Market Structure and Competitiveness of Indonesian Natural Rubber in the United States
Karet alam Indonesia berperan penting untuk meningkatkan perekonomian nasional melalui ekspor karet alam ke berbagai negara, termasuk Amerika Serikat. Indonesia perlu melakukan identifikasi posisi dan daya saing karet alam di antara negara pesaing serta peluang pasarnya ke Amerika Serikat. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menganalisis struktur pasar, keunggulan komparatif dan kompetitif karet alam Indonesia di pasar Amerika Serikat. Analisis dilakukan pada periode tahun 2008 dan 2019 melalui metode Herfindahl Index (HI), Concentration Ratio (CR4), Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA), Export Product Dynamic (EPD), dan Diamond’s Porter. Hasil analisis menemukan bahwa struktur pasar karet alam Indonesia adalah monopoli dan cenderung sedikit oligopoli. Dibandingkan dengan negara-negara eksportir lainnya, karet alam Indonesia memiliki keunggulan komparatif di pasar Amerika Serikat dengan nilai RCA>1. Keunggulan kompetitif karet alam Indonesia di Amerika Serikat mengalami penurunan dari posisi lost opportunity pada periode pertama (2008-2011) menjadi retreat pada periode ketiga (2016-2019). Hasil dari Diamond’s Porter menunjukkan bahwa terdapat tujuh faktor keunggulan kompetitif dan tiga faktor kelemahan dalam industri karet alam di Indonesia.Indonesian natural rubber plays a significant role in improving the national economy by exporting natural rubber to various countries, including the United States. Indonesia must identify its natural rubber position and competitiveness among competing countries and market opportunities in the US. This study aims to analyze the market structure, comparative advantage and competitiveness of Indonesian natural rubber in the US market. The analysis was carried out in the period 2008 and 2019 through methods, including Herfindahl Index (HI), Concentration Ratio (CR4), Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA), Export Product Dynamic (EPD), and Diamond's Porter. The analysis found that the natural rubber market structure in Indonesia is monopolistic and tends to be oligopolistic. Compared to other exporting countries, Indonesian natural rubber has comparative advantage in the US market, as indicated by the RCA>1. The competitiveness of Indonesian natural rubber in the US decline overtime from the lost opportunity position in the first period (2008-2011) to retreat in the third period (2016-2019). The diamond's porter results show that there are seven competitive advantage factors and three weakness factors in Indonesia's natural rubber industry
Akurasi Arah Kiblat Kuburan Di Desa Waetuoe Kabupaten Pinrang
Dalam ilmu fiqih, terdapat beberapa hal tentang mengebumikan jenazah sebagaimana apa yang telah ditetapkan dalam ajaran islam bahwa hukum mengebumikan jenazah adalah farḍu kifayah bagi orang-orang yang masih hidup dan memeluk agama Islam. Dari sekian banyak aturan dalam mengebumikan jenazah salah satu diantaranya ialah dengan menghadapkan posisi kuburan jenazah ke qiblat dan sekarang ini masih banyak masyarakat yang mengaggap sepele masalah penentuan arah qiblat khususnya arah qiblat kuburan Pernyataan tersebut bisa saja terjadi karena adanya anggapan masyarakat bahwa menghadapkan mayit ke arah qiblat dalam kuburan hanya anjuran saja, bukan kewajiban. Dari permasalahan tersebut menyebabkan banyak bangunan mesjid dan pemakaman tidak menghadap ke arah qiblat yang sebenarnya, bahkan dari kalangan masyarakat tersebut banyak menganggap arah barat adalah arah qiblat tapi kenyataannnya tidak seperti itu. Proses penentuan arah qiblat pada pemakan sebagian besar hanya ditentukan oleh imam masjid atau dengan mengikuti arah qiblat kuburan-kuburan yang terdahulu, mereka menganggap perpindahan matahari dari timur ke barat adalah arah qiblat, oleh sebab itu dalam penelitian ini penulis ingin melakukan pengukuran ulang terhadap qiblat kuburan dipemakamakan Desa Waetuoe Kabupaten Pinrang dengan menggunakan Qiblat Tracker dan Perhitungan manual berdasarkan lintang dan bujur tempat.Kata Kunci : Akurasi, Arah Qiblat, Kuburan, Qiblat Tracker
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
