Authors: Milanda Ariana , Arsih Budi
Published: December 2023

Di Indonesia sendiri sampai saat ini khususnya dalam kasus kekerasan seksual yang melonjak tinggi keberadaannya menjadi momok bagi warga masyarakat sekitar, terlebih kepada makhluk yang sering dianggap lemah yaitu para anak dan perempuan yang sering menjadi korban dalam tindak kekerasan seksual yang mana menurut pelaku jika korbannya adalah anak dan perempuan akan menjadi mudah untuk dijadikan target untuk bisa memuaskan dan menyalurkan nafsunya. Fokus penelitian yakni dengan adanya Restorative Justice dalam tindak kekerasan seksual, berdasarkan fakta yang telah terjadi akibat perbuatan tindak kekerasan seksual. ini terdapat beberapa pelaku yang masih bisa menikmati hidupnya dengan tanpa adanya rasa bersalah atau menyesal, namun bagi korban yang saat dan setelah kejadian tersebut mengalami trauma berkelanjutan dan histeris yang harus menanggung beban sendiri, belum lagi jika terbukti hamil dengan melihat bagaimana tanggapan lingkungan sekitar tidak ada yang mengerti keadaan korban bahkan hingga mengucilkan korban dan di selingi perkataan-perkataan yang membuat mental korban semakin terpuruk, tentunya hal seperti ini yang harus menjadi perhatian khusus bagi pemerintah untuk tidak hanya menangani tetapi juga untuk bisa menjamin hak-hak para korban dan melindungi korban akibat tindak kekerasan seksual.Kata Kunci: Kekerasan seksual, restorative justice, korban
Perbandingan Representasi Raja Alfred dalam “The Life of King Alfred” oleh Asser dan Prabu Hayam Wuruk dalam “Negarakertagama” oleh Mpu Prapanca
Authors: Nur Hilmi Asyam , Thomas Matthew Alexander , Naila Rifa Wildanin
Published: December 2023

The research contrasts two historical texts which tell about two different influential kings of Old England and Indonesia, two great nations, namely The Life of King Alfred, written by Asser, and Nagarakretagama, written by Mpu Prapanca. Both texts are biased since the writers are admirers of the Kings. Therefore, the research is aimed to unveil the similarities and differences of the two texts in depicting the Kings. In Asser's 'Life', Asser attempted to lift King ALfred's name by showing the King's achievements throughout his reign. However, many researchers found oddities within the text and suspected that there are embedded political purposes. Similarly, Nagarakretagama is a form of praise towards Hayam Wuruk which tells about the glory of Majapahit and The King.  Mpu Prapanca used historical background to praise the King and the kingdom's magnificence. Both texts have basic similarities in lifting the names and covering the lackness of the Kings. However, since both texts have propaganda properties to some extent, both could not be considered as accurate sources of history.Keywords: Hayam Wuruk, Alfred The Great, Majapahit, Wessex, Asser, Mpu Prapanca,Comparative, History

Kebijakan revitalisasi pasar tradisional di Indonesia merupakan salah satu kebijakan yang masuk dalam program prioritas Presiden Joko Widodo. Pasar Seni Sukawati sendiri mengalami perubahan yang cukup drastis semenjak menjadi salah satu pasar yang mendapat jatah revitalisasi dari pemerintah pusat. Perubahan tersebut menyangkut jenis barang yang diperdagangkan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif untuk melihat perubahan sosial yang terjadi pada paguyuban pedagang di Pasar Seni Sukawati, Gianyar paska kebijakan revitalisasi pasar tradisional. Sudut pandang pedagang pasar atas perubahan sosial paska revitalisasi akan dianalisa secara kualitatif melalui teknik depth interview. Pedagang yang dipilih secara purposive akan menjadi informan utama dalam penelitian ini. Hasilnya adalah perubahan yang terjadi pada paguyuban pedagang pasar seni Sukawati dan paling terasa memberatkan adalah terjadinya perubahan tata kelola di Pasar Seni Sukawati. Perubahan tata kelola ini mencakup berubahnya jenis dagangan yang diperbolehkan untuk dijual di pasar yang selesai di revitalisasi. Pasar Seni Sukawati kini hanya menjual barang kesenian saja tanpa menjual kebutuhan upakara dan kebutuhan pokok sehari-hari. Beberapa pedagang yang mengikuti ketentuan paska revitalisasi ini memiliki beragam ketidakpuasan dan pengetahuan yang masih belum mumpuni untuk beralih jenis dagangan. Hal ini dikarenakan para pedagang belum siap secara mental dan pengetahuan untuk beralih jenis dagangan. Kemampuan manajerial seperti mencari distributor untuk barang khas oleh-oleh dan juga modal yang besar serta waktu balik modal yang lama, membuat para pedagang cukup kewalahan untuk beralih jenis dagangan dibanding jenis dagangan mereka sebelumnya.Kata kunci: Revitalisasi, Perubahan Sosial, Pedagang, Pasar Seni

