Den nordiska etnologikulturen i mötet mellan öst och väst
Authors: Lönnqvist Bo
Published: June 2023

När etnologer och folklorister från de nordiska länderna samlas kring begreppet rum, - rummet är Europa, som förutsätts driva en kulturell integration - , ligger betoningen på det processuella, på nutiden och på etnologins plats som vetenskap i detta. Det var genom rummet som etnologin blev möjlig i tiden. I rummet fanns mångfalden = kulturen, i rummet fanns den andre = folket, och genom rummet skapades distansen som behövdes för ämnets identitet.
Texten är en bearbetad version av ett föredrag vid den 29. Nordiska etnolog- och folkloristkongressen i Helsingör 6.5.2003.
Och han satte det i lagen
Authors: Bregenhøj Carsten
Published: June 2023

I följande presentation skall en alldeles liten och blygsam enskildhet i etnologins vitspännande fält avhandlas i ett försök att svara på frågan varifrån våra maskeringstraditioner vid jultid härstammar. Svaret bygger på några överraskande överensstämmelser mellan till synes inkompatibla källor, och källkritiken är det inledande bekymret. Tidsmässigt genomgås först ett kort skede i norsk vikingatid då kristendomen knackade på hos nordborna. Ungdomen med europeisk utbildning och ambitioner är återflyttaren Hakon Adelsteinsfostre, senare kung och av eftervärlden kallad den Gode, som gör ett avtal med de hedniska bönderna om att fira jul samtidigt som den kristna minoriteten. Lagtexten definierar när julen bör avslutas men inte hur. Här blir texten nödvändigtvis packad med språkliga detaljer och termer, med exempel och textförklaringar relaterade till julfirandet, och avsnittet avslutas med vetskap om att lagen har existerat men utan kännedom om hur den fungerade.

Authors: Ade Irma Suryani  , Jamaris Jamaris , Solfema Solfema
Published: June 2023

Student learning outcomes in geography are generally not maximal and satisfactory, presumably because the learning process does not support students' understanding, that is, too much memorization, and they are not equipped with field practices. This study aims to determine: (1) the learning outcomes of students who are taught inquiry learning strategies using online exe-learning media compared to students who are taught inquiry learning strategies using offline exe-learning media; (2) the learning outcomes of students who have open interpersonal communication compared to students who have closed interpersonal communication; and (3) interaction between learning strategies using exe-learning media and interpersonal communication on student learning outcomes. The research method is quasi-experimental. The results showed: (1) the learning outcomes of students who were taught using inquiry learning strategies using online exe-learning media were higher than the learning outcomes of students taught using inquiry learning strategies using offline exe-learning media with a large influence; (2) the science learning outcomes of students who have open interpersonal communication are higher than the science learning outcomes of students who have closed interpersonal communication with the magnitude of the influence; and (3) there is the interaction between inquiry learning strategies using exe-learning media and interpersonal communication on students' science learning outcomes.

Internally Displaced Persons in Nigeria: Durable Solution, Assessment and Reviews
Authors: Adeleye O. A. , Aremu J. O.
Published: June 2023

The protracted internal displacement crisis in Nigeria has led to significant challenges for the affected population and has strained the country's resources and infrastructure. This paper focuses on the issue of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Nigeria, exploring the concept of durable solutions, the importance of comprehensive assessments, and the necessity of regular reviews in addressing their plight. The concept of durable solutions forms the cornerstone of addressing displacement crises, aiming to provide sustainable outcomes for IDPs. This study examines the three recognized durable solutions: voluntary return, local integration, and resettlement, and analyzes their applicability in the Nigerian context. It emphasizes the need for a holistic approach that considers socio-economic factors, security conditions, and the protection of IDPs' rights. Comprehensive assessments play a vital role in understanding the needs and vulnerabilities of IDPs, facilitating informed decision-making and resource allocation. This study highlights the importance of conducting thorough assessments, including demographic data, living conditions, access to basic services, and psychosocial support. It emphasizes the role of government agencies, humanitarian organizations, and research institutions in undertaking these assessments to guide effective interventions. Regular reviews of displacement situations are crucial to monitor progress, identify gaps, and adapt strategies accordingly. This study emphasizes the significance of periodic evaluations of policies, programs, and interventions aimed at addressing internal displacement in Nigeria. It underscores the importance of stakeholder involvement, including IDPs themselves, in these review processes to ensure their perspectives are considered and their voices heard. Furthermore, the work acknowledges the challenges inherent in addressing the plight of IDPs in Nigeria, including limited resources, security concerns, and the complexity of the underlying causes of displacement. It emphasizes the need for a coordinated and multi-stakeholder approach, involving the government, humanitarian actors, civil society, and the international community, to achieve durable solutions for IDPs.
Revisiting Innovation Typologies among Agro-food Small and Medium-Size Enterprises (SMEs) in a Developing Country
Authors: Amah Chiedu Florence , Oshi Joseph E. O.
Published: June 2023

