Historical Trajectory

This paper examines a historical trajectory using Kunio Yoshihara’s concept of ersatz capitalism to analyze the development of Indonesian automotive Industry during New Order Era, 1969-1998. The concept analyzes the fact that the ersatz capitalism structure and ersatz capitalists behavior had caused the failure of Indonesian automotive Industry development to achieve self-reliance. Ersatz Capitalism is characterized by patronage between capitalists and bureaucrats, the capitalists reluctance to invest in research and technological development, foreign capital and foreign technology domination, and the domestic capitalists role that act only as a distributor of the manufactured high-technology products of foreign principals instead of doing research and development, in order to seek immediate high profit return with minimum investment. Through the research, this paper analyzes the role of the ersatz capitalists from the various background such as military, Chinese capitalists, and president families and relatives had supported foreign principal domination In Indonesia. Those capitalists are reluctant to support government programs toward self-reliance industry and choose to strengthen their ties with foreign principals, in order to get immediate profit return without much investment and technological research.

Subject. The article addresses the issue of adequate representation of economic dynamics. It considers the need to take into account internal nonlinear processes being an important factor and additional mechanism for managing the economic dynamics. Objectives. The purpose is to rationalize a transition to a new probabilistic mapping of economic dynamics based on modern methods of nonlinear dynamics, which enables to establish the relationship between internal nonlinear processes and macroeconomic indicators of the economic system. Methods. We employ a systems analysis of stages of State-run programs formation, a probabilistic approach to representing the economic dynamics on the basis of fundamental concepts and methods of nonlinear dynamics. Results. We analyzed the cycles of government program formation for developing the high-tech products, established the identity of the main stages of economic and nonlinear dynamics. We also designed a methodology for studying the economic dynamics, which rests on the use of nonlinear dynamics methods. Modeling the processes of economic dynamics made it possible to determine the causes of its sensitivity to initial conditions and exponential divergence of its trajectory at initial stages of government programs formation. The paper presents methods to choose the optimal model of economic dynamics when substantiating and drafting the said programs. Conclusions. The findings can be used to improve methodological tools for managing the creation of high-tech products when elaborating long-term technological programs, to reduce risk inherent in their implementation, to determine methods and ways for sustainable innovative and technological development of the country.

The automotive industry is considered one of the most positive industries in global technological development. Various manufacturers have built and developed automobiles not only to improve the transportation system but also to encourage environmental protection to the full automation of the transportation system. Kosovo doesn’t have any production in automotive industry, but the trading of vehicles is growing every day more and more, where the buying decision is mostly taken by the price of the vehicle and after-sales services. Thus, the aim of this study is to analyze the role of after-sales services and pricing as determinants on consumer buying decision. For this purpose, we analyzed data gathered from Porsche Kosova sh.p.k., own internal research in Kosovo with 5870 customers over the years 2008-2019.  Results show that beside pricing and after-sales services, there are other determinants which affect buyer decision making such are performance, life style, image and so on.

Abstract After the 2011 revolution, the new Libyan authorities launched a political and constitutional debate, which focused, inter alia, on democracy and the role of women in the new order. The autonomous initiatives of women’s associations, which demanded female quotas and equal rights, is an important aspect of the post-revolution reality and highlights the contradictions between the cultural conditions and the policies of the authoritarian past in a society that for the most part aspires for equal rights, the nature of its neo-patriarchy1 notwithstanding. In this article, the authors analyse the historical trajectory of women’s claims and the contributions of women’s associations to the constitutional debate for women’s rights. Women’s activism has characterised this new era, one full of incongruities, such as the opposition of past ideas against innovative, more modernist, progressive ones.

Binding Force

Seventy Years after its proclamation, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, despite not having a binding force for the states, still provides at international level the fundamental text from which the principles and the values for the preservation of liberty and right of people are taken. In this article, the author particularly underlines the importance of Declaration’s article 1, which states: “All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights”. With these words the Declaration presses states to undertake economic policies aimed at achieving economic and social progress for all individuals. Unfortunately, we also have to underline the lack of effective social policies in government programs of the E.U. Member States. The author inquires whether it is left to European judges to affirm the importance of social welfare.

The Ideal

The ideology of state-ibuism has always been interwoven with how the New Order regime until nowadays government constructing the “ideal” role of women in the family and community through the PKK (Pembinaan Kesejahteraan Keluarga) organization. However, in Cangkring Village, Indramayu, the ideology of ibuism works not because of the massive government regulating the role of women through the PKK organization, but it is possible because of the structure of the kampung community itself. Through involved observations and in-depth interviews about a kindergarten in the village, a group of housewives who dedicated themselves to teaching in kindergarten were met without getting paid high. From these socio-cultural phenomenons, this paper will describe descriptively and analytically that housewives in the Cangkring village are willing to become kindergarten teachers because of their moral burden as part of the warga kampung and also from community pressure from people who want their children to be able to read and write.

After had being carried out nationalization and hostility against west countries, the New Order regime made important decision to change Indonesia economic direction from etatism system to free market economy. A set of policies were taken in order private sector could play major role in economic. However, when another economic sectors were reformed substantially, effords to reform the State Owned Enterprises had failed. The State Owned Enterprise, in fact, remained to play dominant role like early years of guided democracy era. Role of the State Owned Enterprises was more and more powerfull). The main problem of reforms finally lied on reality that vested interest of bureaucrats (civil or military) was so large that could’nt been overcome.

Campo de Dalías, located in southeastern Spain, is the greatest European exponent of greenhouse agriculture. The development of this type of agriculture has led to an exponential economic development of one of the poorest areas of Spain, in a short period of time. Simultaneously, it has brought about a serious alteration of natural resources. This article will study the temporal evolution of changes in land use, and the exploitation of groundwater. Likewise, this study will delve into the technological development in greenhouses (irrigation techniques, new water resources, greenhouse structures or improvement in cultivation techniques) seeking a sustainable intensification of agriculture under plastic. This sustainable intensification also implies the conservation of existing natural areas.
