and 33 design features centered around the value-in-interaction. These encompass Human-likeness and Dialogue Management, Proactive and Reactive Behavior, and Relationship Building on the Relationship Layer (DP1,3,4), Adaptation (DP2) on the Matching Layer, as well as Provision of Supportive Content, Fostering Learning Competencies, Motivational Environment, and Ethical Responsibility (DP5-8) on the Service Layer.

Humans are considered “engaged” once they invest personal resources such as energy, time, or attention beyond a required level. This engagement state occurs when feeling connected to another actor or an object. In information systems (IS) research, engagement is recognized in the concept of ‘user engagement’, which has for many years successfully been employed to understand interaction patterns and user reactions. However, as IS artifacts evolve, we observe contemporary phenomena that are no longer covered by the existing concept: For one, IS have developed from passive resources (such as websites) to human-like actors (such as conversational, nowadays often large language model (LLM)-based, agents) so that a pure ‘user engagement’ perspective does not capture new affordances for engagement with active counterparts. Secondly, IS increasingly act as intermediaries into other engagement objects (e.g., organizations) that are the ultimate target of engagement. Thus, IS research may benefit from a broader perspective on engagement. Our work systematically draws on a structured literature review across adjacent academic disciplines and an in-depth qualitative analysis to develop a more comprehensive conceptual framework for engagement. With this framework, we contribute a refined and broadened conceptual base for engagement and discuss how it can inform future IS research.
Research on Pregnancy Conflict Support Policy: Focusing on the German Case
Authors:   Research Institute For Life And Culture Sogang University, Jung Jaehun , Lee Jooyoung
Published: March 2024

This study proposes the implementation of a comprehensive social policy system in Germany that safeguards women's reproductive rights and children's rights to birth. This system comprises a birth notification system, a protected birth system, a pregnancy conflict counseling system, and related service delivery mechanisms. A comparative case study was conducted to explain the support social services and family policy system for women in pregnancy conflict situations, focusing on a pregnancy conflict counseling center in Germany. Following the revision of the Criminal Law in 1992, the German government began to partially legalize abortion and introduce pregnancy conflict counseling centers. This research found that the German government has supported women in pregnancy conflict situations through child-centered cash benefits and family policy programs aimed at promoting work-life balance. Our research underscores the need to establish a social service delivery system that acknowledges women as the primary stakeholders in childbirth. Additionally, this study proposes revisions to laws related to abortion penalties and the establishment of a comprehensive family policy system.
Political Neutralism and Civic Education: Focusing on Freire’s Criticism of Social Welfare
Authors:   Research Institute For Life And Culture Sogang University, Yoo Bumsang
Published: March 2024

This study is a critical study of political neutralism with a focus on social welfare in Korea. Korean social welfare, like civil servants and teachers, takes a political neutralist stance. Political neutralism actually means uncritical acceptance of the regime's position and has a tendency to depoliticize it. In this context, Korean social welfare follows the position of residualism, and social welfare is practiced by providing services based on sympathy and charity.
The purpose of this paper is to criticize Korea's social welfare from a political neutralist standpoint and seek alternatives to overcome it. To this end, this paper focuses on Freire's theory and seeks to develop discussions based on it. Freire criticized political neutralism as the logic of the oppressor, perpetuating an unjust order of inequality and class conflict, and subjecting citizens to a culture of silence and horizontal violence. In particular, social welfare was seen as a fictional tolerance and a strategy of the oppressor.
This paper analyzed Freire's criticism by applying it to Korea's social welfare stance, that is, political neutralism and residualism. This paper proposed transforming social welfare into class politics toward institutionalism based on social rights and presented the content and direction of civic education.
Las polisemias de la paz en Colombia: Paz territorial, paz con legalidad y paz total
Authors: Ríos Sierra Jerónimo
Published: March 2024

El siguiente trabajo analiza las diferentes narrativas construidas sobre las nociones de paz territorial, paz con legalidad y paz total, desarrolladas bajos los gobiernos de Juan Manuel Santos, Iván Duque y Gustavo Petro, respectivamente. Desde un análisis discursivo, la fuente primaria son dieciocho entrevistas en profundidad realizadas a protagonistas en la transformación de la violencia en Colombia. A partir de criterios de pertinencia, pluralidad, representatividad y saturación se problematizan universos semánticos de diferente color ideológico, enriquecido por las voces de exdirigentes de las FARC-EP y altos mandos del estamento militar. Así, las coordenadas sociopolíticas y el lugar de enunciación experimentan continuidades y rupturas que cobran sentido en torno a un concepto, la paz, tan complejo como polisémico.

casa cuartel de la Guardia Civil de estilo decó
Authors: García Manso Angélica
Published: March 2024