Innovation has been identified as an enhancer of competitiveness of Small and Medium-Size Enterprises (SMEs). Moreover, a growing body of scholarly research demonstrate the that organisations stand to gain competitive advantage if they combine the right mix of culturally embedded innovative and knowledge sharing practices. Despite the vast amount of studies that have spawned concerning innovation in SMEs, very few have been done among Agro-food SMEs in developing countries of Sub-Saharan Africa, such as Nigeria. Given the importance of the agri-food sector, particularly with respect to the many SMEs in developing countries, this study considers it fruitful to identify the typologies of innovation of such firms in Nigeria, in order for them to compete in world markets. Moreover, this study draws its relevance from the fact that agri-SMEs in Nigeria still lag behind those in developed countries in terms of innovation. Based on the reviewed literature, this study advances two conceptual frameworks for further studies on Agro-food SMEs in developing countries, viz: (i) the relationship between culturally-embedded innovation and competitiveness (ii) the relationship between knowledge-based innovation and competitiveness.
Intersectionality Theory and Leadership Futures: Policy Pathways Toward Reinventing Gender Spaces for Educational Leadership in Two Male Schools in Ghana
Authors: Odei-Tettey Kwame , Ayivor Adeline Esinam A. , Dodzi Esther
Published: June 2023

This paper examines the advances made on gender issues in Ghana, particularly regarding how far misogyny is being watered down in educational leadership. The article thence reflects on how society might resolve the question of the effects of misogyny on educational leadership futures and the associated possibilities, and decisively address this enervating question in the decades ahead. The paper discusses how individuals and groups are resisting and challenging their experiences of gender inequalities, as well as attempting to intervene and correct the causes and consequences of gendered power imbalances. The paper does not intend to assess all the facets of gendered life and inequality. Instead, it discusses arguments that have been put forward regarding re-engineering gender spaces for educational leadership futures. Data obtained from two all-boys’ schools suggest that gendered inequality is visible in both public and private spheres. However, the validity of the arguments that gender inequalities are still entrenched and persisting over time, place, and culture is contrasted with alternative claims from the data that gendered power relations, and for that matter inequalities, are gradually being eroded. Furthermore, the current academic focus on the concept of intersectionality regarding how variables like gender, tribe, religion, and culture intersect to define people’s gendered experiences, is used as the analytical framework. The study of women’s educational leadership experiences in this paper is used as a framework to further examine these issues and address some of the debates. The paper concludes with an argument that the study of inequality in relation to gendered identities, relations, and experiences must continue with an exploration of the study of men and masculinities if the theoretical analysis of gender is to be enriched to re-invent genders spaces for educational leadership futures. We also argue the view that to set the agenda for a more equal educational leadership future, society must see the need to link gender closely to other forms of social inequalities.
The Influence of Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation in Workers’ Productivity: Empirical Evidence from the Construction Industry
Authors: Ndudi E. Francis , Kifordu A. Anthony , Egede Nwawuku Matteo
Published: June 2023

