The Prayer-Book Roots of Griffith Jones's Evangelism*
Authors: Harding John
Published: June 2020

This article discusses Griffith Jones (1683–1761) an influential Church of England rector in West Wales from 1711, who is usually described as a precursor of Welsh Methodism and Evangelicalism. It refers to an undated, damaged notebook, in the National Library of Wales, containing
sermon notes in Jones's own hand. The article seeks to trace the source of his evangelistic outlook, noting his conformist loyalty to the Church of England's doctrine, order and worship. Contrary to the opinion which attributes his pursuit of evangelism, with its seeking of conversions, to
supposed Puritan influences, the article shows that the Book of Common Prayer was its inspiration. Preaching is discussed as the predominant component of worship. Jones's thought as a popular evangelist is examined, with reference to the brief sermon outlines in Welsh. The article discusses
Jones's view of the defiance of Christian standards and ignorance of the faith, in Wales. Jones's practice was to summon people to faith. He preached this to those within the 'visible' national Church, which included infants, adding a strong demand for moral conformity. His concept of 'membership'
was not postEnlightenment voluntarism, but of a statutory and biblical duty. For Griffith Jones the liturgy was not a disincentive to piety, contrary to some Dissenters' misgivings. His wish was for spiritual and moral renewal, not further reformation of Anglican doctrine or practice. He saw
catechizing as a means against schismatical vagaries. His famous Circulating Schools reinforced this policy.

Published: June 2020

Introduction: This article is the result of research entitled the behavior of employability indicators in university graduates, developed at the Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas in 2019.
Problem: The Emple-AP project promotes the creation of an observatory for labor insertion and the strengthening of employability in countries of the Pacific Alliance (PA), which particularly benefits Colombia, because one of its objectives with the PA is to overcome the socioeconomic inequality that exists among its inhabitants.
Objective: To identify the relationship between employability indicators through classification methods used in Artificial Intelligence.
Methodology:The indicators’ behavior description involves data pre-processing, a formal global study in statistics and a specific formal study through comparison of classification methods.
Results: Descriptions of these employability indicators show characteristics of the situation in the studied population.
Conclusion:Given the analysis of the classification model, it is determined that the diversity and disparity of the dataset makes the RandomTree model the most accurate in this research, finding that the system has characteristic behaviors of an adaptative complex system.
Originality:Through this research, employability indicators were analyzed through data mining tools, additionally the analysis presented in this article could be replicated under particular conditions in other countries of the PA.
Limitations:The information comes from the Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas graduate’s office. A single source generates a limitation in the data and in the population studied.

Published: June 2020

Introducción: el uso de probióticos es una práctica orientada a mejorar el desempeño productivo y la salud de los animales. El objetivo del estudio fue conocer el efecto del consumo de leche fermentada con Bifidobacterium y Lactobacillus casei sobre el desarrollo de cabritos durante la lactancia artificial en términos de ganancia diaria de peso, comparado con el consumo de leche fresca.

Metodología: treinta y ocho cabritos se asignaron al azar en dos grupos experimentales: alimentados con leche fresca (LFr, n=20) o leche fermentada (LFe, n=18) obtenida con un cultivo de Bifidobacterium y L. casei. El destete se realizó con 56 días de edad y se estableció el día en el cual triplicaron su peso al nacimiento. Se determinó el consumo diario de leche, la ganancia diaria de peso (GDP), el número de días requerido para triplicar el peso al nacimiento y la incidencia de diarreas y su duración.

Resultados: el consumo diario (1668±73 vs 1603±67, mL), la GDP (190±7 vs 194±6, g), el tiempo para triplicar el peso al nacimiento y la incidencia de diarreas (55 vs 60 %) no fueron diferente entre grupos (p>0,05, LFe y LFr respectivamente).  La duración de las diarreas en el grupo LFr tuvo una duración mayor a 4 días en el 91 % de los casos, y de 50 % en el grupo LFe (p=0,06).

