Raznovrsni prosti brojevi
Authors: Franušić Zrinka , Pavlinić Nikola
Published: May 2020

Prost broj je vrlo jednostavan matematički pojam koji se pojavljuje u vrlo različitim oblicima. Prostim brojevima fascinirani su matematičari ali i amateri od davnina. Na prvi pogled izgleda kao da se u skupu prirodnih brojeva pojavljuju se sasvim slučajno, no pomnijim promatranjem mogu se ustanoviti mnoge zakonitosti kao i slutnje koje su još daleko izvan dosega naših matematičko-logičkih spoznaja. Ono što znamo da ne postoji čarobno pravilo ili čudotvorna formula koja proizvodi proste brojeve, no ipak proste brojeve volimo tražiti u nekim specijalnim oblicima bilo da se radi o egzaktnoj formuli, svojstvu ili vanjskom izgledu koje moraju zadovoljiti. U ovom radu ćemo predstaviti samo neke oblike prostih te ukazati na njihovu raznovrsnost. Istraživanje različitosti prostih brojeva ponekad nalikuje dobroj mentalnoj gimnastici, no s vremenom to prerasta i snažno potiče razvoj teorije brojeva i teorije algoritama te nalazi učinkovitu primjenu u kriptografji. Ne čudi stoga što su se proučavanjem različitih oblika prostih brojeva bavili, a danas se time bave, mnogi amateri koji su doprinjeli razvoju znanosti.

PEMANFAATAN TANIN DARI KULIT KAYU BAKAU SEBAGAI BAHAN PEREKAT PAPAN PARTIKEL
Authors: Siswanto Siswanto , Hasna Fadhila Widya Ulfa , Abdillah Yusron Rizal
Published: May 2020

Limbah serbuk kayu di Indonesia saat ini sangatlah banyak, dan bila dibiarkan serbuk kayu tersebut akan membusuk yang akan berdampak pada pencemaran lingkungan. Salah satu cara untuk mengurangi pencemaran tersebut adalah dengan memanfaatkan serbuk kayu sebagai bahan dalam pembuatan papan partikel. Selain menggunakan sebuk kayu, dalam pembuatan papan partikel ini membutuhkan perekat agar partikel-partikel serbuk kayu terikat satu sama lainnya, dan perekat yang akan digunakan adalah tanin dari kulit kayu bakau. Penggunaan tanin ini diharapkan bisa menjadi alternative perekat yang ramah lingkungan. Pembuatan papan partikel ini dilakukan dengan persiapan bahan baku terlebih dahulu, yaitu mengekstrak tanin dari kulit kayu bakau menggunakan pelarut berupa etanol 96% dengan suhu 70oC selama 3 jam. Setelah itu dilanjutkan dengan proses pembuatan papan partikel dengan cara mencampur secara rata antara serbuk kayu dan tanin dengan variasi 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, dan 40%  yang sebelumnya telah dicampur dengan formaldehid sebanyak 2% dari berat serbuk kayu untuk selanjutnya  dilakukan pengepresan dengan suhu kempa 125oC, 150oC, 175oC, 200oC, dan 225oC. Hasil yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa pengempaan dengan suhu 150oC diperoleh nilai maksimal untuk MOR sebesar 10,4322 kgf/cm2 dan pada penambahan tanin sebesar 30% diperoleh nilai maksimal untuk MOR sebesar 8,009 kgf/cm2, namun nilai tersebut belum sesuai dengan SNI

Process Evaluation of Training Model for School-Based Mental Health
Authors: German Valeria Chavez , Falco Lia D.
Published: May 2020

There is a need to examine collaborative mental health practices in geographic regions serving high populations of under-represented minority and low socio-economic status youth in order to reduce the barriers in access to care and support. In response, a counselor education program at a large land-grant university in the Southwestern United States worked in collaboration with a local school district to create a school-based mental health program. The program provides no-cost and timely mental health counseling services to students and their families using a practicum training model. This article presents process evaluation data that examine program level functioning during the implementation stage of the training model. Implications for program improvements in the next phase of implementation are discussed as well as implications of this type of service delivery model within the context of counselor education and social justice.
Indigenous Ways of Knowing as a Philosophical Base for the Promotion of Peace and Justice in Counseling Education and Psychology
Authors: Grayshield Lisa , Mihecoby Washo , Mihecoby Anita
Published: May 2020

