The Future of Unions
Authors: Hyman Richard 
Published: March 2019

For some 20 years now, it has been common to refer to a crisis of trade unionism. What the future holds for labor movements-or indeed, whether they still have a future-seems increasingly uncertain. For many critics (academic observers as well as trade unionists themselves), unions in most countries appear as victims of external forces outside their control, and often also of their own conservative inertia. In this article, I explore, schematically and with incautious generalizations, the pathways from path to present to future. An important focus is the choices to be made in terms of who unions represent, what interests they emphasize, how they are constituted as organizations, and how they mobilize resources for action. Depuis environ 20 ans, il est courant de parler d'une crise du syndicalisme. Ce que l’avenir réserve aux mouvements syndicaux est de plus en plus incertain. Il est même de plus en plus incertain que ces mouvements ont encore un avenir. De nombreux observateurs universitaires et syndicalistes trouvent que, dans la plupart des pays, les syndicats semblent être des victimes de forces indépendantes de leur volonté, et souvent de leur propre inertie conservatrice également. Dans cet article, j’examine les cheminements passés, présents et futurs des syndicats, schématiquement et en me fondant sur des généralisations peu prudentes. Je mets un accent important sur les choix à effectuer au sujet des personnes que représentent les syndicats, des intérêts qu’ils défendent le plus, de leur constitution en organisations et de la façon dont ils canalisent les ressources dans l’action.
Learning in Solidarity: A Union Approach to Worker-Centred Literacy
Authors: Levine Tamara 
Published: March 2019

The article introduces the reader to developments with unions and literacy, a labour activity that is gaining a toe-hold on today’s union agenda. The historical role of unions and literacy is explored, as well as its relationship to more traditional labour education. Some tough questions are asked about who is participating in union activity and who is left out, and how literacy has the potential to reach many union members who are not yet active. The article takes the reader inside a class of night cleaners. Building on the the real situation of a worker/participant who has been injured, the instructor facilitates a learning process that builds literacy skills while exploring avenues for collective recourse. While union-based literacy challenges many traditional assumptions and practices both in the workplace and within the labour movement, it is gaining ground and finding resonance within a growing number of Canadian unions, federations and the Canadian Labour Congress. With a popular education approach that builds on the Latin American and other Third World experience, literacy is revealed as an important metaphor for inclusion and democratization. L’article présente l’évolution de la participation syndicale à l’alphabétisation, qui commence à s’inscrire au programme syndical. Il traite du rôle historique des syndicats en matière d’alphabétisation et des relations entre celle-ci et les formes plus traditionnelles d’éducation syndicale. De difficiles questions sont posées au sujet des personnes qui participent à l’activité syndicale et de celles qui en sont exclues ainsi que des moyens par lesquels l’alphabétisation peut permettre à de nombreux membres qui ne sont pas encore actifs de s’impliquer dans leurs syndicats. L’auteure fait découvrir la réalité d’une classe de personnel de nettoyage de nuit. En se fondant sur un cas vécu où une personne participant au cours s’est blessée, l’animatrice favorise un apprentissage permettant à la classe de développer ses capacités de base en examinant des recours collectifs possibles. L’alphabétisation axée sur les travailleurs et les travailleuses remet en question de nombreuses hypothèses et pratiques traditionnellement employées en milieu de travail et au sein du mouvement syndical, mais elle trouve de plus en plus d’appuis et gagne du terrain au sein d’un nombre croissant de syndicats et de fédérations du travail du Canada ainsi qu’au Congrès du travail du Canada. Dans le cadre d’une approche d’éducation populaire s’appuyant fond sur l’expérience acquise en Amérique latine et dans d’autres parties du tiers monde, l’alphabétisation constitue une importante métaphore de l’inclusion et de la démocratisation.
SIA: Secure Intermittent Architecture for Off-the-Shelf Resource-Constrained Microcontrollers
Authors: Dinu Daniel , Santhana Krishnan Archanaa , Schaumont Patrick 
Published: March 2019

