In order to adapt in changing environment, innovation is an important component inpublic organization. Innovation in public organization runs in two stages, the initiationstage and the implementation stage. The study examines supporting factors and barriersof innovation at the Driving Licence service agency. The paper analyzes the initiationstage and the implementation stage. In the initiation stage, the article shows theagency’s decision to impement "SIM Booking Innovation" as policy to respond to thedemands of the community and organization. At implementation stage, the agencyimplement a more technical intervention by building infrastructure such as allocatingspecial booth and staff, For driving license extension procedure, the agency adopted theexisting model. In conclusion, the article argues that the supporting factors inorganization innovation consists of broad-minded and open-minded leaders,availability of facilities, and organizational support in the implementation ofinnovation. On the other hand, the barrier factors of innovation are the lack of specialbudget to support innovation program, risk aversion of subordinates and over-relianceon high-performers.

This research investigates migrant self-selection on values, beliefs, and attitudes using data from Eastern European and former Soviet countries. We find that individuals who intend to emigrate are more politically active, more critical of governance and institutions, more tolerant toward other cultures, less tolerant of cheating, more optimistic, and less risk averse. With the exception of risk aversion, all selection patterns are heterogeneous across regions of origin. On the other hand, no self-selection pattern is detected on education, willingness to pay for public goods, and economic liberalism. These findings provide new insights into the determinants of international migration and reveal some of its less known consequences, such as a possible reduction of domestic pressure for political improvements in post-Soviet states due to politically active citizens’ higher propensity to emigrate.

Since dental plaque reservoirs of fluoride (F), calcium (Ca) and inorganic phosphorus (Pi) are susceptible to decreases in pH, this in situ crossover study was conducted to test the hypothesis that the low concentration of these ions in plaque, formed in the presence of sucrose, could be attributed merely to the fermentation of this sugar. Eleven volunteers wore palatal appliances containing 6 human enamel blocks during two stages. In each stage, the treatments were either 20% sucrose solution or distilled deionized water, which were dripped onto the blocks 8 times a day. After 28 days, in each stage, the dental plaque formed on two blocks was collected, the treatment was inverted and after a further 24 and 48 h, the biofilm formed was collected from the other blocks. The concentration of acid-soluble F, Ca and Pi, and the concentration of insoluble polysaccharide (IP) were determined in the dental plaque. Statistically lower concentrations of F, Ca and Pi, and a higher concentration of IP were found in the 28-day biofilm formed in the presence of sucrose than in its absence; after the treatment inversion the change in F, Ca and Pi was not statistically significant, but the IP concentration changed significantly. The hypothesis was rejected because change in concentration of F, Ca and Pi is not due to fermentation of the sucrose.

