Understanding the distribution of three species of epiphytic orchids in temperate Australian rainforest by investigation of their host and fungal associates
Authors: Gowland Kelli , Mathesius Ulrike , Clements Mark , Nicotra Adrienne
Published: July 2015

Understanding the environmental constraints that affect species distributions are critical to the mainte- nance of biodiversity. The abundance of epiphytic organisms, those that grow on another substrate, such as a tree or rock, is a direct consequence of the avail- ability and distribution of these substrates (Ackerman et al. 1989). In the case of epiphytic orchids it is also due to the presence of orchid mycorrhizal fungi (OMF). For an orchid, crucial to its germination and establishment, is its association with an OMF. The OMF provides a carbon source to the developing orchid embryo (Rasmussen 1995). Although recipro- cal carbon transfer has been demonstrated in mature plants of a green, terrestrial, orchid species, Goodyera repens (Cameron et al. 2006), it is generally believed that OMF receive no immediate benefit from their association with orchids. Therefore, it would appear intuitive that orchids would associate with all OMF available within their local environment and that they would actively seek this association.
Rare plant restoration on Long Pine Key
Authors: Holst Bruce , Daltröm Stig
Published: July 2015

The Long Pine Key area of Everglades National Park (Florida) is critical habitat for a large number of rare plant species including two candidates for federal listing and several dozen listed as endangered or threatened by the state of Florida. In addition, there are nineteen species present in the Long Pine Key area that are critically imperiled in South Florida and six species historically documented from the area that may be extinct in the continental United States (Gann et al., 2002).
Geological processes and orchid biogeography with applications to southeast Central America
Authors: Kirby Stephen
Published: July 2015

This contribution owes its origins to a paper and presentation by Dr. Calloway H. Dodson at the Second International Conference on Neotropical Orchidology held in San José, Costa Rica in May of 2003 (Dodson 2003). Dr. Dodson outlined some of the reasons to suspect that regional geological fac- tors may play important roles in orchid speciation and biogeography and gave examples from the northwestern South America. He also suggested that evolutionary change in orchid might occur over fair- ly short time periods, perhaps even as short as decades, centuries or millennia (Dodson 2003, SHK lecture notes).
Spatial structure of Pleurothallis, Masdevallia, Lepanthes and Epidendrum epiphytic orchids in a fragment of montane cloud forest in South Ecuador
Authors: Riofrío Lorena , Naranjo Carlos , Iriondo José , Torres Elena
Published: July 2015

Orchids are the most diverse family of vascular plants in Ecuador with 228 genera and nearly 4000 species. More than 60% of these species are epi- phytes, being Pleurothallis R.Br., Epidendrum L., Lepanthes Sw. and Masdevallia Ruiz & Pav., with 472, 358, 314 and 226 species respectively, some of the genera with greater number of epiphytic orchids (Dodson 1994-2003).
The role of CITES Rescue Centers in orchid conservation: concerns and questions raised by the collaboration on an endangered slipper orchid (Paphiopedilum vietnamense O. Gruss & Perner)
Authors: Mirenda Thomas , Wallick Kyle , Gabel Robert
Published: July 2015

The Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) is an international treaty currently adopted by 169 member countries to regulate international trade in over 30,000 species of animal and plants. Plants that are not transported in accordance with CITES requirements may be either denied entry, and sometimes abandoned, or subject to seizure by enforcement officials in importing coun- tries. Instead of being destroyed, abandoned or con- fiscated plants may be returned to the range countries or sent to CITES Rescue Centers, which are public museums or botanical gardens in member countries where the plants are cared for and cultivated.
Working together for orchid conservation – The National Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin and Belize Botanic Gardens
Authors: Sayers Brendan , DuPlooy Heather , Adams Brett
Published: July 2015

The National Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin (NBGG) and the Belize Botanic Gardens (BBG) have been involved in Belizean orchid research since 1997. Staff from NBGG had travelled to Belize on two prior occa- sions with the purpose of collecting living specimens of orchids, bromeliads and cacti, along with seed of other plants to add to the existing glasshouse collec- tions at the Gardens. During the expedition of 1996 the Glasnevin team met Ken duPlooy who had gath- ered a substantial orchid collection for what was to become Belize Botanic Gardens the following year.

