Published: November 2024

This article, under the title "The Power of Innovation: Entrepreneurship Ecosystem, Components, Research and Start-up Approaches and the Development Process of the Entrepreneurship Ecosystem in Turkey", examines how Turkey's dynamic entrepreneurship environment is shaped by innovation and the important components in this process. While entrepreneurship has a critical role in economic development and social transformation, innovation stands out as the main driving force of this process. First of all, Turkey's young and educated population, increasing digitalization and access to technology strengthen the entrepreneurial culture and create new business opportunities. In the article, the basic elements of the innovation ecosystem in Turkey, namely the interactions between universities, public institutions, the private sector and entrepreneurs, are discussed in detail. Additionally, the difficulties faced by entrepreneurs in Turkey are analyzed through factors such as limited financial resources, inadequate mentoring and training opportunities. In this context, the effects of the state's innovation strategies, incentive mechanisms and entrepreneurship support programs are examined. For example, the contributions of the supports provided by organizations such as KOSGEB and TÜBİTAK to the realization of entrepreneurs' projects are emphasized. In the article, the contribution of international collaborations and foreign investments to Turkey's innovation ecosystem is discussed, thus focusing on its competitiveness potential in the global market. Additionally, successful domestic enterprise examples are supported by concrete data showing how innovation and entrepreneurship create synergy. As a result, the development of the entrepreneurship ecosystem in Turkey is directly linked to the power of innovation. In order to create a sustainable innovation environment, the need for continuous support, training and policy development comes to the fore. This article aims to provide readers with a comprehensive perspective by presenting the paths and strategies to be followed to maximize Turkey's entrepreneurial potential.
Socioeconomic Status and Physical Fitness Levels among University Students
Authors:   Graduate School, Emilio Aguinaldo College, Paco, Manila, Philippines, Che Li
Published: November 2024

This study examines the correlation between socioeconomic status (SES) and physical fitness levels among university students in Henan, China. The research considers various SES indicators, including parental education, household income, and access to healthcare, in relation to students' self-assessed physical fitness and activity levels across multiple domains, such as vigorous physical activity, organized sports, and recreational activities. Findings reveal that students from lower SES backgrounds often face barriers, such as limited access to safe recreational spaces and organized sports, which may hinder their ability to participate in physical activities, thereby impacting their fitness levels. In contrast, students from higher SES backgrounds have greater access to fitness resources, leading to more favorable physical fitness outcomes. The study underscores the need for policy interventions and school programs that prioritize equitable access to physical activity opportunities for students of all socioeconomic backgrounds.

Abstract: TVET offers opportunities to equip youth with industry-relevant skills, bridging the gap between education and employment. However, challenges such as inadequate funding, outdated curricula, limited access to modern equipment, and negative perceptions hinder its potential. This study assessed the effectiveness of TVET training in enhancing youth employability n Kisumu County, Kenya. Social learning theory and Human capital theory were adopted. A descriptive survey design was adopted. The study targeted a population of 20,857 consisting of 20,814 TVET students, 42 Heads of TVET institutions and 1 County Education Officer in Kisumu County Government. The sample size was 379 determined using Krejcie and Morgan (1970) formula. Sampling was conducted by means of disproportionate stratified random sampling. Structured questionnaires and interview guide were used to collect data. Data analytical methods were content analysis, descriptive and inferential statistics. Linear relationships between variables were determined using Pearson`s Correlation analysis method. The correlational coefficient for youth employment was=0.57 implying a moderate positive relationship between TVET training and youth employability. Government as policy-maker was recommended to institute regular reform for reviewing the existing TVET curricula in order to incorporate feedback from students and adapt to emerging dynamics of demographic dividends. The Government should increase funding, resources for TVET Institutions: The government should allocate more financial resources to TVET institutions to enhance infrastructure and support the development of industry-relevant programs and strengthen industry partnerships and collaborations between TVET institutions and industries to ensure that training programs are aligned with current labor market demands.
Does the Presence of Immigrants Increase Perceived Threat? An Examination through Experimental Games
Authors: Kashihara Soichiro , Shimizu Hiroshi
Published: November 2024