Conclusiones: bajo las condiciones del estudio, el consumo de leche fermentada con Bifidobacterium y Lactobacillus casei no influyó de manera significativa sobre el desarrollo corporal de cabritos durante la lactancia artificial, sin embargo, las diarreas fueron de menor duración.

Authors: Islet Distribution Program Integrated
Published: June 2020

The goal of the Integrated Islet Distribution Program (IIDP) is to develop a uniform standardized shipping method among all the subcontracted IIDP centers that will result in minimal loss of quality or quantity of shipped islets (as compared to control islets remaining at the IIDP center). The objective of this Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is to be a model for site-specific SOPs that define the method for quantitative determination of insulin released after glucose stimulation for proving the potency of the human islet preparation shipped by the IIDP. GSIR Overview: After overnight culture at 37°C (12 – 24 hrs), human islets are incubated with media containing a relatively low concentration of glucose (2.8 mM) and a sample of the supernatant is taken. Then the same islets are incubated with media containing a higher glucose concentration (28 mM) and a sample of the supernatant is taken. The amount of insulin present in both the supernatant samples is measured using a commercially available Human Insulin ELISA kit. The stimulation index is calculated by dividing insulin concentration of the supernatant from the 28 mM glucose incubation by the insulin concentration of the supernatant from the 2.8 mM glucose incubation.

Untuk itu dilakukan penelitian yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh kombinasi pucuk tebu dan titonia fermentasi terhadap kecernaan fraksi serat (NDF, ADF, selulosa dan hemiselulosa) secara in-vitro. Penelitian ini menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) dengan 4 perlakuan yaitu A (100% Pucuk Tebu Fermentasi + 0% Titonia Fermentasi), B (75% Pucuk Tebu Fermentasi + 25% Titonia Fermentasi), C (50% Pucuk Tebu Fermentasi + 50% Titonia Fermentasi), dan D (25% Pucuk Tebu Fermentasi + 75% Titonia Fermentasi) dengan 5 ulangan. Pengaruh perlakuan terhadap parameter yang diuji dianalisis menggunakan sidik ragam dan dilanjutkan dengan uji jarak berganda Duncan jika ada perbedaan antar perlakuan. Hasil sidik ragam menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan memberikan pengaruh yang berbeda sangat nyata (P0,01) terhadap kecernaan fraksi serat (NDF, ADF, selulosa dan hemiselulosa). Dari hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa perlakuan C (50% Pucuk Tebu Fermentasi + 50% titonia Fermentasi) memberikan hasil yang terbaik terhadap kecernaan NDF (78,13%), ADF (76,76%), selulosa (80,81%) dan hemiselulosa (81,11 %).  (In-vitro digestibility of fiber fractions combination of sugarcane tops and tithonia as ruminant feed) ABSTRACT. Sugarcane tops and tithonia are alternative forages that can be used as an energy source and protein source in ruminants, but are constrained by the presence of lignin and anti nutrients. For this reason, a study was conducted to determine the effect of a combination of fermented sugarcane tops and fermented tithonia on the digestion of the fiber fraction(NDF, ADF, cellulose, and hemicellulose).The research design used a randomized block design (RBD) with 4 treatments, namely A (100% fermented sugarcane tops and 0% fermented tithonia), B (75% fermented sugarcane tops and 25% fermented tithonia), C (50% fermented sugarcane tops and 50% fermented tithonia), D (25% fermented sugarcane tops and 75% fermented tithonia) with 5 replications. Effect of treatment on parameters tested using analysis of variance and continued with Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT) if there are differences between treatments. The results of experiments showed that treatments gave a very significant difference (P 0.01) to the in-vitro digestibility of fiber fraction (NDF, ADF, cellulose, and hemicellulose). From the results of the study, it can be concluded that the treatment C (50% sugarcane tops fermentation and 50% fermented tithonia) gives the best results on the in-vitro digestibility of fiber fraction NDF (78,13%), ADF (76,76%), cellulose (80,81%) and hemicellulose (81,11 %).