Published: July 2015

Mycorrhizal associations of the Orchidaceae - the largest and most diverse angiosperm family with an estimated number of taxa ranging between 17,000 and 35,000 – are highly complex. Plant-fungus inter- actions in this family can range from obligate- or fac- ultative mycotrophy, mutualism, to minimal depen- dence on fungi in adulthood (Smith & Read 1997, Sivasithamparam et al. 2002, Taylor et al. 2002, Cameron et al. 2006).

Investigation of processes leading to the decline of South Australia’s Caladenia species
Authors: Faast Renate , Facelli José
Published: July 2015

Of the 300 species of orchids recorded in South Australia, over one-third have been listed as vulner- able, rare, or endangered (Barker et al. 2005). While direct habitat loss is likely to be the major cause for reductions in the former ranges of species, indirect consequences of habitat fragmentation may be responsible for the continued decline of many species within remnant fragments.

Habitat fragmentation, through land clearing, has been attributed in the demise of many species of plants and animals throughout the world (Kinzig and Harte 2000). Not surprisingly, much research effort has been devoted toward understanding the dynamics of populations subject to fragmentation.
Ecology of orchids in urban bushland reserves – can orchids be used as indicators of vegetation condition?
Authors: Newman Belinda , Ladd Phil , Batty Andrew , Dixon Kingsley
Published: July 2015

The loss of urban native vegetation is a global cri- sis particularly as cities continue to expand and pop- ulations grow. Native vegetation often remains as small isolated fragments embedded in the human matrix of urban development. These remnants become islands of biodiversity that experience vary- ing degrees of degradation due to their high perime- ter to area ratio.
Fungus-assisted reintroduction and long-term survival of two Mexican terrestrial orchids in the natural habitat
Authors: Orega-Larrocea Pilar , Rangel-Villafranco Mónica
Published: July 2015

Preservation of genetic diversity of orchids for con- servation and restoration purposes is now a feasible practice after the ecological studies of seed bank dynamics made by several investigators (Batty et al. 2001, Whigham et al. 2006). However, few studies have demonstrated the reliability of reintroduction of several species into their natural habitat and less, managing symbiotic fungus (Ramsay and Dixon 2003, Zettler et al. 2003).
Trophic relationships in orchid mycorrhiza – diversity and implications for conservation
Authors: Rasmussen Hanne , Rasmussen Finn
Published: July 2015

Orchid species are perennial, and though demo- graphic data suggest that the family includes r- as well as K-strategists (Whigham & Willems 2003), most species are potentially long-lived. Individual plants may be kept in living plant collections or in nature reserves for practically unlimited periods of time. There are several reports on natural populations suspected of little or no seedling recruitment, “senile populations” (Tamm 1991, Rasmussen 1995), espe- cially among rare orchids under critical surveyance. Such populations may function as a seed source to neighbouring areas but are likely to eventually disap- pear from the site.
Traditional use and conservation of the “calaverita” Laelia anceps subsp. dawsonii f. chilapensis Soto-Arenas at Chilapa, Guerrero, México

Published: July 2015

Mexico lodges a heritage of traditional knowledge on use, management and conservation of a great vari- ety of genetic resources tie to its culture and idiosyn- crasy (Davis et al. 1994; Toledo 1991). That heritage is protected in the memory of the indigenous and rural villages of the country, which by means of the daily practice and oral transmission of their customs, have allowed several species to survive, among them some orchids of the genus Laelia (Halbinger and Soto 1997, Toledo 1991).
Propagación in vitro y aclimatización de Euchile mariae (Ames) Withner (Orchidaceae)
Authors: Suárez-Quijada Iris , Hernández-Altamirano Mabel , Chávez-Ávila Víctor , Sandoval-Zapotilla Estela , Martínez-Palacios Alejandro
Published: July 2015

Orchid micropropagation of species Euchile mariae was achieved from the in vitro culture of protocorms sections, obtained from the germination of seeds. The top and bottom protocorms sections, used as explants, were cultivated in modified MS culture medium, added with different concentrations of α-naph- thaleneacetic acid (NAA) and 6-benzylaminopurine (BA). The morphogenetic response obtained of both types of explants, was the formation of protocorm like bodies (PLB’s), that gave place to the formation of new plantlets. Of two tested explants the biggest formation of PLB’s was obtained from the bottom proto- corms sections. The acclimatization of the plantlets was successful, with a 100% percent survival. Plant cell tissue culture represents a useful alternative for the study, conservation and massive propagation of this and other endangered species.
Determinación histológica de regenerantes de Euchile mariae (Ames) Withner, (Orchidaceae), obtenidos a partir de protocormos cultivados in vitro