Perceived threats from immigrants have been associated with heightened anti-immigrant attitudes among host country citizens (Esses et al., 2001, 1998). However, most studies have focused on assessing attitudes using scales, with few investigating behavioral responses. This study developed a new experimental game based on the Preemptive Strike Game (Simunovic et al., 2013) to measure reactions to perceived threats of immigrant attacks. A sample of Japanese participants (N = 1,153; pre-registered) was divided into two groups: one group faced a Japanese opponent (Japanese condition), whereas the other faced an immigrant opponent (Immigrant condition). The results did not show a significant increase in defensive behaviors toward immigrants. However, at a descriptive level, the findings suggest the potential for defensive behaviors to arise from perceived threats. The study discusses the implications for future research including the need to accurately identify threat-induced behaviors.

A hidronefrose neonatal é uma complicação urinária que resulta do acúmulo de urina nas vias urinárias altas, levando à dilatação da pelve renal, e pode ser causada por estenose, tumores ou malformações congênitas. Sua detecção precoce é crucial para prevenir complicações renais permanentes e promover intervenções adequadas. Este estudo realizou uma revisão da literatura sobre a importância da ultrassonografia e outros exames de imagem na identificação de hidronefrose neonatal. A pesquisa foi realizada entre 2 e 3 de setembro de 2024, utilizando bases de dados como BVS, PubMed e Google Acadêmico. Foram estabelecidos critérios rigorosos de inclusão e exclusão para garantir a relevância dos artigos analisados. Os estudos selecionados revelaram que exames de imagem, como ressonância magnética, podem ser essenciais em casos em que a ultrassonografia apresenta limitações, ajudando a determinar a gravidade da condição e orientando intervenções. A triagem neonatal e a ultrassonografia são fundamentais para a detecção precoce da hidronefrose, permitindo intervenções que previnem sequelas e diminuem a necessidade de reinternações. Além disso, o suporte emocional e informações adequadas são essenciais para gestantes, considerando as preocupações geradas por diagnósticos de anomalias fetais. A abordagem integrada no perinatal é crucial para um prognóstico positivo.

DA (IN)APLICABILIDADE DAS IMUNIDADES DOS CRIMES PATRIMONIAIS EM SITUAÇÃO DE VIOLÊNCIA DOMÉSTICA
Authors: Veiga Ana Flávia Bezerra , Silva Gabriel Tavares da , Oliveira Marcelo Lima de
Published: November 2024

Este trabalho almeja discutir a aplicação das imunidades penais previstas nos artigos 181 e 182 do Código Penal brasileiro após a promulgação da Lei Maria da Penha (Lei nº 11.340/2006). O Código Penal estabelece imunidades penais individuais para delitos patrimoniais, isentando de pena o agente que comete crimes sem violência ou grave ameaça, especialmente quando as vítimas são ascendentes, descendentes ou cônjuges em sociedade conjugal. A imunidade do artigo 181 é absoluta, enquanto a do artigo 182 é relativa, dependendo da representação da vítima para a continuidade do processo. Com a entrada em vigor da Lei Maria da Penha, que visa proteger a mulher contra a violência doméstica e familiar, torna-se evidente que a manutenção da vigência dos incisos I e II do art. 181 do CP violam os preceitos dos princípios da dignidade da pessoa humana (art. 1º, III, da CF), da igualdade (art. 5º, caput e inciso I, da CF), do devido processo legal substantivo (art. 5º, LIV, da CF), da titularidade privativa da ação penal pública pelo Ministério Público (art. 129, I, da CF), da igualdade conjugal (art. 226, § 6º, da CF) e do dever constitucional de prevenção da violência intrafamiliar (art. 226, § 8º, da CF). Após realizar uma análise histórica e contextual da violência doméstica no Brasil, apresentamos e discutimos os posicionamentos a favor e contra a aplicabilidade das imunidades penais. Essa discussão é baseada em uma pesquisa bibliográfica abrangente, que inclui doutrinas, revistas científicas, jurisprudências, sites da internet e outras fontes relevantes. Nas conclusões, mesmo diante das divergências doutrinárias que ainda existem sobre o tema, destaca-se o entendimento do Superior Tribunal de Justiça (STJ) favorável à aplicabilidade das imunidades penais. Esse entendimento se fundamenta na argumentação de que a Lei 11.340/06, que trata da violência doméstica, não revogou essas imunidades, seja de forma expressa ou tácita. Assim, a sua inaplicabilidade poderia infringir os princípios constitucionais da isonomia e legalidade. Dessa forma, utilizamos métodos de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, amparados por leis, doutrinas e artigos de diversos autores que abordam esse assunto tão relevante para o cenário jurídico brasileiro.