Authors: Bhattacharjee Atanu , Dey Biplab Kumar
Published: June 2020

Coccinia indica Linn., a well explored traditional edible medicinal plant of North East region of India, is routinely used as folkloric medicine to treat neurological disorders associated with cognitive dysfunction. The objective of the study was to evaluate the antiamnesic activity of Coccinia indica fruit extract. Antiamnesic activity of Coccinia indica was studied in Elevated plus maze and Y-maze against scopolamine induced amnesia. Moreover, we studied the influence of Coccinia indica extract on whole brain acetyl cholinesterase enzyme. Ethanolic extracts of Coccinia indica (100, 200 and 400 mg/kg body weight) were administered to healthy adult Wistar rats for successive seven days and acquisition, retention and retrieval of spatial recognition memory was determined against scopolamine (1 mg/kg, i.p.) induced amnesia in-vivo. Further, whole brain acetylcholinesterase was estimated as per Elman’s method. Pre-treatment with Coccinia indica ethanolic extract significantly improved spatial learning and memory and decreased rat brain acetyl cholinesterase activity in a dose dependent manner and comparable with standard drug Donepezil. The results indicate that ethanolic extract of Coccinia indica might be a useful as natural source of antiamnesic drug to improve learning and memory deficit associated symptoms of dementia and Alzheimer’s patients.
Necropolitical Resistance in Early Modern Drama
Authors: Jansen Madison
Published: June 2020

Thomas Kyd's The Spanish Tragedy has been widely-read by the academic
community, but not always for its own sake. Its influence on the Revenge Tragedy genre,
and Shakespeare's Hamlet, have been common topics, sometimes at the expense
of readings that engage with the play itself. This thesis continues a tradition of applying
the ideas of Michel Foucault to the Early Modern era in order to interrogate the role of power,
knowledge, and sovereignty. This thesis explores the way that Michel Foucault's theory of
biopolitics, and the related concepts of necropolitics and necroresistance, create significant
new ways of understanding the characters and themes of Thomas Kyd's The Spanish Tragedy.
I first examine Bel-Imperia's presence in the text, as both a woman and a political pawn,
and argue that her physical body exists in a contested space, serving as both a location for
control and a means of resistance. By reinterpreting her role in the revenge narrative and her
suicide through a political lens, we can more fully appreciate her violent actions as expressions
of agency in pursuit of a calculated goal. Additionally, when we look at the stories of Hieronimo
and Horatio through a necropolitical lens, it foregrounds the centrality of class in the conflict
of the play. Through a close reading of Horatio's murder, I argue that Horatio and Hieronimo
represent the threat of social mobility to the insular aristocratic class embodied by Lorenzo and
Balthazar, and Horatio's murder serves as a reassertion of absolute sovereign control.
Hieronimo's violent actions carry different implications when we are able to read them
as not only acts of vengeance, but also, to some extent, of revolution. Ultimately, I argue that
applying biopolitical theories to The Spanish Tragedy, and other plays from the Early
Modern era, presents scholars with an opportunity to differently appreciate the relationship between
agency and violence, and make sense of the seemingly senseless violence that often characterizes
these works.
Association between serum lipid and ischaemic stroke in a tertiary hospital in Northern Andhra Pradesh, India
Authors: Rao Tamminana Venugopala , Rao Budumuru Annaji , Panchadi Sreedevi , Sudheer K.
Published: June 2020

Background: The incidence of cerebrovascular disease increases with age and the number of strokes is projected to increase as the elderly population grows. A stroke occurs when blood vessels that carry blood to the brain suddenly blocked or burst, preventing blood flow to the brain. The most common cause of blood vessel blockages is thrombosis (a blood clot) or an embolism (floating clot). Blood clots may form in the arteries that are damaged by atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is an aging process but some factors (risk factor) precipitate it to occur earlier. To find out the risk factors properly are of tremendous importance as risk factor change could directly influence or indirectly affect case fatality by altering the natural history of the disease. Serum lipids are thought to interact with the pathogenesis of stroke through the atherosclerotic mechanism. Objective was to identify the high serum lipid as an independent risk factor of stroke.Methods: This is a hospital-based case-control study. Seventy cases of stroke patients and age, sex-matched 70 healthy control subjects were enrolled by non-random sampling. 12 hours of fasting plasma lipids were estimated in both cases and control subjects. Then it was compared between cases and controls.Results: Hypercholesterolemia was higher in the case group than control but not statistically significant. Mean LDL- cholesterol, and triglycerides were significantly higher in the case group than the control group. The mean value of serum HDL-cholesterol was not significantly lower in the case group than the control group.Conclusions: Serum lipids are significantly higher in ischaemic stroke patients than the control group (LDL cholesterol and triglyceride). So, it may be an independent risk factor of ischemic stroke.

