The involvement of women in politics has always been a topic of discussion, especially during general elections. Women's involvement in politics from time to time should increase, one of which is the increase in women's representation in the legislature. However, women's representation in the Regional People's Legislative Council of Palu City has not met the 30% quota. The provisions in Law Number 7 of 2017 very clearly state that there is an obligation regarding the quota for women's representation that must be met in terms of participating in the general election process, namely 30%, but the implementation has not been optimal. Fulfillment in parliamentary seats has not yet reached the 30% mark. As it should be And in the provisions of Fiqh Siyasa, women's representation in politics is fine, because the arena of women's representation is also in accordance with the principles of fiqh siyasa, namely sovereignty, justice, deliberation and consensus, equality, rights and obligations, and Amar ma 'ruf nahi munkar. So it is okay if there are women who are used as leaders or representatives of the people, especially in politics. Influential political parties are very important in increasing women's representation in politics, so parties must pay attention to this. And in terms of making laws and regulations, the government should still be guided by existing regulations. It must also consider the impact that will be caused by the existence of these laws and regulations.

Keterlibatan perempuan dalam politik selalu menjadi pembicaraan terutama pada masa dilaksanakan pemilihan umum. Keterlibatan perempuan dalam politik dari waktu ke waktu seharusnya mengalami peningkatan, salah satu ialah peningkatan keterwakilan perempuan di legislatif. Namun keterwakilan perempuan pada Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah Kota Palu belum memenuhi kuota 30%. Ketentuan pada Undang-Undang Nomor 7 Tahun 2017 sudah sangat jelas menyebutkan mengenai adanya kewajiban tentang kuota keterwakilan perempuan yang harus dipenuhi dalam hal akan mengikuti proses pemilihan umum yakni 30%, namun namun dalam pelaksanaan belum maksimal. Pemenuhan di kursi parlemen belum mencapai angka 30%. Sebagaimana mestinya Dan di dalam ketentuan Fiqh Siyasah, keterwakilan perempuan dalam politik sah-sah saja, karena arena keterwakilan perempuan pun sudah sesuai dengan prinsip-prinsip fiqh siyasah, yakni kedaulan, keadilan, musyawarah dan ijma, persamaan, hak dan kewajiban, dan  Amar ma’ruf nahi munkar. Jadi sah-sah saja apabila terdapat perempuan yang dijadikan sebagai pemimpin ataupun wakil rakyat khususnya dalam politik. Partai politik berpengaruh sangat penting dalam meningkatkan keterwakilan perempuan dalam politik sehingga partai harus memperhatikannya. Dan dalam hal pembuatan peraturan perUndang-Undangan sudah seharusnya pemerintah harus tetap berpedoman dengan peraturan yang ada. Juga harus mempertimbangan dampak yang akan ditimbulkan dengan adanya peraturan perUndang-Undangan tersebut.

Published: January 2023

The main aim of the present study was to examine the effects of the age group (U-15, U-17 and U-19) on change of direction (COD) performance and its specific physical determinants among young basketball male players. Thirty-one young male basketball players (13–18 years) volunteered to participate in this study. The sample was divided into 3 age groups (U-15, U-17, U-19). All the evaluations were carried out in the same order in 3 sessions as follows: 1) body composition, self-reported sexual maturation, COD performance, and intermittent endurance capacity; 2) reactive strength index (RSI), 15-m sprint, and repeated sprint ability (RSA) test; 3) vertical and horizontal jumps and lower-limb strength. The results showed significant differences between groups for age, sexual maturation, endurance capacity, horizontal and vertical jump performances, RSI, COD, RSA, and lower-limb strength (p < 0.05). Significant correlations were identified between COD performances and some physical determinants such as jumping ability and RSA performance (-0.43 < r < 0.85; p ≤ 0.05). In conclusion, there are age effects on COD performance and its specific physical determinants among young basketball male players. The associations between COD performance and its determinants should be considered by practitioners when programing athletic talent development for this population.
Training to Improve Pro-Agility Performance: A Systematic Review
Authors: Forster James W. D. , Uthoff Aaron M. , Rumpf Michael C. , Cronin John B.
Published: January 2023

