Changing conditions in the realm of teacher professionalism have consequences for teachers’ professional values and ethics. To a large degree, the literature concludes that increases in accountability policies seem to result in more restricted space for teachers’ professional values and ethical autonomy. Less attention has been given to which kinds and forms of ethics and value logics teachers negotiate and prefer in situations involving accountability policies. In this paper, we analyze how the Union of Education Norway negotiated teacher values in the process of developing their professional ethics code and the final code text. Previous research has shown clashes and struggles between two value systems, or as a change from traditional professional to neoliberal values. However, based on the analyses in this article, a third relation is suggested—one where increased accountability creates a paradoxical situation for teachers’ professional values and ethics—in which the professional ethics of opposition may analytically empty teacher practice of ethical aspects and where professional ethics of engagement may lead to decreased conditions for ethical engagement.

Today ethics is embodied not only in day-to-day life, but also in the communication that surrounds it. The study of communication in professional communities makes it possible to determine the relationship between declared and practically embodied values in work. Ethical attitudes are not only postulates embedded in ethical codes, but also principles of interaction embodied in the construction of the information space and decision-making. Features of modern communications influence the way professional ethics is structured, which, in turn, affects its content and practical implementation. The communication through the Internet makes scientific work performative, filling it with symbols and labels. Increasingly, communication practices have to be carried out around indicators, and thus communication becomes a conductor of neoliberal reforms in scientific work. Therefore, the consequence of modern forms of communication is the forced utilitarianism of ethics associated with the need to compete in the “scientific market”. The article suggests possible ways to overcome the contradictions of communicative transformations of professional values.

Teacher professionalism is something that cannot be negotiated, including for a fiqh teacher. Because the professionalism of a teacher plays a very dominant role, even though the sophistication of technology is very, very impressive. There are still too many human elements such as attitudes, value systems, feelings, motivation, habits, etc. which are expected to be the result of the learning process. A good religious attitude is one of the hopes that results from a fiqh study. And only fiqh learning managed by a professional fiqh teacher has implications for the formation of students' religious attitudes. Professional fiqh teachers are able to create a dynamic and democratic learning atmosphere, and will have implications for students' religious attitudes in the form of; first, the students will understand what they do and at the same time understand what other people who are different from it have been practicing, Second, the level of student obedience in carrying out religious rites is getting better, Third, the more students have more confidence in the truth of their religion, Fourth, the students' commitment to godliness is getting better. good, and Fifth, embedded tolerance towards all differences.   Profesionalisme guru adalah suatu hal yang tidak dapat ditawar-tawar lagi, termasuk bagi seorang guru fiqih. Karena keprofesionalan seorang guru memegang peranan yang sangat dominan, meskipun kecanggihan tehnologi sudah amat sangat mengagumkan. Masih terlalu banyak unsur-unsur manusiawi seperti sikap, sistem nilai, perasaan, motivasi, kebiasaan, dan lain-lain yang diharapkan menjadi hasil dari proses pembelajaran. Sikap keberagamaan yang baik adalah salah satu harapan yang dihasilkan dari sebuah pembelajaran fiqih. Dan hanya pembelajaran fiqih yang dikelola oleh seorang guru fiqih profesional yang memungkinkan berimplikasi pada pembentukan sikap keberagamaan siswa. Guru fiqih yang profesional mampu menciptakan suasana pembelajaran yang dinamis dan demokratis, dan akan berimplikasi terhadap sikap keberagamaan siswa berupa; pertama siswa akan memahami apa yang diamalkan sekaligus memahami apa yang selama ini diamalkan orang lain yang berbeda dengannya, Kedua, tingkat kepatuhan siswa dalam menjalankan ritus-ritus agama semakin baik, Ketiga,  semakin tambah keyakinan siswa terhadap kebenaran agamanya, Keempat, komitmen kebertuhanan siswa semakin baik, dan Kelima, tertanam sikap toleransi terhadap segala perbedaan..

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to research the practice of ethics in Swedish health care organizations using Lean Management. Design/methodology/approach – A qualitative study was conducted. Findings – Findings indicate that ethics is not a consideration when hospitals are implementing Lean Management. Social implications – Organizations generally have diverse value systems when building their codes of professional ethics for examining ethical principles, whereas Lean Management has established base principles with different codes of professional ethics differing from the intrinsic values humans create according to moral philosophy. It could be said that Lean Management relies on minimalistic ethic. While hospitals implement Lean Management, there are still many barriers to resolve to achieve useful implementation. Managing change while emphasizing ethical values could be a success factor for those organizations and their customers. Originality/value – Studying ethical values in Lean Management implementation.

