The freedom to conduct a business as a driver for AI governance
Authors: Neves Inês
Published: July 2024

Artificial Intelligence (‘AI’) is associated with several risks that need to be contained and mitigated through an appropriate AI governance framework. However, it is also crucial to take into account the opportunities and societal benefits of AI and to consider and respect businesses as key actors in the context of AI. The freedom to conduct a business is a fundamental right enshrined in Article 16 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. It cannot be considered a diminished or functionalised right, nor are companies necessarily a threat to human rights or an obstacle to the pursuit of human-centred governance of AI. As in any scenario of conflict or collision between fundamental rights and interests, a fair balance must be struck between the subjective positions of different stakeholders. Ensuring respect for the freedom to conduct a business safeguards innovation and the flourishing of new opportunities that ultimately benefit citizens and the public interest. In the European Union legal system, AI governance will be shaped by both the ‘Artificial Intelligence Act’ and novel rules to address liability issues related to AI systems. While its prima facie content is affected by several provisions and obligations, in particular, for providers of high-risk AI systems, the EU legislator does not neglect the freedom to conduct a business. It seeks to provide legal certainty, ensure proportionality and address the special condition of small and medium-sized enterprises and start-ups. However, the rigidity of some provisions and the approach to risk, together with the uncertainty that characterises the normative environment of the AI, leave room for improvement and for further escape valves, with the future application being of particular importance.
ABDUL KAHAR MUZAKKIR: SEBUAH BIOGRAFI INTELEKTUAL (1930-AN–1970-AN)
Authors: Amini Mutiah
Published: July 2024

AbstrakTulisan ini mendiskusikan tentang biografi pemikiran Abdul Kahar Muzakkir, seorang tokoh penting dalam Sejarah Islam Indonesia, yang jarang hadir dalam historiografi Indonesia. Abdul Kahar Muzakkir merupakan salah seorang anggota Badan Penyelidik Usaha-usaha Persiapan Kemerdekaan Indonesia (BPUPKI), kemudian aktif dalam MIAI dan Masyumi. Abdul Kahar Muzakkir aktif dalam kegiatan politik sehingga pemerintah kolonial mencatat rekam jejaknya sejak ia berangkat ke Mesir untuk sekolah hingga kembali ke Indonesia. Sebuah pengawasan khusus pemerintah kolonial terhadap tokoh-tokoh berpengaruh. Sepulang dari Mesir, Abdul Kahar Muzakkir aktif pula berkegiatan politik. Akan tetapi, selesai menjadi anggota BPUPKI ia tidak lagi aktif dalam bidang politik. Ia lebih memilih jalan sosio-kultural dalam menyampaikan gagasan politisnya. Ia kemudian menjadi pendidik dengan pengangkatannya sebagai Kepala Sekolah Guru Muhammadiyah (kemudian menjadi Madrasah Mu’allimin) dan turut mendirikan Universiteit Islam Indonesia dan menjadi rektor pertamanya. Berdasarkan riset sejarah yang dilakukan dengan memanfaatkan karya-karya sezaman dan memori, disimpulkan bahwa perubahan pemikiran Abdul Kahar Muzakkir dari politik ke sosio-kultural merupakan jawaban atas ketidaksetujuannya dengan perkembangan politik Islam pada awal kemerdekaan, sekaligus menunjukkan konsistensi pemikirannya tentang Islam. Islam bukan sekadar sebuah ideologi, melainkan sebagai sebuah panduan dalam kehidupan keseharian.Kata kunci: Abdul Kahar Muzakkir, BPUPKI, dasar negara Indonesia, Masyumi, MIAI, dan Universiteit Islam Indonesia

This study employed a mixed-method approach to analyze the composition of mangrove forests. The transect method and remote sensing through supervised classification using Google Earth Engine (GEE) were utilized to assess changes in mangrove areas in 2017, 2019, and 2021. The findings suggest that this study should be included in population and environmental education courses. The results revealed that Avicennia marina mangroves had the highest importance index (INP) values at three different locations. Between 2017 and 2019, mangrove areas decreased from 30.62 hectares to 27.98 hectares. However, from 2019 to 2021, the mangrove area increased from 27.98 hectares to 29.18 hectares, largely due to reforestation efforts in the Pulau Dua Nature Reserve. The NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) values indicated "bushy" criteria, ranging from 0.43 to 1.00. The Normalized Difference Mangrove Index (NDMI) values fell into the "Rare" (-1.00 to 0.32) and "Medium" (0.33 to 0.43) categories. The Urgency, Seriousness, and Growth (USG) matrix analysis and Power Interest assessment identified illegal logging, erosion, and waste as significant causes of mangrove decline. Stakeholders, including village chiefs, religious leaders, traditional leaders, and youth leaders, must focus on preserving the mangrove ecosystem in the CAPD. The study's results are vital for educational purposes, particularly in population and environmental education courses. These courses should address environmental issues, prevention strategies, and conservation activities, which can be integrated into the curriculum. This will enable youth to contribute effectively to environmental awareness programs.
Determinants of household food insecurity in Tanzania: A Heckman approach
Authors: Msalilwa Salim , Wang Wei
Published: July 2024