La casa cuartel de Malpartida de Cáceres (1930) ofrece una arquitectura singular, a caballo entre la idea de casa fuerte y planteamientos arquitectónicos contemporáneos, según se aprecia en su diseño y, de forma más concreta, en su fachada. El diseño de dicha fachada responde de manera aproximada a la proporción de rectángulo áureo y se caracteriza por convertir las ventanas en aspilleras invertidas, que ofrecen un elaborado juego de sombras y alturas. Se trata de un planteamiento visual que guarda relación con otros inmuebles desaparecidos del arquitecto de origen riojano Ángel Pérez Rodríguez, cuya producción se estructura en dos etapas, divididas estas por la Guerra Civil, siendo la primera, a la que pertenece el cuartel de Malpartida de Cáceres, la de mayor creatividad. El edificio constituye un elemento patrimonial de la población que debe ser conservado con las máximas garantías posibles.
viaje de De Gaulle a Sudamérica en la prensa española (septiembre-octubre 1964)
Authors: Fleites Marcos Alvaro
Published: March 2024

La gira diplomática que el Presidente francés Charles de Gaulle realizó en 1964 y en la que visitó diez países sudamericanos constituyó el viaje más ambicioso y significativo de un mandatorio europeo en Latinoamérica de toda la década. La prensa española consideró esta gira como una injerencia al introducir un nuevo interlocutor europeo en una región que la propaganda franquista definía como zona privilegiada para la acción exterior de España vinculada al mito de la Hispanidad. Sin embargo, la voluntad de mantener una política de acercamiento hacia Francia y un gesto del Presidente francés hacia España al final de su viaje resultaron un contrapeso que impidió que los balances finales del viaje en los medios de información españoles fueran marcadamente negativos, tal como se examinará a través del análisis de contenido de los principales diarios del período.

Published: March 2024

Background: A doctor's communication and interpersonal skills encompass gathering information to facilitate accurate diagnosis, counsel appropriately, give therapeutic instructions, and establish caring relationships with patients. While face-to-face consultations have been the norm, tele-consultations and enrolment in telemedicine apps have become necessary. Tele-consultations have been on the rise significantly during the COVID-19 lockdown. This study aims to assess the barriers to tele-consultations among doctors in Chennai. Methodology: This study uses a cross-sectional design to assess the barriers to tele-consultations among doctors in Chennai using a convenience sampling technique. Data was entered in Microsoft Excel and analyzed using SPSS software version 23. Results: 81.6% of the participants feel that teleconsultations have reduced face-to-face consultations. Only about 6% of the study participants preferred teleconsultation in the future. About a third of the doctors in the study could not treat/manage chronically ill patients through teleconsultations. About 70% of the doctors could follow up with their patients through telecommunication, but 70% failed to follow up. Conclusion: From this study, we conclude that only about 6% of the study participants would prefer teleconsultation in the future. Treating medical emergencies and assessment of surgical patients were considered as top 2 important barriers in this study with about half of them facing this barrier during their telecommunication.
Predictive Modeling for Early Hyperglycemia Detection in Type 2 Diabetes
Authors: Jain Pulkita , Rashid Mudassir
Published: March 2024

Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) is characterized by a combination of defects in insulin action and impairment in insulin secretion. Deficient insulin action causes people with Type 2 Diabetes to have difficulty controlling their blood glucose concentration (BGC) and experience periods of high (hyperglycemia) and low (hypoglycemia) BGC. Continuous glocuse monitoring (CGM) sensors and machine learning algorithms can automate the process of meal size estimation, improve the accuracy of the carbohydrate estimations, and reduce the involvement of the subject. The aim of this project was to use dynamic Partial Least Squares (PLS) regression to model blood glucose data from CGM devices and optimize the model parameters for best accuracy of the predictive modelling. The parameters were optimized by explicit enumeration and grid search approach to minimize the mean square error (MSE), and the lowest MSE was obtained with the number of latent variables as 5 and past horizon as 5 (25 minutes). Future research will develop the logic inference using the first- and second-order derivatives of the predicition curve that will sound the alarms based on the predicitions made in the current work.

Published: March 2024

As the race to exa-scale computing accerlerates, power consumption continues to be a critical challenge. While several technologies are available for power management, balancing energy efficiency and application performance during execution remains an important topic of research. In this study, we develop an open-source library called DNPC for dynamically controlling an application's package-level poewr consumption during execution. Given a specific sperformance degradation threshold, DNPC aims to minimize power consumption by following the application's power profile and adjusting the power cap accordingly. Further, DNPC is able to estimate the online performance of an application under capping, and predict its estimed performance degradation relative to an uncapped run. In this paper, we present an overview of the library, followed by a case study to illustrate the use of DNPC with an Exascale Computing Project proxy application on a production supercomputer at Argonne National Laboratory.