The human resource remains the most critical productive asset of any organization as it is the human element that gives direction and dynamism to the organization. This study investigated the effect intrinsic motivations and extrinsic motivations have on employee productivity of four selected construction companies in Delta State. To achieve its objectives, the study adopted a quantitative research approach with a survey research design. From a population figure of 242 low-level permanent employees of the four selected construction companies in Delta State, 151 constituted the sample as data were collected through a structured questionnaire using the cross-sectional approach. Descriptive statistics and simple regression analysis were used to analyze the data gathered and test the study hypotheses. Findings revealed that intrinsic motivation has a significant positive effect on employee productivity and extrinsic motivation also exerts a significant positive effect on employee productivity. Also, the most effective tools of extrinsic motivation are competitive salaries, extra work bonuses, and opportunities for promotion. Based on these findings, it was concluded amongst others, that the desire to gain mastery and contributes to societal development through construction-related activities gives low-level construction workers some level of satisfaction and financial-related incentives have an immediate and powerful effect on their performance. The key recommendation of the study is that to make a foster high level of productivity from the employee, top management should adopt a performance-based payment system and sell the benefits of contributing to societal development to the construction workers, acknowledging their contribution through noble initiatives like recognition from an authority, opportunity for mentoring, participation in decision making.
Impact of the Abuse of Dominance in the EU Coupled Intraday Electricity Markets on the Integration of Renewable Energy Sources (RES)
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Podlesnaya Alina V. ,   PJSC NOVATEK
Published: June 2023

The article is devoted to a problem of the abuse of dominance in the EU coupled intraday electricity markets and the consequences of such abuse for the integration of RES generation. The relevance of the study is due to the increased interest in the role of competition policy in achieving sustainable development goals. The problem under consideration is revealed by an example of an investigation by the UK Office of Gas and Electricity Markets (Ofgem) into EPEX electricity exchange about the abuse of dominance at coupled intraday auctions between Ireland and the UK. The following results were obtained in the study. Firstly, it is established that the abuse of dominance in coupled intraday electricity markets may manifest itself in access denial by the essential facility owner (EPEX) for its competitors (Nord Pool power exchange) to the necessary infrastructure for coupled intraday auctions (shared order book). Secondly, it is proven that the coupled intraday electricity market is an important mechanism for integrating RES generation into the energy system due to the possibility of real-time trading and optimization of cross-border capacity allocation between coupled markets. Thirdly, it is revealed that access denial for competitors to the shared order book for coupled intraday auctions reduces the liquidity of the considered market due to the cut-off of some bidders. It is shown that reduced liquidity of the intraday electricity market hinders elimination of imbalances in the energy system arising from the volatility of power generation from RES. Therefore, it is concluded that the violation of competition in the coupled intraday electricity markets via abuse of dominance can hinder the cost-effective integration of RES generation and greening of the power industry.

Published: June 2023

Digital image files or images are sometimes a valuable asset. Digital images that are private and confidential are very vulnerable to interception by other parties, especially if the image is distributed via the internet. To increase the security of digital images so that their confidentiality can be maintained, a special technique is needed to protect digital image messages, namely with cryptographic techniques. This study aims to determine the performance of the SIMON algorithm for digital image security. SIMON algorithm performance results are compared with the vigenere cipher algorithm in terms of time and image file size produced. In this study used base64 encode for the encryption process and base64 decode for the decryption process. The performance of the SIMON algorithm in securing digital images results in an average encryption time of 969 ms and an average decryption time of 1537 ms. The SIMON algorithm requires a longer time for the encryption and decryption process when compared to the Vigenere algorithm. The cipher image encrypted by the SIMON algorithm has a size larger than the original file by 36%. However, when compared to the cipher image encrypted by the Vigenere algorithm, there is no significant difference. The UACI value obtained from the SIMON algorithm cipher image obtained an average yield of 18.94%. Based on the theory of differential analysis, it can be said that this value is still vulnerable to differential attack. This is based on the UACI value which has not met the minimum threshold value of 33%.
Wavelet Denoising Applied to Hardware Redundant Systems for Rolling Element Bearing Fault Detection
Authors: Helm Dustin , Timusk Markus
Published: June 2023

This work presents a novel wavelet-based denoising technique for improving the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of non-steady vibration signals in hardware redundant systems. The proposed method utilizes the relationship between redundant hardware components to effectively separate fault-related components from the vibration signature, thus enhancing fault detection accuracy. The study evaluates the proposed technique on two mechanically identical subsystems that are simultaneously controlled under the same speed and load inputs, with and without the proposed denoising step. The results demonstrate an increase in detection accuracy when incorporating the proposed denoising method into a fault detection system designed for hardware redundant machinery. This work is original in its application of a new method for improving performance when using residual analysis for fault detection in hardware redundant machinery configurations. Moreover, the proposed methodology is applicable to non-stationary equipment that experiences changes in both speed and load.