ABSTRAK Tradisi begalan adalah salah satu tradisi pernikahan yang ada pada masyarakat Kabupaten Banyumas yang sarat akan makna dan nasehat bagi pasangan pengantin yang baru saja menikah. Sanggar Sekar Kantil sebagai salah satu sanggar yang masih melestarikan sekaligus tempat bernaung bagi beberapa pelaku tradisi begalan yang ada di Kabupaten Banyumas memiliki pandangan baru terhadap tradisi begalan. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa: 1) Proses pelaksanaan tradisi begalan oleh sanggar Sekar Kantil terdiri dari dua tahapan yaitu tahap persiapan dan tahap pelaksanaan. Tahap persiapan dilakukan oleh pelaku tradisi begalan untuk mempersiapkan segala sesuatu yang dibutuhkan dalam pelaksanaan tradisi begalan. Tahap pelaksaaan merupakan tahap dimana pelaku tradisi begalan melaksanakan pementasan tradisi begalan pada pernikahan masyarakat Banyumas. 2) Redefinisi makna tradisi begalan yang diberikan oleh sanggar Sekar Kantil terhadap tradisi begalan adalah pada arti tradisi begalan yang sebelumnya berasal dari kata begal yang artinya rampok menjadi besan gawa lantaran. Redefinisi juga diberikan kepada nama pelaku tradisi begalan yaitu danabau dan juru mertani serta penjelasan ubo rampe tradisi begalan yang dilaksanakan oleh sanggar Sekar kantil menggunakan sanepan atau othak athik gathuk.Kata kunci: Tradisi Begalan, Makna, Sanggar ABSTRACT Begalan tradition is one of the marriage traditions that exist in the Banyumas Regency society which is full of meaning and advice for newly married brides. Sekar Kantil Studio as one of the studios that still preserves as well as acting as a shelter for a number of performers of the begalan tradition in Banyumas Regency has a new view of the begalan tradition. The results of the research show that: 1) The process of implementing the begalan tradition by the Sekar Kantil studio consists of two stages: the preparatory stage and the implementation stage. The preparatory stage is carried out by the performers of the begalan tradition to prepare everything needed in the implementation of the begalan tradition. The implementation stage is the stage where the performers of traditions carry out the performance of traditions at the Banyumas community wedding. 2) The redefinition of the meaning of the tradition given by the Sekar Kantil studio to the tradition is that the tradition is derived from the word “begal” which means “robber” into “besan gawa lantaran”. Redefinition was also given to the names of performers of the begalan tradition, Danabau and Juru mertani, and also the explanation of the ubo rampe of the tradition carried out by the Sekar Kantil studio using sanepan or othak atihk gathuk.Keywords: Begalan Tradition, Meaning, Studio

PurposeThis study aims to quantitatively classify the articles with risk-taking and risk aversion keywords and to investigate whether there is a similar emphasis in articles as parallel to the change in risk appetite in the market in the period before the crisis (bubble period) and after the crisis.Design/methodology/approachIn this study, a bibliometric analysis of the articles in which the keywords risk-taking and risk aversion are mentioned together with the word finance in the journals scanned in the Web of Science between 2004 and 2012 was performed. In this context, 936 articles were specified. Analyses were made using the CiteSpace Java program.FindingsThe three journals with the most articles with these characteristics are Journal of Banking and Finance, Journal of Financial Economics and Strategic Management Journal. Along with these two main keywords, the other two most used keywords were “model” and “performance”. In addition, the keywords “attitude”, “corporate governance”, “choice” and “determinant” were used more in the post-crisis period. On the other hand, concepts such as investor sentiment or emotions were not amongst the 10 most frequently used keywords during the nine years. This can be considered as an indicator that risk is being modelled, but emotions are relatively neglected. As a result, the findings of this study show that academic papers do not develop in connection with the mood and excitement in the market.Originality/valueThis study is one of the first studies to examine the reflection of risk appetite in the market on academic papers on financial risk-taking and aversion and to investigate whether the situation in the market and the development in publications are related.

Two principal strains of ethical thought are evident in Indian religious and philosophical literature: one, central to Hinduism, emphasizes adherence to the established norms of ancient Indian culture, which are stated in the literature known as the Dharmaśāstras; another, found in texts of Buddhism, Jainism and Hinduism alike, stresses the renunciation of one’s familial and social obligations for the sake of attaining enlightenment or liberation from the cycle of rebirth. The Dharmaśāstras define in elaborate detail a way of life based on a division of society into four ‘orders’ (varṇas) – priests, warriors, tradesmen and servants or labourers – and, for the three highest orders, four ‘stages of life’ (āśramas). Renunciation is valid only in the final two stages of life, after one has fulfilled one’s responsibilities as a student of scripture and as a householder. The various traditions that stress liberation, on the other hand, advocate total, immediate commitment to the goal of liberation, for which the householder life presents insuperable distractions. Here, the duties of the householder are replaced by the practice of yoga and asceticism. Nevertheless, specific ethical observances are also recommended as prerequisites for the achievement of higher knowledge through yoga, in particular, nonviolence, truthfulness, not stealing, celibacy and poverty. The liberation traditions criticized the system of the Dharmaśāstras for being overly concerned with ritual and external forms of purity and condoning – indeed, prescribing – the killing of living beings in Vedic sacrifices; but it was only in the Dharmaśāstras that the notion of action solely for duty’s sake was appreciated. The Hindu scripture the Bhagavad Gītā (Song of God) represents an effort to synthesize the two ideals of renunciation and the fulfilment of obligation. It teaches that one should integrate yoga and action in the world. Only when acting out of the state of inner peace and detachment that is the culmination of the practice of yoga can one execute one’s duty without regard for the consequences of one’s actions. On the other hand, without the cultivation of inner yoga, the external forms of renunciation – celibacy, mendicancy, asceticism – are without significance. It is inner yoga that is the essence of renunciation, yet yoga is quite compatible with carrying out one’s obligations in the world.

