Socio-Cultural Support For The Sustainability Of Food Production And Consumption In Highland Communities In Sinjai District, South Sulawesi Province.
Full text linkSocio-culture is increasingly recognized as an important part towards sustainable food production and consumption. This evolution is reflected in the fact that socio-culture is now generally referred to as one of the main drivers of sustainable food production and consumption. This study focuses on socio-cultural aspects in relation to the food production subsystem and food consumption subsystem in highland communities in West Sinjai District, Sinjai Regency, South Sulawesi Province. Using a qualitative approach, case study method, with data collection techniques, in-depth interviews, full observation, documentation and triangulation. So that it can see in depth the socio-cultural reality of the highland community. The socio-cultural apparatus is one of the supporting factors in the realization of the sustainability of food production and consumption in highland communities. The socio-cultural apparatus is one of the supporting factors in realizing the sustainability of food production and consumption in upland communities. The socio-cultural component in the food production of highland communities strongly emphasizes the value of togetherness, the value of mutual cooperation and religious values. These values are implemented into food production activities from land preparation to harvesting such as; "Appada Elo"; "Appatinro Bine"; "Passibaling"; "Ganre Pare Beru". The socio-cultural component of food consumption in highland communities also emphasizes religious values (a symbol of gratitude to the creator and getting closer to their ancestors), the value of togetherness (serving food to others as a form of respect and appreciation) and prestige values (types of food such as: local varieties of brown rice). These values are wrapped in community norms that have been maintained for generations as an effort to maintain the sustainability of community food production and consumptio
Transfer of Land Ownership and Marginalization as Impact of Tourism Industry
Full text linkTourism has emerged as one of the foremost industries experiencing rapid growth. Over the past few decades, the sector has witnessed continuous development in Indonesia, evident from the increasing number of foreign tourist arrivals. The rapid growth of tourism in various regions has undeniably yielded positive impacts on both investment and the overall economy. However, it has also given rise to a multitude of challenges that need to be addressed. One of the challenges pertains to the issue of land ownership, specifically concerning the acquisition of residents' lands surrounding tourist destinations by foreign individuals, which is strictly prohibited under Indonesian law. Therefore, a comparative analysis between Indonesia and Malaysia is needed to identify regulation problems to potentially increase cases of legal smuggling of foreign land ownership transfers. This study explains the practice of land ownership by foreigners in the Pesisir Barat District of Lampung, along with the associated problems analyzed through a socio-legal approach. The results show that tourism undeniably benefits the economic sector, and resulted in legal infringements concerning land ownership, leading to the marginalization and displacement of local communities. This study adopts a comparative law method, elucidating the respective provisions of both Indonesia and Malaysia, supplemented by a normative juridical approach to examine legal principles, regulations, and systematics through the examination of relevant library materials. Consequently, it is essential to enhance the regulations surrounding the transfer of land to foreigners, including Foreign Citizens and Foreign Legal Entities with representatives in Indonesia, emulating the stringent land tenure restrictions imposed by Malaysia on foreign nationals
Porosity Correlation to The Compressive Strength of Porous Concrete
Full text linkTimber is one of the oldest construction material used by human since the dawn of civilization. The use of timber in construction has slowly diminished since the inventions of concrete and steel materials in the last few centuries. Since then, timber has been connoted with construction material that has issues with weak strength performance, fire endurance, and long-term durability. After more than a century of unpleasant perceptions, renaissance of timber in construction has started near the end of 20th century after the re-inventions of massive timber elements that have similar performance as concrete when it is used in building constructions. Particular products that have gained attention recently from architects and structural engineers are glue-laminated timber (glulam) beams and cross-laminated timber (CLT) plates due to its high strength-to-weight ratio and flexibility for use in various structural elements of multi-story buildings. With the introduction of performance-based building codes in Europe and North America, the use of massive timber elements in tall buildings has received wide acceptance and has been in competition mode with traditional reinforced concrete material. The main objective of this study is to review performances of massive timber elements in various building applications in terms of strength, cost-competitiveness, and last but not least sustainability impacts including its contribution to carbon neutrality effort. Historical and literature reviews will be given to demonstrate feasibility of timber and its massive elements for building applications with considering reinforced concrete as the benchmark. Challenges and opportunities of timber use in construction will be discussed including potential use in hybrid system in which engineers can combine material constituents used in forming structural components or systems to reach optimum performance without ignoring sustainability constraints. It is expected that the outcomes of this study will encourage architects and engineers to use more timber globally as alternative sustainable construction material beyond the regions commonly utilizing timber as construction materials for generations. Â
Nutritional Status of Toddler Children in Cikoang Village, Mangarabombang District, Takalar District
Full text linkNutritional status is the end result of the balance between the food that enters the body (nutrient input) and the body's need (nutrient output) for those nutrients. In other words, the state of the body as a result of food consumption and the use of nutrients. Nutrient requirements are determined by many factors, including: basal metabolic rate, growth rate, physical activity, and relative factors, namely: ingestion, differences in absorption, utilization, and differences in excretion and destruction of nutrients in the body. A sample of 82 children aged between 2.5 and 5.0 years and 114 households representing adulthood was observed in two villages with Maudu' rituals, and 99 and 134 households in two villages without Maudu' rituals. The research was conducted in Cikoang Village, Takalar District. The results of this study indicate that the nutritional status of children under five in Cikoang Village is not good and needs attention from related parties in helping to improve child nutrition in Cikoang Village
Plastic Waste Management in Indonesia: Current Legal Approaches and Future Perspectives
Full text linkThe ever-increasing domestic consumption of plastic products and materials has forced Indonesia to propel forward the means and approaches in dealing with their disposals. Despite the presence of numerous legal instruments serving as basis justifying actions to deal with plastic waste, Indonesia is still nowhere near success in tackling the issue of mismanagement. This article is devoted to normatively analyze various legal approaches used to govern plastic waste management Indonesia, and to unravel issues related to such approaches. It is carried out using normative-legal research methods in which various legal instruments and other secondary legal materials are analyzed descriptively to point out the emerging legal issues. The main findings reveal that laws and regulations as well as public policies that serve as legal basis and approach to deal with plastic waste governance in Indonesia still possess some weaknesses. Further examinations suggest the needs for improvement in some legal aspects from which some new perspectives could then be shaped to envisage future actions
The Presence of the Defense Lawyer in Vietnam’s Criminal Justice System: Substantive or Cosmetic?
