Capital Development

Throughout the history of the pre-independence and post-independence Indonesia. The role of Islamic philanthropy has made essential contributions in the welfare and empowerment of the public. Not in doubt that the naked eye can see social and economic inequalities at the moment, nothing else due to swift currents of globalization and the development of the modern world that is unstoppable. This is reflected in the firm stance that is not altruistic individualism around. Islamic philanthropy comes with a carrying value of an underlying morality of the humanist spirit (human), that the human being with another human being the same, so it is vital to eliminate all forms of discrimination, mainly to maintain the sustainability of human life on this earth. Social capital development in the era of globalization (globalization) is in need, given the free world economy (free market) is unbelievably intense competition and cruel. One of the foundations of social capital (human capital) is in addition to the knowledge and skills is the ability of people to make associations (associated) with each other. Programs of BAZNAS with the distribution of zakat to the education sector is large enough, then the system development offered by the National Zakat Agency by allocating funds for charity, which reached 20.35 percent, or about 500 billion in the education sector, the other not only to achieve sustainable development which manifests itself with a system of human resource development through the provision of education funds to mustahik, either directly in the form of scholarships, research, support the renovation of schools, or the establishment of schools in the direct management BAZNAS. Modernization and globalization are progressing very significant, if not in conjunction with increased knowledge and the quality of education for the community itself, then a structured poverty will remain rampant.

The Difference

Muchos, en el debate contemporáneo, pretenden mostrar que la bioética requiere de una especial sensibilidad a los progresos teóricos y sociales del mundo moderno. Si la bioética no asume como propios los «logros» del «progreso» sino que recae en formas de justificación «superadas» estará mal formulada. A continuación examinaremos precisamente en qué consiste la modernidad ilustrada para luego mostrar que, ante su crisis, sería oportuno intentar pensar la Bioética desde parámetros que no recaigan en su problemática intrínseca sino que logren ofrecer una alternativa real en materia de fundamentación y perspectivas para esta nueva ciencia. Desde el punto de vista muchas cuestiones filosóficas y morales aparecen en este tipo de postura. Sin embargo, son tres aspectos los que me parecen más centrales a esclarecer: 1. la naturaleza del consenso; 2. la posibilidad de una moral objetiva; 3. el fundamento personalista de la vida moral. Más aún, tenemos la impresión que la bioética si se asume como ciencia rigurosa de carácter práctico normativo, no requiere de adjetivos diferenciadores sino que precisamente parte del reto que posee en la actualidad es mostrar su vigor racional y práctico a través de cinco rasgos de explícito cariz personalista pero que han de ser manifestados permanentemente no como un compromiso de escuela sino como un compromiso con la verdad sobre el hombre: 1. la bioética debe construir su normatividad a partir del imperativo que encuentra al reconocer a la persona como una realidad afirmable por sí misma; 2. la bioética ha de distinguir con claridad la diferencia existente entre cosas y personas; 3. la bioética distingue la irreductibilidad de la vida humana a otras formas de vida y a sistemas materiales complejos; 4. la bioética debe reconocer al ser humano como sujeto comunional; 5. la bioética implica un compromiso existencial y práctico a favor de todas las personas, en especial, de los más débiles. ---------- In the contemporary debate, many authors seek to show that the bioethics requires a special sensibility to the theoretical and social progresses of the modern world. If the bioethics doesn't assume the achievements of the "progress" but rather it relapses in outdated justifications it will be not well formulated. The paper deals with what modernity consists and to show, before its crisis, the opportunity to thinking Bioethics from parameters that they are able to offer a real alternative regarding the foundation and the perspectives for this discipline. The author thinks that three aspects are crucial to clarify: 1. the nature of the consent; 2. the possibility of an objective morals; 3. the person-centred foundation of the moral life. Moreover, if bioethics is assumed as rigorous and normative practical science, it doesn't require differentiating adjectives but five features of explicit person-centred look: 1. bioethics should build its normativeness starting from the imperative to recognizing the person like a reality per se; 2. bioethics must distinguish with clarity the difference between things and persons; 3. bioethics distinguishes the irreducibility of the human life to other forms of life and to complex material systems; 4. bioethics should recognize the human being like in-communion subject; 5. bioethics implies an existential and practical commitment in favour of all the persons, especially of the weakest ones.

