Abstrak: Banjir besar melanda bumi Kalimantan Selatan pada awal Januari 2021. Pada saat yang sama, muncul mitos-mitos yang berhubungan dengan banjir besar ini.  Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguraikan mitos yang muncul pada saat banjir, menjelaskan hubungan antara banjir (lingkungan) dan mitos ini, dan mengungkap penyebab pengaruhnya kepada masyarakat. Ada beberapa tahapan dalam penelitian ini; Pertama, mendata mitos-mitos yang muncul pada saat banjir besar bulan Januari 2021; Kedua, menghubungkan dan mencari sumber mitos itu dari sastra lisan di Kalimantan Selatan. Ketiga, Mengungkapkan makna mitos tersebut. Keempat, menganalisis mitos-mitos dengan menggunakan teori ekokritik Garrard. Kelima, menghubungkan antara mitos dengan masyarakat serta pengaruh mitos itu dalam masyarakat. Ada dua mitos yang muncul pada saat banjir di Kalimantan Selatan, yaitu mitos naga dan mitos keladi. Mitos naga bersumber dari adanya cerita naga penunggu Sungai Barito dalam cerita Asal Mula Sungai Barito dan Sungai Amandit dalam cerita Legenda Lok Sinaga. Sementara itu, mitos keladi berkaitan dengan pamali yang dipercaya orang Banjar. Kedua mitos ini merefleksikan kebudayaan Banjar yang berkaitan dengan isu lingkungan. Mitos naga merupakan kritik sosial terhadap kondisi pegunungan Meratus yang sudah memprihatinkan akibat pertambangan dan perkebunan sawit, sedangkan mitos keladi merupakan kritik untuk bersikap adil terhadap hutan. Kedua mitos ini juga menunjukkan sikap urang Banjar yang tidak menyalahkan alam, lingkungan, dan cuaca, tetapi menyalahkan diri sendiri karena tidak mampu merawat alam.Kata kunci: mitos, naga, keladi, banjir, dan kerusakan lingkungan Abstract: A big flood hit South Kalimantan in early January 2021. At the same time, the myths related to this big flood came out. The research objectives are first, to describe the myths that came out during the flood, second, to explain the relationship between floods (environment) and these myths, the third, to reveal the causes of their effects on society. There are several stages in this research; First, to list the myths that emerged during the great flood in January 2021; Second, connecting and finding the source of the myth from oral literature in South Kalimantan. Third, revealing the meaning of the myth. Fourth, analyzing myths using Garrard's eco-critical theory. Fifth, connecting myths with society and the influence of these myths in society. Two myths emerged during the big flood in South Kalimantan, namely the dragon myth and the taro myth. The myth of the dragon comes from the story of the dragon guarding the Barito River in the origin story of the Barito River and the Amandit River in the Legend of Lok Sinaga. The taro myth relates to pamali believed by the Banjar people. These two myths reflect Banjar culture relates to environmental issues. The dragon myth is a social critique of the condition of the Meratus mountains, which is already alarming due to mining and oil palm plantations. Meanwhile, the taro myth is a criticism of being wise to the forest. These two myths also show the attitude of the Banjar people who do not blame nature, the environment, and the weather but blame themselves for ignorance of nature. Key word: myth, dragon, taro flood, and environmental damage

Environment and corruption are two very popular concepts in the last few decades. Both reflect on the negative side in society. Environmental issues are becoming popular because of many environmental problems that arise not only locally, regionally or nationally but also in the international level. Likewise, corruption is widely discussed and demonstrated especially in Indonesia since the reform era, 1998. The relationship between environment and corruption is more of a causal relationship, where the environment plays a role, while corruption is the cause. The form of corruption that causes environmental damage is; 1) granting permission from regional heads to entrepreneurs who are bribed, so that provisions in the licensing process are not considered properly; 2) corruption in the Amdal process, in which employers give bribes to the parties involved in the Amdal process; 3) corruption of illegal levies against entrepreneurs so that entrepreneurs make compensation calculations by way of externality of production costs to the environment, as a consequence of high costs borne by the entrepreneurs. Some examples of corruption cases show the corruption of a certain kind has made the environment a victim. The environmental aspect should be considered in the judicial process of corruption cases that have an impact on the environment, so the public's concern for the environment is getting stronger.