Published: June 2020

The author describes his personal experience as a young refugee from a revolution in Europe, through his later intimate contact with three refugee communities in the course of decades of work in Asia, and reflects upon the greater context of the numerous issues impacting on decision-making and enveloping the sphere of refugees. Especially in the current tide of millions displaced, it is not possible in times of crises to simply segue in an attempt to harmonize the exceedingly complex situation. All components of the inter-related issues and results, namely causes of flight, reception outside their home countries, plans for resettlement and actual resettlement, as well as retaining some level of communication with those left behind need to be understood through improved, proactive planning and preparation.

NOMINATIVE AND ATTRIBUTIVE EXOPHORIC REFERENCE IN FOREIGN PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION INSTRUCTIONS AS TEXT REFERENTIAL IDENTITY MEANS IN SPECIALIZED TRANSLATION
Authors: A. Semenyuk Oleh , Yu. Parashchuk Valentyna , O. Yarova Laryssa , S. Oliinyk Oksana
Published: June 2020

Purpose of the study: The present paper examined nominative and attributive exophoric reference and their textual referents in the English prescription medication instructions (henceforth is PMI).In the focus of research, there were the key referents that define the translator’s referential knowledge for the PMIs and the cognitive features of the referents verbalized in PMIs by means of nominative and attributive exophoric reference.

Nominative and attributive types of exophoric reference and their textual referents ensuring the referential identification of a foreign text and facilitating its understanding are in the focus of this research.

Methodology: The methodology of this study includes the following key methods: the method of contextual analysis; distributional analysis; descriptive method; quantitative evaluation method. The texts of prescription medication instructions, e.g. for “Nurofen For Children”, “Ibuprofen 400mg Tablets”, “Panadol”, etc., displayed on the Internet sites of pharmaceutical companies /pharmacies make the corpus of our observation material.

Main findings: Using English PMIs as the object of specialized translation, it is established that the PMI text exophoric referential net is created primarily by means of medical terms verbalizing objects and subjects of a PMI text (nominative exophoric reference) and verbal referents of their qualities and features (attributive exophoric reference), actualizing a foreign specialist text referential identity and thus facilitating its understanding.

Applications of this study: The study is intended for translators, translation students, ESP researchers. The education of specialized translation professionals should incorporate special text referential analysis as part of pre-translation analysis facilitating special text decoding and optimizing its understanding and subsequent translation.

Novelty/Originality of this study: the Nominative Exophoric Reference and Attributive Exophoric Reference creating the Text Exophoric Referential Net are described for English Prescription Medication Instructions as specialist texts intended for translation. It has been found out that both the source and target PMI texts relate to the same three entities of objective reality: MEDICINAL PRODUCT, HEALTH DISORDER, and PATIENT constituting the PMI’s referential identity.