Class Distinction and the Objectification of Women’s Body in Lucy Kirkwood’s NSFW
Authors: Karaman Mez Elvan
Published: December 2023

Throughout history, some problems have never been solved, and gender discrimination is one of them. While this problem is extremely serious and does not allow women to breathe in some parts of the world, it is also a reality that gender discrimination still continues in developed countries. It cannot be denied that European women had to struggle for equal payment and circumstances even in the 1980s. The cooperation between the capitalist world order and the patriarchal system results in many troubles in women’s social and economic life. Social class primarily creates a big gap with regard to the quality of women’s lives and it results in inequality. In that regard, women in the lower class not only have to endure hard living and working conditions but they also get degenerated and betray their sisters. They are also abused in various ways and the objectification of their bodies is one of the most common forms of abuse they are exposed to. In NSFW, written by Lucy Kirkwood in 2012, these problems and more are brought to attention and dealt with. This study aims to explore class distinction and the objectification of women’s body in different ways from the abuse of women’s bodies to the established and imposed standards for bodily perfection under the influence of the class system in the capitalist economic order.
Design of Co-creation in Rotterdam Central Station (1996-2007)
Authors: Triggianese Manuela
Published: December 2023

This article explores the pivotal role of design as a decision-making tool within multi-stakeholder collaborations, focusing on the early phases of the Rotterdam Central Railway Station and its surroundings project. Spanning from 1996, when it gained National Key Project status, to 2007, when construction commenced, this period precedes the preliminary design, during which the design process becomes the primary method of collaboration among multiple stakeholders, including designers and clients involved in the station area’s development.
After introducing the post-war reconstruction of the station area and the ‘Platform Zero’ experiment, this article defines three key stages of design in the initial phase, each of which left a distinct mark on the station project. These stages are:
- From 1996 to 2001: Design for political communication.
- From 2002 to 2004: Parallel design.
- From 2004 to 2007: Design co-creation and integration.
To provide a comprehensive view of the design’s development, this article includes insights from conversations with architects and planners engaged in the process. In a dynamic exchange between various stakeholders and designers, the evolution of Rotterdam Central Station’s design reveals how political decisions have been informed by thorough design studies, offering a platform for robust discourse on critical issues.
Untangling Stakeholder Dynamics in Circularity of the Built Environment
Authors: Verbiest Ellen , Marin Julie , De Meulder Bruno , Vande Moere Andrew
Published: December 2023