Published: November 2024

O presente estudo aborda como o advento das novas tecnologias, nos mais diversos âmbitos da humanidade, emergiu em novas formas de prestação de serviços que se adaptam a essas inovações. Essas modalidades de trabalho se alinham com a tendência de flexibilização das relações laborais, desafiando os vínculos entre trabalhadores e colaboradores, frequentemente representados por plataformas digitais. De tal forma, traz o seguinte questionamento: como as normas trabalhistas podem ser dinamizadas para se adequarem às novas tecnologias e às modernas relações de trabalho? Nesse sentido, o presente artigo busca analisar os novos paradigmas na estrutura laborativa no século XXI, influenciados pelas novas tecnologias, destacando a influência da evolução histórica das relações de emprego e do processo de Uberização. Com isso, foram elencados três objetivos específicos para essa pesquisa, quais sejam: contextualizar e descrever o fenômeno da Uberização; analisar os elementos que caracterizam as relações de emprego e como tais elementos ocorrem na plataforma da Uber; apresentar os impactos dessa nova modalidade de sistema laboral no ordenamento jurídico vigente. Para atingir esses objetivos, a metodologia utilizada para o presente trabalho foi a revisão bibliográfica, adotando uma abordagem qualitativa de natureza jurídico- exploratória, revisitando a necessidade de existir um entendimento fixado em lei, que defina a atual situação dos motoristas de aplicativo. Da mesma maneira, ao se valer de buscas em revistas, artigos, livros, doutrinas e a própria legislação vigente relacionados à temática da Uberização, ficou demonstrado como as relações trabalhistas passaram por transformações ao longo do tempo com a implementação das novas tecnologias, influenciando diretamente no surgimento do processo de Uberização, além de apresentar o atual entendimento jurisprudencial acerca do fenômeno da Uberização.
Evaluating F10.7 and F30 Radio Fluxes as Long-Term Solar Proxies of Energy Deposition in the Thermosphere
Authors: Qian Liying , Mursula Kalevi
Published: November 2024

Abstract. We use model simulations and observations to examine how well the F10.7 and F30 solar radio fluxes represent solar forcing in the thermosphere during the last 60 years of weakening solar activity. We found that increased saturation of radio fluxes during the last two extended solar minima leads to an overestimation of solar energy deposition, which manifests as a change in the linear relation between thermospheric parameters and F10.7. On the other hand, the linear relation between thermospheric parameters and F30 remains nearly the same throughout the whole studied period because of a recently found relative increase of F30 with respect to F10.7. This explains the earlier finding that F30 correlates better with several ionospheric and thermospheric parameters than F10.7 during the last decades. We note that continued evaluation is needed to see how well F10.7 and F30 will serve as solar proxies in the future when solar activity may start increasing toward the next grand maximum.