Este documento presenta un estudio para la implementación de RPAS (por sus siglas en inglés, Remotely Piloted Aircraft System) en la investigación de un accidente aéreo. El propósito del estudio es evaluar la pertinencia de la implementación de dicha tecnología como herramienta válida y oportuna para el equipo de investigadores de accidentes aéreos. Para ello se realiza una revisión técnica de las capacidades generales de los RPAS y un análisis de Base Line. Este análisis se hace partiendo de una clasificación por peso, que remite a los datos de performance de cada aeronave, contenida en sus fichas técnicas de fábrica. Fueron analizados rpas multirotor con sensores especializados para misiones específicas y también las regulaciones que permiten su implementación en la escena del accidente aéreo. Se comparan además, los procedimientos actuales con aquellos que incluirían la utilización de RPAS en dicha escena. Para finalizar, se presta especial atención a la tecnología, clase de aeronave, sensórica, modos de operación, tiempo y costos. Se concluye que la implementación de los RPAS facilitaría la obtención de imágenes y otros datos en el lugar de los hechos. Esta tecnología, que evoluciona exponencialmente, podría ser incluida como una de las herramientas en la labor de un investigador de accidentes.
Fortalecimiento del proceso de certificación aeromédica en la Fuerza Aérea colombiana
Authors: Saavedra Martínez Luis Alberto
Published: June 2020

La certificación aeromédica en el mundo tiene un propósito primario: garantizar que el entorno aeronáutico cuente con personal capaz de operar en él de una forma segura. Los requerimientos de estados físico y mental pueden ser altos, dependiendo del ambiente en el cual se realicen las operaciones. Garantizarlos contribuye sustancialmente a garantizar la seguridad, pero se requiere una revisión exhaustiva del balance entre, por una parte, los requisitos y procesos de certificación aeromédica y, por otra parte, la realidad y necesidades operativas del entorno para garantizar que los procesos sean una herramienta efectiva y no únicamente requisitos. En este artículo se plantean unas alternativas para aumentar la objetividad de las decisiones en términos de certificación. Se toma como punto de partida la propuesta de estratificar los certificados dependiendo del equipo del que se trate y de la responsabilidad en la aeronave. Se considera igualmente el fortalecimiento de la toma de decisiones aeromédicas (adm, Aeromedical Decision Making) mediante el algoritmo propuesto por Navathe, Drane y Preitner para la Oficina de Medicina de Aviación de la Autoridad de Seguridad de la Aviación Civil en Canberra, Australia.
La inteligencia militar como actor fundamental en el afianzamiento de los escenarios de paz
Authors: Uribe Taborda Abdón Estibenson , Mesa Palacio Leonardo de Jesús
Published: June 2020

El presente documento de revisión resume el reto estratégico, operacional y táctico que tiene la inteligencia militar en Colombia, en el escenario de posconflicto. Por posconflicto se entiende el escenario posterior a la firma del acuerdo de paz entre el gobierno colombiano y el grupo exguerrillero de las Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (FARC), convertido hoy en el partido político Fuerza Alternativa Revolucionaria del Común. El presente trabajo, basado en las experiencias vividas por países como Irlanda del Norte y El Salvador en tiempos de posconflicto, compara el proceso de dichos países con el escenario colombiano de posconflicto. En este escenario, se presenta la reactivación de actores generadores de violencia, un incremento de la delincuencia, la reactivación de grupos paramilitares y la formación de nuevos grupos al margen de la ley, también llamados Grupos Armados Organizados (GAO). Estos nuevos retos se deben afrontar usando la inteligencia militar, la cual se constituye en un actor fundamental en el afianzamiento de los escenarios de paz, en especial, en las zonas más apartadas y marcadas por la violencia de nuestro país. Este afianzamiento convertirá a esas zonas en parte del desarrollo competitivo de Colombia.
Teachers' Instructional Competencies for Including Students with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities in General Education Settings
Authors: Keaney Lauren M.
Published: June 2020

The inclusion of students with disabilities in general education settings has increased particularly since 2004 due to the least restrictive environment provisions outlined in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). However, research has shown that general education teachers are ill prepared to teach students with disabilities, especially those with severe or low incidence disabilities. The current study explored the knowledge and skills required of general education teachers seeking to include students with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). We interviewed experienced teachers of students with I/DD to gain insight into such competencies. Participants were three educators (two teachers and one school director) in an elementary school for students with special needs. The participants discussed teaching methods and curriculum considerations relevant to including students with I/DD in general education settings. Data were analyzed utilizing pattern coding to generate categories and larger themes. Discussion and implications of these findings are offered.
Are All Districts Created Equal? Examining the Relationship between Socio-political Factors and "Women-Friendly" Districts
Authors: Noetzel Alexandra , 2019 Class of
Published: June 2020