Household food insecurity is a predominant issue in Tanzania, particularly affecting rural areas where poverty rates are higher. This problem can lead to poor nutritional quality and hinder mental, social, and economic development. The study utilized data from the 2017/18 Tanzania Household Budget Survey to analyse the determinants of food insecurity. Employing the Heckman approach to address the sample selection problem, the study found that household characteristics such as sex of the household head, location, education level, access to credit, household size, marital status, and income significantly reduce the problem of food insecurity among insecure groups. Male-headed, urban location, credit-accessible households and married heads were less food insecure compared to female-headed, rural location and households without access to credit, respectively. In addition, higher household income and education level, as well as smaller household size, positively impacted food expenditure among households. The findings suggest the need for improved credit services, formal education promotion, and targeted food programs, particularly in rural areas, to address household food insecurity effectively in Tanzania.

Published: July 2024

Background: Obesity has the potential to impact thyroid function through various pathways, even in individuals considered euthyroid. The relationship between thyroid function and body mass index (BMI) remains a subject of ongoing debate. Therefore, the primary objective of this study was to ascertain the correlation existing among thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), thyroid hormones, and BMI in patients experiencing thyroid dysfunction within the context of the Smart Health Tower. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Smart Health Tower in Sulaimani city from November 9, 2021, to March 1, 2022. One hundred and sixty-six patients with thyroid dysfunction (128 individuals had hypothyroidism, eight individuals had hyperthyroidism, and 30 individuals were the other type of thyroid dysfunction) were enrolled in this study. Their mean age was 43.62 ± 11.17 and 50.6% of the participation were male. Patients were divided into four groups based on BMI value: Underweight (BMI <18.5 kg/m2), normal (BMI: 18.5–24.9 kg/m2), overweight (BMI: 25–29.9 kg/m2), and obese (BMI ≥30 kg/m2). Results: The highest rate of age group was between (30 and 40) years old (84%) of them were male. The participants with higher BMI had higher TSH and this trend continued from underweight to Obese. The mean TSH of the underweight group was 0.47 ± 0.61 mIU/L, the normal weight group 1.5 ± 1.91 mIU/L, the overweight group 2.8± 3.87 mIU/L and the obese group 2.7 ± 2.37 mIU/L. Conclusion: A significant relationship between serum TSH and BMI and mean TSH increased as BMI increased. Further large-scale data from the population are required to confirm these findings.

There were significant differences between the average height (Z-score) of children based on the father's height, the mother's height, and the mother's education level (p<0,05). Breastfeeding, initial formula feeding, father's education level, and a large number of families were not associated with stunting (p> 0,05). Conclusion: This study observed that household food security was not the determinant of stunting. After controlling for potential confounders, the children's heights were independently associated with parental heights and maternal education.
A New Normal in the Past: Learn from Historical Events in Bagelen After the Java War (1825-1830)
Authors: Ittihadiyah Himayatul
Published: July 2024

The article analyzes the historical mental situation in Bagelen after the Javanese War, a situation similar to the 'new normal' era. This term was popular towards the end of the COVID-19 pandemic when everyone was forced to adapt to a situation created by a power relation context as the 'new normal' era. In the context of the post-Java War era, the contestants, both winners and losers, were both forced to adapt to the colonial socio-cultural and political forces of the 'cultuurstelsel' era as the 'new normal'. This study explains how both sides adapted to the new normal, following their respective historical and devotional duties. The victor sought to explain his moral responsibility by building political legitimacy and new hopes in the form of imaginings of an age of prosperity in Bagelen, while the loser sought to atone for defeat by building a new civilization outside Bagelen. As the winner, R.A.A. Cokronegoro wrote an autobiographical account of the Java War which became known as Babad Kedung Kebo as the political legitimacy capital to build the city of Purworejo. At the same time, as the loser Prince Diponegoro also wrote an autobiographical account of the Java War which became known as Babad Diponegoro. As for his followers, consisting of the Kyai and students, they went into a diaspora, leaving the Bagelen area to build the city of Purworejo.