Published: November 2024

Abstract. Ozone (O3) air pollution is well known to adversely affect both the grain and protein yield of wheat, an important staple crop. This study aims to identify and model the key plant processes influencing the effect of O3 on wheat protein. The DO3SE-Crop model was modified in this work to incorporate nitrogen (N) processes, and we parameterised the O3 effect on stem, leaf, and grain N using O3 fumigation datasets spanning 3 years and four O3 treatments. These modifications mean that the newly developed DO3SE-CropN model is the first crop model to include O3 effects on N processes, making it a valuable tool for understanding O3 effects on wheat quality. Our results show that the new model captures the O3 effect on grain N concentrations and the anthesis leaf and stem concentrations well, with an R2 of 0.6 for the increase in grain N concentration and an R2 of 0.3 for the decrease in grain N content under O3 exposure. However, the O3 effect on harvest leaf and stem N is exaggerated. Overestimations of harvest leaf N range from ∼20 % to 120 %, while overestimations of harvest stem N range from ∼40 % to 120 %. Further, a sensitivity analysis revealed that, irrespective of O3 treatment, early senescence onset (simulated as being ∼13 d earlier in the treatment with very high O3 vs. the low-O3 treatment) was the primary plant process affecting grain N. This finding has implications for the breeding of stay-green cultivars for maintaining yield, as well as quality, under O3 exposure. This modelling study therefore demonstrates the capability of the DO3SE-CropN model to simulate processes by which O3 affects N content and, thereby, determines that senescence onset is the main driver of O3 reductions in grain protein yield. The implication of the sensitivity analysis is that breeders should focus their efforts on stay-green cultivars that do not experience a protein penalty when developing O3-tolerant lines, to maintain both wheat yield and nutritional quality under O3 exposure. This work supports the second phase of the Tropospheric Ozone Assessment Report (TOAR) by investigating the impacts of tropospheric O3 on wheat, with a focus on wheat quality impacts that will subsequently affect human nutrition.
Development of A Fast Radiative Transfer Model for Ground-based Microwave Radiometers (ARMS-gb v1.0): Validation and Comparison to RTTOV-gb
Authors: Shi Yi-Ning , Yang Jun , Han Wei , Han Lujie , Mao Jiajia , Kan Wanlin , Weng Fuzhong
Published: November 2024

Abstract. A fast radiative transfer model (RTM), ARMS-gb, capable of simulating brightness temperatures observed by ground-based microwave radiometers (GMRs) is proposed in this study. Several improvements are introduced in the Optical Depth in Pressure Space scheme to achieve higher accuracy. 101-level ECMWF 83 profiles are utilized as its primary training dataset. Seven additional profiles from UMBC 48 are augmented with this dataset to improve simulation accuracy in moist environments. When compared to MonoRTM, ARMS-gb shows high accuracy with root mean square error less than 0.12 K for all observed channels of MP3000A and HATPRO. An advanced water vapor vertical interpolation mode is also incorporated, which generally proves more accurate than that used in RTTOV-gb. Bias drops can reach up to 0.19 K for mean biases (AVG) and 0.15 K for standard deviation (STD) in channels with strong water vapor absorption. Jacobian calculated by these two modes are also differ. To further validate the performance of ARMS-gb, it is applied in simulating real observations from GMRs, with the simulated results compared to those of RTTOV-gb. Long-term observations from two GMRs under different climate conditions are selected as true reference values. Results show that ARMS-gb align with RTTOV-gb well and can achieve smaller STD in water vapor absorption channels. Furthermore, the calibration time is more clearly identified in the observations minus background series of ARMS-gb compared to original observation series, demonstrating its ability to monitor observational quality.

Published: November 2024

Abstract. Here, we use carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrous oxide (N2O) and radon (222Rn) data from the Saclay ICOS tall tower in France to estimate CO2, CH4 and CO fluxes within the station footprint from January 2017 to December 2022 and N2O fluxes from February 2019 to December 2022 using the Radon Tracer Method (RTM). We ﬁrst performed a sensitivity study of this method applied to CH4 and combined with different radon exhalation maps including the improved European process-based radon ﬂux maps developed within 19ENV01 traceRadon and back-trajectories in order to optimize it. Then, radon exhalation maps from the 19ENV01 traceRadon project, STILT trajectories from the ICOS Carbon Portal, best estimate of radon activity concentration and greenhouse gas data have been used to estimate the surface emissions. To our knowledge, this is the first study using the latest radon exhalation maps and standardized radon measurements to estimate CO2, CH4, CO and N2O surface emissions. We found that the average RTM estimates are 609 ± 402 mg m−2 h−1, 0.81 ± 0.66 mg m−2 h−1, 1.04±1.80 mg m−2 h−1 and 0.063 ± 0.079 mg m−2 h−1 for CO2, CH4, CO and N2O respectively. These fluxes are in good agreement with the literature. CH4, N2O and CO are in fair agreement with the inventories, though with higher values. CO2 fluxes are about five times higher than modeled anthropogenic and biogenic fluxes combined. The differences mainly occur during summer, and the CO/CO2 ratio points toward a misrepresentation of the biogenic fluxes at this time by the WRF-VPRM version used here.
Sensitivity experiments with ICON-LAM to test probable explanations for higher ice crystal number over Arctic sea ice vs. ocean
Authors: Papakonstantinou-Presvelou Iris , Quaas Johannes
Published: November 2024