Effective directional change in sport is imperative to success in key game situations. Change of direction (COD) ability is underpinned by various athletic qualities which can be developed through specific and non-specific training methods. This review examined the effect of specific and non-specific training methods on pro-agility performance, by analysing the intervention type and resulting magnitude of training effects on pro-agility shuttle performance. A total of 20 studies were included for review. Data from 638 subjects and 29 intervention groups involving seven different training methods were extracted and analysed in relation to training method classification and primary outcome measures. Interventions involving sprint training, plyometric training, resistance training, and combined resistance, plyometric, and sprint training were found to produce statistically significant positive change on pro-agility performance per session (p < 0.05). Sprint training (0.108 ES), plyometric training (0.092 ES), resistance training (0.087 ES), and combined resistance, plyometric, and sprint training (0.078 ES) methods were found to have the highest per session training effect. While total time is the typical unit of measure for this test, different types of training may lead to preferential improvements in either acceleration, deceleration, or COD phases of the pro-agility shuttle. Specifically, resisted or inclined sprinting may develop the linear acceleration phases, unilateral resistance training may promote increased strength to overcome the imposed forces during the deceleration and COD phases, multiplanar plyometrics can help enhance stretch-shortening cycle capabilities across different force vectors, and a combination of two or more of these methods may enable simultaneous development of each of these qualities.

Authors: Nándori Eszter Siposné , Lipták Katalin
Published: January 2023

The study examines the evolution of poverty and social exclusion in post-socialist countries, in particular in Hungary. When examing the fight against poverty, the authors examine the role of social enterprises in poverty alleviation. A certain part of social enterprises is created to find solutions to social needs and critical social situations like increased and deep poverty or long-term unemployment. Their existence is justified by the fact that for many social problems, effective and long-term solutions cannot be provided by the governments, the market or public aid. We test whether there is any relationship between the extent of poverty and social exclusion and the spatial pattern of social enterprises established to alleviate poverty in Hungary, one of the post-socialist countries.

Conservation of Forest, Based on a Fuelwood Substitute as Well as Considering the Cultural and Spiritual Values: An Optimal Fuelwood Harvest Model
Authors: Banerjee Polash
Published: January 2023

Excessive fuelwood harvest is a major cause of deforestation in developing countries. To mitigate this, various preventive measures have been introduced in different countries. The availability of affordable substitutes to the community dependent on the forest for domestic energy consumption may prevent further forest degradation. A stock-dependent optimal control model of fuelwood harvest from a natural forest is presented here and comparative statics has been used to show that the presence of a fuelwood substitute will reduce its harvest and increase the forest stock. The model indicates that the availability of cheaper and high-energy content alternatives for fuelwood can substantially reduce fuelwood extraction from a forest. Also, a lower discount rate and higher cultural and spiritual values (CSV) will keep the optimal forest stock close to its carrying capacity and reduce fuelwood harvest. The model reveals that the maximum sustainable yield of forest stock and the ratio of energy content per unit mass of fuel plays a central role in the fate of forest stock and the level of fuelwood harvest. An empirical example of the Southeast Asian Forest growth model along with Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) as a substitute has been used to illustrate the results. The outcomes of this study can be incorporated into forest conservation policies.
Territorial Inequalities in Vegetable Plant Payments in Hungary
Authors: Lipcsei József
Published: January 2023

The European Union‘s Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) provides EU countries with significant resources. Land-based payments are a major part of farmers‘ income. By linking subsidies, the amount of funds received per hectare by subsidy claimants can be increased. The majority of subsidies do not impose any production obligations but simply require compliance with landscape conservation and environmental protection measures. The high level of subsidies is exacerbated by the weak euro-forint exchange rate, which has degraded some parts of agriculture into an investment. Continued concentration of land holdings has led to a significant share of subsidies going to farms which further increase land concentration and thus negative rural trends. The support for vegetable plants belongs to the category of coupled support, even though there is no obligation to produce. In the analysis of support, it is of particular importance to look at individuals and non-individuals separately, as well as the size of holdings. In my analysis, I further disaggregate the currently used categories of holdings and analyse them separately by claimant.