Authors: Mulyaningsih S. , Lestari M.B.S.A. , Purnamawati D.I. , Suhartono S.
Published: March 2024

Yogyakarta in Indonesia is on the south flank of the Merapi Volcano and is bordered by the Southern Mountain, West Progo Mountain, and the Indian Ocean. Many geological and archaeological phenomena are found here, making geological and cultural diversity part of the wealth of Yogyakarta. One of these was Hindu-Buddhis temples developed during the 8th-10th century that were buried by volcanic materials dated between 1910 y BP and 2010 AD and resulted in cracks, wavy paleosols, liquefactions, and bumpy buildings. The catastrophe eruption of 4 VEI in October 2010 and the earthquake with 6,2R on May 27th, 2006, took thousands of lives. Apart from the disastrous effects, the natural disasters built unique geodiversity with education and utilization potentials. Using the values of education, conservation, early warning, utilization, uniqueness, and the improvements of the economic community developments, 15 geoheritages have been appointed, to be an Aspiring Jogja Geopark. This paper aimed to assess qualitatively and quantitatively whether the geological, biological, and cultural diversities can be prepared. The method used was questionnaires filled by visitors, local people, academicians, local tourist managers, small and medium enterprises (UMK), and micro small and medium enterprises (UMKM). The data was processed using RapidMiner software for clustering. The results discovered that people around the 15 destinations did not know about the Aspiring Jogja Geopark, but the academicians, local governments, POKDARWIS (local tourist managers), and the UMK and UMKM knew. Because of their limited knowledge, the local people were unaware of the park. However, they were surprised and enthusiastic about the geopark. Visitors very happy and proud of it. The community had been waiting for a geopark. It is a symbol of the unity of Yogyakarta’s people and the ruler, an embodiment of the slogan of “life in harmony with disasters”, and the optimisation of the geoheritage’s utilization to improve the local economy.

Authors: Wijayaningtyas Maranatha , Nursanti Ellysa , Indra Laksmana Dimas
Published: March 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic influenced alterations in the real estate market. Since the pandemic, housing development in Indonesia has been negatively impacted, especially labor, which was crucial to the success of housing development. In addition, most workers in housing developments are informal workers who behave differently than formal or permanent workers. This study aimed to examine the phenomena of informal workers in housing developments during the COVID-19 pandemic using qualitative phenomenological approaches. Ten informal worker informants, five project supervisor in-formants, and two housing developer informants were chosen for in-depth interviews based on a preset criteria. In housing construction projects, implementing the health protocol and compliance with Occupational Health and Safety rules increased the awareness of informal workers. The fact that informal laborers prioritize health and safety during the COVID-19 outbreak is encouraging for building developers. Thus, the risk of housing construction projects decreases, and it is hoped that the government’s program to build one million homes will be successful. In addition, the government can create incentive-related policies for informal employees who implemented the health protocol during the COVID-19 outbreak.

Employment Opportunities for Degree Holder in the Post-Pandemic Era: Basis for Manpower Recruitment and Selection Policy
Authors: Li, DBA Hongfei
Published: March 2024

Since January 2020, a new coronavirus has triggered a global outbreak. As the global economy has expanded outside China, it has grown increasingly unstable and unpredictable, making it challenging to find job and thrive economically and socially. As a result, graduates faced uncertainty in the employment market, particularly during the outbreak. "Employment" was used more than any other phrase in the government's 2020 strategy report. The study advocated for a concerted effort to sustain and grow employment, as well as a tried-and-true framework for stability, employment, and social security. Furthermore, employment was the main goal shared by the "six stable" and "six guaranteed" important works after the pandemic of 2021.
The pandemic impacted students who had yet to apply to graduate school. Parallel to this, contemporary professional progression entailed some degree of uncertainty and unpredictability, making career changes necessary for personal development. Professional adaptation, defined as "the individual's preparedness and coping resources when confronting the uncertainty and complexity brought on by career transformation," has the potential to have a substantial influence on professional growth. Adaptability to changing situations and possibilities was essential for professional success.
Academics provided proof that adaptability was necessary for professional achievement. Furthermore, to address the issue of employment, government and private sector job recruiting practices must be re-evaluated in order to tackle long-term unemployment problems. To fight unemployment, management must focus on job creation and vocational training, as well as enhancing the work environment, growing employment, and optimizing the economic structure. In addition, several research found that when respondents were categorized based on their profile, their estimate of the effect of adopting human resource management remained consistent. As a result, the researcher performed a study to better understand the issue and provide recommendations for potential remedies.
Si no hay quién labre la tierra, ¿cómo vivimos? Noción de ‘Pueblo’ en el vallenato protesta de Máximo Jiménez
Authors: Ayazo Vélez Federico
Published: March 2024