In this paper, I explain the problem of the dreamer in the Zhuangzi. I aim to show that no difference exists between dreaming states and waking states because we have a fluctual relationship with these two stages. In both, “we are dreaming.” Put another way, from a psychoanalytical point of view, one stage penetrates the other and vice versa. The difference between dreaming and non-dreaming disappears because dreaming is a structural process. Also, from a psychoanalytical perspective, all confirmations and negations about dreams and non-dreams leads to one point: the being, or rather the becoming, of the subject. How does this solve the problem of the True Person/True Human Being (zhenren真人)? Does such a person have dreams or not? Does the True Person sleep without dreams, as we find in the Zhuangzi? From a psychoanalytic perspective, this is not possible. To prove this, I will present few passages from the Zhuangzi and offer a psychoanalytic explanation of them based on Jacques Lacan’s theory of the fantasy and desire.

Typically, Christian theology includes an understanding of human afterlife consisting of two stages. The first is a disembodied existence as an immaterial being in the time between death and resurrection. Normally, it’s affirmed that some disembodied humans go to Heaven/Paradise between one’s death and resurrection; this is a state I call The Intermediate State. The second stage is the bodily resurrection. In this paper, I focus on The Intermediate State. Though the majority of the Christian tradition affirms it, I think it’s mistaken. To show two reasons why, I argue that a traditional metaphysics of human persons deployed to explicate The Intermediate State brings with it one or the other of at least two untoward consequences for Christian theology.

The Civil Procedure Rules 1998 (CPR) require the parties to give advance notice to their opponents of all the material documentation in their control. This is done in two stages. At the first stage the parties send each other lists of documents, a process called ‘disclosure’. The second stage is ‘inspection’, which is the process by which the other side can request copies of documents appearing in the list of documents, typically with photocopies being provided by the disclosing party. This chapter discusses these processes. It covers lawyers’ and clients’ responsibilities; the stage when disclosure takes place; disclosure orders; standard disclosure; menu option disclosure; duty to search; list of documents; privilege; inspection; orders in support of disclosure; documents referred to in statements of case, etc.; admission of authenticity; and collateral use.

It was found in a previous work that the Al–Si alloy could spontaneously infiltrate into carbon preforms in air. In this study, the initiation stage of the infiltration process was investigated in detail through two different infiltration experiments. In one experiment, carbon preforms were fully dipped into an alloy bath that was exposed to air, and in the other experiment a carbon preform was only partially dipped into an alloy bath that was protected with a flowing Ar or N2 gas. Experimental results have suggested that the initiation of infiltration is controlled by the pressure of oxidizing gases such as O2 or CO at the infiltration front and is not affected by the presence or absence of N2 gas. The critical pressure of oxidizing gases is estimated to be on the order of 10−4 atm for systems investigated in our experiments. An effective way to reduce the O2 or CO pressure is to flush a preform with nonoxidizing gases during or before infiltration, or to use an active metal to reduce the O2 pressure and thus the corresponding CO pressure.