Apart from the dreaded Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) now ravaging the world, and particularly the African continent, no other scourge has had such a devastating impact on both the ancient and modern world as the scourge of poverty. According to the World Health Organisation, poverty wields its destructive influence at all stages of human life, from the moment of conception to the grave. It conspires with the most deadly and painful diseases to bring a wretched existence to all who suffer from it. The desire to alleviate, or if possible, eliminate poverty, has engaged the attention of successive governments in Nigeria: Civilian, quasi-civilian and military administrations. At present the world is still in search of a solution to global poverty, which is why the United Nations currently puts poverty reduction at the top its agenda. The continual search for ways to achieve poverty alleviation in Nigeria, particularly as it relates to the legal and equitable issues involved, is the topic of this paper. However, first it is important to define terms so as to make for clarity of thought, better understanding and for consensus ad idem.

The article considers the problem of human self-identification in the modern world. The relevance of the study is due to the process of human self-alienation, the loss of the person’s rootedness in his own foundational content stemming from the human nature itself. The specificity of philosophical reflection on human being is shown. The leading approach to the study of this problem is the ascent from the abstract to the concrete, which makes it possible to comprehend human being and the phenomena of time, finitude, and corporeality associated with it as phenomena that identify the truly human principle in us and manifest the ontological meaning itself. The dialectical method and hermeneutic analysis of the texts of contemporary researchers considering the problems of the philosophical bases of the human personality in the modern world are also used in this study. The article analyzes the status of the personality in the modern technogenic world, in which the uncontrolled stream of simulations and imitations, which include the human being becoming alienated, puts on the brink not only a person’s presence in the world, but the world itself as a “native home” of human life. The analysis shows that the possibility of human self-identification in the world is possible only due to the fact that it forms and preserves the human principle in us and is the manifestation of its being. The special role of conscious, sane and responsible action in this process is shown.

Fertility is an inalienable feature of a human being, a fundamental function of sexuality, an attribute of maturity and an element that belongs to the essence of life. Fertility as an attribute of spousal love describes the field of many mutual achievements of a couple. Life processes are thus wisely regulated by nature itself in its biological rhythm. The knowledge of corporality and the rhythms of fertility is a prerequisite for responsible parenthood. Thus, responsible parenthood is an important matter for every married couple and the knowledge of nature is of much help in this area. To get to know nature better one must refer to the natural methods of conception, accepted and recommended by the Church. The aim of this publication is to present the natural methods of planning a family as an alternative to other methods widespread in the modern world which pose a danger to human life, marital bond and human dignity. Despite many publications which raise this issue, the subject of giving life in harmony with nature still remains open and inexhaustible.

Access To Data

Abstract There is no area of human activity that would function today without the involvement of AI technologies. AI, a driving force of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, penetrates modern human life with ever-increasing intensity. As it is claimed, it brings about decision-making efficiency and performance accuracy that has never existed before. At the same time, artificial intelligence creates far-reaching dangers to almost every aspect of the modern world. From the legal point of view, the most eminent ones include: the bias stemming from the inherited historical data that AI tends to repeat and multiply, the problem of the lack of transparency (the “black-box society”) that makes it impossible for a human being to understand how AI arrived at a decision, and the elimination of the human being from the decision-making process, which rises the issue of appropriateness and legitimacy. AI can only be developed when sufficient amount of data is available, and hence the article elaborates on the fundamental role that data plays for the modern world, and how transnational corporations set global rules in relation to collection and access to data in a process that lacks democratic accountability and questions the position of states. The article ends with presenting the UE attempts to address the issues that arise in relation to the unrestricted access to data, invasion of privacy and threats posed by artificial intelligence. It also elaborates on the prominent position that the artificial intelligence holds on the EU political agenda and presents political and legislative actions undertaken by the European Union in this regard.