Published: July 2015

From the germination of seeds of Euchile mariae in modified MS medium, the formation of pro- tocorms was achieved. Once these reached an average size from 2 to 5 mm long and the formation of his first leaf primordium, they were used like explants to induce a morphogenetic response. Through in vitro culture of top and bottom protocorms sections, were obtained differentiated structures from asexual origin. Their morphology was similar to protocorms obtained from the germination of seeds, in this way we call them protocorm like bodies (PLB’s). Through of the histological analysis of these structures it was possible to reveal that these PLB’s turned out to be somatic embryos. The histochemical tests demonstrate the pres- ence of cellular contents like: proteins, lipids and starch; both in the cells of the embryos as well as in the cells of initial tissues.

Micro-environment conditions, mycorrhizal symbiosis, and seed germination in Cypripedium candidum: strategies for conservation
Authors: Wake Carol
Published: July 2015

Cypripedium candidum Muhl. ex Willd. (White Lady’s Slipper), a terrestrial northern United States / southern Canada prairie orchid, reproduces both by seed and adventitious buds from older roots and rhi- zomes. To determine the pollination effects of diverse prairie micro-environments caused by com- peting foliage, particularly with respect to height and density of surrounding flora, ovary development (pollination success) versus ovary abortion (no pol- lination) was recorded for every flower in three diverse populations in eastern South Dakota, USA.
Biosystematic studies in the Brazilian endemic genus Hoffmannseggella H. G. Jones (Orchidaceae: Laeliinae): a multiple approach applied to conservation
Authors: Verola Christiano Franco , Semir Joao , Antonelli Alexandre , Koch Ingrid
Published: July 2015

In recent molecular studies, the orchid genus Laelia Lindl. was segregated in two main groups: Laelia (a Mexican/Central American group), and Sophronitis Lindl. (a South American group) (van den Berg et al. 2000, van den Berg & Chase 2000). Later, other studies argued the legitimacy of this classification, suggesting the segregation of the South American group (Sophronitis sensu van den Berg et al. 2000) in four genera: Hadrolaelia (Schltr.) Chiron & V.P. Castro, Hoffmannseggella H.G. Jones, Dungsia Chiron & V.P.Castro, and Microlaelia (Schltr) Chiron & V.P.Castro (Chiron & Castro 2002).

Pollination analogies between Orchidaceae, Ficus (Moraceae) and Asclepiadaceae
Authors: Ramírez William
Published: July 2015

Las orquídeas, así como Asclepiadaceae, poseen polinios para transportar polen masivamente. Algunos de los géneros de avispas (Agaonidae), que polinizan a los higos (Moraceae: Ficus), poseen cavida- des (sacos torácicos y corbículas coxales) donde el polen se transporta. Estos dispositivos en sendos grupos, probablemente evolucionaron para facilitar el transporte de abundantes granos de polen, por largo tiempo y distancia, sin que éste se deshidrate o se desprenda de los insectos vectores. Estas estructuras condujeron a la evolución de granos de polen pequeños, livianos, semihemisféricos, parcialmente deshidratados, sin orna- mentaciones, colores y olores atractivos. La evolución de estos dispositivos condujo a la evolución de poli- nizadores específicos, a la especiación isopátrica, endemismo y producción de síndromes de polinización análogos. Se postula que los estigmas de Ficus no son receptivos y son secos; consecuentemente, los estig- mas de las flores “agalla” y flores “semilla” se tornan húmedos y receptivos cuando son “picados” por el ovipositor de las avispas. Las estructuras para transportar polen en las avispas de los higos han evolucionado varias veces; y es posible que lo mismo aconteció con la evolución de polinios en las orquídeas. La evolu- ción de estas estructuras en los organismos mencionados, puede haber sucedido durante períodos geológicos de sequía.

