The fluid power: constructing the concept of power in community-based tourism in Indonesia
Authors: Rembulan Cicilia Larasati , Helmi Avin Fadilla , Riyono Bagus 
Published: August 2020

Purpose
The concept of power in the literature is not conclusive yet and still contradictive. As contested concept, power have multi-definition in the literature. This study aims to construct a concept of power between organizations, state-owned enterprises (SOE) and communities in the context of community-based tourism in Borobudur, Indonesia.

Design/methodology/approach
Participants were 29 individuals representing SOEs (i.e. executive members) and local communities (e.g. village chiefs, community enterprise, managers and residents). Data collection was conducted through interviews, focus group discussions, field records and documents. Using grounded theory, the data were analyzed using open, axial and selective coding.

Findings
This study discovered that power was fluid. At first, power was a static resource then when it exchanged, it turned into relational/power interplay and at last, became output resource. There was a transformation of antecedent resources of power into a consequential source of power through relationship processes.

Research limitations/implications
This study should be replicated in other settings for further research, for example, in a business-to-business context and business-to-government to develop a general framework.

Practical implications
Policymakers should be aware of such fluid power to ensure that community-based tourism programs can benefit all parties involved.

Originality/value
Findings from this study make several contributions to current literature as follows: this study extends from the existing theories of power, the community-based tourism context where this study was conducted represents actual social situation allowing it to be transferrable to real environment and elaborating theory of power into a comprehensive framework.
Culture of assessment in academic libraries in Kuwait: investigating the current situation and future prospects
Authors: Alajmi Bibi M. , Kaisar Madiha 
Published: August 2020

PurposeUsing the Association of Research Libraries' SPEC KIT 303 library assessment framework, this study examines and evaluates academic libraries' efforts toward establishing a culture of assessment.Design/methodology/approachA quantitative questionnaire is employed to collect data. The sample comprises 70 library staff working in eight academic libraries in public and private universities in Kuwait.FindingsThe findings document a readiness to create a culture of assessment in Kuwaiti academic libraries, though this was greater in private universities. Resources to develop this culture, such as assessment and analysis methods and the requisite skills and knowledge, are available, but commitment from academic leaders and plans for a shift toward culture of assessment were not evident. Overall, participating academic library staff acknowledged the value of developing a culture of assessment, but this seems not to be an institutional priorityPractical implicationsThe methodology and findings address gaps in library and information science education and library management on creating a culture of assessment and suggest future research avenues.Originality/valueLibrary assessment is a core function of libraries, but guaranteeing the continuity and consistency of related activities requires an organizational culture that facilitates and supports such assessment. While many articles have focused on the requisites for building a culture of assessment in higher education, few, if any, have assessed academic libraries in the cultural context of the Middle East.
Minority shareholders dispute tang Plaza’s value
Authors: Jian Ming , Lim Rony 
Published: August 2020

Theoretical basis
This case covers the framework and process to determine fair value as specified in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) 13. It illustrates an instance in which auditors interpret the concept of fair value to be consistent with other principles in standards such as the principle of prudence in the conceptual framework. In addition, a lot of the discussion in the case is applicable to accounting education in any regulatory jurisdictions given the convergence of US generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and IFRS 13. In addition, while fair value accounting may have been designed to give investors more useful information, in practise it could involve highly subjective judgement and the resulting implementation may be affected by incentives of different stakeholders. The CK Tang’s case provides an excellent opportunity to discuss incentives of varies parties in determining the fair value in financial reporting decisions. In short, this case could be a good jumping-off point to talk about management and auditors’ incentives in financial reporting in general.

Research methodology
Publicly available information (e.g. financial reporting standards, corporate announcements and reports, news reports) was used as the basis for this case.

Case overview/synopsis
The case centres on an iconic Singaporean integrated retailing and property landlord entity: Tang holdings. As part of its succession planning, the company’s founding family decided to take its listing arm, C.K. Tang Limited (CK Tang hereafter), private in May 2006. The Tang brothers, who represented the controlling family, initiated several attempts to delist the company. The minority shareholders of CK Tang were unhappy that the offer price was below the net asset value of the company. The minority shareholders also highlighted that the reported fair value of the flagship Tang Plaza complex understated its highest and best use and might not possibly comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) 13.