Abstract. Arctic warming is causing the sea ice to retreat, exposing larger areas of open ocean. This shift is expected to alter aerosol emissions, potentially influencing cloud microphysics and ratiative properties. Recent studies show that ocean-derived ice nucleating particles are highly efficient in ice nucleation at relatively warm temperatures. However, our previous study, a 10-year analysis of ice crystal number concentration from DARDAR-Nice satellite retrievals revealed higher ice numbers over sea ice compared to open ocean (Papakonstantinou-Presvelou et al., 2022). In the current study we explore potential causal explanations behind this contrast. We perform kilometer scale resolution simulations with the ICON-LAM atmospheric model for a 3-day period in March 2019. We validate the satellite retrievals with recent aircraft in situ observations collected during the AFLUX campaign, finding general agreement in the observed contrast of ice crystal numbers between sea ice and open ocean. Sensitivity experiments investigate three potential mechanisms; enhanced INP concentrations over sea ice, blowing snow particles and secondary ice production (SIP). Our results suggest that both INPs over sea ice and blowing snow particles can explain the observed difference below −10 °C, while secondary ice production cannot account for the difference above −10 °C. We thus conclude that as sea ice retreats in a warming Arctic, the two former processes become less relevant, leading to lower particle concentrations in a future climate.
Overlapping turbulent boundary layers in an energetic coastal sea

Published: November 2024

Abstract. Turbulent mixing properties were directly observed to understand the interactions and overlapping events of wind- and tidally-forced boundary layers in a deep, weakly-stratified coastal sea. Te-Moana-o-Raukawa/Cook Strait of Aotearoa New Zealand is an 𝒪(200 m)-deep, energetic strait, known to experience both strong tidal currents and high wind speeds. More than 𝒪(40,000) quality-controlled turbulence observations were obtained from an ocean glider equipped with a microstructure profiler and a current speed through water sensor. Tidal flows of 𝒪(1 m s-1) and wind speeds of 𝒪(10 m s-1) independently enhanced turbulent dissipation to ε = 𝒪(10-5 W kg-1) in bottom and surface mixed layers. Over a four-day period, boundary-generated turbulence was evident in the interior water column on ten occasions, enhancing interior diapycnal diffusivity levels by 5-35-fold, reaching Kz = 𝒪(0.1–1 m2 s-1). On three instances, the top and bottom mixed layers overlapped. These overlapping boundary layers were present in water depths five-times deeper than previously observed, which has implications for the vertical extent of material fluxes from the surface or seafloor. Interior stratification was transient, emerging from far-field advection of low density surface waters and supported by vertical buoyancy fluxes, episodically fully eroded by boundary-generated turbulence. Combining observations with one-dimensional General Ocean Turbulence Model (GOTM) outputs, turbulence interactions in the interior were found to be modulated by wind, tides and transient stratification fields, in turn influencing the vertical structure of sinks and sources of turbulent kinetic energy. Enhanced vertical transport toward the interior of the near-boundary shear-produced turbulence was found to erode interior stratification.

Abstract. The study aims to estimate the environmental critical thresholds using statistical approaches to understand the landslide conditioning factors that can trigger landslides in the Continental Basaltic Provinces a landslide-prone area, using as reference the landslides that occurred in an extreme rainfall event. The study area is a region that was the scene of an extreme hydrological event in January 2017, with an accumulated volume of rain of 163.9 mm in 8 hours, causing a widespread event of shallow planar landslides with more than 400 scars detected. Hydrological, anthropic, geological, geomorphological, and topographical features of this region were analyzed considering landslides and non-landslides samples set, and their influence in the event was carried out using the Frequency Ratio method, followed by Pearson's Linear Correlation Coefficient and Linear Regression. The results showed that this process helped us to understand environmental critical thresholds based on classes of conditioning factors that have a greater influence on rainfall-triggered landslide occurrences and, consequently, higher predictive capacity in the landslide susceptibility models with the same geoenvironmental parameters which is a valuable insight for risk management.

