Why do presidents fail? political leadership and the Argentine crisis (1999–2001)
No full textThis article explores why Argentine president Fernando de la Rúa (1999–2001) failed to govern and the factors that prevented him from completing his constitutional mandate. This study draw on current literature about leadership. We argue that President De la Rúa’s ineffective performance was characteristic of an inflexible tendency towards unilateralism, isolationism, and an inability to compromise and persuade. Moreover, we examine how de la Rúas performance, in the context of severe political and economic constraints, discouraged cooperative practices among political actors, led to decision-making paralysis, and ultimately to a crisis of governance.This work seeks to make four contributions. First, it conceptualizes political leadership by providing an analytical framework that integrates individual action, institutional resources and constraints, and policy context, thus filling a gap in the literature. Second, it explains the importance of effective leadership in building up and maintaining multiparty coalitions in presidential systems. Third, it complements existing institutional approaches to improve our understanding of a new type of instability in Latin America: the failure of more than a dozen of presidents to complete their constitutional mandates. Fourth, it analyzes the way political and economic variables interact in times of crisis

Absence of xenotropic murine leukaemia virus-related virus in UK patients with chronic fatigue syndrome
No full textBackground: Detection of a retrovirus, xenotropic murine leukaemia virus-related virus (XMRV), has recently been reported in 67% of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome. We have studied a total of 170 samples from chronic fatigue syndrome patients from two UK cohorts and 395 controls for evidence of XMRV infection by looking either for the presence of viral nucleic acids using quantitative PCR (limit of detection <16 viral copies) or for the presence of serological responses using a virus neutralisation assay.
Results: We have not identified XMRV DNA in any samples by PCR (0/299). Some serum samples showed XMRV neutralising activity (26/565) but only one of these positive sera came from a CFS patient. Most of the positive sera were also able to neutralise MLV particles pseudotyped with envelope proteins from other viruses, including vesicular stomatitis virus, indicating significant cross-reactivity in serological responses. Four positive samples were specific for XMRV.
Conclusions: No association between XMRV infection and CFS was observed in the samples tested, either by PCR or serological methodologies. The non-specific neutralisation observed in multiple serum samples suggests that it is unlikely that these responses were elicited by XMRV and highlights the danger of over-estimating XMRV frequency based on serological assays. In spite of this, we believe that the detection of neutralising activity that did not inhibit VSV-G pseudotyped MLV in at least four human serum samples indicates that XMRV infection may occur in the general population, although with currently uncertain outcomes
TINJAUAN HUKUM ISLAM DAN HUKUM POSITIF TERHADAP PENGELOLAAN LIMBAH DARI USAHA LAUNDRY (STUDI KASUS PADA JASA LAUNDRY PAKAIAN DI JL. SORAWAJAN BARU YOGYAKARTA)
No full textThe emergence of many laundry businesses has helped the economy of laundry entrepreneurs and also working employees. However, laundry entrepreneurs often ignore the issue of waste management, resulting in environmental pollution. Many of the laundry entrepreneurs do not have a Wastewater Management Installation (WWTP) and they often dispose of laundry waste carelessly, resulting in water and environmental pollution. This also happened to laundry businesses in Yogyakarta, especially those on Jl. New Sorawajan, Banguntapan, Bantul, Yogyakarta. Based on this, this thesis wants to do further research related to waste water management in the laundry business on Jl. Sorowajan Baru, Bantul Yogyakarta from the perspective of Islamic law and positive law. The main issues in this thesis are: (1) how is the management of wastewater from the laundry business on Jl. Sorawajan Baru Yogyakarta?, and (2) how is the waste management from the laundry business viewed from the perspective of Islamic law and positive law? The purpose of this research is to: (1) find out the waste management in the laundry business on Jl. New Sorawajan Yogyakarta and (2) knowing how waste management in the laundry is from the perspective of Islamic law and positive law. This research uses a juridical-normative approach. The theory that the author uses to analyze the problem of waste management from the laundry business on Jl. Sorowajan Baru, Bantul Yogyakarta, is the theory of environmental protection in Islamic law (hifz al-bi'ah) developed by Ali Yafie and the theory of environmental protection in positive law. This research is a field research, namely research where the main data is taken directly from the field. The authors collect these data using the method of observation, interviews and documentation. The data that has been collected is then narrated by the writer and analyzed using descriptive-comparative analysis. From the research that the author has done, the following conclusions are obtained: First, most of the laundry business waste management (six out of seven laundry businesses) in the region already have a Wastewater Development Installation (IPAL) and they dispose of waste through the WWTP. This means that they have taken part in protecting and preserving the environment. Thus, the management of the laundry business complies with the provisions of Islamic law (environmental fiqh), namely by managing the waste according to existing standards. From the perspective of environmental jurisprudence, this is in accordance with the objectives of Islamic law being prescribed, one of which is protecting and preserving the environment (hifz al-bi'ah). In addition, it is also in accordance with positive legal provisions as contained in Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management and Bantul Regent Regulation Number 15 of 2015 concerning Permits to Utilize Wastewater. Second, a small number of laundry entrepreneurs (one out of seven laundry businesses) on Jl. Sorowajan Baru does not have an WWTP so they dispose of laundry waste carelessly. Not only that, this research also found that some laundry businesses that already have an WWTP also sometimes dispose of waste not through existing channels, but dispose of it carelessly. This is of course contrary to the objectives of establishing Islamic law (maqasid asy-shari'ah), especially in terms of the obligation to protect and preserve the environment (hifz al-bi'ah) and also contradicts the existing provisions in positive law, namely the Law Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management and Bantul Regent Regulation Number 15 of 2015 concerning Permits for Utilization of Wastewater