Complexity academic level
The case can be used for class discussions with undergraduate students or master students in intermediate accounting courses.
Whither Security Cooperation in the BRICS? Between the Protection of Norms and Domestic Politics Dynamics
Authors: Fracalossi de Moraes Rodrigo 
Published: August 2020

AbstractThis paper argues that the BRICS are status quo powers concerning two core norms of the international society: sovereignty and hierarchy, what conditions both the scope and depth of their security cooperation. On the one hand, this enables cooperation, as they can use the group to protect these norms and reinforce state control on transnational flows. In addition, this facilitates the formation of ties among foreign policy and bureaucratic elites across the BRICS who share a preference for protecting these norms. On the other hand, the importance attached to these norms constrains cooperation: differences of regime type are associated to higher levels of distrust; and intragroup power asymmetries raise fears of potential unequal agreements. The paper then applies these ideas to indicate the potential for cooperation on anti‐drug and cybersecurity policies. On the one hand, different regime types and power inequalities are likely to hinder cooperation. On the other hand, interests from foreign policy, political and bureaucratic elites in protecting norms, as well as in increasing state control on transnational flows and expand repression against new threats are likely to facilitate cooperation.

AbstractThere are currently eight native horse populations in Japan, namely, Hokkaido, Kiso, Noma, Taishu, Misaki, Tokara, Miyako, and Yonaguni horses. Since locomotion traits, including gaitedness, are important for riding and packing horses, the genetic properties associated with these traits could be informative for understanding the characteristics and history of these horses. In this study, we investigated the distribution of the mutant allele of DMRT3 gene (DMRT3:p.Ser301Ter) associated with ambling gaits in the Japanese native horse. We also examined haplotypes of SNPs in the 83‐kb region including DMRT3 gene by genotyping four SNPs in this region. The results revealed the presence of DMRT3:p.Ser301Ter in the Hokkaido and Yonaguni populations at allele frequencies of 0.18 and 0.02, respectively, and the observed haplotype associated with DMRT3:p.Ser301Ter was estimated as the most common haplotype in the horses in the world. Since DMRT3:p.Ser301Ter has been hypothesized to spread across Eurasian continent from Medieval England after 850 to 900 CE, our findings of the presence of DMRT3:p.Ser301Ter with the common haplotype in the Japanese native horses will provide a new insight into the history of the Japanese native horse, such as considerable level of gene flow from Eurasian continent after 850 to 900 CE.

ObjectiveTo assess the efficacy of an herbal spray combining various essential oils, with a claim of mast cell stabilisation, antipruritic, anti‐inflammatory, and insect repellent effects on the clinical presentation of insect bite hypersensitivity (IBH) in horses.DesignDouble‐blinded, placebo‐controlled, randomised, cross‐over clinical trial.MethodsTwenty adult horses with clinical IBH were treated with a daily application of herbal spray or placebo for 28 days in a randomised, cross‐over fashion, separated by a>28‐day washout period. Horses were examined and scored prior to and after the completion of each treatment. Histopathology was performed on four horses. Owners kept daily diaries of observations.ResultsThe herbal spray significantly reduced the severity of all assessed parameters (pruritus, excoriations, lichenification and alopecia; P < 0.05) compared with baseline values (pretreatment) and with placebo. Owners reported improvement of pruritus in 19/20 horses (95%) with complete resolution in 17 horses (85%) following treatment. Skin biopsies showed resolution of orthokeratosis in 4/4 horses, reduced thickness of the stratum spinosum in 2/4 horses and complete resolution of histopathological abnormalities in 1/4 horses after treatment, compared with either no change or deterioration of histopathologic lesions after placebo. No side effects were observed.ConclusionsThe tested herbal spray may be an effective treatment for the management of equine IBH.
Palaeogene stratigraphy and chronology of the western Sivas Basin, central Anatolia (Turkey): Tectono‐sedimentary evolution of a well‐preserved basin along the northern Neotethys suture zone
Authors: Darin Michael H. , Umhoefer Paul J. 
Published: August 2020