The present article seeks, through a critical evaluation, to analyze the possibility of submitting environmental issues to methods of alternative dispute resolution, such as arbitration, conciliation and mediation. The main difficulties lie in the relationship between arbitration and environmental matters, since the legal requirements to submit a given dispute to arbitration are the negotiability and the ability to be financially expressed of the rights in discussion. The challenge lies in the fact that the environment is known as a collective or common right, so some understand that environmental interests could not be transacted, and that the environment would not have a financial expression; therefore, not fulfilling those two attributes of objective arbitrability. However, it is important to stress that there is a part of the environment that can be negotiated, and has already been routinely transacted. Also, environmental damage clearly has patrimonial dimensions, which can be financially expressed and monetarily valued. Thus, this article’s central discussion revolves around the possibility of submitting interests involving environmental matters to alternative dispute resolution, contributing to the construction of a conciliatory perspective between alternative dispute resolution methods, particularly arbitration, and environmental issues.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the interrelation between women and nature in an animation movie produced by Walt Disney and directed by Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee. The study aims at examining the relationship between women and nature in Walt Disney’s Movie Frozen II (2019), with a special focus on the destruction of nature that occurs in the movie and the role of female characters in repairing the environmental damage. Moreover, Gaard’s theory of Ecofeminism serves as the theoretical framework upon which women and nature relations are examined within the gender and ecological contexts. The study shows that there are environmental issues in the movie as a result of the dominant patriarchal system in which the king is considered as a leader of everything and everyone must obey the King's orders. Furthermore, the study shows that Elsa and Anna have the feminine values to overcoming the existing natural destruction. The results of this study reveal that women can be a leader and also the female character in this movie have feminine values to repair the existing natural destruction and maintaining the nature by reconciling with the 4 supernatural spirits. Hence, the study highlights the domination of women, the role of gender, and the ecological aspects in Frozen II movies that have not been fully explored previously.

The aim of this study is to analyse the relationship between vegetation indices of Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and soil nutrient of oil palm plantation at Felcra Nasaruddin Bota in Perak for future sustainable environment. The satellite image was used and processed in the research. By Using NDVI, the vegetation index was obtained which varies from -1 to +1. Then, the soil sample and soil moisture analysis were carried in order to identify the nutrient values of Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K). A total of seven soil samples were acquired within the oil palm plantation area. A regression model was then made between physical condition of the oil palms and soil nutrients for determining the strength of the relationship. It is hoped that the risk map of oil palm healthiness can be produced for various applications which are related to agricultural plantation.

Research on social and environmental accounting (SEA) has mainly concentrated on disclosure of SEA by corporate bodies, where investigations on ones attitude towards SEA are rarely discussed. SEA is a medium that develops relationships between business and society, community and nature. In addition, SEA involves a concept of sustain ability; where natural resources need to be sustained for the needs of future generations (Alhabshi et al., 2003). SEA also tries to recognise the role of accounting in sustainable development and the use of environmental resources. There are arguments that the young generations today are not fully aware of preserving these natural resources as well as handling social and environmental issues wisely. This perhaps link closely to their belief and cultural background. Hence, this paper examines the influence of gender and belief factors on the undergraduate students’ attitude towards SEA. Four dimensions of belief (fixed ability, quick learning, simple knowledge and certain knowledge) proposed by Schommer (2005) were adapted to analyse how belief factors have influence on their attitude towards SEA. An independent sample t-test was used to examine the relationship between gender and students’ attitude towards SEA. Spearmen’s correlation was employed to show the relationship between belief and attitude towards SEA. The results revealed that gender differences did not show influences on their attitude towards SEA. It was found that there is a significant relationship between belief and students’ attitude towards SEA. Students who believe on the importance of SEA tend to report positive attitude towards SEA. Perhaps findings of this study may provide some information on the SEA education and further be incorporated in the syllabus.

The main objective of this paper is to show how oral literature is engaged by Swazis with regards to environmental sustainability. It demonstrates the relationship between nature and culture as reflected in Swazi oral literature and how indigenous knowledge embedded in this literature can be used to expand the concepts of eco-literature and eco-criticism. The paper argues that the indigenous environmental expertise among the Swazi people, encapsulated in their oral literature, can serve as a critical resource base for the process of developing a healthy environment. Furthermore, the paper contends that eco-criticism, which is essentially a Western concept, can benefit by drawing inspiration from the indigenous knowledge contained in Swazi culture and expressed in their oral literature. The paper concludes by recommending the need to strengthen traditional and customary knowledge and practices by protecting and recognising the values of such systems in the conservation of biodiversity for sustainable development.

