Halal Product Guarantee in Indonesia: Regulation and Social Inclusion
No full textHalal Product Guarantee Act exists to ensure the protection of halal products consumed by Muslim consumers. Since it contains rules that only lead to protecting certain segments of society (Muslim consumers), this rule has become controversial. It is alleged to be potentially discriminatory. An argumentative and critical study shows that this is not factual. Apart from being legally tested, the social facts show that the regulation can be a means for the process of social inclusion: a process where people can respect each other’s communal rights, within the framework of authentic legal togetherness. The method employed is the analysis of legislation in a sociological perspective (sociological jurisprudence). The results of this study are through a series of juridical and sociological examinations, the Halal Product Guarantee Act can qualify as an integrative factor (social inclusion), in doing so it is expected to be an instrument of protecting people's rights (Muslim consumers' rights to get guaranteed halal products).

The SSC of the Generalised Jahangir’s Graph Jm,k and its Algebraic Characterizations
No full textIn this article, we present important combinatorial and algebraicproperties of spanning simplicial complex (SSC) of the generalised Jahangir’sgraph Jm,k. We describe the relation to find f−vectors associatedto Δs(Jm,k) and determine the Hilbert series for the SR-ring KΔs(Jm,k).In the end, we present the associated primes of the facet ideal IF(Δs(Jm,k))and the Cohen-Macaulay characterization of the SR-ring of Δs(Jm,k).AMS (MOS) Subject Classification Codes: Primary 13-P10, Secondary 13-F20, 13-C14, 13-H10.Corresponding Author: Agha KashifKey Words: Simplicial Complexes, f-vectors, Spanning Trees, Face Ring, Hilbert Series, CohenMacaulay
To <i>JM</i> on Its 75th Anniversary
No full text This article discusses how Journal of Marketing ( JM) has influenced marketing science and practice by publishing articles on substantive topics relevant to customers, managers, organizations, markets, and society. The journal's 75th anniversary coincides with the 50th anniversary of the Marketing Science Institute (MSI). Frequently, JM and MSI have collaborated to address important substantive marketing issues identified in MSI's Research Priorities. The author highlights seminal articles on brand equity; business-to-business marketing (including sales force management); connecting marketing information, metrics, and strategy; consumer behavior; innovation, new product development. and product management; marketing orientation and capabilities; and market research, methodology and services. She also draws attention to articles that have won the Sheth Foundation/ JM Award and the H. Paul Root Award. The article describes how JM‘s knowledge dissemination is amplified by powerful social network effects. Ideas in JM articles diffuse through the business community, influencing the mind-set of managers worldwide. </jats:p
EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT MODELS OF ZAKAT MANAGEMENT: NORMATIVE AND INNOVATION BASE
Full text linkZakat is a social mechanism and system outlined in the teachings of Islam to be a path to inner well-being through equitable access to economic resources and togetherness. Unfortunately, often in practice, zakat is only a charitable mechanism. based on mercy and individual volunteerism. This paper wants to emphasize that traditions and thoughts that interpret zakat only as a charity process must be changed. One of them is to do a philosophical normative basic reorientation towards strengthening the stem and the model of zakat which is effective and efficient. This last thing is not only an abash to strive for, but also a necessity. Exposure is done by normative and deductive juridical methods. Combined with a systemic approach that refers to the standardization of organizations and models of social movements that are effective and efficient. The data is extracted from various sources of Islamic law literature then combined with architectural framework theory to find an effective and efficient organizing model. This research is a juridical research that is qualitative, where the researcher will describe and analyze from the data and other literature related to this research in a deductive way . In conducting the analysis, the author uses two approaches: a normative juridical approach and a paralellism setting to the basic theory of efficiency and effectiveness. Thus, to propose a model of innovation based on justified norm
JM-20, a Benzodiazepine-Dihydropyridine Hybrid Molecule, Inhibits the Formation of Alpha-Synuclein-Aggregated Species
No full text\ua9 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Studies showed that JM-20, a benzodiazepine-dihydropyridine hybrid molecule, protects against rotenone and 6-hydroxydopamine neurotoxicity. However, its protective effects against cytotoxicity induced by endogenous neurotoxins involved in Parkinson’s disease (PD) pathogenesis have never been investigated. In this study, we evaluated the ability of JM-20 to inhibit alpha-synuclein (aSyn) aggregation. We also evaluated the interactions of JM-20 with aSyn by molecular docking and molecular dynamics and assessed the protective effect of JM-20 against aminochrome cytotoxicity. We demonstrated that JM-20 induced the formation of heterogeneous amyloid fibrils, which were innocuous to primary cultures of mesencephalic cells. Moreover, JM-20 reduced the average size of aSyn positive inclusions in H4 cells transfected with SynT wild-type and synphilin-1-V5, but not in HEK cells transfected with synphilin-1-GFP. In silico studies showed the interaction between JM-20 and the aSyn-binding site. Additionally, we showed that JM-20 protects SH-SY5Y cells against aminochrome cytotoxicity. These results reinforce the potential of JM-20 as a neuroprotective compound for PD and suggest aSyn as a molecular target for JM-20

Abstract
Infertility due to the inability of the uterus to carry a pregnancy ranks among the most unresolved issues in reproductive medicine. It affects millions of women worldwide who have congenital or acquired uterine affections, often requiring hysterectomy, and potentially represents a considerable fraction of the general infertile population. Patients suffering from severe uterine infertility are currently compelled to go through gestational surrogacy or adoption; both approaches, unfortunately, deprive them of the maternal experience of pregnancy and birth. Uterine transplantation represents an outstanding, yet complex, perspective to alleviating definitive uterine infertility. In the past decades, a number of scientific experiments conducted both in animals and women, focusing on uterine transplantation, have led to promising results. Collectively, these findings undoubtedly constitute a sound basis to clinically apply uterine transplantation in the near future. This paper is, however, an overview not only of the extent and limitations of accumulated scientific knowledge on uterine transplantation, but also its ethical implications, in an effort to define the actual place of such an approach among the therapeutic arsenal for alleviating infertility.

Translation and interpretation: Translation redundancy reconsidered
No full textInterpretation is an integral part of the process of translating. This article raises the question of whether interpretation fo a literary work by a translator should be guided by extratextual factors or not. The discussion is illustrated with examples taken from David Hawkes' translation of a Chinese classic, A Dream of Red Mansions. As the work of a scholar-translator, Hawkes' version is richly supplemented with disclosures concerning the characters and explanations of the cultural environment embodied in the novel. In many cases, however, this translation procedure is redundant and explanatory, enlightening the readers but at the same time robbing them of the pleasure of literary interpretation and cultural exploration. By means of this illustration of translation redundancy, the author points out that there is difference between a scholar who helps the interpretation fo a work and a translator who presents a work close to its original version. It is particularly important to pay attention tot his difference in literary translations in a cross-cultural situation involving two enormously different cultures.Language & LinguisticsA&HCI0ARTICLE1,SI115-12