Bridging the Gap: Deep Learning Techniques for American Sign Language Recognition
Authors: Vanshika  , Jain Ankur
Published: July 2024

Abstract: Communication stands upon the pillars of verbal and non-verbal conversations, and hence it holds the basis of human social relationships. Along with words, gestures are another component of nonverbal communication that achieves the purpose of conveying the intended sense and bridging the gab of the languages and cultures. People with speech or hearing problems usually read manual or verbal signs that often don't make sense to a hearing-challenged person. Gestures are the first sign of instruction that overcomes the speech gap. A kaleidoscopic patchwork of facial expressions comprising of facial movements and body language! Such variations occurring in linguistic areas overall are not surprising, as community cultures and tongues around the planet typically shape their language. In the United States and Canada, American Sign Language (ASL) is common and is an independent language from what is heard in the surrounding community but is also used as a way of communication between individuals and in groups that are deaf and hearing alike. There are some restrictions. Common language review and adequate practice are of crucial importance here, that is why it is so hard for deaf people to work outside. The accessibility of the translation tools decreases radically, which means it will be difficult to communicate, and it will further be hard to understand and to be understood. By integrating the AI technologies as neural networks and deep learning into the goals, the system will proceed to bridging various communication channels from manual writing to voice operation. The task goes with webcam installation together with gesture capture and then as an input it goes to the system. The proposed model will be divided into several stages namely, data acquisition, pre-training to the neural network, testing and the post-testing phases. This research project will do that through developing digital technology which in turn will enhance accessibility, encourage integration and let people who are film-blind or deaf to associate with the environment.
Patient-centered Care in Dentistry
Authors: Dinkel J. , Racek Ch. , Mirwald A. , Foltin V.
Published: July 2024

Patient-centered care (PCC) in dentistry is a holistic approach that considers not just the dental condition but also the patient’s individual preferences, needs, and values (Kristensen et al., 2023). It aims to ensure that patient values guide all clinical decisions, fostering a collaborative and respectful patient-dentist relationship. It tries to make sure patients’ values determine clinical decisions so that an interaction involving both the dentist and a patient-centered approach with respect will result. This interconnection in dentistry goes further because psychosocial factors, such as experiencing dental phobia and one’s economic class, affect oral health significantly. Dental phobia, which can create treatment avoidance, accentuates the necessity of comprehending and addressing such issues to provide effective and patient-centered care (Kristensen et al., 2023). Another issue is economics, which can hinder getting care, especially when dealing with a low-income group. Data shows that PCC is associated with a reduction in the use of health resources, better patient satisfaction, and better overall health. Additionally, PCC can aid professional healthcare workers when it comes to litigation cases, and it reduces work dissatisfaction, which is another indicator of its value. Integrating objective data into treatment strategies is essential for effectively implementing PCC in dentistry. Objective data, for instance, clinical parameters that can be quantified, serve as a research basis that completes the information patients can provide regarding their subjective experiences (DrKumo, 2023). Integration of the two of them provides a broader picture of the patient’s current oral health status and the potential available treatments. For example, tracking a patient’s hard data figures of probable oral wellness indicators like gingivitis and tooth damage alongside their subjective details, such as reported symptoms or concerns, can aid in recognizing patterns and customizing treatment plans to achieve better results by offering optimized services to the patients (DrKumo, 2023). However, despite the bright side of PCC, there are also some difficulties that persist; among them, one can highlight the absence of a uniform definition and detailed recommendations for its application in dentistry. Reasonable attempts are being made to tackle them by virtue of a theory-based PCC model created with the dental setting as its core area of application. However, additional research that would entail empirical testing of the model and its practicality is needed to realize the potential for developing patient-centered care in dentistry, indicating the rising importance of this model and its timely implementation in dentistry.

This research investigates the shooting incident involving Jayland Walker, an African American citizen, on June 27, 2022, resulting from a traffic violation in Akron, United States, and its subsequent coverage across major online media outlets such as CNN News, NBC News, and The Washington Post. Utilizing qualitative methods and drawing on Van Dijk's (1985) Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) model, the study focuses on analysing the ideologies embedded in ten online news stories from June 2022 to August 2022. The findings highlight a discernible trend in the representation of Jayland Walker by CNN News and The Washington Post, where he is predominantly portrayed as a victim, with the police depicted negatively through strategic use of lexical elements and metaphors, underscoring the influence of media ownership ideologies in shaping news content. In contrast, NBC News maintains a more neutral stance, attributed to frequent changes in ownership. The research contributes theoretically to CDA, providing a conceptual framework for students engaged in critical discourse analysis studies, and offers insights into the complexities of media representation in incidents involving discrimination and police violence.