This study showed that the poverty alleviation efforts carried out by the North Aceh government are still partial and centralized. The cultural aspect, such as the community's local wisdom in accordance with Islamic values, is still not given enough attention. The realization of activities carried out so far are still focused on national programs from the central government, and efforts to collaborate and connect with local cultural aspects have not been made. Whereas local wisdom can be a part of a poverty alleviation mechanism because it has become a social norm and a valued asset in Acehnese society.AbstrakAngka kemiskinan di Kabupaten Aceh Utara masih cukup tinggi, berbanding terbalik dengan kejayaan industri migas di masa lalu, sehingga sempat mendapat julukan “daerah petrodolar”. Pemerintah telah berusaha mengatasi lonjakan angka kemiskinan, namun angka kemiskinan tetap saja meningkat. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan kearifan lokal sebagai salah satu aspek yang dapat dijadikan sebagai bagian dari strategi pengentasan kemiskinan di Aceh Utara. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif. Sumber data diperoleh dari wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi, kemudian dianalisis secara interaktif. Kajian ini menunjukkan bahwa upaya pengentasan kemiskinan yang dilakukan pemerintah Aceh Utara masih bersifat parsial dan terpusat. Aspek budaya seperti kearifan lokal masyarakat yang sesuai dengan nilai-nilai Islam masih kurang diperhatikan. Realisasi kegiatan yang dilakukan selama ini masih terfokus pada program nasional dari pemerintah pusat, dan belum dilakukan upaya untuk berkolaborasi dan terkoneksi dengan aspek budaya lokal. Padahal kearifan lokal dapat menjadi bagian dari mekanisme pengentasan kemiskinan karena telah menjadi norma sosial dan aset berharga dalam masyarakat Aceh.

The EU-China road to the Comprehensive Agreement on Investment
Authors: POPA TACHE Cristina Elena
Published: January 2023

For about ten years, both the European Union and China have decided to embark
on a "not easy" road to reach an investment agreement. So, two different cultures, two
international powers, set out to regulate the main aspects of the investment mechanism
between them. The road to this agreement is perhaps the most difficult in the recent history
of the field, largely because of the narrow loopholes through which the negotiating parties
must pass. The only good path for the parties on this road is the public international law
governing the treaties, while foreign policies should retain their position as auxiliaries with
a limited role. This article aims to analyse the legal aspects of the procedure required by
such a treaty, taking into account its particularities. The method used for the elaboration of
this study is specific to differentiated comparison and introspection.
Considerations on the protection of teleworkers, in light of the current
European regulations. Elements of comparative law
Authors: MARICA Mihaela
Published: January 2023

The proliferation of the teleworking phenomenon entails a number of aspects, such
as the organization of working time or the work safety and health of teleworkers, which are
not fully covered by the current legislation. This puts teleworkers at an increased risk of
being treated less favorably than regular workers and implicitly calls for additional
protective measures for teleworkers. Consequently, the present paper offers an overview of
the main legislative documents adopted by the European Union, which concern teleworkers
directly or indirectly, in order to ascertain the extent to which the current legislative
standards meet the specific needs of the teleworkers. Also relevant for this aim is the
comparative law analysis which demonstrates how some states of the European Union have
increased their efforts to amend their legal systems, in order to eliminate the discriminatory
practices detrimental to teleworkers and to enhance the protection they enjoy. The study
presents the different legislative perspectives of Germany, France, Spain, Italy.
Difficult cases of using the indefinite pronouns and adverbs with affixes -nibud, -libo, -to, koe- with indefinite meaning among the Iranian audience
Authors: Estiri M.
Published: January 2023