AbstractThe Sivas Basin overlaps the northern Neotethys suture zone in central Anatolia (Turkey) and contains a ca. 12‐km thick succession of Cenozoic strata that provides an exceptional record of major tectonic transitions from subduction to continental assembly and tectonic escape. Consensus regarding the tectonic and palaeogeographic evolution of this segment of the Arabia‐Eurasia collision zone has been hindered by uncertainty in the tectonic setting of the early (Palaeogene) Sivas Basin, which has been variably interpreted as a remnant ocean, forearc, foreland, wedge‐top or intracontinental extensional basin. Here we integrate new geologic mapping (>5,000 km2), stratigraphy, facies analysis and U‐Pb geochronology from the western Sivas Basin to produce a detailed time‐stratigraphic framework and a refined Palaeogene tectono‐sedimentary model for the Sivas Basin. Earliest marine sedimentation occurred during the Maastrichtian‐Palaeocene in a remnant ocean setting due to incomplete closure of the northern Neotethys Ocean. Rapid accumulation of >2 km of basin floor turbidites during the middle to late Eocene reflect a transition to a foreland setting. A major late Eocene unconformity (ca. 38–34 Ma) coincides with the initiation of the north‐vergent southern Sivas fold‐thrust belt, which inverted and structurally partitioned the basin into a southern wedge‐top and a northern evaporitic foreland basin; the entire basin was dominantly nonmarine after this unconformity. Published palaeomagnetic data integrated with a newly discovered tuff dated at 31.9 Ma reveal that the 2.8‐km thick Altinyayla Formation was deposited from ca. 34 to 26 Ma in an unconfined braided fluvial system. Close stratigraphic correlations between the western, central and northern Sivas Basin suggest that the entire basin evolved from a remnant ocean to peripheral retro‐foreland basin during the middle to late Eocene, and finally a fragmented foreland basin since the Oligocene. This general evolution may be a characteristic of such sedimentary basins formed on suture zones across Anatolia and in other collisional orogens globally.

Published: August 2020

AbstractThe Greater Caucasus orogen on the southern margin of Eurasia is hypothesized to be a young collisional system and may present an opportunity to probe the structural, sedimentary and geodynamic effects of continental collision. We present detrital zircon U‐Pb age data from the Caucasus region that constrain changes in sediment routing and source exposure during the late Cenozoic convergence and collision between the Greater Caucasus orogen and the Lesser Caucasus, an arc terrane on the lower plate of the system. During Oligocene to Middle Miocene time, following the initiation of deformation within the Greater Caucasus, marine sandstones and shales were deposited between the Greater and Lesser Caucasus, and detrital zircon age data suggest no mixing of Greater Caucasus and Lesser Caucasus detritus. During Middle to Late Miocene time, Greater Caucasus detritus was deposited onto the Lesser Caucasus basin margin, and terrestrial, largely conglomeratic, sedimentation began between the Greater and Lesser Caucasus. Around 5.3 Ma, upper plate exhumation rates increased and shortening migrated to pro‐ and retro‐wedge fold‐thrust belts, coinciding with the initiation of foreland basin erosion. Sediment composition, provenance and structural data from the orogen together suggest the existence of a wide (230–280 km) marine basin that was progressively closed during Oligocene to Late Miocene time, probably by subduction/lithospheric underthrusting beneath the Greater Caucasus, followed by initiation of collision between the Lesser Caucasus arc terrane and the Greater Caucasus in Late Miocene to Pliocene time. The pace of the transition from hypothesized subduction to collision in the Caucasus is consistent with predictions from numerical modeling for a system with moderate convergence rates (<13 mm/yr) and hot lower plate continental lithosphere. Basement crystallization histories implied by our detrital zircon age data suggest the presence of two pre‐Jurassic sutures between stable Eurasia and the Lesser Caucasus, which likely guided later deformation.
Rate of environmental change across scales in ecology

Published: August 2020

ABSTRACTThe rate of change (RoC) of environmental drivers matters: biotic and abiotic components respond differently when faced with a fast or slow change in their environment. This phenomenon occurs across spatial scales and thus levels of ecological organization. We investigated the RoC of environmental drivers in the ecological literature and examined publication trends across ecological levels, including prevalent types of evidence and drivers. Research interest in environmental driver RoC has increased over time (particularly in the last decade), however, the amount of research and type of studies were not equally distributed across levels of organization and different subfields of ecology use temporal terminology (e.g. ‘abrupt’ and ‘gradual’) differently, making it difficult to compare studies. At the level of individual organisms, evidence indicates that responses and underlying mechanisms are different when environmental driver treatments are applied at different rates, thus we propose including a time dimension into reaction norms. There is much less experimental evidence at higher levels of ecological organization (i.e. population, community, ecosystem), although theoretical work at the population level indicates the importance of RoC for evolutionary responses. We identified very few studies at the community and ecosystem levels, although existing evidence indicates that driver RoC is important at these scales and potentially could be particularly important for some processes, such as community stability and cascade effects. We recommend shifting from a categorical (e.g. abrupt versus gradual) to a quantitative and continuous (e.g. °C/h) RoC framework and explicit reporting of RoC parameters, including magnitude, duration and start and end points to ease cross‐scale synthesis and alleviate ambiguity. Understanding how driver RoC affects individuals, populations, communities and ecosystems, and furthermore how these effects can feed back between levels is critical to making improved predictions about ecological responses to global change drivers. The application of a unified quantitative RoC framework for ecological studies investigating environmental driver RoC will both allow cross‐scale synthesis to be accomplished more easily and has the potential for the generation of novel hypotheses.
Counting to Infinity: Does Learning the Syntax of the Count List Predict Knowledge That Numbers Are Infinite?
Authors: Chu Junyi , Cheung Pierina , Schneider Rose M. , Sullivan Jessica , Barner David 
Published: August 2020

