AbstractGlobalization in the digital age and the rapid development of ICT (Information and Communication Technology) make information andcommunication easier and faster and bigger. With the development oftechnology today, it has two sides like a blade, on the one hand can be positivewhen used for the right thing, but not denied on the other hand can be negativeif used for the wrong thing. Among the downside is the massive disseminationof information but not based on the fact that it is hoaxed. the meaning of hoaxas mentioned by the Tafseer, especially in the letter of An-Nūr verses 11-19 is aslander or accusation, hoax is also a conspiracy to defeat the enemy oropponent, and also the nature of the hoax itself is news that is rapidlyspreading and able to influence.AbstrakGlobalisasi di era digital dan perkembangan TIK (Teknologi Informasi danKomunikasi) yang begitu pesat menjadikan informasi dan komunikasi semakinmudah dilakukan dan terus berkembang dalam skala yang sangat cepat danbesar. Dengan semakin berkembangnya teknologi saat ini, maka hal tersebutmemiliki dua sisi layaknya mata pisau, di satu sisi bisa bersifat positif ketikadigunakan untuk suatu hal yang benar, namun tidak dinafikan di sisi lain dapatbersifat negatif jika digunakan untuk hal yang salah. Diantara sisi negatifnyaadalah penyebaran informasi yang secara masif namun tidak didasari denganfakta yang disebuk dengan istilah hoax. makna hoax sebagaimana yang telahdisebutkan oleh Ahli Tafsir khususnya dalam surat An-Nūr ayat 11-19 adalahsuatu fitnah atau tuduhan, hoax juga merupakan konspirasi untuk mengalahkanlawan atau musuh, dan juga sifat dari hoax sendiri adalah berita yang cepatmenyebar dan mampu mempengaruhi.Keywords: Hoax, QS.

Many times, in the attempt to win or to maintain an advantageous position on the market, the economic agent will use a whole arsenal of practices (inclusively and mostly from the marketing field), most of them anticompetitive, with a negative impact on the business environment, which also affects the well-being of the consumer. The policy in the field of competition is the one that defines these types of behaviour and penalizes them depending on the importance of their negative impact, by creating a complex and coherent legislative and institutional mechanism. The right enforcement of the competition policy at the national level is the key in this process, but this should be coordinated with the regional and international objectives and regulations in this field. Romania is facing a double challenge: on the one side, it had to set up a competition policy, which was almost ignored before the90s, on the other side, it had to comply, recently, with high standards in the field, as an EU candidate. Now, as a member state, the promotion of a competition culture becomes a must, along with the design of an adequate system of information and knowledge dissemination for all of those involved. The paper is based on a original and qualitative research and aims at emphasising the increased necessity of the promotion of a competition culture for the competitiveness of the Romanian business environment on the European level in the new context of accession. This will help Romanian business to face the competition challenges within a more extended single European market, as an essential issue of the free market economy status recently granted, and accordingly to the most important EU objectives set up at Lisabon to become the most competitive economy in the world up to 2010.

Descriptive Method

The development of information and communication technology (ICT) has been implemented in various fields, including in government. To support the implementation of e-Government (e-Gov) and improve the quality of public services, many technology-based applications have been created by government agencies, both central and local governments. DISKOMINFOARPUS Cimahi City built an application called SILPa KAMI to support the vision of Cimahi Smart City. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method that aims to determine how the implementation and sustainability of the SILPa KAMI application and what kind of characteristics the agencies should have so it can replicate this application. The results of the study reveal that the implementation of the SILPa KAMI application is running well because it has fulfilled various success factors of e-Gov implementation which is also marked by the sustainability even though there are still obstacles. Also, the use of ICT based on the e-leadership aspect, the information network infrastructure aspect, the information management aspect, the business environment aspect, as well as the community and human resources aspect has been optimally utilized. This application is relatively easy to be replicated by other agencies. The agencies that can replicate this application must have the availability of budget, the availability of related facilities and infrastructure and the availability of reliable ICT managers.

This paper studies the effect of digitalization on the perception of corruption and trust in tax officials in Africa. Using individual-level data from Afrobarometer surveys and several indices of digitalization, we find that an increase in digital adoption is associated with a reduction in the perception of corruption and an increase in trust in tax officials. Exploiting the exogeneous deployment of submarine cables at the local level, the paper provides evidence of a negative impact of the use of Internet on the perception of corruption. Yet, the paper shows that the dampening effect of digitalization on corruption is hindered in countries where the government has a pattern of intentionally shutting down the Internet, while countries that successfully promote information and communication technology (ICT) enjoy a more amplified effect.

This chapter explores the role played by Information and Communication Technology tools in the management of indigenous Knowledge in general. Of importance to note, therefore, is the fact that the emergence of Information and Communication Technology tools has opened new avenues in Indigenous Knowledge Management (IKM) which have the potential of playing important roles in the society by making the valuable knowledge available to everyone who recognizes and uses it. Given the nature of indigenous knowledge which is commonly exchanged through personal communication and demonstration exemplified as deriving from the master to the apprentice, from the parents to the children, from the one neighbour to the other and so on. Information and Communication Technology tools appear to be providing as a solution in forestalling the possible extinction of IK.

AbstractMajor deficits, known as innovation gap or renewal paradox, related to the project-based production structures in construction, result in high knowledge waste and efficiency loss. Current innovation dynamics aim at overcoming these structural disadvantages by designing products and services set apart from the one-off project logic. They are heavily influenced by cross-sectoral knowledge combinations coming from the automotive industry, the service sector, engineering or information and communication technology (ICT), as well as by knowledge combinations which stem from integrating different trades into the planning process of a construction project. This paper argues that different kinds of knowledge combinations initiate various degrees of change within the existing sectoral structures. They indicate the sector’s path plasticity.