Recent advancements in energy-harvesting techniques provide an alternative to batteries for resource-constrained IoT devices and lead to a new computing paradigm, the intermittent computing model. In this model, a software module continues its execution from where it left off when an energy shortage occurred. Enforcing security of an intermittent software module is challenging because its power-off state has to be protected from a malicious adversary in addition to its power-on state, while the security mechanisms put in place must have a low overhead on the performance, resource consumption, and cost of a device.In this paper, we propose SIA (Secure Intermittent Architecture), a security architecture for resource-constrained IoT devices. SIA leverages low-cost security features available in commercial off-the-shelf microcontrollers to protect both the power-on and power-off state of an intermittent software module. Therefore, SIA enables a host of secure intermittent computing applications such as self-attestation, remote attestation, and secure communication. Moreover, our architecture provides confidentiality and integrity guarantees to an intermittent computing module at no cost compared to previous approaches in the literature that impose significant overheads. The salient characteristic of SIA is that it does not require any hardware modifications, and hence, it can be directly applied to existing IoT devices.We implemented and evaluated SIA on a resource-constrained IoT device based on an MSP430 processor. Besides being secure, SIA is simple and efficient. We confirm the feasibility of SIA for resource-constrained IoT devices with experimental results of several intermittent computing applications. Our prototype implementation outperforms by two to three orders of magnitude the secure intermittent computing solution of Suslowicz et al. presented at IGSC 2018.

Published: March 2019

Very High Resolution Satellite Image (VHRSI) data for Indonesian Government license is required by ministries/agencies, TNI, police, and local government to support national programs. But Indonesia did not have a VHRSI data recipient facility to directly acquire this data. In accordance with Law 21/2013 on Space, LAPAN is mandate to provide high resolution satellite data, and based on a roadmap for provision of satellite data in 2017, LAPAN will provide a VHRSI data reception facility through direct receiving system (DRS). This will be more efficient than other methods in providing the data. Priority provision of satellite data is for acquiring Pleiades and TerraSAR-X operating in the frequency range 8 GHz (X-Band). Therefore, to receive both data, it requires antenna subsystem with optimum coverage throughout Indonesia. Parameters to obtain the minimum antenna specifications include Free Space Loss (FSL), Carrier to Noise Ratio (C/No) and Antenna Gain to Noise Temperature (G/T). The calculation of G/T antenna is done for both satellites based on satellite parameters and analysis of antenna product availability in the market. Based on the calculation of satellite parameters shows that the minimum G/T value with the elevation of 5 degrees is 27.71 dB/K for Pleiades data reception and the minimum G/T value of 26.10 dB/K for the TerraSAR-X data reception. In general, the minimum G/T value for receiving the Pleiades and TerraSAR-X data is at 28 dB/K. While based on the calculation of antenna products availability in the market is require G/T value of 33.45 dB /K for the elevation of 5 degrees with a diameter of 7.5 mm antenna. This can be conclude that the antenna products meets the minimum requirements specification and to receive both satellite data. However, both calculation for the antenna subsystem still will be evaluated further in order to be directly installed at Parepare Remote Earth Station (SPBJ), South Sulawesi.

Determinant Factors of Sustainability of Tea Smallholder Agroindustry (Case Study in Barokah Farmers Group at Ciwidey Sub District Bandung Regency) [Beberapa Faktor Penentu Keberlanjutan Usaha Agroindustri Teh Rakyat (Studi Kasus di Kelompok Tani Barokah Kecamatan CiwideyKabupaten Bandung)]
Authors: Trimo Lucyana , Hidayat Syarif 
Published: March 2019