This article is dedicated to examining the difficult cases of the transmission of the indefinite meaning with the indefinite pronouns and adverbs with the affixes -nibud, -libo, -to, koe- among Iranian audiences. The indefinite pronouns and adverbs are a group of words with a specific meaning and usage that express the category of indefiniteness. This topic is important because among the Iranian students learning Russian the use of indefinite pronouns and adverbs with these affixes is a most difficult problem. It is not due to the grammatical features of the pronouns and adverbs mentioned, but due to their dependence on semantic subtleties and the insufficient number of theoretical works analysing the errors made by foreign, including Iranian, students when using the indefinite pronouns and adverbs with the mentioned affixes. The first problem that Iranian students face is the use of the indefinite pronouns and adverbs in the Russian language when in Persian their formal indicator is the indefinite article. The purpose of this article is to study the complicated cases of using the indefinite pronouns and adverbs with affixes -nibud, -libo, -to, koe- with indefinite meaning in the Iranian class and to consider how this group of the indefinite pronouns and adverbs is used in speech and text. The novelty of this article is in the fact that for the first time in the Russian studies of Iran, the difficult cases that Iranian students often encounter when using the indefinite pronouns and adverbs with affixes -nibud, -libo, -to, koe-, are analyzed and specified. In addition, principles have been developed to optimize the teaching process of this category of pronouns and adverbs among Iranian students. The results of the article can be used to eliminate the mistakes of Iranian students of Russian when using the indefinite pronouns and adverbs with the affixes -nibud, -libo, -to, koe- with the indefinite meaning, as well as to improve teaching Russian as a foreign language in the Iranian audience.
Speech Genres of the Social Network Instagram in the Spanish Segment
Authors: Syschikova E. S. , Savchuk E. A.
Published: January 2023

The purpose of this particular article is to analyse the main features of the Spanish speech genres of the Instagram’s content being a social network and an application used to share photos and videos. Nowadays the topic is completely up to date because in Spanish-speaking countries there are a huge number of Instagram followers, which often is significantly greater than the number of users of any other social platform. Instagram is a special type of digital communication that has defined speech genres. The Instagram discourse is a hypertext − a structure that includes links to other texts. The underlying Instagram genre is a post that contains a photo or a video with a short text message. The post, in turn, can be presented by various sub-genres depending on the communicative purpose of the author: self-presentation, news, gratitude, congratulations, advice, request, invitation, appeal, obituary, advertisement, and joke. Stories are a separate Instagram genre with special purposes and functions. They are audiovisual content that has a limited lifespan, unlike a regular post. The article highlights such features of Instagram speech genres as interactivity, the polycode nature of messages (communication takes place in different levels − verbal and visual), the usage of hashtags and the availability of comments. Digital comment itself is a speech genre; it is characterized by informality, brevity and emotionality typical of oral communication. The conducted study allows us to conclude that the boundaries of Instagram speech genres are blurred. At the same time genres are closely connected, they often mix, they change due to the constant updating of the digital platform itself. The source of the illustrative material of this article was the content of the profiles of Spanish-speaking Instagram users, both private individuals and organizations.
The function of the article in the modes of substantive nomination in Portuguese
Authors: Butko V. A. , Ivanov N. V.
Published: January 2023

This paper presents a functional analysis of the grammar of the article in Portuguese. The article is seen as a morphological category that serves to differentiate the modes of substantive nomination in speech. A special status of the article in Portuguese, compared with the other grammatical categories, is underscored. Unlike other categories, that are mainly illustrative, serving to describe the object, the article characterizes the subjective mode of reference of the sign to the object. The function of the article has three aspects: true side (referential basis), pragmatic (communicational stress) and stylistic (cultural value). Several linguistic approaches to the article, covering these three functional aspects, are examined. Three modes of substantive nomination are pointed out: definite article nomination, indefinite article nomination and without article nomination (d/a-nomination, i/a-nomination, w/a-nomination). The functional meanings of the three nominative modes are correlated with all functional semantic aspects: referential, pragmatic and stylistic. The difference between the grammar of the article in substantive word-combinations and the grammar of the article in predicative constructions is outlined. On the one hand, it is an attributive and complementive grammar of the article within a substantive phrase. On the other hand, the article marks the function of a syntactic actant in the sentence. At this level, the article obtains the capacity to be an instrument to stress the rhema accent in linear structure of the utterance. At this level too, the article reveals its stylistic function. The paper presents a number of examples that show the use or omission of the article in the sentence according to its function. A brief summary presents the parameters of interpretation and differentiation of various types of substantive nominations in Portuguese with regard to the function of the article: reference, indication, quality, rhema-stressing, context newness. The paper may be of interest to the linguists specializing in the sphere of grammar of Portuguese and other Romance or German languages.
