Keberpihakan Yesus kepada si kaya atau si miskin: Sebuah kajian biblis pada injil-injil kanonik
Authors: Sitanggang Asigor Parongna
Published: September 2024

Rich and poor are an ancient enigma as old as humanity. The Bible contains many narratives about the problem of the rich and poor. Jesus was very often in touch with the issue of rich and poor. The four canonical gospels provide many accounts of Jesus' response to the question of rich and poor. Therefore, a study of the canonical records is necessary to reveal Jesus’ partisanship, whether to the poor or the rich. This paper demonstrates this partisanship, i.e., embracing both groups where He is the meeting point. As the new body of Christ, the church continues the role of Jesus as a bridge for both groups to meet and make peace. A more extraordinary task is given to the rich to help the poor out of their poverty. Jesus offers a third way.
 
Abstrak
Persoalan kaya dan miskin adalah persoalan yang sangat tua, setua kemanusiaan itu sendiri. Alkitab berisikan banyak narasi mengenai persoalan kaya dan miskin. Yesus sendiri sangat sering bersentuhan dengan persoalan kaya dan miskin. Keempat injil kanonik memberikan banyak catatan mengenai respons Yesus mengenai persoalan kaya dan miskin. Karenanya mempelajari catatan-catatan kanonik diperlukan untuk menyingkap keberpihakan Yesus, apakah kepada kelompok orang yang miskin atau kelompok orang yang kaya. Makalah ini menunjukkan keberpihakan tersebut, yang mana adalah merangkul kedua kelompok di mana diri-Nya adalah titik temu. Gereja sebagai tubuh Kristus melanjutkan peranan Yesus tersebut yaitu menjadi jembatan bagi kedua kelompok tersebut, bukan hanya untuk bertemu tetapi berdamai. Tugas lebih besar diberikan kepada mereka yang kaya untuk membantu yang miskin keluar dari kemiskinannya. Yesus menawarkan jalan ketiga.
Keadilan sebagai imparsialitas koheren dalam tradisi penghapusan utang bangsa Yahudi: Proses dialektika trilateral bersama John Rawls dan Amartya Sen
Authors: Moru Osian Orjumi
Published: September 2024

Justice is one of the fundamental issues in human life. This fact has placed the issue of justice as one of the essential goals fought for in various dimensions of human life. One form of effort to fight for justice is establishing the tradition of debt forgiveness in the history of the Jewish people. Dialectically, the concept of justice in the debt forgiveness tradition is the most progressive and proportional compared to John Rawls and Amartya Sen's idea of justice. This concept of justice is referred to as coherent impartiality. The notion of justice as coherent impartiality has four principles that become its primary foundation. The four principles are the principle of local wisdom, the principle of proportional participation, the principle of procedure, and the teleological principle. These four principles become the basic principles of justice in the concept of coherent impartiality that can bridge the gap between the concepts of justice of closed impartiality and open impartiality based on the context of Jewish life. Justice as coherent impartiality emphasizes the balance between universal and contextual values of justice.
 
Abstrak
Keadilan merupakan salah satu persoalan mendasar dalam kehidupan umat manusia. Fakta tersebut telah menempatkan persoalan keadilan sebagai salah satu tujuan penting yang diperjuangkan dalam berbagai dimensi kehidupan manusia. Salah satu bentuk usaha untuk memperjuangkan keadilan adalah pembentukan tradisi penghapusan utang dalam sejarah bangsa Yahudi. Jika dipercakapkan secara dialektis, konsep keadilan dalam tradisi penghapusan utang merupakan konsep keadilan yang paling progresif dan proporsional daripada konsep keadilan John Rawls dan Amartya Sen. Konsep keadilan ini disebut sebagai imparsialitas koheren. Konsep keadilan sebagai imparsialitas koheren memiliki empat prinsip yang menjadi fondasi utamanya. Empat prinsip tersebut yakni prinsip kearifan lokal, prinsip partisipan proporsional, prinsip prosedur, dan prinsip teleologis. Keempat prinsip itu menjadi prinsip dasar keadilan dalam konsep imparsialitas koheren yang dapat menjembatani kesenjangan antara konsep keadilan imparsialitas tertutup dan imparsialitas terbuka berdasarkan konteks kehidupan bangsa Yahudi. Keadilan sebagai imparsialitas koheren menekankan keseimbangan antara nilai-nilai keadilan yang bersifat universal dan kontekstual.
Women at The Wheel, Less Tax at The Deal? Moderating Tax Avoidance: The Role of Public Ownership
Authors: Firmansyah Amrie , Tamimi Abdul Hakim At
Published: September 2024