Integrative Science

This paper attempts to analyze the development of integrative science at two Islamic universities, namely UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta and UIN Malang. The changes are not just ordinary administrative changes, but based on the epistemological basis of integrated scientific development between science and Islam. The changing of IAIN Sunan Kalijaga and STAIN Malang also showed a new relationship between science (general sciences) and Islam, which requiresmutual relations, mutual dialogue, mutual reinforcement to solve the problems of postmodern human life. The purpose of this relation is to create the graduates who are capable of competing in the postmodern world that increasingly sophisticated and advanced science and technology, in addition, the value of religionbased morality is not abandoned, so they become the holistic human being. Tulisan ini mencoba menganalisis pengembangan keilmuan integratif pada dua universitas Islam negeri, yaitu UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta dan UIN Malang. Perubahan keduanya bukanlah hanya perubahan administrasi biasa, tapi didasari oleh basis epistemologi pengembangan keilmuan terintegrasi antara sains dan Islam. Perubahan IAIN Sunan Kalijaga dan STAIN Malang juga menunjukkan adanya relasi baru antara sains (ilmu-ilmu umum) dan Islam, yaitu relasi saling membutuhkan, saling berdialog, saling menguatkan untuk menyelesaikan problema kehidupan manusia postmodern ini. Tujuan relasi ini untuk mewujudkan lulusan yang mampu bersaing di dunia postmodern yang semakin canggih dan maju ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologinya, selain itu nilai moralitas yang berbasis agama tidak ditinggalkan, sehingga menjadi manusia yang utuh.

The Impact

The article examines the impact of digitalization on human life and intellectual experience. The development of computer technology demands an understanding of new aspects of human development and requires a capability to overcome not only external conditions but also ourselves. Entering a new level of development cannot imply a complete rejection of previous dispositions, but should be accompanied by reflection on personal experience and by the quest for new forms of interaction in society and with nature. Communicative and cognitive activity of a person has an ontological basis and relies on processes that actually evolve in nature. Therefore, the creation of new objects is always associated with the properties of natural material and gives rise to new points of support in the development of man. The more audacious his projects, the more important it is to preserve this connection to nature. It is always the human being who turns out to be the initiator who knows how to solve problems. The conformity of complex technical systems to nature is not only a goal but also a value of meaningful construction of development perspectives. The key to the nature orientation of the modern digital world is the human being himself, who keeps all the secrets of the culture of his natural development. Therefore, the proposed by the Russian philosopher V.S. Stepin post-non-classical approach, based on the principle of “human-sizedness,” is an important contribution to contemporary research because it draws attention to the “human – machine” communication, to the relationship between a person and technological systems he created. The article concludes that during digital transformation, a cultural conflict arises: in an effort to solve the problems of the future, a person equips his life with devices that are designed to support him, to expand his functionality, but at the same time, the boundaries of humanity become dissolved and the forms of human activity undergo simplification. Transhumanism engages society in the fight against fears of vulnerability and memory loss and ignores the flexibility and sustainability of natural foundation.

Forest Cover Mapping

The recognition of versatile importance of vegetation for the human life resulted in the emergence of vegetation science and many its applications in the modern world. Hence a vegetation map should be versatile enough to provide the basis for these applications. Thus, a vegetation map should contain not only information on vegetation types and their derivatives but also the geospheric and climatic background. While the geospheric information could be obtained, mapped and generalized directly using satellite remote sensing, a computerized Geographic Information System can integrate it with meaningful vegetation information classes for large areas. Such aft approach was developed with respect to mapping forest vegetation in India at. 1 : 100 000 (1983) and is in progress now (forest cover mapping at 1 : 250 000). Several review works reporting the experimental and operational use of satellite remote sensing data in India were published in the last years (Unni, 1991, 1992, 1994).
