A Cross-National Analysis of State Institutional Authority Disputes
Get PDFThe distribution of authority among state institutions is a fundamental component of any governmental framework, as it helps prevent jurisdictional overlaps that could lead to institutional conflicts. When such conflicts over authority do occur, it becomes imperative to have a mechanism in place for their resolution. This study is designed to explore and analyze the comparative regulatory structures for resolving authority disputes among state institutions, as outlined by the legislation in Indonesia, the United States, Germany, and Canada. Furthermore, the research aims to identify the characteristics of disputes concerning state institutional authority and suggest optimal regulatory solutions for their resolution. Utilizing a qualitative and descriptive research approach, this study will clarify the regulatory frameworks for dispute resolution among state institutions, as defined by the current legislation in each country. Each framework is characterized by unique institutions and methods for resolving disputes. The findings reveal that the German Constitutional Court holds the most comprehensive jurisdiction, covering all state institutions in Germany, both at the central and regional levels. In terms of procedural aspects, the legal framework for resolving authority disputes in Germany is more detailed than those in Indonesia, the United States, or Canada, thereby promoting greater transparency and accountability in the dispute resolution process in Germany
Study of Corossion Potential in Subsoil Resistivity
Get PDFThe degradation of a substance or its qualities as a result of a reaction with the environment is known as corrosion. Corrosion is a natural process that can take place in almost any substance, but it is most commonly linked with metal. The resistivity of the soil is the one variable that has the most significant impact on the pace of corrosion. Metal that is buried in soils with a low resistivity will, in most cases, become anodic, whereas metal that is buried in soils with a high resistivity will, in most cases, become cathodic. In order to prevent and protect the corrosion of buried metallic structures by underground soil, a soil resistivity field study carried out at Merauke District. The results of the research and interpretation of soil resistivity data that have been carried out can be said that the subsoil structure of the three measurements was identified as topsoil, silty soils, sandy soils, and clayey soils. Sandy and clayey soils that have low soil resistivity values between 2.22 – 11.3 Ωm have the potential to be highly corroded. Topsoil which has a high soil resistivity of 590.0 Ωm can pose a danger if the existing mud causes the water content of topsoil to increase
Linking Reinforcement Strategies to Employee Performance: Evidence from an Indonesian HRM Case Study
Get PDFThis study investigates the influence of incentive, reward, and punishment mechanisms on employee performance within the context of PT. Ecotropika Multikonsultan, a leading environmental consultancy firm in Indonesia. Drawing on reinforcement theory and strategic human resource management frameworks, the research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of both positive and corrective motivational tools in enhancing workplace outcomes. The study employs a quantitative survey approach, utilizing structured questionnaires distributed to 64 employees, followed by multiple linear regression analysis to assess variable influence. The findings indicate that all three factors—rewards, incentives, and punishment—have a significant and positive impact on employee performance, with reward exerting the strongest influence. These results underscore the importance of integrating both motivational and disciplinary strategies within HRM to drive performance. The study contributes to the literature by offering empirical insights into the nuanced application of behavioral reinforcement in a real-world organizational setting. While the scope is limited to a single institution, the implications are broadly relevant for organizations aiming to foster performance-driven cultures. This research provides actionable guidance for HR professionals and organizational leaders on how to optimize workforce potential through strategically designed incentive and control systems
Linking Strategic Planning Participation to Budgetary Slack: Evidence from Procedural Justice and Affective Commitment
Get PDFThis study explores how managerial involvement in strategic planning influences the tendency to create budgetary slack, focusing on the mediating roles of perceived procedural justice and affective commitment. Addressing a gap in the budgeting literature—which often prioritizes participative budgeting over strategic-level involvement—the research surveyed mid- to upper-level managers across various industries in Indonesia who were engaged in both strategic planning and budgeting activities. Using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), five hypothesized relationships were tested. The results reveal that participation in strategic planning significantly enhances managers’ perceptions of procedural justice and their affective commitment to the organization. In turn, these two factors negatively affect the inclination to create budgetary slack, indicating that fairness and emotional attachment play critical roles in curbing opportunistic behavior during budgeting. All hypotheses were statistically supported, reinforcing the theoretical framework. By integrating social exchange theory and self-determination theory, this study contributes to the management accounting field by providing a deeper understanding of the ethical dynamics underlying budgeting practices. Practically, the findings suggest that organizations should embed inclusive and fair processes in strategic decision-making to foster commitment and reduce dysfunctional budgeting behaviors
The Influence of Halal Factors and Behavioral Constructs on Culinary Business Governance in South Sulawesi
No full textThis study examines the influence of halal awareness, halal certification, and behavioral factors on the governance of halal culinary businesses in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. With the increasing emphasis on halal certification following national regulatory mandates, business actors—particularly micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs)—continue to face challenges such as distrust in certification bodies, the complexity of certification procedures, and limited access to accurate information. Grounded in the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), this research introduces trust in halal certification and halal products as a mediating variable. A quantitative approach was employed using a survey of 400 halal culinary entrepreneurs from major cities in South Sulawesi, including Makassar, Gowa, Maros, and Parepare. Data were collected using a 5-point Likert scale questionnaire and analyzed through Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS software. The findings are expected to identify key determinants influencing the sustainability of halal culinary businesses and provide practical recommendations for policymakers and stakeholders to enhance trust and improve governance effectiveness within Indonesia's growing halal economy