Comics are a known method to visually link characters to context through time. This article explores the medium of comics to untangle stakeholder dynamics in the context of a complex theme such as circularity of the built environment.
Circularity of the built environment tailors concepts of circular economy to the field of construction and urban development. Relying mostly on optimization strategies, context-specific characteristics such as stakeholder agency and spatial preconditions are often disregarded as resources in the design of circularity projects. This results in one-size-fits all circularity instruments formalized in generic toolboxes.
Circularity instruments should additionally engage with stakeholders, recognizing complexity and surfacing the resourcefulness of the territory. This comics series follows the researcher from analysis to design hypothesis, clarifying complexity at hand from the researcher perspective, including stakeholder agendas, spatial conditions, barriers and opportunities.
Part of an ongoing action-research project, the self-reflective comics show parts of a researcher’s journey untangling circularity in the built environment in its multiple stakeholder dimensions. It includes data sourced from mixed method research, such as ethnographic fieldwork, semi-structured interviews, and archival research on two Flemish industry parks, Kortrijk-Noord and Leuven-Haasrode.
These comics function as a narrative assemblage method for critical analysis, bringing together different data sources, and rendering our research process on circularity contextual and visual. Additionally, the comic allows us to communicate, challenge, and begin to design with (hidden) stakeholder agency.
AVRUPA’NIN “ALTIN YILLARI” ve SOVYETLER BİRLİĞİ
Authors: Bekcan Umut
Published: December 2023

1917 Ekim Devrimi sonrası, beklenen dünya devrimi gerçekleşmedi. Bolşevikler tek ülkede sosyalizmi kurmak zorundaydı ve bunun için kapitalist ülkelerle barış içinde yaşamak gerekiyordu. Devrimden sonra yok sayılan, uluslararası sisteme dahil edilmeyen genç Sovyet devleti (30 Aralık 1922’den itibaren Sovyetler Birliği veya SSCB) ekonomik sıkıntıları aşmak için diğer ülkelerle ticaret yapmak zorundaydı. Bunu kolaylaştırmak için de diplomatik tanınma elde etmek istiyordu. 1924 yılında birçok Avrupa devleti tarafından tanınmaktan memnuniyet duydu. Ne var ki, batılılar “parya devlet” saydıkları SSCB’nin varlığını hazmedemiyorlar, gönülsüzce kabul ediyorlardı. Burjuva hükümetleri, işçi sınıfı iktidarını kendi iktidarlarına bir tehdit, tüm Avrupa için bir sorun olarak görüyorlardı. Bunun yanında, Oral Sander’in de belirttiği üzere, Avrupa Siyasi Tarihi’nde 1925-1930 yılları arası, gerginliğin azaldığı, istikrarın arttığı bir dönem olduğu için “altın yıllar” olarak biliniyordu. Ne var ki, bu olumlu ve iyimser havanın kapitalist ülkelerle SSCB arasında henüz kurulan diplomatik ilişkilerle bir ilgisi bulunmuyordu. SSCB için yılların altın olduğu söylenemezdi. Avrupa’nın “altın yılları” SSCB’yi içermek bir yana, (halihazırda 1917’den beri devam eden) onun dahil olmadığı hatta onun aleyhine gelişmelerin de yaşandığı bir dönemi ifade ediyordu.
Bu süreçte, Almanya-Fransa ilişkileri I. Dünya Savaşı’nın ardından olumlu bir noktaya ulaştı. Avrupa’da barış, güvenlik ve istikrar adına önemli gelişmeler yaşandı. Bu bağlamda, bu çalışmada Avrupa’da söz konusu dönemde SSCB’nin dışlandığı ne gibi gelişmelerin yaşandığını ortaya koymak amaçlandı. Öncelikle, 1925’te imzalanan Locarno Antlaşmaları’nın ruhundan, amacından ve Avrupa’nın en güçlü devleti İngiltere ile SSCB’nin yaşadığı gerginlikten söz edildi. Ardından SSCB’nin pek ciddiye alınmayan veya takdir edilmeyen barışın korunmasına yönelik çabaları ve Sovyet karşıtı bir perspektife sahip pan-Avrupa tasarısı üzerinde duruldu.