Nowhere in my language can I find support to bring an increased awareness of the current life challenges that exist today. Internal Peace in our individual lives and external Peace for our communities and our world entails that we ourselves be peaceful people. I once asked my elders to translate the word peace in our language. They looked at each other thoughtfully, bewildered at my inquiry, smiled and replied in agreement, digum hi’ki 'angaw hulew' (Let's all get along and respect one another). Peace in my language is not an abstraction. Peace happens when everyone is working together in a way that benefits everyone including those yet to come. In this way there is no mistake. Peace is not just a state of being, or doing, it is both. It is who we are. It is based on respect for one another. From this consciousness we can create a beautiful world for everyone. As a Washo Native American scholar I share my experience in Western academia, describe the inconsistency between the praxis of Indigenous Ways of Knowing and that of the field of counseling psychology. I share the way that I know how to make a better world for all by acknowledging the significance of Indigenous perspectives on counseling psychology in theory, research, and practice.
Are Consultation and Social Justice Advocacy Similar?: Exploring the Perceptions of Professional Counselors and Counseling Students
Authors: Moe Jeffry L. , Perera-Diltz Diana , Sepulveda Victoria
Published: May 2020

An exploratory pilot study was conducted to investigate the views of present and future counselors on whether and in what ways social justice advocacy and consultation may overlap and possibly synergize. Descriptive results indicate that study participants (n = 203) viewed (a) basic counseling skills, (b) problem-solving, (c) acting on behalf of clients, and (d) contextualizing client or student issues in relation to oppression as services that both consultants and advocates engage in. Practices such as diagnosis or direct action were viewed as unique to either consultation or advocacy. A multivariate analysis of covariance revealed that participants differed in their perceived similarity between consultation and advocacy based on the interaction of their practice setting and ethnic or racial identification. Implications for future research and theory are discussed.

Exhumation processes are described in fourteen Latin American countries. They have been classified into four categories: 1) collective massacres (Guatemala, El Salvador, Colombia and Peru, 2) persons detained and disappeared as a result of state policies (Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil and Paraguay), 3) collective violence (Venezuela, Mexico and Panama) and 4) selective deaths under democratic regimes (Ecuador and Honduras). The events are described that made it necessary to start the exhumation process and other processes, analysing psychosocial accompaniment for relatives, whether it has been provided, and attempting to draw lessons from each experience on order to develop processes still outstanding in this and other continents.
Multicultural Social Justice and Human Rights: Strategic Professional Development for Social Work and Counseling Practitioners
Authors: Barrett Jessica A.
Published: May 2020

Social work and counseling practitioners routinely provide services to clients of diverse cultural backgrounds. Multidimensional issues related to human diversity, social justice and human rights often prevent practitioners from providing competent and effective services to all populations. It is vital that these professionals focus on individual leadership development from a multicultural social justice perspective. The concept of social justice challenges existing structures and when paired with the human rights paradigm can significantly impact competent and ethical service delivery and practice. A focus on professional development among students, new professionals, and experienced practitioners can aid individuals in implementing human rights and social justice strategies within individual practice, organizations and communities.

Multicultural-Social Justice Leadership Strategies: Counseling and Advocacy with Immigrants
Authors: Chung Rita Chi-Ying , Bemak Fred , Grabosky Tomoko Kudo
Published: May 2020

Immigration in the United States has been steadily increasing. Accompanying the largest influx of migrants into the U.S. during the past 20 years have been stereotypes and myths about immigrant populations. Growing concern about the shifting demographics has resulted in political debates on immigration, discrimination, hate crimes, and escalating controversy about undocumented people, all of which has caused strong proponents for and strong opponents against stringent migrant policies and legislation. Changing demographics, policies, and falsehoods about migrants have led to increased mental health concerns within the migrant groups that require counselors and psychologists to understand and effectively work with the unique needs of migrants in culturally responsive ways. This article dispels some of the myths about immigrants and provides examples of culturally responsive interventions specifically targeting the distinctive experiences of migrant populations. Recommendations on advocacy activities and strategies for this group are also provided.