Published: July 2015

After a thourough development phase, a new system of health financing was introduced in Hungary in 1993. One of the cornerstones of the system was the financing of acute hospital care through Diagnosis-Related Groups (DRGs). This method was part of a comprehensive healthcare model, elaborated and published around 1990 by experts of Gyógyinfok, a public institute. The health financing system that was finally introduced reflcted in large part this theoretical model, while the current Hungarian system differs from it in some important respects. The objective of this article is to identify these points of divergence. Orv. Hetil., 2015, 156(29), 1155–1164.
Ichthyofauna from the Parque Nacional da Serra dos Órgãos and its surrounding areas, Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil
Authors: Da Silva Camilo Geysa , Terra Bianca De F. , De Araújo Francisco Gerson
Published: July 2015

This study provides a list of freshwater fishes of the Parque Nacional da Serra dos Órgãos (PARNASO; Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil) and its surrounding areas. Fish samplings were performed by electrofishing during the dry season (2010 –2011) in three different areas: 1, inside of the PARNASO (2 sites); 2, in the buffer zone (4 sites); and 3, in adjacent areas (8 sites). A total of 47 fish species in 13 families and six orders were recorded. Fish composition within the limits of the PARNASO differed from that recorded in the adjacent area, with the latter having comparatively higher species richness. The buffer area had intermediate ichthyofauna composition between the two other areas. This study enhanced knowledge on the composition and structure of the fish assemblages in PARNASO, by recording the occurrence of six new species within the park that were not included in the Management Plan of this Conservation Unit.

Published: July 2015

Johnsongrass populations that are resistant to 5-enolpyruvyl-3-shikimate synthase (EPSPS)–, acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase (ACCase)–, or acetolactate synthase (ALS)–inhibiting herbicides are increasingly common throughout the midsouth. Three trials were conducted in 2012, 2013, and 2014 in Fayetteville, AR and Alexandria, LA to evaluate strategies with and without ALS- and ACCase inhibitors for management of rhizomatous johnsongrass in the absence of glyphosate. Fluometuron or fluometuron plus pyrithiobac applied PRE followed by (fb) EPOST, MPOST, and LAYBY tank mixtures containing multiple effective mechanisms of action (MOA) controlled johnsongrass at least 90%. Simplifying the program by removing a herbicide or eliminating an application timing reduced control, and increased vegetative and sexual reproduction of johnsongrass. To manage severe infestations or escapes glufosinate plus clethodim fb glufosinate plus clethodim or clethodim plus pyrithiobac fb clethodim) effectively controlled 15-cm johnsongrass. However, johnsongrass control was reduced when ALS and ACCase inhibitors were tank mixed, especially for the second POST application, compared to ACCase inhibitors alone. Effective herbicide programs are available to growers to control johnsongrass in the absence of glyphosate, but the use of PRE herbicides followed by multiple applications of POST herbicides is critical for successful management.
Design buckling curves for glass columns and beams
Authors: Bedon Chiara , Amadio Claudio
Published: July 2015

Structural glass is frequently used in modern buildings, and numerous scientific contributions in the literature confirm the great interest from designers and researchers in this innovative construction material. However, whereas for the verification of load-carrying elements composed of traditional materials, analytical procedures and consolidated verification methods are available in standards, this is not the case for glass. In this paper a Eurocode-based approach is proposed for the buckling verification of glass columns and beams. Based on experimental and numerical results from the literature, as well as on further simulations performed in Abaqus and earlier literature contributions, calibrated buckling curves are proposed for their stability check and extended to laminated glass beams and columns composed of up to three glass layers. The same verification approach was adopted by the Italian technical document CNR-DT210/2013. The advantage of the proposed curves is that they are calibrated to take into account, by means of equivalent geometrical imperfections, the effects of possible defects, load/boundary eccentricities and residual stresses. At the same time, by means of equivalent thickness formulations discussed in recent contributions, they can be used for the verification of monolithic or laminated elements composed of various glass types.

Limited data currently exist for atmospheric organic carbon (OC) and black carbon (BC) in South Africa (SA). In this paper OC and BC measured in SA were explored in terms of spatial and temporal patterns, mass fractions of the total aerosol mass, as well as possible sources. PM10 and PM2.5 samples were collected at five sites in SA operated within the Deposition of Biogeochemical Important Trace Species-IGAC DEBITS in Africa (DEBITS-IDAF) network. OC were higher than BC concentrations at all sites in both size fractions, while most OC and BC occurred in the PM2.5 fraction. OC/BC ratios reflected the location of the different sites, as well as possible sources impacting these sites. The OC and BC mass fraction percentages of the total aerosol mass varied up to 24% and 12%, respectively. A relatively well defined seasonal pattern was observed, with higher OC and BC measured from May to October, which coincides with the dry season in the interior of SA. An inverse seasonal pattern was observed for the fractional mass contributions of OC and BC to the total aerosol mass, which indicates substantially higher aerosol load during this time of the year. The relationship between OC and BC concentrations with the distance that air mass back trajectories passed by biomass burning fires and large point sources proved that biomass burning fires contribute significantly to regional OC and BC during the burning season, while large point sources did not contribute that significantly to regional OC and BC. The results from a highly industrialised and populated site also indicated that household combustion for space heating contributed at least to local OC and BC concentrations.
DESARROLLO DE REPELENCIA AL AGUA EN SUELOS AFECTADOS POR INCENDIOS, EN UNA ZONA DEL PARQUE METROPOLITANO DEL DISTRITO METROPOLITANO DE QUITO
Authors: Ulloa Carlos , Pazmiño Karina , Cárdenas Daniel , Arcos Cristian
Published: July 2015