Authors: Güngör Di Savino Ayşe
Published: December 2023

Günümüzde insan ve doğa arasındaki simbiyotik ilişki nedeniyle çevresel sürdürülebilirlik konusundaki dinamikler giderek artmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, sürdürülebilirlik çerçevesinde, güncel ve küresel ölçekte bir etkinlik olan 59. Venedik Bienali ve bu kapsamda bienalde yer alan güncel sanat çalışmalarının incelenmesidir. Bienal’de çevresel değerleri sanat yoluyla yaymak amacıyla sanatsal çalışmalar başta olmak üzere tüm faaliyetlerde çevresel sürdürülebilirliğin desteklenmesi kararı alınır. Bienal, dönüşen, mutasyona uğrayan doğa ve onunla birlikte yaşayan insanı konu alır. Ayrıca, yaşamın kırılganlığı ve yaşadığımız gezegene karşı sorumluluklarımız hatırlatılır ve “insan- doğa” arasındaki ilişki için denge sağlaması amaçlanır. Bu kapsamda bienalde yer alan çevresel sürdürülebilirlik bağlamında örnek oluşturabilecek çalışmalar yapan üç sanatçı ile bu çalışma sınırlandırılmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda Cecilia Vicuña, Chun Kwang Young, Arcangelo Sassolino’nun çalışmaları içerik analiz tekniği kullanılarak incelenir. Sanatçıların çalışmalarda, insan yaşamını derinden etkileyecek olan çevre ve iklim krizine karşı, entelektüel bir mücadele başlattıkları görülür. Çalışmalarının odak noktası iklim değişikliği ve doğanın korunmasıdır. Çevresel sürdürülebilirlik konusunda topluma rehberlik yapabilecek doğa ile uyumlu olan bu eserler, çağdaşlığın çelişkilerini ve insan-doğa arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırır. Bulgular ortaya çıkarmaktadır ki Bienal süresince çevresel sürdürülebilirlik ile ilgili alınan önlemler ve yapılan çalışmalar sonucunda, gerçekleştirilen tüm etkinlikler için “karbon nötrlük sertifikası” alınmıştır. Küresel ölçekte büyük bir etkinlik olan Bienal’in çevreye yönelik zararı önlenmiştir. Bienal sürdürülebilirlik modellerinin ve stratejilerinin geliştirilmesi için uluslararası bir referans noktası haline gelir. Ek olarak, çevresel sürdürülebilirlik ile ilgili sanatsal çalışmaların sonuçları ve süreçleri gelecekte daha net görülecektir ancak izleyicinin farkındalığı arttırılarak, çevresel durumun karmaşıklığı ve önemi konusunda farkındalık kazanması için tetikleyeci bir araç haline geldiğini söyleyebiliriz.

Published: December 2023

Credit card fraud poses a formidable obstacle in the financial sector, resulting in considerable monetary damages for both individuals and institutions. The necessity for efficient fraud detection systems has become paramount due to the rising number of online transactions and the advancement of fraudulent methods. Machine learning methods have demonstrated potential in tackling this issue by utilizing past transaction data to detect fraudulent behavior. This study provides a thorough examination and evaluation of different machine learning techniques used in the detection of credit card fraud.
The aim of this study is to assess and compare the efficacy of several machine learning algorithms in identifying fraudulent credit card transactions. The dataset utilized for experimentation is acquired from a prominent financial institution, including of both authentic and deceitful transactions. The dataset has been preprocessed to address missing values, outliers, and feature scaling.
A variety of machine learning algorithms, such as “logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines (SVM), and artificial neural networks (ANN),” are utilized and trained on the preprocessed information. The evaluation of each method is conducted using criteria like as “accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. In addition, several evaluation methods, such as k-fold cross-validation”, are used to assure the reliability of the findings.
The empirical findings suggest that machine learning algorithms has the capability to accurately identify fraudulent credit card transactions. The algorithms demonstrate varying performance across different parameters, with certain algorithms displaying higher accuracy but worse precision or recall. The “Support Vector Machine (SVM)” algorithm gets the maximum accuracy rate of 98%, while the “Artificial Neural Network (ANN)” model displays the optimal balance between precision and recall..