What to do about the boys? Advocating for system change when doing social justice work with girls
Authors: Brinkman Britney G. , Brinkman Kandie G. , Toomey Shannon
Published: May 2020

Girls‟ Studies has been a quickly growing field, which has included work focused on interventions designed to improve the lives of girls. Programs have been developed and utilized to address eating disorders and body image concerns, self-esteem, access to math and science mentors, experiences of sexism, and others. In this paper, we describe a social justice intervention designed to recognize and increase girls‟ resiliency. First, we provide a brief overview of current research and programming with girls and boys to provide a context for the intervention and the challenges that arose. Next, we describe how we navigated within a school system, managed mixed support from school personnel, and addressed male students‟ backlash about the girls‟ participation in the program. We include information from workshops and interviews with the adolescent girls to highlight their voices regarding their experiences of interpersonal sexism with their male classmates. We conclude with three key lessons we learned from this work, including the need to: address the systems in which girls live, consider the implications of an “empowerment” model, and anticipate possible areas of resistance. We pose these lessons in the hopes that we can contribute to dialogues amongst researchers, counselors, and scholars who are engaged in social change work and face challenges or barriers that may arise while doing this work.

Heuristic Understanding as a Component of Collaborative, Interdisciplinary, Social Justice Advocacy Research
Authors: Bauman Stephanie , Acker-Hocevar Michele , Talbot Danny
Published: May 2020

This article describes the experiences of three university colleagues with a common interest in, and commitment to, the retention of students from traditionally underserved populations including those who are racial/ethnic minorities or first-generation college. Using Moustaka’s (1990) phases of heuristic understanding as an organizational framework, we discuss our use of autoethnography to arrive at new understandings of ourselves as researchers and our area of inquiry. Consistent with social justice advocacy research, this research collaboration has the potential to inform efforts to empower traditionally underserved college students and to facilitate transformational change in an institution of higher education.

"What's under There?" The Questioning of Civil Rights for Sikh Men
Authors: Ahluwalia Muninder K.
Published: May 2020

On the heels of the highly publicized deaths of multiple Black youth in the U.S., the case of Trayvon Martin is yet another tragedy. While we mourn his loss, his death should also be seen as a call for justice for him, and more broadly a call for social justice. In this manuscript, parallels between the Black and Sikh communities in the U.S. are highlighted. In particular, the suspension of rights of and violence against Sikh men and boys in the U.S. and globally are identified along with examples of social justice action taken by Sikh organizations and mental health professionals in response to acts of oppression. This article represents a call to action for all communities to engage in support of social justice across groups.
Restorative Justice for Trayvon Martin
Authors: Lyubansky Mikhail
Published: May 2020

Two cities. Two people of color fatally shot by those charged with security and law enforcement. Two communities torn apart across racial lines. One city reacts conventionally with criminal charges and court proceedings. The other similarly engages the legal system but additionally engages in a Restorative Circle, a restorative process designed to create conditions for mutual understanding and repair of harm. In this article, the case of Trayvon Martin is juxtaposed with a less well-known case in Seattle involving the death of Native American woodcarver, John T. Williams. The two cases are summarized and examined in terms of their racial dynamics and the subsequent differential impact of the restorative response on the Seattle community.
Moving from Words to Action: Reflections of a First Year Counselor Educator for Social Justice
Authors: Williams Joseph M.
Published: May 2020

This article provides a personal narrative of my experience as a first year counselor educator organizing and facilitating a public panel discussion held at George Mason University in response to the murder of Trayvon Martin. The panel discussion provided an opportunity for open, honest, and constructive dialogue among students, faculty, staff, and community members on such topics as individual and institutional racism, stereotypes of Black masculinity, gun control laws, hate crimes against young Black men, the myth of a post-racial United States, and what we can do as citizens to prevent such tragedies in the future. I will also discuss the lessons learned, not only about organizing a public forum, but about taking the initiative.