This project asks readers to consider what factors influence women to enter races for U.S. Congress and why some districts are more “women friendly” than others. While multiple studies have been done that examine factors such as gendered media bias, cultural and society gender norms, and institutional factors in explaining the dearth of female candidates, there is little research on how different demographic elements of congressional districts effect a woman’s decision to run in a primary election. Hence, I examine the various sociopolitical factors of congressional districts that are unique to a district, such as unemployment rate, high school and college graduation rate, median household income, and a variety of other political variables to determine if they have any effect on the presence of a female candidate within that respective district’s primary election. This potential relationship will be studied by collecting data on the number of women who ran in either the Democratic or Republican primary during the 2016 election (the first year with no increase in the number of women in Congress in the past decades). I will also study if any of the district variables have varying effects across party lines, for example, if median household income shows an increase in women in the Democratic primary versus women in the Republican primary. Women are much more likely to identify with the Democratic Party than men, and women, in general, are likely elected in different districts than men.
Beyond the Numbers: The Experiential Effects of Stereotype Threat on Students of Color at TCU
Authors: Wulbrun Kendall
Published: June 2020

This study aims to examine if and how the effects of negative stereotypes of students of color are felt beyond the statistical measures of academic success, reaching into the classroom and social experiences of these students. Through face-to-face interviews with four Community Scholars on the campus of Texas Christian University, key stereotypes of students of color were identified and several implications examined. This paper provides an analysis of the ways in which the classroom dynamics and performance, as well as the social life and experiences, of students of color at TCU are impacted by their identity as students of color and the stereotypes that others hold about their abilities. These experiences are informed by the concept of stereotype threat, inwhich students experience identity contingencies when asked to perform in a situation relevant to the stereotypes held about their identity. Ultimately, this study hopes to inform better practices and spread awareness of the difficulties and challenges faced by students of color, both in the classroom and socially, during their experiences at TCU.
Modern Slavery in the Global Supply Chain: An Analysis of Published Preventative Statements and Frameworks to Protect Businesses and Individuals
Authors: Buck Laurel Elise
Published: June 2020

Modern slavery generates an estimated $150 billion in revenue annually. Derived from the exploited labor 40.3 million victims, this is one of the most profitable illicit industries. Of the estimated 24.9 million slaves institutionalized in forced labor, 16 million are exploited in the private sector. These 16 million are oppressed within corporate supply chains. This paper addresses the need for a common tool and set of criteria governing organizations’ actions. Such a tool and set of criteria are essential in not only combating modern slavery within corporations, but also throughout global supply chain tiers. Application of consistent tools and criteria will move the private sector forward in eradicating modern slavery by ensuring transparent reporting and effective action. The final deliverable consists of recommendations for adoption of publications and individual criterion—adaptable for all supply chain levels—for corporations to use in implementing, expanding, and improving their modern slavery and transparency initiatives.

The Stronger Impact of National Culture over Organizational Culture on Supply Chain Operations
Authors: Pratikno Roy Vincentius
Published: June 2020

The proponents of national culture have a strong belief that national culture has an impact on the performance of a firm. They also believe that national culture influences team work and the ability to innovate. They consider the impact of national culture on behavior and relationships to be longer lasting than cultural  influences that tend to diminish as a company changes. On the other hand, the supporters of organizational culture have a strong conviction that well-defined and widely used organizational practices throughout the organization will help an organization become excellent and capable of achieving high levels of performance. Both the partisans of organizational culture and the supporters of national culture have their own reasons as to why each side is more impactful when compared to the other. This paper attempts to answer which side has a stronger impact by reviewing the literature on the effect of national culture or organizational culture on the supply chain operations of MNCs in Japan and the US. It appears that national culture is more impactful than organizational culture when it comes to supply chain operations.

