The current coronavirus pandemic is not only a health/healthcare crisis but to a vast extent it will also influence other spheres of life, including social relations, the shape of economy and working models, and natural environment. Sustainable development that relies on the previously mentioned pillars (economy, society, environment) is going to be strongly affected by the virus outbreak. There is a threat that the process of recovering from the corona crisis will accelerate and legitimize the dynamics of surveillance capitalism. A really interesting case is going to be the labor world, where thanks to modern technologies, suppression of personal freedoms and triumph of total surveillance might be particularly easy. However, good scenarios are also plausible. The first 21st century pandemic of that scale may force societies to redefine their current modus operandi and shift capitalism into a more sustainable, humanistic model.

European transport policy for the first half the 21st century assumes creating the transport system organised with the respect of the principle of sustainable development, providing economic, social and ecological needs of the society and supporting construction of the integrated society and entirely integrated and competitive Europe. Applying alternative fuels and drives in public transport vehicles, including the development of electric-powered vehicles is an essential instrument of this policy. In the paper fuels applied in the public transport and alternative drives were described. Methodological establishments of evaluation of the investment's financial and economical effectiveness associated with acquiring public means of transport with the alternative drive were discussed. Using the method of the econometric modelling, operational and maintenance costs of use buses with the conventional and alternative drive were described. They constitute the basis of assessment of the financial effectiveness of replacing conventional vehicles with alternative propulsion vehicles. They pointed to benefits resulting from limiting the influence of public transport using alternative propulsion vehicles on the natural environment. They find expression in decreasing transport's external expenses, confirming the economic effectiveness of their application. A special attention was paid on vehicles with the electric propulsion. Their application in the urban transport is a crucial factor of improvement of the air quality in cities. Based on conducted examinations it was pointed at the purpose of applying means of transport with the alternative drive.

Religion (dharma) plays a vital role in the Hindu (Sanatana) quest for understanding and practicing harmony between nature and humanity that result into the formation of a cosmological awakening, i.e. 'transcending the universe.' The importance and applicability of such new consciousness is a sign in promoting global humanism in the 21st century, where environmental ethics and sustainability are the wheels of making the future more humane and peaceful. Arne Naess, who coined the term 'deep ecology' conceiving humankind as an integral part of its environment, gives credit to Gandhi. Gandhi’s contributions help to re-awaken the human spirit to self-realisation, finally leading to revelation promoting human coexistence with nature sustainably, mostly through re-interpretation of Vedantic thought. Under the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) the ideas of Gandhi are recognised as a path that makes human coexistence stronger, feasible and co-sharedness, sustainable in peace and harmony with nature. This essay presents ecospiritual contextuality and its vitality concerning a sustainable perspective in line with Gandhi's vision and way of life.

Abstract If education is unanimously recognized as a powerful and impactful tool for social advancement, its use in global affairs as a major component has not yet been fully acknowledged. The current world state, with multiplying challenges amidst a global crisis - caused by the fallouts of an unmanageable pandemic - exposed the limits of multilateralism, undermining international cohesion already struggling over geopolitical rivalries and bursting territorial conflicts. Growing gaps between citizens and governing bodies are threatening the very essence of democracy, the quintessence of people representation, the act of being a citizen. If such struggles arise even within states’ borders, needless to say, building a global citizenship feeling of belonging may prove difficult, requiring exceptional efforts and a strong driver, such as education, leaning on an innovative approach. Peacebuilding through education to global citizenship is one of the pillars of the United Nations 2030 Agenda. In this regard this work is directly relevant to the Sustainable Development Goal 4.7 (Education for sustainable development and global citizenship, and the promotion of a culture of peace and non-violence), an indicator building a basis for decision-making and institutional frameworks, reflecting on citizen political involvement on a local/global level, leaning on the tryptic pattern of foundation/adaptation/integration. GCED could be one of the strongest peace advancement tools to think globally and act locally, by integrating emotional intelligence, creating a common shared value, tackling climate change and gender equity, as women are often in the frontline of rising challenges. This work will investigate and analyze the paradigms of GCED in peacebuilding using a cross-national analysis within the framework of digital humanities and peace studies research fields. KEYWORDS: peace, education, peacebuilding, digital citizenship, emotional intelligence, critical thinking, global security, 21st century skills, peacetech, innovation, empowerment

<p class="JurnalASSETSABSTRAK">ABSTRAK</p><p>Artikel ini bertujuan mengonstruksi metodologi untuk memurnikan akuntansi pertanian kembali pada fitrah kesuciannya sehingga dapat menempati strata tertinggi bersama tulisan dan angka, sebagaimana kemunculan pertama kalinya di masa revolusi pertanian 12.000 tahun lalu. Konstruksi metodologi pemurnian akuntansi dilakukan melalui telaah kesejarahan pemikiran Ibnu Khaldun dan konsep pemurnian dalam Islam. Hasil konstruksi menunjukkan bahwa metodologi tazkiyah bersubstansi nilai dinamis berkeadilan bagi individu dan masyarakat serta lingkungan alam, dengan cara melalui penyucian terus-menerus. Temuan konstruksi juga menunjukkan bahwa kesucian akuntansi telah hilang dan tersisih sejak Revolusi Industri yang berorientasi materi dan pertumbuhan (ekonomi). Praksis akuntansi tanpa kesucian mewujud dalam standar IFRS dan PSAK di Indonesia hingga abad 21 berkolaborasi dengan Revolusi Industri 4.0.</p><p class="JurnalASSETSABSTRAK"><em>ABSTRACT</em></p><p><em>This article aims to construct a methodology to refine agricultural accounting back to its nature of holiness so that it can occupy the highest strata along with writing and numbers, as it first appeared during the agricultural revolution 12,000 years ago. The construction of the accounting refinement methodology is carried out through the historical study of Ibn Khaldun's thought and the concept of purification in Islam. The results of the construction show that the tazkiyah methodology has a dynamic value of justice for individuals and communities and the natural environment, by means of continuous purification. The construction findings also show that the sanctity of accounting has been lost and marginalized since the material revolution and growth (economic) orientation. Accounting practices without holiness embodied in IFRS and PSAK standards in Indonesia until the 21st century in collaboration with the Industrial Revolution 4.0.</em></p>