Der Beitrag widmet sich der Frage historischer Folgeverhältnisse in der Kunst. Gegenüber dem Gedanken, dass es ein ursprüngliches Werk in der Reihe von Werken gibt, das späteren Werken seinen Sinn gibt, schlägt der Text vor, das Verhältnis umgekehrt zu denken: Im Lichte späterer Werke wird der Sinn früherer Werke neu ausgehandelt. Dazu geht der Text in drei Schritten vor. Im ersten Teil formuliert er unter der Überschrift ›Form‹ in kritischer Abgrenzung zu Danto und Eco mit Adorno den Gedanken, dass Kunstwerke eigensinnig konstituierte Gegenstände sind. Die im Gedanken der Neuverhandlung früherer Werke im Lichte späterer Werke vorausgesetzte Unbestimmtheit des Sinns von Kunstwerken wird im zweiten Teil unter dem Schlagwort ›Zeitlichkeit‹ anhand des Paradigmas der Improvisation erörtert. Der dritte und letzte Teil wendet diese improvisatorische Logik unter dem Label ›Neuaushandlung‹ dann dezidiert auf das Verhältnis von Vorbild und Nachbild an. The article proposes a new understanding of historical succession in the realm of art. In contrast to the idea that there is an original work in the series of works that gives meaning to the works that come later, the text proposes to think it exactly the other way round: in the light of later works, the meanings of earlier works are renegotiated. The text proceeds in three steps to develop this idea. Under the heading ›Form‹ it develops in the first part a critical reading of Danto’s and Eco’s notion of the constitution of the artworks and argues with Adorno that each powerful work develops its own language. In the second part, the vagueness of the meaning of works of art presupposed in the idea of renegotiating earlier works in the light of later works is discussed under the term ›Temporality‹ in terms of the logic of improvisation. The third and final part uses this improvisational logic under the label ›Renegotiation‹ to understand the relationship between model and afterimage in the realm of art.

Running is one of the most popular activities in the world. Runners’ attitudes and behaviors vary depending on their running style. This study aims to construct different measures of running specialization based on the theory of specialization. This study also tests a runner’s stage of specialization segmentation based on recreation specialization and examines the predictive relationship between a runner’s specialization and event attachment. Three groups of sampling data assess the performance of diverse specialization measures for running in three marathon events. First, two surveys were conducted with marathon participants to assess the performance of diverse specialization measures for runners. Second, the third dataset was used to examine the relationship between a runner’s recreation specialization and event attachment.The study results showed that the 15 measures of specialization showed a good fit to the data. Our research showed how runners’ recreation specialization is connected to their event attachment. In addition, this study suggested event management for subdivisions of runners. Its practical implication is that recreation specialization for running can help us understand event attachment.

This chapter summarizes the advancement of duoethnography throughout its fifteen-year history, employing examples from a variety of topics in education and social justice to provide a wide range of approaches that one may take when conducting a duoethnography. A checklist articulates what its cofounders consider the core elements of duoethnographies, additional features that may or may not be employed and how some studies purporting to be duoethnographies may not be so. The chapter indicates connections between duoethnography and a number of methodological concepts including the third space, the problematics of representation, feminist inquiry, and critical theory using published examples by several duoethnographers.

This article discusses the relationship between the kinematic system used in drilling and the quality of through-holes. The drilling was done on a CTX Alpha 500 universal turning center using a TiAlN-coated 6.0 mm drill bit with internal cooling, mounted in a driven tool holder. The holes were cut in cylindrical 42CrMo4 + QT steel samples measuring 30 mm in diameter and 30 mm in length. Three types of hole-drilling kinematic systems were considered. The first consisted of a fixed workpiece and a tool performing rotary (primary) and linear motions. In the second system, the workpiece rotated (primary motion) while the tool moved linearly. In the third system, the workpiece and the tool rotated in opposite directions; the tool also moved linearly. The analysis was carried out for four output parameters characterizing the hole quality (i.e., cylindricity, straightness, roundness, and diameter errors). The experiment was designed using the Taguchi approach (orthogonal array). ANOVA multi-factor statistical analysis was used to determine the influence of the input parameters (cutting speed, feed per revolution and type of kinematic system) on the geometrical and dimensional errors of the hole. From the analysis, it is evident that the kinematic system had a significant effect on the hole roundness error.