This study examines the relationship between board gender diversity (BGD) and corporate tax avoidance (TA) in publicly traded companies within Indonesia's Consumer Cyclical sector. Utilizing a panel data regression analysis, this study investigates the impact of BGD on TA and explores the moderating role of public ownership (PO) in this relationship. The findings reveal that BGD negatively influences TA, suggesting that greater gender diversity on boards of directors leads to reduced tax avoidance practices. However, the moderating effect of PO weakens this relationship, implying that the impact of BGD on TA is less pronounced in companies with higher levels of public ownership. The study contributes to the literature on corporate governance, taxation, and gender diversity by highlighting the nuanced interactions between these factors in the Indonesian context.
Regional Tax and Economic Growth in Indonesia
Authors: Samudro Herry
Published: September 2024

Indonesia targets economic growth to increase continuously every year, but on the other hand, state revenues depend on taxes. Almost 80% of state revenue comes from taxes and this will certainly have an impact on economic growth in Indonesia. The amount of tax applied to society can have a positive or negative effect on economic growth, depending on how the country uses the tax revenue. In theory, a country's economic growth can be seen from the amount of regional tax revenue in that country, the regional work participation rate, the human development index in the region, the poverty level in the region, and the regional Gini ratio. So, in this research, the author wants to test the influence of the factors above on economic growth in Indonesia. The author uses secondary data from 34 provinces in Indonesia from 2018 to 2022 which comes from the Directorate General of Fiscal Balance (Ministry of Finance) and Statistics Indonesia. The results of this research show that regional tax revenues have a negative effect on economic growth in Indonesia. The same thing is also shown by the factors of work participation rate, human development index in the region, poverty level in the region, and regional Gini ratio which have a negative influence on economic growth.

Keep Winning with WinRed? Online Fundraising Platform as the Party's Public Good
Authors: Kim Seo-young Silvia , Li Zhao
Published: September 2024

What determines the relative importance of extended party networks versus party leaders in parties' campaign strategies? We synthesize theories of party organizations by highlighting the interplay between formal institutions and extended networks, using an example from U.S. campaign finance. Online platforms are increasingly important in political fundraising, and party-wide platform coordination increases efficiency for any party. However, parties' strategies sharply diverged: ActBlue for Democrats was created outside of and run independent of the party leadership, while WinRed for Republicans was created and controlled by party elites. We argue that asymmetries in the composition and incentives of extended party network members allowed ActBlue to grow organically but hindered natural coordination for Republicans. Analyses of platform communications and solicitation strategies show that, indeed, only the GOP actively intervened in members' platform choices to overcome coordination failures. Matched-panel analysis proves the strategy effective; Republican candidates reaped sizable fundraising rewards from joining WinRed.

Digital Policy and the Strengthened Role of the European Central Executive. An Introductory Overview
Authors: Heidebrecht Sebastian
Published: September 2024

Digitalisation has developed into a central political issue of the 21st century. The European Union is championing its distinctive “human-centric” model for the digital sphere amid growing concerns about disinformation, surveillance and excessive market power. Facing external challenges and perceived lagging in the digital economy has created a need to promote digitalisation in the EU, leading to policy changes and a redefined approach to internet governance. It has also led to institutional changes within the EU. To address the challenges of the digital economy, the EU adopted several legislative packages that ultimately changed the role of the Commission and gradually empowered a central executive. However, it is one thing to have more powers and another to use them responsibly. Therefore, more public intervention powers may require greater democratic control.
Relative Importance of Lexical Features in Word Processing During L2 Reading
Authors: Nahatame Shingo , Uchida Satoru
Published: September 2024