In Spring 2022, the Theory Center Reading Group at Indiana University- Bloomington was devoted to the work of Martinican writer and thinker Édouard Glissant. We focused on his Poetics of Relation (Poétique de la Relation 1990, English tr. 1997), while also engaging with the recently translatedTreatise on the Whole-World (Traité du Tout-Monde, 1996, English tr. 2020). An award-winning fiction and poetry writer, Glissant (1928-2011) is arguably the most influential Caribbean thinker of the 20th century, who over the course of his career developed a unique aesthetic and philosophical lexicon that has shaped the language and perspectives of successive generations of theorists in poststructuralism, postcolonialism, and globalization. His works cover virtually all genres and forms, from lyrical poetry to scholarly studies, from historical and experimental fiction to philosophical essays and political manifestos on topics as enduring and as urgent as slavery, racism, (neo)colonialism, creolization, and the “chaos-world.” Concepts such as opacity, Relation, “archipelagic” and “trembling” thinking, rhizomatic identity, and the “Whole-World” generated conversations with thinkers like Gilles Deleuze, Jacques Derrida, Derek Walcott, Abdelkebir Khatibi, Achille Mbembe and others. Moreover, Glissant and his late idea of the “entour” have also influenced a younger generation of scholars in environmental humanities, intermediality and visual arts, and alter-globalization. In 2020, the Glissant Translation Project started publishing Glissant’s works in English in a comprehensive manner, attesting to the growing interest in his work far beyond the confines of his native Antilles and a Francophone audience to readers across the globe.
Caribbean Confederations as Relationalities
Authors: Martínez-San Miguel Yolanda
Published: November 2024

In this essay, I connect my work on Archipelago studies with Édouard Glissant’s notions of relationality and Caribbean confederations to formulate what I denominate as the erotics of archipelagic thinking. My main goal is to share my process of thinking with and through Glissant’s work to focus on a series of theoretical gestures that have allowed me to propose modes of reading literary depictions of Caribbean con/federations that go beyond the binary opposition between colonialism and nationalism. I am performing an exercise that I assign to my students when I teach the “Introduction to Critical Theory” course at the University of Miami. Instead of writing an essay with a short theoretical introduction followed by a detailed close reading of literary and cultural texts that illustrate a keyword or a theoretical insight, I conduct a methodological meditation in which I theorize the archipelagic as a form of relationality that configures an erotic imaginary beyond the nuclear family and towards affective networks. To think about the Caribbean as an archipelagic formation, I use my comparative work on the Antillean Confederation in the Hispanic Caribbean (1860-1898) and the West Indies Federation in the English Caribbean (1958-1962) as a historical context in which the region congealed as a network of locations “act[ing] in concert."
Glissant and the Politics of Coordination
Authors: Gershon Ilana
Published: November 2024

This is an ironic moment for Edouard Glissant’s growing community of readers. So many are discovering Glissant’s work for the first time, myself included, in part because a fervent commitment to a politics of recognition now dominates in many corners of the humanities. This is ironic largely because while the choice to engage with Glissant might be motivated by an all too generalized logic of recognition, to read Glissant is to learn about how the basic premises underpinning this logic are deeply misguided. The politics of recognition, as a term of art, after all, is built on the conceptual planks made available by the standardizing impulses of the nation-state form and capitalism combined. Glissant, on the other hand, is nothing if not a theorist calling fervently for a path forward that does not depend on the complicities found in the conceptual imperialism inherent to the bureaucratic standardizing practices that bolster both the nation-state and contemporary capitalism. Glissant calls instead for an approach that offers the philosophical building blocks for a politics of coordination, which is described in Patchell Markell’s book, Bound by Recognition (2003) as a politics of acknowledgement.  This politics entails forgingan alternative approach to the self and other, to identity and place, and to social orders in general than what the politics of recognition espouses.
The Divine Game Versus the Demonic Game
Authors: Govaerts Brecht
Published: November 2024

