Exploring the role of energy, trade and financial development in explaining economic growth in South Africa: A revisit
No full textSouth Africa is an emerging and industrializing economy which is experiencing remarkable progress. We contend that amidst the developments in the economy, the role of energy, trade openness and financial development are critical. In this article, we revisit the pivotal role of these factors. We use the ARDL bounds [72], the Bayer and Hanck [11] cointegration techniques, and an extended Cobb–Douglas framework, to examine the long-run association with output per worker over the sample period 1971–2011. The results support long-run association between output per worker, capital per worker and the shift parameters. The short-run elasticity coefficients are as follows: energy (0.24), trade (0.07), financial development (−0.03). In the long-run, the elasticity coefficients are: trade openness (0.05), energy (0.29), and financial development (−0.04). In both the short-run and the long-run, we note the post-2000 period has a marginal positive effect on the economy. The Toda and Yamamoto [91] Granger causality results show that a unidirectional causality from capital stock and energy consumption to output; and from capital stock to trade openness; a bidirectional causality between trade openness and output; and absence (neutrality) of any causality between financial development and output thus indicating that these two variables evolve independent of each other
An assessment of fishing vessel capacity on subsidies, non-tariff measures, and attaining Sustainable Development Goals
No full textThe members of the World Trade Organization (WTO) have been continuously involved in achieving a balanced outcome in the area of fisheries subsidies negotiations in 2018. The discussions have been ongoing and will continue in 2019. According to the 11th Ministerial Conference decision of the WTO, members are committed towards securing a deal in 2019. There are various aspects of fisheries subsidies that members of the WTO are presently assessing. The SDG (Sustainable Development Goals) Target 14.63 is one of the fundamentals for an outcome in the fisheries negotiations. The SDG Target 14.6 aims to prohibit or reduce fisheries subsidies linked to overfishing, overcapacity and illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing (IUU). In 2018, in the Rules Negotiating Group (RNG) on the fisheries clusters, members have discussed on overfishing and IUU issues. However, discussions on the overcapacity issue merits further investigations part of the SDG Target 14.6. This paper therefore aims to assess the relationship between fishing vessel capacity and fisheries subsidies as well as non-tariff measures, and provide further policy advice to trade negotiators in relation to the SDGs. In the assessment, we use panel data modelling of select developed OECD member countries that hold current vessel capacity and assess this against subsidies, non-tariff measures, exports and fish landing. The selected OECD member countries comprise of the proponents of the "Friends of fish" group. The finding of the paper provides policy recommendations for negotiators on fisheries subsidies and overcapacity. It also provides suggestions for special and differential treatment for developing and least developed countries (LDCs) in the fisheries negotiations

Effect of Fisheries Subsidies Negotiations on Fish Production and Interest Rate
No full textWe analyze the effect of fisheries subsidy negotiations on financial markets and aggregate demand in developed and developing countries. We examine the plausible scenarios that are likely to emerge in the event of elimination or reduction of subsidies, and the subsequent effect on the financial markets and the fish production. We use the Keynesian macroeconomic static framework, which is based on an extended well-known investment-savings (IS) and liquidity preference–money supply (LM) model for analysis. Our analysis shows that the impact of a reduction in fisheries subsidies would reduce the exploitation of fish and marine resources in developing countries, thus leading to a general increase in fish prices and quantity stabilizing at lower levels. We also find that this effect would transfer to financial markets, leading to a decline in interest rates for fish exporting developing countries, but interest rates tend to stabilize at higher levels for fish importing developed countries

No full textABSTRAK
Manusia memiliki kesalahan terkadang akibat kelalaiannya baik
disengaja atau tidak. Mereka bisa melanggar aturan hukum yang
ditetapkan negara, akibatnya dari pelanggaran tersebut bisa
mendapatkan sanksi pidana.. Menurut pra penelitian mengemukakan
bawasanya terdapat kasus yang menurut saya sangat menarik untuk di
teliti yaitu kasus pembunuhan yang dilakukan oleh seoarang wanita
dan wanita ini mengalami kekawatiran di dalam hidupnya dalam hal
in Ibu R terlibat dalam sebuah kasus pembunuhan terhadap pria yang
diduga merupakan selingkuhannya. Tindakan keji tersebut tidak
dilakukannya sendiri, melainkan bersama dengan suaminya.
Keduanya diduga telah merencanakan pembunuhan ini dengan
matang, yang kemudian menimbulkan kehebohan di masyarakat.
Namun kuat dugaan adanya unsur cemburu, dendam, atau konflik
pribadi yang memicu tragedi ini. Setelah selesai melewati proses
persidangan dipengadilan, seseorang kemudian akan di masukan
kesatu tempat, dimana tempat itu untuk memperbaiki diri mereka agar
kelak setelah mereka menjalani masa hukuman mereka dikembalikan
masyarakat menjadi orang-orang yang baik tempat tersebut
dinamakan lembaga permasyarakatan. Kekhawatiran itu selalu muncul
baik saat menunggu waktu persidangan, saat menjalani pembinaan
bahakan ia sudah memikirkan bagaimana nasipnya paska menjalani
hukuman. Bentuk ke khawatiran itu seperti ketakutan tersendiri
menghadapi kenyataan akan garis hidupnya. Belum lagi di benaknya
memikirkan setelah menjalani hukuman pasti masyarakat akan
menilai buruk akan dirinya. Harapan hidup ( Ideal Self ) merupakan
“gambaran diri seperti yang diinginkan, bagaimana diri seharusnya,
sebagai tujuan perkembangan dan prestasi. Dan disini terkadang
seseorng bisa saja mengalami yang namanya hilang harapan hidup
yang disebabkan permasahan atau kasus yang sedang ia jalani atau
alami.
Di dalam penelitian di Lembaga Pemasyarakatan Perempuan