Word processing during reading is known to be influenced by lexical features such as length, frequency, and predictability. This study examined the relative importance of these features in word processing during L2 English reading. We used data from an eye-tracking corpus and applied a machine-learning approach to model the data and identify key predictors. Predictors comprised several lexical features, including length, frequency, and predictability (e.g., surprisal). Additionally, sentence, passage, and reader characteristics were considered for comparison. The analysis found that word length was the most important variable across several eye-tracking measures. However, for certain measures, word frequency and predictability were more important than length, and in some cases, reader characteristics such as proficiency were more significant than lexical features. These findings indicate that different factors become more important at various stages of word processing, highlighting the complex cognitive processes involved in word processing during L2 reading.
Private protected areas exhibit greater bias towards unproductive land compared to public protected areas
Authors: Sharma Roshan , Jones Simon , Bastin Lucy , Gordon Ascelin
Published: September 2024

Globally, private protected areas (PPAs) have become an important tool for biodiversity conservation. While they are expanding in size and number, there is limited evidence on their potential impact on avoiding biodiversity loss, and how this impact compares to the public protected areas (PAs). The impact of protection is measured as the actual biodiversity outcome within the area protected relative to the hypothetical outcome without protection. To maximise this positive impact, PAs need to be placed strategically on land that both harbours biodiversity and would be at risk of losing some of the biodiversity if it were not protected. We evaluate and compare the locations of PPAs and public PAs relative to random sites of similar governance type, and a range of covariates that capture biodiversity and the risk of biodiversity loss. We utilised data from a national PA database, and high-resolution data on nationally significant threatened species and indicators that capture risk of biodiversity loss at a continental scale in Australia. We find that PPAs tend to target areas of high threatened species richness. However, on average, PPAs are placed in areas that have lower risk of being cleared compared to randomly selected private land. We observe that this bias towards unproductive land is more prominent in PPAs when compared to public PAs. As nations work towards effectively conserving and managing at least 30% of the world's lands by 2030 under the new Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, it becomes essential to prioritise PAs and PPAs that deliver impacts on avoiding biodiversity loss rather than solely focusing on areas that represent biodiversity.
Uncertainty quantification through the Monte Carlo method in a cloud computing setting
Authors: Cunha Jr Americo , Nasser Rafael , Sampaio Rubens , Lopes Helio , Breitman Karin
Published: September 2024

The Monte Carlo (MC) method is the most common technique used for uncertainty quantification, due to its simplicity and good statistical results. However, its computational cost is extremely high, and, in many cases, prohibitive. Fortunately, the MC algorithm is easily parallelizable, which allows its use in simulations where the computation of a single realization is very costly. This work presents a methodology for the parallelization of the MC method, in the context of cloud computing. This strategy is based on the MapReduce paradigm, and allows an efficient distribution of tasks in the cloud. This methodology is illustrated on a problem of structural dynamics that is subject to uncertainties. The results show that the technique is capable of producing good results concerning statistical moments of low order. It is shown that even a simple problem may require many realizations for convergence of histograms, which makes the cloud computing strategy very attractive (due to its high scalability capacity and low-cost). Additionally, the results regarding the time of processing and storage space usage allow one to qualify this new methodology as a solution for simulations that require a number of MC realizations beyond the standard.
Humans decide to help others more often in poor environments

Published: September 2024

Prosocial behaviours are essential for solving global challenges. Typically these behaviours are measured using economic games or tasks where people decide between helping or not. However, in everyday life, current behaviours are interrupted with alternatives. Across three samples, people (total n=510) watched a movie whilst encountering opportunities to interrupt it to benefit another person or themselves. Crucially, participants decided in poor and rich environments where the average reward values of opportunities changed. We demonstrate a robust environmental influence on decisions that benefit others. People were more willing to interrupt their behaviour to help others in poor compared to rich environments. Computational modelling revealed that the opportunity costs of different environments were valued distinctly for others. Factors of utilitarianism, empathy and motivation, captured variability in opportunity costs for others. We show that when we decide to engage in prosocial behaviours depends on the environment which is critical as environments change.
Identity and Informational Differences in Concept Relations for Social-Societal Institutions
Authors: Vargas Roberto , Verstynen Timothy D.
Published: September 2024

