The Capability Approach

Abstract While the capability approach is increasingly being adopted for evaluating well-being and social justice in the field of human development, this approach in disaster research has remained scarce. This research thus seeks to address the disaster risk that humans face through a lens of capabilities, with a focus on the lives of people with disabilities. A multi-case study approach was adopted and two rural communes in Vietnam were selected as study contexts. Data were collected using focus group discussions and interviews that involved people with disabilities, parents/caregivers of people with intellectual/psychosocial disabilities, and representatives from related organizations. It was found that people with disabilities are affected by disasters due to the lack of capabilities that they value in coping with disasters. A range of capabilities that people with disabilities value was revealed in the study sites, with many being valued not only in times of disasters but also in daily life. The findings also highlight that, to actualize their valued capabilities, people with disabilities need access not only to resources but also to the factors that enable them to convert the resources to their valued capabilities. In most cases, the limitations to the achievement of capabilities are related to the external environment.

One of the efforts made by the government to increase development is by developing the field of investment, because economically investment is the first step in production activities. In this regard, to create a realization of sustainable investment, a conducive investment climate is needed. A conducive investment climate in the economy is a hope for the community, investors, business people and the government. This study aims to analyze and explain the strategies of the Banyuwangi Regency Government as an effort to create a Conducive Investment Climate that is useful for regional development. This research was conducted using qualitative methods with a case study approach. Data collection techniques that will be used in this study include interviews, focus group discussions, documentation and literature studies. The results showed that BanyuwangiRegency implemented regulations on investment by implementing several e-Government applications that had the function of transparency, accountability, and facilitating public services related to investment. E-government leads to good governance because government services are more transparent, effective and efficient so as to form public trust which has an impact on increasing investment interest by investors. The increase in investment was also caused by policies or regulations that favored the creation of a conducive investment climate.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to provide a profile of Rob Wright. Design/methodology/approach Using a case study approach, Rob gives a short account of his background and is then interviewed by Jerome. Findings Rob’s is an amazing account of surviving a harrowing upbringing, which fortunately few of us reading this piece will have had to endure. Research limitations/implications Rob’s story perfectly illustrates why first-person accounts are so powerful. It is hard to imagine a statistical paper having the same impact as this description of one person’s lived experience. Practical implications Suicide is the greatest danger for anyone with a long-term mental health problem. Rob has faced this decision many times and has courageously battled on. Social implications Rachel’s simple, yet profound mantra, of “someone to love, something to do, somewhere to live,” is vital for all of our well-being. As Rob also points out, you still need money to put into the electric meter! Originality/value Some people have tough upbringings and some have cruel upbringings. Rob had both. His survival is a testament to the uncrushable nature of the human spirit.

Since 1990s, the increase in housing price, housing loan application rejection and bankruptcy due to housing loan default, have highlighted the need for a better way of home financing. Islamic home financing that promotes social well-being is a suitable alternative. Malaysia is in the forefront of Islamic financing system development, and Islamic home financing including the Musharakah Mutanaqisah (MM) is being implemented. Nevertheless, the MM is implemented with Wa’d. This jeopardizes the true spirit of partnership in MM home financing. Why MM is implemented with Wa’d? Is MM without Wa’d not feasible? The main objective of the present study is to simulate the case of MM without Wa’d and evaluate its feasibility. Results revealed that it is feasible to implement MM without Wa’d. In addition, MM without Wa’d could reduce the probability of loan default and increases the affordability of homeownership