In Vitro Evaluation of The Antifungal Activity of Breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis) Leaves Extract Againts Puccinia arachidis, Causative Agent of Groundnut Rust
Get PDFBreadfruit (Artocarpus altilis) leaves contain several antimicrobial properties such as saponins, hydrocyanic acid, polyphenols, acetylcholine, potassium, tannin, phenol, riboflavin, and flavonoids. Phenol is a compound found in plants that causes pesticide effects. Previous studies have demonstrated that breadfruit leaf extract contains phenol compounds with antimicrobial activity and can be used as a fungicide. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of breadfruit leaf extract on the growth inhibitory power and percentage inhibition of Puccinia arachidis spore germination as well as the best concentration of breadfruit leaf extract in inhibited the growth of Puccinia arachidis, an agent causing groundnut rust disease in peanut plants in food poisoning method. This study used a single factor CRD consisting of 5 treatment levels, namely k0(-) = negative control, k0(+) = positive control, k1 = 10 % extract concentration, k2 = extract concentration of 20 %, and k3 = extract concentration of 30 %. The results of this study indicate that the breadfruit leaf extract significantly affected Puccinia arachidis growth with the presence of percentage inhibition of Puccinia arachidis spore germination. The highest concentration of breadfruit leaf extract as a rust disease biofungicide (Puccinia arachidis) in peanut plants in vitro at a concentration of 30 %
The Proportionality Test Models of Competing Rights Cases in the Civil and Common Law Systems: Lesson to Learn for Indonesia
Get PDFThis research focuses on the Proportionality test model of Competing Rights in practice in civil law countries (Germany and South Korea) and the Common Law System (United States and Canada). The research method used is a normative legal research method with statutory, comparative, and case approaches. The results show that the proportionality test is the "ultimate rule of law," a fundamental benchmark in judicial review, and has become a global constitutionalism recognised and applied internationally. Its application is structured and systematic with four test stages, such as German, Canadian, and South Korean models. Meanwhile, it is unstructured in the United States, and there is only one analytical tool (balancing test). In the case of decision, the four stages are only sometimes applied, but according to the needs of the analysis. If, at the third stage (necessity/minimal impairment), it is found that the object being tested is contrary to the Constitution, then the argumentation focuses on that analysis of it. The fourth stage is used if the case is more complicated and requires analysing the balance of norms and legal values. Meanwhile, in the Indonesian Constitutional Court practice, there is a proportional analysis, but it is partial, unstructured, and unsystematic. Therefore, in the future, it is essential to develop an Indonesian model of the principle of proportionality under the values of Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution
Civil Law, Conflict of Laws, and Extraterritoriality in the European Supply Chain Due Diligence Law
Get PDFThis paper gives an overview of the new European Union’s Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), its relation to the German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (LkSG) from 2021, and the systematic background of both acts. The article contradicts criticism of the extraterritorial effects of the acts, underlining a legislative purpose as part of the national business law regarding fair competition and consumer protection besides the purpose of improving life conditions. The acts are part of an international socially responsible business law. The CSDDD is introducing a new specific civil liability provision. It also brings significant advancements in conflict-of-law principles by introducing mandatory liability norms that apply regardless of jurisdiction. Implementing due diligence obligations in complex international supply chains poses challenges for companies, requiring robust risk management systems and ongoing adjustments. This strict regulation must be balanced with the practical feasibility of Corporate Social Responsibility duties, and a reasonable allocation of responsibilities must take place without risking that the effect of the legislation will stay behind formalistic compliance requirements. The concept of organizational responsibility plays a core role in this balancing process
Politic Ecology and Sustainability of Arabica Coffee (Coffee Arabica L.) in Timor Leste
Get PDFBetween January 2021 and January 2022, research was conducted in Timor Leste's Liquica, Ermera, and Ainaro districts, representing lowland, moderate plains, and highland regions, respectively. The study aimed to identify ecological aspects of Arabica coffee cultivation and assess Timor Leste's sustainability and environmental politics. Using a case study method, the research employed mixed-methods, combining qualitative and quantitative approaches. Purposive sampling selected respondents from a pool of 180 coffee producers. The findings revealed a need for development and support for farmers, especially those aged 51 to 56, where 30% completed only elementary school. The political and ecological study significantly influenced social, community, and product responsibility factors (p < α 0.01) and had a considerable impact on environmental factors (p < α 0.05). However, labor and economic elements showed minimal impact. This research sheds light on crucial aspects of coffee cultivation sustainability in Timor Leste
Nickel Element Content Distribution in Laterite Deposits Based on Geochemistry Using the Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) Method
Get PDFAdministratively, the study area is located in the Sorowako Area, Nuha Sub-district, East Luwu District, South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. Inverse Distance Weighting is a method used to determine the distribution of Ni element, which is one of the geocomputation methods that uses the concept that the value at a location can be estimated based on how close the location is to existing measured points, with weights given based on the distance. The data used in this study is geochemical data from XRF analysis results on laterite samples in the study area. XRF analysis results show that the Ni content value in the limonite zone tends to be lower than in the saprolite zone, which is caused by the semi-mobile nature of the Ni element, so that the Ni element accumulates in the saprolite zone as a result of the enrichment process. The XRF method was used in the geochemical analysis of the laterite deposit samples, which showed high Ni content in the saprolite zone compared to the limonite zone. Ni distribution in the limonite zone is found in two classes of grade distribution, which are < 1.3% and 1.3% - 1.5%. While in the saprolite zone tends to be more varied, there are six classes of grade distribution, from grade values < 1.3% to > 2.25% distributed in the study area