AbstractBy around the age of 5½, many children in the United States judge that numbers never end, and that it is always possible to add 1 to a set. These same children also generally perform well when asked to label the quantity of a set after one object is added (e.g., judging that a set labeled “five” should now be “six”). These findings suggest that children have implicit knowledge of the “successor function”: Every natural number, n, has a successor, n + 1. Here, we explored how children discover this recursive function, and whether it might be related to discovering productive morphological rules that govern language‐specific counting routines (e.g., the rules in English that represent base‐10 structure). We tested 4‐ and 5‐year‐old children’s knowledge of counting with three tasks, which we then related to (a) children’s belief that 1 can always be added to any number (the successor function) and (b) their belief that numbers never end (infinity). Children who exhibited knowledge of a productive counting rule were significantly more likely to believe that numbers are infinite (i.e., there is no largest number), though such counting knowledge was not directly linked to knowledge of the successor function, per se. Also, our findings suggest that children as young as 4 years of age are able to implement rules defined over their verbal count list to generate number words beyond their spontaneous counting range, an insight which may support reasoning over their acquired verbal count sequence to infer that numbers never end.

AbstractBackground and purposeSpain has been one of the countries more heavily stricken by SARS‐CoV‐2, which has had huge implications for stroke care. The aim was to analyse the impact of the COVID‐19 epidemic outbreak on reperfusion therapies for acute ischaemic stroke in the northwest of Spain.MethodsThis was a Spanish multicentre retrospective observational study based on data from tertiary hospitals of the NORDICTUS network. All patients receiving reperfusion therapy for ischaemic stroke between 30 December 2019 and 3 May 2020 were recorded, and their baseline, clinical and radiological characteristics, extra‐ and intra‐hospital times of action, Code Stroke activation pathway, COVID‐19 status, reperfusion rate, and short‐term outcome before and after the setting of the emergency state were analysed.ResultsA total of 796 patients received reperfusion therapies for ischaemic stroke. There was a decrease in the number of patients treated per week (46.5 patients per week vs. 39.0 patients per week, P = 0.043) and a delay in out‐of‐hospital (95.0 vs. 110.0 min, P = 0.001) and door‐to‐needle times (51.0 vs. 55.0, P = 0.038). Patients receiving endovascular therapy obtained less successful reperfusion rates (92.9% vs. 86.6%, P = 0.016). COVID‐19 patients had more in‐hospital mortality.ConclusionA decrease in the number of patients benefiting from reperfusion therapies was found, with a delay in out‐of‐hospital and door‐to‐needle times and worse reperfusion rates in northwest Spain. COVID‐19 patients had more in‐hospital mortality.

AbstractIn the process of pig genetic improvement, different commercial breeds have been bred for the same purpose, improving meat production. Most of the economic traits, such as growth and fertility, have been selected similarly despite the discrepant selection pressure, which is known as parallel selection. Here, 28 whole‐genome sequencing data of Danish large white pigs with an approximately 25‐fold depth each were generated, resulting in about 12 million high‐quality SNPs for each individual. Combined with the sequencing data of 27 Duroc and 23 European wild boars, we investigated the parallel selection of Danish large white and Duroc pigs using two complementary methods, Fst and iHS. In total, 67 candidate regions were identified as the signatures of parallel selection. The genes in candidate regions of parallel selection were mainly associated with sensory perception, growth rate, and body size. Further functional annotation suggested that the striking consistency of the terms may be caused by the polygenetic basis of quantitative traits, and revealing the complex genetic basis of parallel selection. Besides, some unique terms were enriched in population‐specific selection regions, such as the limb development‐related terms enriched in Duroc‐specific selection regions, suggesting unique selections of breed‐specific selected traits. These results will help us better understand the parallel selection process of different breeds. Moreover, we identified several potential causal SNPs that may contribute to the pig genetic breeding process.