BAHASA INDONESIA ABSTRAK: Para pendukung budaya nasional memiliki keyakinan kuat bahwa budaya nasional berdampak pada kinerja perusahaan, mereka juga percaya bahwa budaya nasional mempengaruhi kerja tim, kemampuan untuk berinovasi dan mereka mempertimbangkan dampak budaya nasional terhadap perilaku, hubungan yang berkelanjutan setidaknya itu akan bertahan lebih lama dibandingkan dengan pengaruh budaya organisasi yang cenderung berkurang seiring perubahan perusahaan. Di sisi lain, para pendukung budaya organisasi memiliki keyakinan yang kuat bahwa melalui praktik organisasi yang didefinisikan dengan baik dan banyak digunakan di seluruh organisasi akan membantu organisasi untuk menjadi organisasi yang sangat baik yang mampu mencapai kinerja organisasi yang sangat baik. Baik pendukung budaya organisasi maupun pendukung budaya nasional memiliki alasan sendiri mengapa masing-masing pihak lebih berdampak dibandingkan dengan pihak lain. Makalah ini mencoba untuk menjawab sisi mana yang memang memiliki dampak yang lebih kuat dengan meninjau beberapa literatur tentang pengaruh budaya nasional atau budaya organisasi pada operasi rantai pasokan MNC di Jepang dan AS. Tampaknya budaya nasional lebih berdampak dibandingkan dengan budaya organisasi ketika datang ke operasi rantai pasokan.

Authors: Liwe Amelia Joan
Published: June 2020

Walaupun pengembangan Kajian Wilayah Asia Tenggara menjadi salah satu tujuan didirikannya ASEAN pada tahun 1967, kebanyakan karya utama original yang mendefinisikan dan menjelaskan kawasan Asia Tenggara justru dihasilkan dari luar kawasan ini. Dari sudut pandang hubungan internasional, khususnya konstruktivisme, identitas dan pembentukan pengetahuan mengenai identitas tersebut memiliki makna strategis. Dengan menggunakan metode studi pustaka dan analisis wacana, makalah ini akan (i) menjelaskan apa sebenarnya kajian Asia Tenggara tersebut dengan menggunakan beberapa contoh karya yang terkait isu maritim Asia Tenggara, (ii) membahas kendala pengembangan Kajian Wilayah Asia Tenggara di kawasan ini, (iii) menganalisis arti strategis pengembangan Kajian Wilayah Asia Tenggara dari sudut pandang Hubungan Internasional, dan (iv) menyarankan beberapa langkah praktis pengembangan ilmu ini untuk Indonesia.

 

Although the promotion of Southeast Asian Studies is one of the main objectives in the establishment of ASEAN, most major works of Southeast Asian Studies that define this region emerge outside of Southeast Asia. From an international relations perspective, particularly constructivism, identity and knowledge construction have strategic meaning. By reviewing the literature, this paper will (i) explain what Southeast Asian Studies is as an academic field, and (ii) analyze the strategic meaning of Southeast Asian Studies from an International Relations perspective.
EKONOMI POLITIK INISIATIF ONE BELT ONE ROAD TIONGKOK [ONE BELT ONE ROAD AS CHINA'S POLITICAL ECONOMIC INITIATIVE]
Authors: Widjaja Mercy
Published: June 2020

This study analyzes the political motives behind China’s economic policy, known as One Belt One Road (OBOR) Initiative. OBOR offers help to developing country, including Indonesia, to develop their infrastructure and domestic industries. This initiative can enlarge China's political power on the global scene, and pose a greater threat to the United States. To collect data and arguments about China's political and economic position, this study uses an explanative-qualitative method. Neorealism, hegemony stability, regionalism, and political economy are theories that are used to shape the thinking frameworks and to solve the existing problems. China also aims for greater power in the region, to secure the country’s interest. According to neorealism theory, a country's behavior is a manifestation of the country's interests and the only way to secure the country is by becoming a strong state. The stronger the state, the less chance that the country can be attacked. That means, China’s OBOR could also create conflict of interests with other countries.
