Diverity of Views on The Inequality of Men's Power Relations Over Women in The Practice of Polygamy in Indonesia
Get PDFPolygamy movement that often discredits women is increasingly taking a place in modern urban society. Polygamy has existed before Islam coming and became a legal practice which powered by the Quran after Islam coming. However, global values influence the mindset about polygamy such as Liberalist who totally reject polygamy whereas Muslims themselves (moderates and progressives) offer new ideas to tighten practice of it. Globalization not only brings view-contra but also reinforce polygamy such as Muslims urban (tend to be puritans) which developed due to the advance of technology and information that brings of textual and instant views on the Quran. Differences understanding in the community, have diverse implications for the perspective of gender equality, specifically power relations of male and female. This study aims to find out how the relation men's power over women in polygamy based on various views of the various groups above with using method literature study. Based on the research there are two groups which accept polygamy (fundamentalist and traditionalist) and group that rejects polygamy (moderate and liberalisr) while the position of women in a family basically has the same right, the condition of their position depending on family model and decision polygamy that taken by wife influenced by external condition which collects information and determines process of decision making
Synergy of Government and Society in Maximizing Food Security in Indonesia
Get PDFThe background of this research is the problem of low food security, namely the lack of food availability will have an impact on the difficulty of someone accessing food due to factors such as drought, economic instability, and scarcity of raw materials. One impact can lead to low levels of nutritional adequacy, decreased endurance and weakening of the level of intelligence, which will result in a lost generation that can hamper the development of the nation to progress. So that efforts are needed to overcome this problem such as food diversification, reducing imports accompanied by improving the quality of domestic production technology and the need for synergy between the government and the community to overcome these problems. The method in this study uses descriptive and exploratory methods that aim to present a complete picture of the situation to explore and clarify the phenomenon under study.

Synthesis of EDTA-crosslinked Chitosancarboxymethyl Cellulose Film as Cu(II) Adsorbent
Get PDFEDTA-crosslinked chitosan-carboxymethyl cellulose (C-CMC) film as Cu(II) adsorbent was synthesized. The study aimed to investigate the optimum value of EDTA, Chitosan and CMC to form a polyelectrolyte complex and their effect to the adsorption properties. The film stability in acid and base medium, swelling behaviour, surface morphology by SEM and functional groups by FTIR was investigated. The FTIR spectra showed -NH2 from chitosan and –COO– from CMC and EDTA were present and found to act as the active sites in bond formation to form a crosslinked PEC structure and chelating sites for adsorption process. The formation of interpenetration network was observed by SEM. Swelling capacity was enhanced with CMC addition. EDTA addition decreased swelling capacity yet increased film stability in acidic medium. The optimum condition for Cu(II) adsorption was at pH 5 for 90 mins with initial metal concentration of 100 mg/L resulted in adsorption capacity of 73.95 mg/g. The adsorption process well-fitted to pseudo-second order and Freundlich model. The interaction of Cu(II) onto the active sites of the film was dominated by covalent coordination and exhibit the best desorption capacity with the aid of Na2EDTA
Media and The Religious Intolerance: A Framing Analysis of the Religious Intolerance in the Special Region of Yogyakarta Province, Indonesia
Get PDFSince the foundation in 1945, Indonesia has never been declared as a particular state religion, and instead home to six beliefs. Nevertheless, the inequality number of followers in each religion leads to the majority and minority classification. Thus, it is challenging to prevent social friction in the form of religious intolerance, wherein the constitution mentioned, the freedom of religion and belief should be guaranteed as part of human rights. A mezzo study from The Wahid Institute (2014) showed unpleasant result; Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY), which was well-known by its plurality and toleration, had 733,33 percent increasing religious intolerance incidents, led it to become the second-highest province with religious intolerance incidents. Therefore, this study aims to understand, why did the local media, Kedaulatan Rakyat, Harian Jogja frame the incidents as a mere law and crime events, by highlighting the violent aspects. The result found, the local media tend not to damage harmony and peace in DIY Province since they are reluctant to the figure of the Sultan
Selection Working Fluid of an Organic Rankine Cycle for Low-temperature Heat Source
No full textThis paper simulates an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) system for selection the suitable working fluid in low-temperature process. Six commercial working fluids in Thailand comprised of R-245fa, R-152a, R- 142b, R-134a, R-123, and R-1233zd are considered. Nine main parameters−the mass flow rate, vapor quality, pressure, thermal power of pump, working fluid weight, carbon dioxide emission, net power, ORC efficiency, and carbon dioxide per output power impacts−are used to investigate the suitable working fluid. From the study results, it could be found that R-123 has the best values of a highest net power of 20.16 kWe, a highest ORC efficiency of 8.02%, a lowest thermal power of pump of 0.42 kW, and a lowest pressure difference of 539.21 kPa. R-1233zd shows the lowest values of a carbon dioxide emission of 52 kg CO2 eq/100 y and a carbon dioxide per output power of 2.63 kg CO2 eq/kWe. R-134a reveals a highest mass flow rate of 1.19 kg/s. R-245fa has a highest vapor quality of 114.23%. R-152a shows a lowest working fluid weight of 37 kg. Thus, the suitable working fluid of the low-temperature ORC application is R-123 based on the advantages of ORC efficiency, net power generation, thermal power of pump, and pressure difference

The Analysis Of Leading And Non-Leading Sectors The Economic Growth In Southwest Aceh
Get PDFThe success of economic development, in terms of growth, is by measuring the Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) to optimize local economic development in the era of regional autonomy which refers to Law No. 32 of 2004. This law contains about local government which automatically demands regional governments to be globally oriented such as optimizing the leading sectors and developing the non-leading sector to become leading sectors, as happened in Southwest Aceh. This study aims to analyze the effect of leading and non-leading sectors toward the economic growth in Southwest Aceh in 2010/2016 with 17 sectors. The data used were secondary data taken from Statistics Indonesia by applying location quotient and simple linear regression analysis model. The results of study show that the value of the correlation coefficient (R) obtained was 0.895 which draws that the relationship between leading and non-leading sectors toward the economic growth had a good correlation. Furthermore, the coefficient of determination (R2) was 80.1%. The equation was Y = 8.214 + 2.034X1 + 31.007X2 + e. Next, the value of thit in the leading sectors was 2.338 and significant at α = 10%, and the value of thit in the leading sector coefficient was as much as 1.719 and insignificant. Then, the Fhit value of leading and non leading sectors were significant. In other words, both leading and non leading sectors had positive effects on the economic growth in Southwest Ace
