    Includes bibliographical references (p. [265]-271) and index.xx, 284 pages ;E-commerce is still a volatile industry, but each day a new enterprise pops up promising to be the next big thing. The real challenge is to understand what is involved in using the Internet as a means to building a successful business.

Faisal Hoque introduces the concept of high-level abstraction of business processes and application functionality that result in reusable business and technology components. He provides a methodology that is critical for all business leaders and technologists trying to build an enterprise on the internet

    Essays on the post-9/11 labor markets for "Muslims" in the West --: evidence from the US and the UK

    No full text
    Theories of both statistical and prejudiced discrimination predict adverse effects of terrorist events on workers who are demographically similar to terrorists. Using a difference-in-differences framework, this paper assesses the impact of the 9/11 attacks in the US and of the July 2005 bombings in Britain. In the US, the outcomes worsened for those with nativity profiles closer to the terrorists'. The author finds a relative decrease in employment of very young (ages 16 to 25) target-group men associated with 9/11 in the US. A similar decrease in employment of these very young "Muslims" living in the UK is also found after 9/11 and again after the bombings in London in July 2005.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical references

Sebanyak lima buah novel akan ditelusuri, iaitu Perempuan Politikus Melayu, 1515, 1511H[Kombat], SsPJ, Tunggu Teduh Dulu dan Bahlut. Kajian ini menggunakan metodologi kualitatif yang melibatkan pembacaan rapi dan pentafsiran sumber bertulis. Bagi menganalisis pembinaan jati diri, Teori Teksdealisme digunakan sebagai landasan kajian. Dalam Teori Teksdealisme telah mengemukakan prinsip individualisme atau keperibadian untuk mengesan keupayaan seseorang pengarang untuk membina jati diri atau keperibadiannya. Bagi mengesan pembinaan individualisme tersebut, prinsip ini telah mengemukakan empat unsur yang diterokai, iaitu subjektiviti, stail individu, reka cipta individu dan tindakan individu. Semua unsur tersebut dianalisis secara tekstual dan konstektual berdasarkan tujuan dan persoalan kajian yang ditetapkan. Kajian mendapati bahawa Faisal Tehrani berusaha untuk membina dan menampilkan jati diri kepengarangannya melalui subjektiviti, stail individu, reka cipta individu dan tindakan individu. Keupayaan membina individualisme ini akan mengukuhkan kedudukan serta ketokohan beliau sebagai pengarang yang memiliki ciri-ciri keunggulan kerana mempunyai ideologi, kreativiti, sensitiviti dan matlamat tersendiri dalam menghasilkan novel-novelnya.   Faisal Tehrani is among the new generation of prolific and active authors today. His works show distinct uniqueness in the textual and contextual aspects in terms of the changes in the flow, themes, problems and thoughts that come into being in producing his works. Accordingly, this study aims to analyze the development of his identity in his selected novels. Throughout his creative production, he has produced various teen and mature novels to effectively communicate his ideas, questions, problems, messages, etc. A total of five novels was studied, namely Perempuan Politikus Melayu, 1515, 1511H [Kombat], SsPJ, Tunggu Teduh Dulu and Bahlut. This study will apply a qualitative methodology involving intensive reading and interpretation of written sources. To analyze the development of identity, the texdialism theory will be used as the basis of the study. The Texdialism Theory puts forward the principles of individualism or individuality to detect the ability of an author to build his identity or personality. To track the construction of the individualism, this approach presented four exploratory elements, namely subjectivity, individual style, individual inventor and individual action. All of these elements will be analysed textually and consistently based on the objectives and questions of the study. The study found that Faisal Tehrani sought to build and display his identity through subjectivity, individual styles, individual inventions and individual actions. The ability to build this individualism will reinforce his position as an author who has the characteristics of excellence because of his ideology, creativity, sensitivity and purpose in producing his novels

Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pada novel Puya Ke Puya ini terjadinya konflik keluarga dalam memutuskan perihal upacara pemakaman adat rambu solo. Konstruksi antielitisme budaya yang dideskripsikan pada novel ini terdapat enam hal yaitu keturunan, kualitas intrinsik, kecerdasan tokoh, kekayaan, pengalaman dan otoritas. Adanya kontradiksi antielitisme budaya terkait dengan pemikiran dua hal yang bertentangan dapat dilihat dari hubungan antar tokoh utama dengan tokoh lainnya berkaitan pada keputusan pelaksanaan upacara rambu solo. Relevansi budaya lokal Toraja dengan perkembangan zaman di novel Puya Ke Puya bahwa era yang semakin modern mengubah pola pikirnya dalam memutuskan untuk melaksanakan adat kepercayaan atau adanya kreativitas baru dalam kebudayaan itu sendiri. Kata Kunci : Budaya Toraja, Antielitisme, Rambu Solo, Stratifikasi Sosial. ABSTRACT Ngesti Wahyuni, Cultural Antielitism in Faisal Oddang's Puya Ke Puya Novel. Thesis, Jakarta: Sociology Study Program, Faculty of Social Sciences, Jakarta State University, 2020. This study aims to describe the construction of cultural anti-literacy in Toraja traditional funeral ceremonies in Puya Ke Puya. In addition, to describe the contradictions of cultural anti-literacy that occur in Puya Ke Puya's novels and to describe the implications of cultural anti-literacy and social criticism for literary works in Puya Ke Puya's novels. This study uses a qualitative approach with the type of hermeneutic research. The data analysis technique used in this study used critical discourse analysis techniques from Teun A. Van Dijk. The research subject is the novel Puya Ke Puya by Faisal Oddang which focuses on texts that represent the construction and contradictions of cultural anti-literacy carried out by figures in Toraja traditional burials. The author also conducted interviews with Toraja informants as data triangulation. The author analyzes and processes the texts contained in the novel Puya Ke Puya with the concept of culture in the past, present and future, which departs from the thoughts of Raymond Williams and is associated with cultural antielitism. The results showed that in this Puya Ke Puya novel there was a family conflict in deciding about the rambu solo funeral ceremony. The construction of cultural antielitism described in this novel contains six things, namely heredity, intrinsic quality, character intelligence, wealth, experience and authority. The contradiction of cultural antielitism related to the idea of two opposing things can be seen from the relationship between the main character and other figures regarding the decision to carry out the solo sign ceremony. The relevance of Torajan local culture with the times in Puya Ke Puya's novel is that an increasingly modern era changes its mindset in deciding to carry out traditional beliefs or the presence of new creativity in the culture itself. Keywords : Toraja Culture, Antielitism, Rambu Solo, Social Stratificatio

    A Critical Autoethnography of a Post-Brown Principal’s Effort to Develop African American Students’ Academic Identity and Achievement Orientation

    No full text
    African American male students in the post-Brown era are experiencing both social and academic failure in comparison to African American females and their non-Black peers. African American male students are a student demographic not receiving the most effective forms of school/classroom climate and culture, instruction, school discipline, and teacher-student interactions. As a result, many African American males are not developing a strong identification with school and the motivation necessary to engage in rigorous coursework. The failure to develop academic identity and achievement orientation in African American male students can lead to disengagement with the school in elementary years, higher school dropout rates, lower rates of college enrollment, higher rates of joblessness and poverty, and higher rates of incarceration. The purpose of this study was to explore the impact of principal leadership on the development of academic identity and achievement orientation of African American males. This qualitative study represents a first-person narrative of the complexities, interpretations, analysis, and reflections of a post-Brown African American principal developing African American male students’ academic identity and achievement orientation using leadership philosophies and practices derived from a study of principal leadership of all-Black schools during the post-Brown era. The method of research for this qualitative study was autoethnography with the author being both researcher and subject. The major finding from this autoethnography is that principal matters. By designing a child-centered learning environment characterized by high academic and social expectations; effective teaching, including culturally relevant pedagogy; and parent engagement and community partnerships, African American males can develop academic identity and achievement orientation. Principals can be change agents and positively impact school cultures in ways that support African American male students in developing a positive identification of academic pursuits, and with demonstrating ownership of their learning outcomes.Doctor of Education (EdD)College of Education, Health & Human ServicesUniversity of Michigan-Dearbornhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/156401/1/Faisal Dissertation with Dedication_Revisions__8-26_2020.pdfDescription of Faisal Dissertation with Dedication_Revisions__8-26_2020.pdf : Dissertatio