Social groups represent a collective identity defined by a distinct consensus of concepts (e.g., ideas, values, and goals) whose structural relationship varies between groups. Here we set out to measure the geometry of inter-concept semantic associations, what we refer to as a concept graph, and see how it covaries between established social groups, based on racial identity, and how this effect is mediated by information ecosystems, contextualized as news sources. Group differences among racial identity (278 Black and 294 White Americans) and informational ecosystems (Left- and Right- leaning news sources) are present in subjective judgments of how the meaning of concepts such as healthcare, police, and voting relate to each other. These racial group differences in concept graphs were partially mediated by the bias of news sources that individuals get their information from. This supports the idea of groups being defined by common conceptual semantic relationships that partially arise from shared information ecosystems.
Historic narrowing of employment gap post-pandemic, especially for people with cognitive disabilities
Authors: Cobo-Lewis Alan B
Published: September 2024

BACKGROUND: People with disabilities are underemployed. This improved recently, but how broadly across disability type? US law allows employers to pay people with disabilities far below minimum wage, typically in segregated settings (sheltered workshops), if employers hold federal 14(c) certificates. Almost everyone in 14(c) employment has an intellectual/developmental disability. Some states have eliminated sheltered workshops, and the Biden administration may propose phasing them out. This is controversial.OBJECTIVE: To examine employment patterns pre- and post-pandemic among people with disabilities and patterns in use of sheltered workshops.METHOD: We analyzed American Community Survey data on employment rate, by type of disability (or lack of disability), for 2010-2023, Department of Labor data on 14(c) subminimum wage certificates in Community Rehabilitation Programs for 2010-2024, and Department of Labor data on number of workers paid subminimum wages in such programs for 2015-2024.RESULTS: American Community Survey data show the disability employment gap narrowing post-pandemic for every disability category—but narrowing especially dramatically for people with cognitive disabilities. Long-term, the employment gap for people with cognitive disabilities narrowed in every state while Department of Labor data show 14(c) enrollment decreasing in every state.CONCLUSION: Research to inform public policy and hiring and retention practices should take advantage of the post-pandemic improvement in the employment gap for people with disabilities, especially cognitive disabilities, and marketing investments should promote them.
A Protectionist Bias in Proportional Politics: Assessing How Electoral Institutions Affect Tariff Levels
Authors: Pinheiro Flavio
Published: September 2024

o electoral rules affect the level of trade protection in democratic countries? Recent studies indicate that when it comes to trade protection, electoral systems do matter; however, a thorough analysis of the literature unveils the fact that competing theories and mixed findings still prevail. In this work, I intend to solve the empirical and theoretical puzzle involving political representation and trade policy by offering and testing an alternative explanation. My answer lies in the Stigler-Peltzman (S-P) analysis of regulation, formalized by Chang et al. in \emph{Electoral Systems and the Balance of Consumer-Producer Power}. I adapt their theory and evaluate the effect of electoral institutions on the level of trade protection. More specifically, I analyze 53 democracies from 1996 to 2008 and estimate the effect of electoral systems' level of responsiveness, measured as electoral disproportionality, on trade protection. The findings indicate that the higher the rate of proportionality created by electoral institutions, the greater the level of protection that politicians will provide for special interest groups, especially in non-presidential democracies.
Prevalence of Intestinal Worm Infestation and its Associated factors among Children in Rural Village of Eastern Nepal: A community based study
Authors: Shrestha K. , Yadav K.R. , Singh G.K. , Kumar P.
Published: September 2024

Introduction: Parasitic diseases have been with mankind since time immemorial and even today they are important obstacles to the development of economically less favoured countries. According to the World Health Organization estimates, 870 million children live in the areas highly prevalent to them. The prevalence varies in Nepal from 13%-81% even up to 100% in some rural areas. Periodic community based surveys are important to assess the intensity of infection and foster the preventive strategies.
Method: A community based qualitative and quantitative cross sectional study was carried out in the department of Microbiology, Nobel Medical College from May 2022 to Dec 2022. The data was collected using various questionnaires and then plastic containers were distributed to bring stool sample for examination using standard methodology.
Result: Among 200 samples, 38 (19%) showed parasitic infections in which 17% showed single and 2% showed mixed parasitic infection. The highest prevalence of parasitic infection was seen in age between 5-10 years and males outnumbered females (M:F=1.7:1). The majority of them were helminths and high prevalence of intestinal parasitic infection was seen in participants who had gastrointestinal symptoms, hand-washing without soap; irregular/no nail trimming, water without purifying and those who missed biannual deworming.
Conclusion: The present study reveals high prevalence of intestinal worms in the study population which indicates living conditions and low standards of sanitation in the society and calls for long term control measures to improve their living conditions, including treatment of the infected individuals.