Compatibility of Human Rights and Sharia: The Perspective of Interreligious Leaders in South and West Aceh Indonesia
Authors: Ikhwan M.
Published: July 2024

Human rights and Islamic law are two distinct sources of law with the common orientation of upholding the dignity of human beings. This study aimed to explore the compatibility of the two to avoid any conflicts and to ensure legal development that considers both human rights values and Islamic law, particularly in Aceh where Islamic law is implemented. The study began by asking two fundamental questions: how are human rights and Islamic law compatible in the context of legal development in Aceh? And how do interfaith figures in southwest Aceh view the compatibility of human rights and Islamic law? The study utilized qualitative research methods with a phenomenological approach and an interpretive paradigm, and it concluded with a continuous qualitative narrative analysis from the start of the research until its completion. The research findings indicate that human rights and Islamic law have been incorporated into the formulation of every law and can accommodate all segments of society in Aceh, both in terms of religion and humanity. Additionally, human rights and Sharia law in Aceh have found a point of convergence that is supported by the acceptance of cross-religious communities, particularly in southwestern Aceh. Thus, this research suggests that human rights and Sharia law are not in conflict with each other because they share the same orientation of respecting the dignity of humanity.

Authors: Al-Faryan Mamdouh Abdulaziz Saleh , Shil Nikhil Chandra
Published: July 2024

This paper aims to appraise the Saudi Stock Exchange (Tadawul) with reference to various indicators like performance, structure, market size, share price index, etc. This study is motivated from the reform initiatives the Saudi Stock Exchange passes through in recent years because of the implantation of the nationwide strategy, Vision 2030 (Kumar, 2023). Using a published dataset, this study undertakes an appraisal mindset to highlight the performance of the market over 35 years’ time (from 1985 to 2019). The analysis follows various descriptive statistics reflecting market trends over the periods across selected parameters. The findings of the study imply that the market is improving in every dimension supporting the reform initiatives (Alsuhaibani et al., 2023). The incremental contribution of the current study is to inform policymakers about the response of the market towards various policy interventions. However, the study warrants careful attention of market regulators to observe the gradual changes so that it may receive policy attention as necessary.
Celebrar a los emperadores mexicanos en Valladolid de Michoacán (1822)
Authors: Navarro Mendez Jose María
Published: July 2024

En mayo de 1822, las tropas dirigidas por el sargento Pío Marcha tomaron las calles de la ciudad de México, enalteciendo en todas las ventanas, puertas y balcones el nombre del emperador Agustín i. Su proclamación resonó por todos los rincones de la capital; así, la nación exaltó y celebró a su primer gobernante. En Michoacán, la tierra de los emperadores, las conmemoraciones fueron llevadas a cabo vivamente. De manera particular, en la capital, Valladolid de Michoacán, la fiesta la realizaron los dos cabildos: el civil y el eclesiástico. Bajo su mando, ambas corporaciones demostraron la lealtad a las nuevas figuras que se enarbolaban desde México. 
El presente escrito indaga sobre lo ocurrido tras la noticia de la elección del emperador mexicano y muestra cuál fue el apoyo manifestado a lo largo del reinado de Agustín i y Ana María de México en su ciudad natal, hoy Morelia.

Published: July 2024

El objetivo general de la investigación es analizar relatos de experiencias educativas creativas, concebidas en tiempos de COVID-19, por docentes de Profesorados de Educación Inicial del sur de la provincia de Córdoba. Los relatos recuperan las perspectivas de los actores y sus valoraciones subjetivas respecto de las prácticas que consideran creativas. La investigación se realizó con diez docentes, directivos y coordinadores de institutos de gestión estatal y privada, de cinco departamentos de Córdoba. Se utilizaron tres estrategias de recolección de datos: narrativas, entrevistas y análisis de documentos (planificaciones, producciones, registros, informes, etc.). Los análisis destacan diversas acciones creativas de los actores educativos, orientadas a dar continuidad a los procesos de enseñanza y a propiciar aprendizajes en tiempos de complejidades e incertidumbres. En 2023, es relevante resignificar prácticas creativas desarrolladas en pandemia.