Full text linkDefense lawyers play an important role in protecting the rights and interests of the accused, contributing to upholding justice and reducing the number of wrongful convictions. In Vietnam, in accordance with the current Criminal Procedure Code of 2015, defense lawyers have been given more and more rights to perform legal defense activities. However, defense lawyers are still considered to be passive participants in criminal proceedings, classified under the “judicial complementary” group. The right of lawyers to collect evidence is restricted. Furthermore, other rights have not been fully implemented. The number of lawyers compared to the entire population remains low, and there are very few criminal cases that include the participation of defense lawyers. These circumstances beg the question of whether the presence of defense lawyers in Vietnam’s criminal justice system is substantive or merely a cosmetic façade intended to improve Vietnam’s global image. This paper seeks to answer this question by analyzing the results of surveys conducted with Vietnamese lawyers. Moreover, it provides some recommendations to strengthen the role of defense lawyers in the criminal justice system of Vietnam
Human Right to Access Public Information: The Experience of Ukraine and the Practice of the ECtHR
Full text linkThe guarantee of ensuring the right to access public information is an important condition and criterion for functioning in a legal democratic state. In addition, realizing the right to access public information is essential for preventing and detecting corruption. The purpose of this work is to analyze international legal rules and standards, as well as to provide some examples of the practice of the European Court of Human Rights in the context of the implementation of the right to access public information. It has been established that the right to access public information is a component of the human right to information and is a fundamental constitutional human right. The existing practice of the European Court of Human Rights confirms the importance of protecting the right of access to public information. It indicates to states that it is mandatory to comply with it, the expediency of applying an effective system of control measures to implement the right under study. The paper analyzes theoretical and legal approaches to understanding the human right to access public information and determines its place in human rights. An analysis of the practice of the European Court of Human Rights regarding the right to access public information made it possible to identify existing shortcomings in the legislation of the Member States and Ukraine and to find ways and methods for solving such problems and prospects for preventing such violations in the future, as well as the possibility of applying the decisions of the European Court of Human Rights to improve the current domestic legislation in this area
Critical Legal Reading of World Anti-Doping Agency’s Gene Doping Guidance
Full text linkThe genetic barrier negatively affected competitive athletic performance until the advent of gene therapy and genetic manipulation, which cast doubt on and impacted the legitimacy of sporting events. At that a critical point, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) interfered in such experimentation and application with a serious attempt to curb the problem and set things back on track with the healthiest standards in light of bioethics. However, the major problem that the agency has encountered and which this legal study wants to raise, and address is the legal consequences that result from the lack of a reliable method that provides sufficient evidence and definitive answers to confirm whether cellular and gene doping are occurring or not. This is study aims to demonstrate that the procedures for accusing players of using genetic modification and genetic change techniques are incorrect and insufficient and may be harmful. The suspicion must be interpreted in favour of the accused (i.e., the athlete) in accordance with the general principles of penal codification. However, some of the Agency's procedures are not compatible with the provisions of international treaties, not to mention they conflict with the Punitive legislation of numerous countries

The Effect of Size Ratios of the Triangular Disturbance Cylinder to the Square Cylinder to the Flow Drag of Tandem Objects
Full text linkAirflow drag from the interaction of tandem objects is one of the main factors that must be considered in the design of building and transport vehicles. In order to reduce the air flow drag, a disturbance object is usually added in front of the tandem structures. The geometry of the disturbance object that is quite good at reducing drag is a triangular cylindrical shape. The research aims to analyze the effect of the disturbance size ratio in the form of a triangular cylinder to the drag of fluid flow across square cylinders which are arranged in tandem. The methodology used in this research is experimental. The results obtained indicate that of the seven variations in the ratio of the distance M/D for d/D=0.033, d/D=0.067 and d/D=0.100, the ratio M/D=0.35 has the lowest drag coefficient value compared to the ones of other variation at the value of 0.69, while for d/D=0.67, the lowest drag coefficient is obtained at M/D=0.25, amounting to 0.67. When compared to the three variations of disturbance objects, it shows that d/D=0.067 has the lowest drag coefficient value compared to the variation of d/D=0.033 and d/D=0.100.  Â