La obra del cantautor vallenato Máximo Jiménez se mantiene más vigente que nunca. Sus canciones poseen un valor testimonial y literario que aporta a la construcción de un relato plural de Colombia y que, por lo mismo, también permite cuestionar las narrativas hegemónicas de nuestra mitología nacional en torno al conflicto político, en la medida en que concreta la voluntad colectiva del campesinado por recordar y hacer memoria de sus procesos organizativos como agremiación, así como también de hacer frente a problemáticas tales como la reforma agraria, la violencia política, el gamonalismo, la inercia y el abandono estatal y la desigual tenencia de tierras, especialmente en los departamentos de Córdoba y Sucre, a partir de finales de la década del sesenta, en el marco de las reivindicaciones de la agremiación conocida como la Asociación Nacional de Usuarios Campesinos (ANUC). De forma contraria a lo que aseguran algunos pensadores, como Walter Ong sobre las culturas orales, la música de Máximo Jiménez se sitúa de forma crítica y con honda sensibilidad histórica frente a la política colombiana y sus prácticas de poder, así como también frente al panorama geopolítico e internacional de la época. En esa medida, el presente trabajo realiza un análisis sociocrítico de las canciones de Máximo Jiménez, particularmente, focalizando su manera de comprender la noción de ‘Pueblo’ y en la manera en que sus canciones establecen una relación entre sus textos y los hechos sociales que le circundan.

Published: March 2024

A partir da década de 1950, uma revisão crítica passou a problematizar as concepções urbanísticas modernas provocando uma mudança de conjuntura, ao adicionar ao movimento racionalista modelos abertos de expressões urbanas variadas. Questões como as preexistências ambientais e topográficas, a arquitetura vernacular, a expressividade de formas arquitetônicas orgânicas e escultóricas, a participação do destinatário e outros fatores, preponderaram nas metodologias urbanísticas direcionando para mudanças formais. A análise do projeto urbanístico da capital da Nigéria do arquiteto Lucio Costa, realizado em 1976, tem como objetivo avaliar a proposta inserida no debate da revisão do movimento moderno. Inicialmente, o artigo apresenta a contextualização no âmbito internacional e, posteriormente, as definições do projeto urbanístico da capital da Nigéria. Utilizou-se como suporte de pesquisa o projeto da capital da Nigéria, bem como sua documentação própria, o estudo comparativo com a morfologia do Plano Piloto de Brasília e as questões relativas à revisão do moderno. Ao verificarmos o projeto de Lucio Costa, é possível identificar que parte das questões dessa revisão foram incorporadas na formulação da proposta urbana para a capital da Nigéria.

Is a Personal Trauma History a Risk Factor for the Development of Secondary Traumatization in EMDR Therapists?
Authors: Daniels Judith K. , Fereidooni Fatemeh
Published: March 2024

Symptoms severe enough to constitute a secondary traumatization (ST) can arise from providing eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) treatment. However, little is known about specific risk factors such as a personal trauma history. EMDR therapists (n= 115) filled out a questionnaire battery to test whether the personal trauma history predicts symptom levels over and beyond vicarious exposure and whether vicarious exposure mediates the relationship between primary trauma history and current ST severity. Current exposure predicts ST symptom severity, while lifetime exposure is negatively associated. The number of primary traumata and the total severity of primary traumata do not explain additional variance in ST symptom severity. The mediation model suggests that primary trauma exposure instead is associated with treating more traumatized clients. The current results suggest that ST is a relevant topic to address in EMDR training, but the personal trauma history does not seem to constitute a relevant risk factor per se. It might, however, be associated with preferences for clientele composition, which in turn might act as a risk factor.
Acceptance-Enhanced Behavior Therapy for Trichotillomania in Youth
Authors: Petersen Julie
Published: March 2024

Trichotillomania is a debilitating and chronic condition involving repeated hair pulling from various areas of the body. Trichotillomania often begins in childhood, suggesting that the development and understanding of treatments for trichotillomania in youth are of utmost importance, especially for successful early intervention. While habit reversal training (HRT) is considered the gold standard treatment for trichotillomania in young people, this article reviews a nascent treatment approach for trichotillomania in youth, acceptance-enhanced behavior therapy (AEBT). AEBT combines HRT and acceptance and commitment therapy skills. Each component of AEBT is described and reviewed. A detailed case exemplar of the 10-session protocol is presented. Future research directions and important clinical considerations are discussed.