Published: May 2020

What does it mean to practice critically in community settings? How do counselors, psychologists, social workers, community development workers, and other human service practitioners get beyond patching up the wounded and sending them back to contend with the toxic conditions in communities and society? What individual and organizational beliefs and practices would support those in need while simultaneously contributing to changing social conditions? This paper explores a model of critical community practice that highlights the theoretical underpinnings, practical applications, and organizational implications of community practice that is more radical and transformative. It also serves as an introduction to the four papers that follow in this special section.
Re-Thinking Youth Suicide: Language, Culture, and Power
Authors: White Jennifer , Kral Michael J.
Published: May 2020

In this article we set out the context and provide the theoretical resources for re-thinking youth suicide as a sociocultural, political, and relational issue. Drawing on recent high profile youth suicides as reference points, we aim to illuminate some of the complex relational processes and sociopolitical conditions that may make some lives more ‘unlivable’ than others. We adopt a social constructionist perspective to argue that experiences of distress, understandings of self, and knowledge about suicide are not stable and objective entities awaiting discovery. Rather, they are brought into being through historically and culturally specific social practices, including language, discourse and relations of power. We then turn to more recently developed cultural frameworks and social justice orientations as a way of bringing the much neglected topics of culture and power into the scholarly conversation about youth suicide. We conclude by exploring some of the implications for practice and policy that might follow from these reformulations.
Observing Privilege: Examining Race, Class, and Gender in Health and Human Service Organizations
Authors: Collins Leslie , Barnes Sandra L.
Published: May 2020

Race, class, and gender dynamics can result in power differentials and discrimination in organizations. Such deleterious effects are particularly troubling for non-profit agencies with diverse employee and community bases and that endeavor to redress social inequality through service and program provision. Foucault (1975, 1980) as well as Andersen and Collins’s (2007) theories provide a means to conceptualize race, class, and gender as power processes that contribute to the production and maintenance of organizational privilege (unearned benefits and advantages). This study uses bivariate and multivariate analyses and data from five health and human service organizations to assess employee perceptions about dynamics that foster organizational privilege. Modeling results indicate that although organizational position is the most influential indicator in explaining perceptions about participation in decision-making, race is the most important predictor of perceptions about access to learning resources and influential relationships. These results also suggest that formally educated White employees are best positioned to access privilege. Thus, such organizations may be fostering social injustices with detrimental effects for employee culture and the communities they serve.
A Psychometric Review of Instruments for Social Justice and Advocacy Attitudes
Authors: Fietzer Alexander W. , Ponterotto Joseph
Published: May 2020

The authors review instruments measuring social justice and advocacy. A review of the literature revealed four scales that met inclusion criteria. The Activism Orientation Scale (AOS), Social Issues Advocacy Scale (SIAS), Social Issues Questionnaire (SIQ), and the Social Justice Scale (SJS) are evaluated in terms of item development, psychometric properties, and practical utility. Each instrument was evaluated on item development, reliability (internal consistency, test-retest reliability), and evidence for validity (in terms of content, internal structure, and relationship with other variables). In general, all of the instruments lacked adequate levels of psychometric evidence in test-retest reliability, validation on more diverse samples, and use of more robust confirmatory methods (e.g., confirmatory factor analysis). Recommendations and future directions for research are discussed.
Luis Valdez’in Seçilmiş Oyunlarında Chicano Kültürü Yansımaları
Authors: Saylan Özlem
Published: May 2020