Şemseddin ed-Dameğânî ve Şiî Fırkalara Eleştirileri
Authors: AYDIN Şeyma , ÜMİT Mehmet
Published: December 2023

İslam tarihi boyunca fırkalara dair pek çok eser kaleme alınmıştır. Bu eserlerin önemli bir kısmında, fırka tasniflerinde, eseri kaleme alan âlimlerin mezhebî anlayışına göre farklılıklar olduğu görülmektedir. Dönemindeki mezhepleri tasnife tabi tutan müelliflerden biri olan Şemseddin ed-Dameğânî de 8./13. yüzyılda Irak’ta yaşamıştır. el-Cevheretü’l Hâlisa ani’ş-şevâib fi’l-akâidi’l-menkûme alâ cemîi’l-mezâhib adlı elimizde mevcut olan tek eserinde fırkaları kendi bakış açısıyla değerlendirmiş ve onlara birtakım eleştiriler yöneltmiştir. Ayrıca bu eleştirilerini aklî ve naklî delillerle desteklemiştir. Kendi benimsediği görüşü de ortaya koyan Dameğânî’nin bu alandaki kavramlara bakışı ve tecrübelerinin sonucunda benimsediği görüş, İslam mezhepleri tarihinde çok sık görülen bir yaklaşım değildir. Nitekim Dameğânî, İmâmiyye mezhebi üzere yetişmiştir. Ancak İslâm dünyasına yaptığı seyahatlerde İslâm mezheplerini yerinde gözlemleme fırsatı bulmuştur. Nihayetinde ise içinde yetiştiği mezhepten ayrılmış ancak başka herhangi bir mezhebe de tabi olmamıştır. Bu hususta ilmî yetkinliğe sahip kimseye de herhangi bir mezhebe tabi olmayı tavsiye etmez. Ancak böyle bir yetkinliği olmayan kişinin, tercih edebileceği ve kendisinin de tasvip ettiği bazı mezhepleri zikretmektedir. Bu makalede, Dameğânî’nin Şiî mezheplere yönelik eleştirileri kendi eserinden hareketle betimleyici bir tarzda incelenmektedir. O, Şiî mezhepleri üç ana gruba ayırarak eleştirilerini dile getirir. Bunlar Zeydiyye, İsnaâşeriyye ve İsmâiliyye’dir. İmâmiyye mezhebi üzere yetişip, bu mezhebe artık tabi olmayan bir şahsın içeriden gelmiş bir kişi olarak Şiî mezheplere yönelttiği eleştiriler dikkat çekicidir. Onun mensubu olmasa da takdirle bahsettiği Şiî grup Zeydiyye’nin zâhid olanları, Ehl-i Sünnet içerisinden de Sûfilerdir.

conducted on forensic accounting and detection of frauds in the Indian Banking Sector.
The review paper is a holistic study that focuses on forensic accounting, its suitability in uncovering frauds in Indian Banking sector.
An Investigation into indirect effect of NPA on Bank's lending efficiency: A Global Perspective
Authors: Sharma Preeti
Published: December 2023

Purpose: This study aims to examine the impact of the Gross NPA ratio on lending interest rates, bank capital to assets ratio, broad money (M3), and gross capital formation ratio in selected countries.
Design/Methodology/Approach:A balanced panel data approach is employed, utilizing data from 25 countries over an 11-year period (2011-2021). Five different models are utilized to assess the influence of non-performing loans on the selected variables.
Findings: The findings demonstrate that non-performing loans significantly affect lending rates, real interest rates, and the gross capital formation ratio. The Gross NPA ratio exerts an upward pressure on both lending interest rates and real interest rates as NPAs increase. However, no significant impact is observed on the bank capital to assets ratio and money supply.
Practical/Research Implications: The findings of this study underscore the importance of effective NPA management in the banking sector. Policymakers and financial institutions should prioritize strategies that aim to control and reduce NPAs. By doing so, they can help maintain stable and favorable lending interest rates, which are vital for sustaining a healthy economic environment.
Originality/Value: This study adds to existing literature by analyzing the influence of
Gross NPA ratio on economic variables such as lending interest rates, bank capital to assets ratio, broad money (M3), and gross capital formation ratio. The findings emphasize the significance of efficient NPA management in ensuring stable interest rates and overall economic well-being, carrying practical implications for policymakers and financial institutions.