In Difference and Repetition1 Deleuze sets out to critique the regime of representation and common sense by developing a new conception of difference and repetition in which difference and repetition become liberated from the coherence and continuity of a self or I.2 Difference in itself means that difference has become independent not only from representation, but also from an enduring or coherent self. Difference in itself and repetition in itself are the becoming different and the repetition of a fractured or dissolved self, which Deleuze relates to both a larval subject3 and to a simulacrum.4 In Difference and Repetition Deleuze defines both the concepts of larval subject and simulacrum through the multiplicities and differential relations of the realm of the virtual.5 However, they are not the same. A simulacrum defines a condition in which an entity has become transformed into pure appearance in which nothing appears. A simulacrum is no longer an entity, but only the illusion of an entity.6 This is distinct from the larval subject because the larval subject is an embryonic entity, an entity in the process of formation.7 Through an analysis of the conceptual relation and distinction between larval subject and simulacrum in the first part of the essay, I will reinterpret Deleuze as a philosopher of indifference and the impossibility of repetition, which is a critique on the common idea that Deleuze’s Difference and Repetition is a philosophy of pure difference and pure repetition. Also, I will argue that Deleuze did not just develop a transcendental empiricism (a metaphysics of process), but a philosophy of the universal in itself (which is the collapse of metaphysics). The universal in itself emerges when experience collapses and when the self-determination of entities has become impossible.

The aim of this research is to investigate and analyze the impact of green accounting and Kinerja Lingkungan on the profitability of food and beverage companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2018 to 2022. The sample, consisting of 8 companies, was determined using a purposive sampling method. The data utilized in this research comprise secondary data extracted from the annual reports of food and beverage companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) spanning the period 2018-2022. The analytical approach employed is panel data regression analysis, with the random effect model (REM) selected as the research model. According to the findings from the analysis conducted using Eviews (Econometric Views) version 12, it was discovered that the green accounting variable influences profitability. This is attributed to the perception of green accounting as a long-term investment for the company, wherein present expenditures can bolster the company's reputation. Conversely, the Kinerja Lingkungan variable does not impact profitability. Despite most companies receiving a blue rating, signifying compliance with environmental regulations, the results of Kinerja Lingkungan have not ensured an augmentation in the company's profitability.
FINTECH dan Akseptabilitasnya terhadap UMKM
Authors: Rini Purnamasari  , Rismala
Published: November 2024

Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mendiskusikan keberadaan Fintech dalam menunjang kinerja UMKM. Dengan menggunakan metode studi literatur dan merujuk pada berbagai sumber yang relevan, penelitian menemukan bahwa kehadiran Fintech memberikan manfaat besar bagi UMKM. Fintech tidak hanya memberikan kemudahan dan kecepatan bagi pengguna layanan, tetapi juga menawarkan efisiensi dan keuntungan ekonomis. Bagi penyedia layanan, Fintech mampu mengurangi biaya operasional dan menyederhanakan proses transaksi. Selain sebagai sumber pinjaman modal, Fintech juga berperan dalam proses transaksi dan pengelolaan keuangan UMKM. Meskipun layanan keuangan yang disediakan oleh Fintech Syariah dan konvensional memiliki tujuan yang sama, namun akad pembiayaan Fintech Syariah harus mematuhi prinsip syariat Islam. Dengan demikian, kinerja keuangan UMKM dapat meningkat dengan lebih cepat, mudah, dan efisien, sambil tetap mematuhi prinsip-prinsip syariah. Tiga prinsip syariat yang harus dipatuhi adalah larangan terhadap maisir (bertaruh), garar (ketidakpastian), dan riba (bunga melebihi ketentuan yang ditetapkan). Akad pada pembiayaan syariah juga harus digunakan untuk tujuan tertentu agar sesuai dengan prinsip syariah.

Minimum surface roughness in the machining process affects the quality of a material. Likewise with the results of the Vertical Milling process. One of the things that influences surface roughness in the milling process is the selection of machining parameters. Apart from selecting machining process parameters, another thing that influences surface roughness is the presence of coolant. The aim of this research is to determine the surface roughness results of ST37 steel due to variations in cutting speed, feed speed and coolant discharge during the vertical milling process. Data testing uses multiple linear regression. The research results show that the influence of the feeding speed parameter has the greatest influence and the smallest influence is on the coolant discharge, where the results of the regression test results are Ra = 100.636 *(v)-0.577 *(vf)0.159 *(q)-0.245 with a value R Square is 0.846 or 84.6%.