La exposición del suelo a temperaturas altas durante la ocurrencia de un incendio forestal, puede inducir el desarrollo de repelencia al agua y otros efectos que alteran la calidad del suelo, entre los que destacan: cambios en el contenido de carbono y de materia orgánica, pérdida de suelo, aparecimiento de flujos preferenciales y erosión. En este trabajo se determinó la severidad y persistencia de la repelencia al agua alcanzada por un suelo previamente quemado dentro de una zona de 13,4 has en el Parque Metropolitano en la Ciudad de Quito. La determinación de la persistencia de la repelencia al agua del suelo se realizó utilizando la metodología de tiempo de penetración de una gota de agua (WDPT) y la severidad de la repelencia se determinó utilizando el test de molaridad de etanol (MED). Los valores más altos de persistencia a la repelencia al agua, fueron determinados a los cuatro meses de haber ocurrido el incendio y permitieron clasificar al suelo afectado por fuego como “Fuertemente Repelente”. Se observó que la persistencia de la repelencia inducida por el fuego fue transitoria y disminuyó con relación al tiempo, determinándose un decremento de la repelencia en las muestras analizadas a los siete y nueve meses. No se encontró una relación definitiva entre el incremento de la repelencia al agua y el aumento de la materia orgánica, que presentó el promedio de concentración más alta a los cuatro meses de ocurrido el incendio (5,88 %).

Análise da produção normativa no direito à saúde dos inimputáveis - doentes mentais infratores (2011-2014).
Authors: Borges Bárbara Alencar Ávila , De Moura Luís Antônio
Published: July 2015

O presente artigo é voltado para o direito à saúde dos doentes mentais que cometeram condutas delitivas. A imputabilidade é a capacidade do agente em entender o caráter ilícito do fato praticado e de determinar-se de acordo com isso. Assim, para o doente mental que não pode ser culpável, imputável e penalmente responsabilizado, criou-se a medida de segurança. Apesar dos avanços da Reforma Psiquiátrica Brasileira, o direito de um tratamento adequado no SUS está distante de ocorrer já que o “louco infrator” é sentenciado com a medida de segurança para tratamento compulsório em Hospitais de Custódia e Tratamento Psiquiátrico. Avalia-se então a abordagem da produção normativa em saúde mental para o cumprimento da política de atenção integral a essa população, já que a estratégia para consolidação da política de saúde mental está na legislação do país. Objetiva-se avaliar o direito à saúde dos portadores de doença mental, considerados inimputáveis, na produção normativa vigente no Senado Federal, da Câmara Legislativa e Ministério da Saúde produzida no período de 2011 a 2014. Diante disso, observou-se que, no campo do Direito Sanitário a legislação em saúde mental envolvendo os loucos infratores é pouco estudada e legislada. Mediante vários posicionamentos acerca do tratamento em saúde desses indivíduos, há necessidade de atualização das normativas sobre o tema e a vinculação com o setor de justiça no país. A partir daí, discutem-se os obstáculos ao avanço do direito à saúde mental e as possibilidades de sua superação. Por fim, aponta-se a necessidade de fortalecimento de políticas de saúde e de mudanças nas práticas judiciais.
Contrato Organizativo da Ação Pública da Saúde: Instrumento de Gestão Administrativa em prol da Responsabilidade Sanitária
Authors: Santos Paloma Pereira Almeida de Castro
Published: July 2015