Hasil penelitian yang telah penulis uraikan, dapat disimpulkan
bahwa terdapat beberapa narapidana yang hilang harapan akan
hidupnya terkait narapidana yang menjalani atau memikirkan akan
kasus ang ia alami, bahkan ada diantara mereka, sering malu dan ragu
untuk mengemukakan pendapat padahal mereka membutuhkan
support dan dukungan atau hal yang ia rasakan. Namun karena mereka
merasa tidak enak, takut dan malu sehingga mereka memendam
sendiri dan akhirnya mereka merasa dongkol dan akhirnya menjadi
murung dan hingga mengalami hilang harapan hidup. Berdasarkan
pengamatan yang penulis lakukan, layanan konseling individu dengan
pendekatan client canter dilakukan selama 7 kali pertemuan dengan
durasi waktu selama 60 menit setiap pertemuan dalam kurun waktu
dari 28 Oktober - 11 Desember 2024. Setelah menjalani layanan

Harapan Hidup Narapidana. ABSTRACT
Humans sometimes make mistakes due to their negligence,
whether intentional or not. They can violate the rules of law set by the
state, as a result of the violation, they can get criminal sanctions.
According to pre-research, it is stated that there is a case that I think is
very interesting to study, namely a murder case committed by a
woman and this woman experienced anxiety in her life in this case
Mrs. R was involved in a murder case against a man who was
suspected of being her lover. The heinous act was not carried out
alone, but together with her husband. Both are suspected of having
planned this murder carefully, which then caused a commotion in the
community. However, it is strongly suspected that there was an
element of jealousy, revenge, or personal conflict that triggered this
tragedy. After completing the trial process in court, a person will then
be put in one place, where the place is to improve themselves so that
later after they serve their sentence they will be returned to society as
good people, the place is called a correctional institution. This anxiety
always arises both when waiting for the trial time, when undergoing
guidance, and even she has thought about her fate after serving her
sentence. The form of anxiety is like a fear of facing the reality of her
life line. Not to mention in his mind the thought that after serving his
sentence, society would definitely judge him badly. Life expectancy
(Ideal Self) is "an image of oneself as desired, how oneself should be,
as a goal of development and achievement. And here sometimes
someone can experience what is called a loss of life hope due to
problems or cases that they are currently living or experiencing.
In this research at the Class IIA Women's Penitentiary in
Bandar Lampung, this includes field research. Primary data was
obtained directly with a case study approach from interviews with 1
inmate and 1 counselor at the Class IIA Women's Penitentiary in
Bandar Lampung. Data collection techniques were by interview,
observation, and documentation. Data analysis techniques were by
data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the research that the author has described, can be
concluded that there are several inmates who have lost hope in their
lives related to inmates who are undergoing or thinking about the
cases they experience, even some of them are often embarrassed and
hesitant to express their opinions even though they need support and
support or things they feel. However, because they feel
uncomfortable, afraid and embarrassed, they keep it to themselves and
finally they feel annoyed and finally become gloomy and even lose
hope in life. Based on the author's observations, individual counseling
services with a client canter approach were carried out for 7 meetings
with a duration of 60 minutes each meeting within the period from
October 28 to December 11, 2024. After undergoing counseling
services with a client canter approach carried out by counselors at the
Class IIA Women's Prison in Bandar Lampung, there were many
changes in prisoners, acting independently in making decisions based
on services with the client canter approach, but in this study, the client
continued to be monitored until the client felt cured of the feelings the
client felt.

Berdasarkan hasil temuan yang diperoleh, pelaksanaan pernikahan identik dengan hal perayaan dan sebuah pesta. Dimana perayaan tersebut dijadikan ajang kontetasi sebagai tanda pencapaian individu dalam kehidupannya karena perayaan pernikahan berhubungan dengan status sosial. Namun, menikah di KUA termasuk kedalam pilihan pelaksanaan pernikahan. Hal ini adalah bukti dari terjadinya proses globalisasi yang membuat berkembangnya pemikiran modern pada setiap individu. Stigma menikah di KUA bukan lagi hanya tentang kelas menengah kebawah saja. Namun, seluruh kalangan masyarakat sudah mempertimbangkan bahwa menikah di KUA dapat menjadi pilihan pelaksanaan pernikahan. Terdapat beberapa pertimbangan dasar di bagian sosial budaya dan juga ekonomi yang mempengaruhi hal tersebut. Maka dari fenomena tersebut, peneliti akan menganalisis hal tersebut menggunakan Teori Pilihan Rasional, James S. Coleman.

Based on the findings obtained, the implementation of marriage is synonymous with celebration and a party. Where the celebration is used as a contestation event as a sign of individual achievement in life because wedding celebrations are related to social status. However, getting married at the KUA is included in the choice of marriage implementation. This is evidence of the globalization process that makes the development of modern thinking in each individual. The stigma of getting married at the KUA is no longer just about the lower middle class. However, all circles of society have considered that getting married at the KUA can be an option for implementing marriage. There are several basic considerations in the socio-cultural and economic sections that influence this. So from this phenomenon, researchers will analyze this using Rational Choice Theory, James S. Coleman