Luis Valdez, tarım işçilerinden oluşturduğu tiyatrosunun temellerini Chicano kültürünü referans alan üç sacayağı üzerine kurmuştur: daha çok politik içerik taşıyan doğaçlama kısa oyun anlamına gelen actos, Maya ve Aztek mitoloji ve efsanelerini yansıtan mitos ve de oyuna müzik, şarkı ve dans yorumu getiren corridos. Bir Chicano kimliği yaratıp, Chicanoların öz kültürleri ile bugünkü yaşamlarını içselleştirebilmeleri Valdez’in oyunlarında yer alan temaların en çok öne çıkanlarından birisidir. Bu makalede, Valdez’in, Zoot Suit, Bandido! ve I Don’t Have to Show You No Stinking Badges! isimli seçilmiş üç oyunu ele alınmıştır. Bu oyunların incelenme nedeni, her birinin bir yandan toplumdaki Chicano önyargısını hicvederken, diğer yandan oluşturulmaya çalışılan Chicano kimliğinin şekillenmesine yardımcı olmasıdır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda Valdez’in neredeyse tüm oyunlarında, en az ana karakter kadar sahnede varlığına işaret edilen Chicano olmak “düşünce”sinin, “eylem”e dönüşümündeki süreç irdelenmektedir. Hâlihazırda var olan Chicano kimliğinin ve Chicano topluluğunun varlığını reddeden kesime tanıtılması halinde “varlık,” bir olgu olmaktan çıkıp bir eyleme yani “olay”a dönüşür. Bu bağlamda, tiyatro okuruna/izleyicisine, Chicano Tiyatrosu’nun Amerikan Tiyatrosundaki yerini özellikle sosyokültürel ve politik mesajlarla göstermeye çalışıldığı gözlemlenmektedir.
ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH
Reflections of Chicano Culture in Selected Plays of Luis Valdez
Luis Valdez established his theater consisting of farm workers on a trivet, taking Chicano culture as a reference: actos improvised short play with more political content, mitos reflecting Maya and Aztec mythology and legends, and corridos bringing music, song, and dance interpretation in play. Creating a Chicano identity and internalizing their mother culture and present lives is one of the outstanding themes in Valdez’s plays. This paper discusses three of Valdes’s selected plays, Zoot Suit, Bandido!, and I Don’t Have To Show You No Stinking Badges!. The reason why these plays are analyzed is that each of them helps to shape the Chicano identity, while satirizing the Chicano bias in society. For this purpose, in almost all of Valdez’s plays, the process of transforming the “idea” of being Chicano, which is indicated at least as much as the protagonist’s presence on the stage, into “action” of becoming Chicano is scrutinized. In the case of introducing the already-existing Chicano identity and community to those who deny its existence, “being” turns from being a phenomenon into an “action”. In this regard, it is observed that it is tried to exhibit Chicano Theater’s place in the American Theater especially with sociocultural and political messages.
Spill-over from aquaculture may provide a larval subsidy for the restoration of mussel reefs
Authors: Norrie C , Dunphy B , Roughan M , Weppe S , Lundquist C
Published: May 2020

Worldwide bivalve aquaculture is expanding rapidly. Simultaneously, there has been a loss of natural bivalve reefs due to anthropogenic activities. As bivalve reefs support several ecosystem functions disproportionate to the area they cover, there is interest in their restoration. The Firth of Thames (FoT) in northern New Zealand once supported dense populations of green lipped musselsPerna canaliculus, which were extirpated by a dredge fishery in the mid-20thcentury. Efforts to restore these biogenic habitats are underway. The largest standing populations of this species in the area currently exist in aquaculture. This study aimed to determine if larval spill-over from aquaculture can provide a larval subsidy to bivalve reef restoration efforts in the FoT. We used a combination of trace elemental fingerprinting and biophysical modelling techniques to determine patterns of larval dispersal in the area. Results of both approaches indicated that the larval pool in the area is well mixed with larvae produced at aquaculture locations capable of settling throughout the study area. Overall this shows, for the first time, that larval spill-over from aquaculture may provide a subsidy to restoration efforts and assist with establishing sustainable populations. When determining restoration locations, the potential for aquaculture populations to act as a larval source should be explicitly considered. Conversely, when considering the location of new aquaculture sites, the consequences of larval spill-over to surrounding wild populations should be assessed. We recommend that restoration efforts and aquaculture be carefully integrated in a network approach which could provide both ecological and economic benefits.