A Reforma Sanitária Brasileira (RSB), consagrada como movimento de setores da sociedade, revela sua participação na elaboração do texto constitucional, que visou estabelecer a saúde como direito social. Posteriormente a esse processo, de forma contínua e concomitante, pode-se perceber que a RSB contribuiu com debates que culminaram na elaboração de leis que versam, em sua maioria, sobre a descentralização do SUS, enfatizando os instrumentos de gestão e promoção da saúde na União, nos Estados, no Distrito Federal e nos Municípios. Nesse contexto, surge como um elemento do Sistema Único de Saúde – SUS, o Contrato Organizativo da Ação Pública da Saúde (COAP), cujo objetivo é unificar e integrar as ações dos entes federativos, subsidiárias e complementares, levando em consideração as necessidades da região de saúde, dando ênfase à responsabilização dos gestores da saúde. Num panorama de fortalecimento da gestão da saúde, a responsabilidade sanitária, observada especialmente no COAP e no Projeto de Lei do Senado nº 174/2011, para alguns estudiosos, como expletiva, vistas a regulamentação vigente acerca da responsabilidade civil atribuída à atividade estatal e a repartição de competências dentre os entes federativos e por outros, é concebida como importante instituto em prol de maior efetividade na prestação da saúde, carecendo de especificidade na tipificação. O presente artigo explicita, acerca da responsabilidade sanitária, questões a serem consideradas em ambos os institutos (COAP e PLS) e indica que, em termos evolutivos, há muito a se caminhar, porém, é indiscutível o desenvolvimento social já alcançado, no tocante à gestão compartilhada na saúde brasileira.

Published: July 2015

Tendo como premissa o entendimento de que a participação social nas decisões do Estado é condição essencial para o exercício da saúde em sua concepção ampliada, o Movimento de Reforma Sanitária liderou um processo de constantes lutas pela redemocratização do país e das políticas de saúde. Como desdobramento, a participação social nas políticas de saúde tornou-se norma constitucional e fomentou a criação da Política Nacional de Gestão Estratégica e Participativa do SUS, entendendo os mecanismos de gestão participativa como estratégias transversais que possibilitam a formulação e a deliberação pelo conjunto de atores no processo de controle social. Foi realizada uma revisão bibliográfica da literatura sobre o tema da gestão participativa nas políticas de saúde, focalizando os componentes “A Gestão Participativa e o Controle Social no SUS” e “A Ouvidoria do SUS”, da ParticipaSUS. Para tanto, foram consultados artigos científicos, teses e dissertações nas bases de dados Scielo, Lilacs e Bireme. A gestão democrática e participativa em saúde engloba o adequado funcionamento dos mecanismos institucionalizados de participação social, ampliando a legitimidade das ações governamentais e fomentando a equidade e a transformação das ações em saúde. A ampliação da participação social em saúde enfrenta muitos desafios que requerem proatividade do Estado e da Sociedade e a integração dos mesmos com vistas a aprimorar e garantir a eficácia dos mecanismos de participação e promover a reorientação do modelo assistencial em saúde. Este trabalho objetiva analisar instrumentos de gestão participativa utilizados no âmbito do SUS, reconhecendo a importância da participação social neste processo e delineando os principais desafios à implementação de dois componentes da ParticipaSUS.

Reclamos de autodesignación identitaria a través del espejo mediático
Authors: Martínez Suárez Yolanda , De Salvador Agra Saleta
Published: July 2015

With Alice, in Through the Looking Glass, we analyzed the construction of identities from the binomial self-designation - hetero-designation, based on the dual logic in which the identity configuration is inserted and we examined the access to the media and the public sphere. The leap to self-designation involves the transit from the object to the subject, the reformulation of the “space of equals” and the elimination of “ identical space”. The Web offers new opportunities for recognition and self-designation. In that sense, with Alice, we analyze the mediatic “forest” that lies across the screens, to glimpse which space is reserved for the marked minority groups, to see how the media tribunal appoints or allows them to be appointed.
A survey on the development of Islamic higher education in Indonesia: an epistemological review
Authors: Sa'adi Sa'adi
Published: July 2015