Published: June 2023

The subject of curriculum fidelity continues to be a crucial area of investigation to uncover how the responsible stakeholders implement the curricula developed in relation to their intended purpose. This study investigated the institutional factors influencing curriculum fidelity in vocational training centres in Kampala, Uganda. Specifically, this study examined the influence of instructors’ self-efficacy, institutional support, and leadership effectiveness on curriculum fidelity in vocational training centres. This quantitative study adopted the correlational research design. The study involved a sample of 108 instructors from eight selected vocational training centres in Kampala, Uganda. The data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire. Descriptive statistics and inferential analyses, specifically Pearson linear correlation and regression, were used to analyse the data. The findings revealed that instructors’ self-efficacy, institutional support, and leadership effectiveness positively and significantly influenced curriculum fidelity. The study concluded that instructors’ self-efficacy is imperative for curriculum fidelity, institutional support is essential for curriculum fidelity, and effective leadership is vital for curriculum fidelity. Therefore, it was recommended that the Ministry of Education and Sports and principals of vocational training centres should enhance the efficacy of instructors; vocational institutions should offer support to the instructors to ensure curriculum fidelity; and the Ministry of Education and Boards of Governors should ensure that vocational training centres have effective leadership. The practical contribution of the study is that it identifies institutional factors necessary for curriculum fidelity. These are instructors’ self-efficacy, institutional support, and leadership effectiveness.

Authors: NYAHUNA Thomas , DOORASAMY Mishelle
Published: June 2023

By concentrating on determining the effect of mandatory carbon disclosure on financial performance, the study assists corporate managers in effectively understanding the significance of carbon information disclosure and searching for enhanced ways of amplifying carbon disclosure. The paper examines the impact of mandatory carbon disclosure on the corporate financial performance of 45 Johannesburg Stock Exchange-listed cement and mining companies considered carbon-intensive entities from 2014 to 2021. This examination is based on the legitimacy theory. To attain the critical aim of the study, panel regression analysis is conducted with the assistance of SPSS 28. Financial performance was measured by return on assets, return on equity and net profit margin. Carbon disclosure was measured by carbon disclosure scores developed by Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). The study reports that all financial performance proxies are positively and significantly related to carbon disclosure. To upsurge financial performance, the sampled companies must keep extensively disclosing carbon information in their annual reports per the mandatory expectations. Therefore, this paper provides evidence that mandatory carbon disclosure is a source of better financial performance and critical for the corporate sector to accomplish sustainability.
Assessment of Households’ Perception Towards Participatory Forest Management the Case of Heban Arsi Woreda, Ethiopia
Authors: GIRMA Gonche
Published: June 2023

Understanding the perceptions of local communities towards participatory forest management (PFM) is essential for successful improvements of PFM regarding forest conservation and livelihood improvement. However, there is a lack of research evidence on the perception of local communities for PFM intervention. To better understand the local communities’ perception of PFM, 131 households were surveyed. Data were collected through the household survey; key informant interviews (KIIs), focus group discussion (FGD), and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results show that the households perceived that there is no deforestation due to the intervention of PFM which leads increment of species diversity, increasing of forest coverage, increased productivity of the forest, and increase valuable species. Respondents also perceived that the PFM has opportunities to change a negative attitude to a positive through giving of power to the local community, enables bounded members, bringing the right to exclude non-PFM members, creates a sense of belongingness, and encourage the right to use the forest products. The finding demonstrated forest income was second contributor of household income among income sources. Actions such as better protection of existing forests to avoid overuse, access to alternative livelihood diversification, better access to market, access to better skills and knowledge on the collection and use of forest products and reforestation were suggested to increase the existing benefits and management of PFM. The finding of the study suggests further improvement of local communities’ perception and attitudes as well as providing alternatives to improve forest conditions and livelihood.

This paper aims to examine various types of local wisdom that are carried out in managing peatlands in a sustainable manner within the framework of community-managed areas (wilayah kelola rakyat). The concept consists of four components, there are Tata Kuasa (Governance), Tata Kelola (Management), Tata Produksi (Production) and Tata Konsumsi (Consumption) which will be used as a peatland management framework. The use of this concept is expected to be a guide in managing peatlands through improving village governance and implementing agroindustry on peatlands based on local wisdom. The research was conducted in 16 villages in two districts in Jambi Province, Tanjung Jabung Barat and Tanjung Jabung Timur. The methods used are field observations, interviews and literature studies related to local wisdom, village governance and agroindustry. The results obtained are that actually the village community is able to utilize and process natural potential with existing local wisdom and is able to implement it in the form of village governance through drafting village regulations and processing agricultural products as part of agroindustry.
Ramifications of Violent Protest on the Environment
Authors: DAMOAH Benjamin
Published: June 2023