MicroRNAs are emerging as important regulators of cardiac function. This study investigated the role of microRNA-24 (miR-24) in ischemic cardiomyocytes, based on the observation that miR-24 expression was significantly enhanced in the ischemic myocardium of rats. Using primary cultured rat cardiomyocytes, cell injury was induced by ischemic conditions, and the cells were evaluated for changes in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, cell viability, apoptosis and necrosis. The results showed that miR-24 was increased in myocytes exposed to ischemia. When miR-24 was further overexpressed in ischemic myocytes using the mimic RNA sequence, LDH release was reduced, cell viability was enhanced, and apoptosis and necrosis rates were both decreased. By contrast, a deficiency in miR-24 resulted in the largest LDH release, lowest cell viability and highest apoptosis and necrosis rates in normal and ischemic myocytes, with significant changes compared to that of non-transfected myocytes. Additionally, the mRNA and protein levels of the pro-apoptotic gene, BCL2L11, were down-regulated by miR-24 overexpression and up-regulated by miR-24 deficiency. The luciferase reporter assay confirmed BCL2L11 to be a target of miR-24. Overall, this study showed a protective role for miR-24 against myocardial ischemia by inhibiting BCL2L11, and may represent a potential novel treatment for ischemic heart disease.

Cardiovascular disease, while rare in women of reproductive age, is the main cause of mortality in menopause. The purpose of our study was to determine the association of natural menopause with cardiovascular risk factors, including their clustering into metabolic syndrome (MS). A random 5 % representative population sample of women aged 45-54 years was examined. In 575 women, we were able to determine their natural reproductive aging status. Multiple regression analysis was used to calculate the association between age, menopausal status, and risk factors under study. After adjustment for age, there was an increase in the odds ratio of developing MS, as defined by NCEP (OR=2.0; 95 % CI [1.1; 3.7]), and an increase in plasma lipid ratios (total cholesterol/HDL-C, LDL-C/HDL-C, apolipoprotein-B/apolipoprotein-A1; p<0.05 for all) in postmenopausal women. Age, but not menopausal status, was associated with some single components of MS; only waist circumference significantly increased after menopause, independently of age. Clustering of risk factors in MS and lipid ratios (combined factors) was strongly associated with menopause whereas worsening of single components of MS was strongly associated with age. In conclusion, based on our results, the menopause may pose a risk to women through clustering of cardiovascular risk factors beyond simple aging.
Comparison of Male and Female Rats in Avoidance of a Moving Object: More Thigmotaxis, Hypolocomotion and Fear-Like Reactions in Females

Although male rats generally outperform females in many spatial tasks, sometimes gender differences are not present. This preliminary study examined gender effects in the Enemy avoidance task, in which a rat on a stable circular arena avoids approaching a small mobile robot while collecting randomly dispersed small pellets. Whenever distance between robot and the rat dropped below 25 cm, animal was punished by a mild footshock. Female rats showed thigmotaxis, hypolocomotion and avoidance of robot in the habituation phase, when approaches were not punished. No statistically significant differences in avoidance learning under reinforcement training sessions were observed; but females still spent significantly more time at periphery of the arena and foraged less than males. We conclude that females were able to perform at the same level as males under reinforcement despite different behavioral strategy. The thigmotaxic behavior appears to function as innate escape strategy in female rats triggered by the stressing effect of the moving robot rather then the presence of shocks.