Social changes, development and advancement of humans’ culture influence education
as inseparable aspect of human life. In line with Islamic higher education
many thinkers proposed their ideas of how to formulate its appropriate epistemological
background in different views. There are some notable persons for
this field, such as Iqbal, Fazlur Rahman, Afzalur Rahman, Al-Faruqi which to
some extent parallel or influence Indonesian thinkers’ such as Mukti Ali, Harun
Nasution, Cak Nur, Amin Abdullah, etc. Some are still at the level of speculative
thought, while others have applied their ideas in educational institutions, like
Amin Abdullah and Imam Suprayoga.
Perubahan sosial, perkembangan dan kemajuan kebudayaan umat manusia
memengaruhi pendidikan yang merupakan bidang yang tak terpisahkan dari
kehidupan manusia itu sendiri. Dalam hal pendidikan tinggi Islam, para pemikir
mengajukan berbagai gagasan mereka tentang bagaimana merumuskan dasardasar
epistemologinya yang paling tepat. Ada beberapa tokoh pemikir penting
yang perlu dicatat (dari luar negeri) dalam hal ini seperti Iqbal, Fazlur Rahman, Afzalur Rahman, al-Faruqi, yang dalam batas tertentu secara paralel atau
memengaruhi para pemikir Indonesia seperti Mukti Ali, Harun Nasution, Cak Nur,
Amin Abdullah dan Imam Suprayoga. Sebagian dari pemikir tersebut masih pada
dataran pemikiran spekulatif, sementara yang lain sudah mengaktualisasikannya
dalam implementasi kelembagaan pendidikan tinggi Islam, seperti Amin Abdullah
dan Imam Suprayoga.
Scholarly feminist versus internet commentator on women issues in Islam
Authors: Nurdin Ahmad Ali
Published: July 2015

This article discusses two different types of contemporary writings both
“scholarly feminists” and “internet commentators” on women in Islam;
particularly issues related to gender equality such as women’s rights, status
and creation. By comparing two different groups of writers, the objective of this
paper is to discover whether there are significant differences between them on
issues of women in Islam, which shed light on modern Islamic thinking. From a
brief investigation of several books as representatives of scholarly feminists, and
several websites, which publish many articles on women in Islam, as
representatives of Internet commentators, it is clear that both groups seem to
have similar attitude on the topic. They tried to clarify a common misperception
of women in Islam which is commonly portrayed to be “a second class”. Moreover,
it is clear that the message of ‘Internet commentators’ seem to be more
effective and more likely to prevail.
Artikel ini membahas dua tipe tulisan-tulisan kontemporer, baik dari kalangan
“feminis terpelajar” maupun “komentator internet” mengenai perempuan dalam Islam; utamanya berkaitan dengan persoalan-persoalan keadilan gender, seperti
hak-hak kaum perempuan, status dan penciptaan mereka. Dengan
membandingkan dua kelompok penulis ini, tujuan artikel ini adalah untuk
menemukan apakah ada perbedaan signifikan antara kedua kelompok ini mengenai
masalah-masalah perempuan dalam Islam yang mewarnai pemikiran Islam
modern. Dari penelitian singkat atas beberapa karya yang mewakili kaum feminis
terpelajar dan beberapa websites yang memublikasikan banyak artikel tentang
perempuan dalam Islam, sebagai representasi dari komentator internet, jelas
bahwa dua kelompok ini memiliki keserupaan sikap atas topik tersebut. Mereka
mencoba menjelaskan kesalahpahaman umum tentang perempuan dalam Islam
yang biasanya digambarkan sebagai “kelas kedua”. Juga tampak bahwa pesan
dari para komentator internet lebih efektif dan berhasil.

Authors: Yehorycheva S. B.
Published: July 2015

Using the methodological principles of the Balanced Scorecard the author developed the foundations of a system for monitoring and evaluation of banking innovation strategy which is an important tool for its implementation. The elements of this system are the strategic innovation map built in terms of four perspectives that reflect the logic of the formation of bank’s innovation results, and a set of key performance indicators that measure the specific results of strategy’s implementation on certain check dates.The Balanced Scorecard of Innovation (BSCI) includes criteria that reflect the following innovative objectives: in perspective of learning and growth – staff professional development, increasing of innovation activity, the creation of innovation culture, innovative leadership development; in perspective of internal business processes - creating a highly effective innovative process, improving the brainstorming, ensuring the efficient activities of cross-functional teams, formation of the optimal innovation portfolio; in customer perspective - increasing the number of customers, their satisfaction and loyalty, improving of serviceability; in financial perspective - creating innovation bonus by increasing benefits from innovations and reducing operating costs.The proposed key performance indicators are the basis for creating individual maps for bank’s employees which are designed separately for each level of bank’s organizational structure and are used in the incentive system of staff’s innovation activity. To maximize the effectiveness of BSCI implementation it should be integrated with the whole system of bank management - planning, management accounting, reporting, and information support.