Convergence of Economic Growth in The Bandung Metropolitan Area
Authors: Kharisma Bayu , Wardhana Adhitya , Hotma Priscillya
Published: September 2024

This study aims to determine the convergence and acceleration of growth to achieve steady-state conditions in the Bandung Metropolitan Area in 2010-2022. This research uses a quantitative descriptive approach by measuring variables and analyzing data statistically. Secondary data is used in this study to analyze convergence through panel data regression analysis and coefficient of variation. The results show that sigma convergence for the Bandung Metropolitan Area does not show convergence. The gap in the Bandung Metropolitan Area will decrease in less than 13 years. The absolute and conditional beta convergence results in the Bandung Metropolitan Area show convergence. Labor productivity is expected to accelerate economic growth due to the previous year's economic growth; the absolute beta convergence results do not significantly affect economic growth in the study year. Therefore, local governments are expected to focus on resource redistribution and infrastructure investment to increase the growth potential of lagging regions. In addition, investment in basic infrastructure such as roads, electricity, water, and health facilities should be increased in lagging regions to create conditions conducive to economic growth. Finally, encouraging inter-regional cooperation to share resources and knowledge can help lagging regions to catch up.

The research results highlight the effectiveness and breadth of the methods and work tools used by banks to support the efforts undertaken at the European level to limit the negative effects produced by climate change.
Placement of Small Producers in Large Retail Chains
Authors: Mađarac Sandra Mrvica , Filipović Zvonimir , Stojanović Slobodan
Published: September 2024

In the Republic of Croatia, there are almost no retail chains in which a large representation of domestic products has not become a de­velopment and marketing imperative. Small producers need to know how and in what way to market their products in order to reach the market and increase their sales. Several strategies can be used when placing products of small producers in retail chains. One of the strategies is “Field to Table”. This strategy is part of the EU’s green plan, and it aims to respond to the challenges of sustainable food systems. With the “Field to Table” strategy, the inextricable mutual connection between healthy people, healthy soci­eties and a healthy planet is confirmed, with an emphasis on high quality and geographical origin. The strategy “Eat What’s Worth It” is implement­ed by the Croatian Chamber of Commerce to increase the consumption of local products and raise the culture of their consumption. Domestically pro­duced products have become a business imperative for large retail chains, and they implement various marketing campaigns to increase their sales and find the appropriate market segment of customers. For the purposes of this paper, research was conducted on the position of small domestic pro­ducers in large retail chains and strategies and marketing campaigns that are implemented in the marketing of their products.
Challenges to Legal Education in the Modern Digital World

Published: September 2024

In recent years, there have been different approaches to legal ed­ucation in Law Faculties. All of them aim at better and quality assimilation of the taught matter by the students. Given the rapid pace of digitalization in all spheres of public life, the issue of the application of new technologies and the place of artificial intelligence in legal education is of particular im­portance.

On the Risk Management in Land Consolidation Projects
Authors: Marinković Goran , Ilić Zoran , Nestorović Žarko , Matić Anđelko
Published: September 2024

Land consolidation (LC) as a power tool for land management is, in fact, a project of high complexity level. The high complexity of projects is a potential source of its failure. The complexity of land consolidation pro­jects (LCP) is a consequence of the huge number of stakeholders, sensitiv­ity of land ownership, and legal rights of land owners. The huge number of stakeholders causes a huge number of uncertainties because one stake­holder could have numerous interests and could not make the best decision in the situation of a sensitive relationship between different nuances in cer­tain circumstances. Lack of reliable information could also be a source of risk for issues in the land consolidation project realization as well as the peri­od of its realization. The duration of land consolidation project realization is another important factor that could cause problems or even failure.
Mobile Banking Acceptance in Austria and Romania: An Empirical Study
Authors: Domuta Ana Diana , Strauss Christine
Published: September 2024