At present the number of agro-industry of tea smallholder actors in West Java is decreasing, for example, in Cianjur District, at Sub-districts: Sukanagara only has six out of 11 units, Takokak there are only 11 of 38 units, and The Campaka has no more agroindustry of tea smallholder that was established even though a few years ago there were three units (Plantation Office of Cianjur Regency, 2015). These conditions also occur in Bandung's Ciwidey District, even now only the Barokah Farmers Group's agroindustry still survives (from the four agro-industries). Some determinants of the persistence of the agro-industry of tea smallholder can come from internal and external factors concerned. The research technique used is a case study. Determination of informants was done purposively, namely: Plantation Service staff, chairman and deputy chairman of the farmer group, General Manager of the tea agro-industry of the people, supplier farmers, and Village apparatus. Secondary data is collected from existing documents in relevant agencies and journals. Data and information obtained were analyzed descriptively. The research results showed that the sustainability of the existence of the agro-industry of tea smallholder was determined by several factors, namely: the ability of the people's tea agro-industry actors in 1) fulfilling the supply of raw materials (tea tops), 2) managing the finances owned, 3) managing the organization, 4) doing product diversification, 5) expanding information networks and connectivity with relevant agencies, 6) continuity in market demand, and 7) continuity in maintaining product quality.

The value of consultative democracy can not be overestimated, especially considering the local and supra-local administration gradually bringing the resident closer to self-government communities. Therefore, this issue is important and still requires improvement in the area of mutual relations between self-government authorities and residents of communes, districts/departments, voivodeships/regions. The search for common relations in participating in the management
of the self-government community is a current challenge facing the territorial self-government in both legal orders. The comparative perspective in the scope of the functioning of commissions and consultative bodies of an obligatory nature is aimed at getting acquainted with the consultative administration in the territorial self-government in both legal orders and proposing directions of changes to Polish legal regulations in this area to improve the consultative dialogue and its normative tools.

Published: March 2019

The study aims at examining the impact of investment in human resource development (HRD) on the financial performance of the banking sector of Bangladesh. Using the economic data as well as survey data collected from purposively selected 120 bank executives of 20 private commercial banks of Bangladesh. The study through regression models finds that there is a significant positive correlations between HRD investment (in salaries and allowances, provident fund and gratuity, bonus and incentives, staff welfare and training, workshop, and seminar) and financial performance of the sample banks. Though, training is one of the important HRD indicators, the lowest investment was made in this sector by the sample banks. The findings of the study may be useful for bankers, policymakers, HR professionals, and the stakeholders of all types of organizations regardless of the geographical boundary. Finally, further investigations on manufacturing and other service sectors through case study, focus groups, and longitudinal study are also suggested.

Authors: Hoque Nazamul , Khan Mohammad Aktaruzzaman , Bhuiyan Mohammad Zahid Hossain 
Published: March 2019

This study examines the contribution of CSR programs of multinational enterprises (MNEs) operating in Bangladesh in the poverty alleviation. The authors employed a mixed-method approach to collect qualitative data by interviewing executives of ten MNEs while for quantitative data annual reports, websites, and articles were consulted. Results depicted insignificant contribution of MNEs in poverty alleviation by their corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives. The average contribution of sample MNEs stand at only 0.52 per cent of profits after tax to CSR programs, ranging from 2.96% to 0.15%. The study reveals that most of the MNEs are not contributing as per their financial capacity and they lack a policy of donating a reasonable portion of profit to CSR along with poverty alleviation priority. The study suggests that government of Bangladesh must act sincerely and deliberately for active involvement of MNEs in CSR programs helpful for poverty alleviation by necessary policy framework and motivational supports with a view to accelerate the poverty alleviation movement for a happy, prosperous, and progressive Bangladesh.

Authors: Hassan Md Mahmudul 
Published: March 2019

The Holy Qur‟an encompasses the comprehensive code for mankind to live a rewarding life in this world, to rescue from the Jahannam and to enter the Jannah in the Hereafter. Īmān, Islām, taqwā, kufr, shirk, and nifāq are, the six significant terms, used in the Noble Qur‟an frequently. All of them represent the characteristics of human beings. The possessors of these characters will go to their eternal destination; the Jannah or Jahannam. The Jannah is the aftermath of īmān, Islam and taqwā. On the other hand, kufr, shirk, and nifāq lead to the Jahannam. This study intends to present the definitions and examples of these six terms according to the Qur‟anic statement, and then shed light on the impact of each character on human life quoting the evidence from the Holy Qur‟an and the Traditions of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The possessors of these six remarkable terms are entitled successively as mu'min, muslim, muttaqī to be rewarded Jannah and kafīr, mushrik, and munāfiq to be punished in Jahannam.