Dalam Menjalankan Profesinya harus sesuai dengan aturan yang disebut juga dengan Kode Etik Hakim. Adanya ketentuan Kode Etik dan Pedoman Perilaku Hakim diatur dalam Surat Keputusan Bersama (SKB) Nomor 047/KMA/SKB/IV/2009 dan Nomor 02/SKB/P.KY/IV/2009 tentang Kode Etik dan Pedoman Perilaku Hakim yang menerangkan mengenai Kode etik yang harus di patuhi oleh hakim dan harus ada keefektifan dalam menajalankan profesinya. Walaupun terdapat kode etik, tidak menutut kemungkinan bahwa ada hakim yang nantinya lalai  yang kemudian melanggar kode etik profesi hakim itu sendiri. Dalam penerapan sanksinya pun harus sepadan dan sesuai dengan pelanggaran yang dilakukan. Artikel ilmiah ini menggunakan  metode penelitian  ini, penulis menggunakan pendekatan hukum normatif atau penelitian kepustakaan. Sedangkan metode pengumpulan data dalam penulisan artikel ilmiah ini dengan melakukan wawancara terhadap pihak yang terkait.Kode etik tersebut menjadi suatu keefektifan tersendiri bagi hakim khususnya di Pengadilan Agama Bangkalan dalam menjalankan profesinya, dilihat dari hakim yang memang melaksanakan tugas dan wewenang sesuai dengan Kode Etik Profesi Hakim. Namun. apabila melanggar terdapat sanksi yang diberikan walaupun hakim juga termasuk salah satu penegak umum dilingkup Mahkamah Agung, sanksi yang diberikan berbeda-beda yakni sanksi ringan, sanksi sedang dan sanksi berat. Hal ini disesuaikan dengan ringan beratnya pelanggaran yang dilakukan oleh hakim. Tidak ada sanksi pelaporan pelanggaran yang diajukan masyarakat Bangkalan ke Pengadilan Agama Bangkalan, hal ini membuktikan hakim dilingkup Pengadilan Agama Bangkalan mematuhi kode etik yang berlaku. Sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa Pengadilan Agama Bangkalan keefektifan dalam mengimplementasikan adanya Kode Etik Profesi sesuai dengan Pedoman memang benar-benar dipatuhi serta tidak ada sanksi pula yang dilanggar oleh Hakim yang ada di Pengadilan Agama Bangkalan.Kata Kunci : Hakim, Kode Etik, Efektivitas, Sanksi.  ABSTRACTThe judge is one of the law enforcers who according to the Law is tasked with hearing cases in the Court. In carrying out his profession must be in accordance with the rules, also called the Judges' Code of Ethics. The provisions of the Code of Ethics and the Code of Conduct for Judges are regulated in the Joint Decree (SKB) Number 047 / KMA / SKB / IV / 2009 and Number 02 / SKB / P.KY / IV / 2009 concerning the Code of Ethics and the Code of Conduct for Judges which explains the Code ethics that must be obeyed by the judge and there must be effectiveness in managing his profession. Even though there is a code of ethics, it does not undermine the possibility that there will be judges who will be negligent who then violate the professional code of justice itself. In applying the sanctions must be commensurate and in accordance with the violations committed. This scientific article uses this research method, the author uses a normative legal approach or library research. While the method of collecting data in writing scientific articles is by conducting interviews with related parties.The code of ethics has become a special effectiveness for judges, especially in the Bangkalan Religious Court in carrying out their profession, seen from judges who indeed carry out their duties and authority in accordance with the Professional Code of Ethics for Judges. However. if there is a sanction violated, even though the judge is also included as one of the general enforcers in the scope of the Supreme Court, the sanctions are different, namely mild sanctions, medium sanctions and severe sanctions. This is adjusted to the severity of the violations committed by the judge. There are no sanctions for reporting violations submitted by Bangkalan people to the Bangkalan Religious Court, this proves that judges in Bangkalan Religious Courts comply with the applicable code of ethics. So it can be concluded that the Bangkalan Religious Court's effectiveness in implementing the existence of the Professional Ethics Code in accordance with the Guidelines was really obeyed and there were no sanctions that were violated by Judges in the Bangkalan Religious Court.Keywords: Judge, Code of Ethics, Effectiveness, Sanctions.