The global surge in mobile banking, accelerated also by the COV­ID-19 pandemic, has heightened competition in the banking sector, empha­sizing the need to understand mobile banking adoption across countries. However, cross-cultural research in this field appears to be limited, especial­ly in Austria and Romania. This study uses the Unified Theory of Adoption and Use of Technology (UTAUT) to investigate factors influencing mobile banking acceptance in both countries. Data was collected from 425 partic­ipants in Austria and Romania. The results of the hierarchical multiple re­gression analysis highlight that performance expectancy is the primary pre­dictor of mobile banking acceptance. Effort expectancy, facilitating condi­tions, and trust show varied effects across countries. The findings suggest fi­nancial institutions should prioritize performance, risk, and social approval in marketing mobile banking in both countries, with an additional focus on trust in Austria and ease of use in Romania.
The Impact of Standards and Patents on Economic Growth in Western Balkan Countries
Authors: Cakrani Edmira , Ceko Enriko
Published: September 2024

Standards are documents that determine the rules and establish conditions for the production of products, the offering of services, the man­agement of processes, etc. Since the standards are formulated by consensus, the application of the standards by businesses and organizations is impor­tant because they are considered guarantors of quality. Businesses that ap­ply international standards have a competitive advantage and offer great­er value to their consumers. Patents are exclusive rights granted to an innovation, which provide inves­tors with protection of their intellectual property. The number of patents in a country is an indicator of the technological development of that country. It can influence economic growth, by encouraging investments in research and development, promoting competition and innovations, facilitating knowledge spillovers, etc. The purpose of this research paper is to analyze the possible relationship be­tween international ISO standards, patents, and economic growth in 5 West­ern Balkan countries. Panel data, for the period 2013-2021 is used to investi­gate this relationship. In addition to the number of standards, in the model are included other variables, such as gross capital formation, employment level, and innovation index as a proxy for the patents. The Hausman test suggests that the appropriate model is the fixed effects model. There is little research that investigates the impact of standards and patents on econom­ic growth. This paper complements the literature on this topic.
Engel Expenditure Curves for Households in the Slovak Republic and Income Elasticity of Expenditure
Authors: Hošková Elena , Zentková Iveta
Published: September 2024

The paper aims to investigate how household income in the Slo­vak Republic affects household expenditure on various goods and servic­es. The data are drawn from the Statistical Office of the Slovak Republic for the period 2005-2022. The impact of income on expenditure was quantified through Engel expenditure functions for 11 groups of goods and services. The results of the regression analysis indicated that expenditure on all the goods and services under study increased with the increase in income. In­come elasticities of expenditure indicated that the expenditure of a house­hold with two children was the most elastic to a change in income. For ex­ample, the income elasticities of expenditure for transport and post and tel­ecommunications were 1.791 and 1.2 respectively. The Engel curves for these goods converge to line 45. Expenditure trends for households with three or more children could be explained by income only for some goods and ser­vices. In general, these households also responded less elastically to chang­es in income compared to other households.

RESTORATION OF RIAU SULTANATE-OTTOMAN RELATIONS (1857-1904):
Authors: Alaeddin Tekin
Published: September 2024

During the second half of the nineteenth century there was a resurgence in relations and cooperation between the Malay Archipelago and the Ottoman Empire. Historical analysis of the policy followed by the Ottoman Caliphate in its relations with the Riau Sultanate contributes to a better understanding of the relations between the Ottoman Empire and the Malay World. The historical background of the relations between the two regions is mainly characterized by a lapse of approximately three centuries (c. 1570-1850), the reasons for which are analysed in this study. The main purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the Ottoman State and the Sultanate of Riau through primary sources, from 1857 to 1904. The Riau Sultanate, an important polity in the Malay World, re-established its relations with the Ottoman State in 1857, and these continued until 1904, as expounded in detail in this study, based on Ottoman archives. This study extends knowledge of the neglected area of Ottoman-Malay relations with substantive new insights for contemporary cultural directions in relations between modern Turkey and the Malay World.