Air merupakan kebutuhan fital dalam kehidupan yang perlu dijaga dan dilestarikan keberadaannya agar terus berlanjut. Termasuk Mata Air Syakuro di Desa Sentul, Kecamatan Gringsing, Kabupaten Batang yang hanya mengandalkan keberadaan pohon Sepreh yang ada di atasnya, namun lingkungan sekitar kurang terjaga. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perilaku warga dalam menjaga dan memanfaatkan Mata Air Syakuro. Penelitian dilakukan dengan observasi, wawancara, dokumentasi dan survai di lapangan terhadap perilaku warga dalam memelihara dan memanfaatkan sumber mata air Syakuro untuk mendapatkan data penelitian. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perilaku masyarakat dalam melestarikan dan menjaga keberlanjutan Mata Air Syakuro masih rendah karena masyarakat hanya mengandalkan air yang keluar dari pohon Sepreh sebagai pohon dan sumber mata air keramat. Penanaman pohon hanya dilakukan oleh warga yang memiliki tanah di sekitar sumber air. Untuk menghormati warisan leluhur sebagai kearifan lokal  Mata Air Syakuro, setiap malam Jumat Kliwon bulan Assyuro warga melakukan selamatan di Mata Air Syakuro tersebut dengan dihadiri tokoh agama dan warga sekitar.  Warga yang mandi dan mencuci di sumber air Syakuro juga masih membuang sampahnya sembarangan di selokan. Namun jalan dan penerangan di Sumber Air Syakuro sudah baik, warga yang menggunakan atau mengambil air dari Syakuro tidak dipungut biaya.

Penataan Kawasan Cagar Budaya Berbasis Partisipasi Melalui Mekanisme Pemberian Subsidi Studi Kasus Kawasan Kota Lama Sawahlunto, Sumatera Barat
Authors: Budi Kurniawan
Published: May 2020

Penataan kawasan cagar budaya berbasis partisipasi masyarakat melalui mekanisme pemberian insentif (subsidi) telah dilakukan di Kawasan Kota Lama Sawahlunto (2007-2012). Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menilai efektifitas pemberian subsidi dan bentuk serta pengaruh partisipasi masyarakat terhadap efektifitas program. Pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif dilakukan untuk menggambarkan tahapan program serta mengidentifikasi berbagai permasalahan dan fenomena yang terjadi didalamnya. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa  adanya ketidaksesuaian (mismatch) antara tujuan program dengan apa yang dibutuhkan masyarakat. Tingkat partisipasi masyarakat yang cukup tinggi lebih didasari oleh motivasi mendapatkan subsidi dan adanya unsur keterpaksaan (coercive). Dan pada pelaksanaannya terjadi bentuk penyimpangan partisipasi akibat rendahnya komitmen masyarakat dan lemahnya manajemen kegiatan. Pasca program, ditemukan kecenderungan permukiman untuk berubah kembali pada kondisi pra-program. Sehingga dapat disimpulkan program belum efektif dalam konteks upaya pelestarian cagar budaya, selama masih ada resistensi akibat belum terakomodasinya kebutuhan sesungguhnya dari masyarakat
The Role of Women in Pursuing Scottish Criminal Actions, 1580–1650
Authors: Dropuljic Stephanie
Published: May 2020

This article examines the role of women in raising criminal actions of homicide before the central criminal court, in early modern Scotland. In doing so, it highlights the two main forms of standing women held; pursing an action for homicide alone and as part of a wider group of kin and family. The evidence presented therein challenges our current understanding of the role of women in the pursuit of crime and contributes to an under-researched area of Scots criminal legal history, gender and the law.
Individual development in a neoliberal context: Climbing to a ‘glass ceiling’? A plea for liberal pedagogy in upper secondary vocational education
Authors: Van Houten Maarten
Published: May 2020

This essay addresses the issue that a neoliberal focus might have an adverse effect on a secondary vocational education student’s personal development and opportunities in higher education. Originating from neoliberal conditions, in upper secondary vocational education there is a strong focus on marketable skills with limited space for acquiring critical thinking and analytical skills, resulting in impediments concerning admittance to higher education as well as low success rates of those admitted. Also, talent development and differentiation are contested under these neoliberal conditions. It is argued that liberal pedagogy is necessary as a means to scaffold especially critical thinking skills and to foster talent development in upper secondary vocational education to cope with this issue and to create more equal opportunities for vocational students from various levels. In the concluding thoughts those involved are encouraged to reconsider preparation for post-secondary education related to admittance and study success.