South Africa has been repeatedly ranked as one of the world's most dangerous countries due to its high level of violence. The country is currently facing a surge of violent protests, which is largely due to a lack of service delivery in communities. The frustration of citizens with the government's unfulfilled promises is a common reason for such protests. University students are also not immune to such violent protests, which often disrupt academic activities. These protests lead to injuries and damage to government buildings, causing harm to both the community and institutions. Additionally, violent protests have disastrous environmental repercussions affecting air quality, aquatic and marine ecosystems. To address this issue, the study suggests that environmental education should be intensified to sensitize the public about the effects of violent protests on the environment. Using the theoretical lens of frustration-aggression theory, the study explored the effects of violent protests in South Africa. The findings highlight the need for urgent action to address the root causes of violent protests, such as inadequate service delivery. The study also emphasizes the importance of raising awareness of the environmental impact of violent protests, and the need for environmental education to be prioritized in the country. By addressing these issues, it is hoped that violent protests will be reduced and a more peaceful and sustainable future can be achieved for South Africa.

An increase in population in Surabaya City may have an impact on the activities of industrial, trade and service centres. One of the most important supporting facilities is the transportation sector. The use of fuel in transportation is the main cause of the impact on air quality. This study aims to evaluate the concentration of carbon monoxide on main roads in Surabaya City and to analyse the effect of vehicles on carbon monoxide on the main roads in the city of Surabaya on covid-19 transition. The research was conducted in the field by directly measuring the concentration of carbon monoxide and the number of vehicles on three main roads in Surabaya. The results of carbon monoxide measurements and the number of vehicles were analysed using linear regression. This research reveals that in general, the carbon monoxide concentration has exceeded the air quality standard based on Government Regulation no. 22 of 2021. This result indicates that many people have travelled for various activities in the city after the covid-19 outbreak. In addition, based on the results of the linear regression test, it is known that there is a significant effect of the number of vehicles on the carbon monoxide concentration (?<0.05).

Authors: WAHYUNI Ni Made , ASTARA I Wayan Wesna , DEWI Kadek Goldina Puteri
Published: June 2023

Catur Kintamani Village has been designated as a tourist village based on Bangli Regent Regulation Number 4 of 2018. Tourism trips with beautiful rural nature are the turning point for developing rural tourism. The situation analysis found that the  tourism village faced the challenge of low local and domestic tourist visits, economic opportunities. Low intention to visit is influenced by management practices. Research has found that visits increase profits(Abbasi-Moud, Vahdat-Nejad, & Sadri, 2021). On the other hand, intense business competition, societal behavior and lifestyles put pressure on organizations to introduce alternative management to provide intentions to visit. The purpose of this community service is to strengthen the tourist village as an economic institution. The selected partner is a tourism awareness group (Pokdarwis). Through a series of participatory training methods attended by 5 participants, partners' knowledge and skills in the field of tourist destination management increased. The results of management optimization education and training show an increase in competence in marketing, human resource management, operations and financial management. PKM activity increases knowledge insight, changes in  behavior of marketers, manages resources (natural and human) and finances.

Islamic banks in Indonesia have only been operating for about 25 years. This is still relatively new compared to conventional banks which have been used for more than a century. Various regulations were made to support the development of Islamic banks. This paper will examine the scope of the national banking legal system and the implementation of sharia principles in the material law of the national banking legal system. From the results of the study it was concluded that: (1) The legal system of Islamic banking in Indonesia consists of three components of the legal system, namely legal substance (material law and formal law), structure, in the form of institutions that support Islamic banking, and culture, both corporate culture , as well as the culture of society. This is in accordance with the elements of the legal system put forward by L. Friedman. (2) The implementation of sharia principles in material law within the scope of the national banking legal system has been embodied in laws and regulations in the banking sector which contain sharia principles. Hierarchically starting from the constitution, namely the 1945 Constitution, Government Regulations, Financial Services Authority Regulations, National Economic Law Compilation and DSN-MUI Fatwas. However, in a number of regulatory matters (material law) Islamic banking is still the same as conventional banks.
