Development-induced displacement debate has attracted academicians, planners and policymakers in the last hundred years because of its contradictory connotation. The twentieth century is considered to be the period of unprecedented economic development in many areas of the world. Megaprojects, like irrigation projects and large dams, have become symbols of economic development; apart from generating energy, these projects have also generated employment and income for the people affected. Post-Independence India has witnessed a large number of development projects for fulfilling the socio-economic needs of a different section of society residing in different parts of the country. Efforts have been made by government authorities for the promotion of major, medium and small-scale developmental projects in sectors like irrigation, industries, power, transportation and so on. However such mega-development projects involve the acquisition of land from common and poor people resulting in forced mass displacement which disrupts the socio-economic fabric and spoils the environmental flavour of the surrounding areas. A large number of people are deprived of their cultural identities and livelihood primarily as a direct consequence of land acquisition. The experiences suggest that the long drawn-out process of displacement has caused widespread traumatic psychological and socio-cultural consequences including the dismantling of traditional production systems, desecration of ancestral sacred zones, graves and places of worship, scattering of kinship groups, disruptions of the family system and informal social network ( Kothari, 1995 . Economic & Political Weekly, 31(24), 1476–1485). Under this type of parochial treatment, the fundamental goal of economic development, that is, to promote the welfare and wellbeing of the people remains a daydream, and the vulnerable groups of human society are denied of their fundamental/human rights and have to bear the situation at the cost of development.

The article explores how the European populist radical right uses references to rights and freedoms in its political discourse. By relying on the findings of the existing research and applying the discourse-historical approach to electoral speeches by Marine Le Pen and Jarosław Kaczyński, the leaders of two very dissimilar EU PRR parties, the Rassemblement National and the Prawo i Sprawiedliwość, the article abductively develops a functional typology of references to rights and freedoms commonly used in discourses of European PRR parties: it suggests that PRR discourses in Europe feature references to the right to sovereignty, citizens’ rights, social rights, and economic rights. Such references are used as a coherent discursive strategy to construct social actors following the PRR ideological core of nativism, authoritarianism, and populism. As the PRR identifies itself with the people, defined along nativist and populist lines, rights are always attributed to it. The PRR represents itself as the defender of the people and its rights, while the elites and the aliens are predicated to threaten the people and its rights. References to rights in PRR discourses intrinsically link the individual with the collective, which allows to construct and promote a populist model of ethnic democracy.

Opening ParagraphThe following remarks are not addressed to specialists, but to those Europeans and Africans working in Africa who have for professional reasons an interest in getting to know the native better and, if possible, in making this knowledge available to a wider circle. This applies pre-eminently to missionaries. They, more than any other body of men, have an interest in studying the people among whom they work. It is their aim to transform the inner life of the tribe and of the individual. They are co-operating in creating a new religious, moral, and often social order. Only those who know the traditional environment of the native have the opportunity and the right of effecting such a transformation, as they are thus in a position to forge links between the old and the new, and in consequence will make the new ideas develop naturally from the old ways of thought. Old traditions must not be pushed on one side and ignored, on the contrary they should be carefully studied to see if there is not embedded in them something that can be incorporated in the new order, or something that has to be transformed.

Purpose: This paper aims to gather information about the management of ZISWAF through literature review. Methods: This study uses a qualitative approach to describe findings from facts and reality in society with a phenomenology approach. A literature review and documentation are conducted to collect the data. Finding: ZISWAF funds can be maximized for the economic development of the people, but currently these funds are still much engaged in the area of social service activities, charity assistance, compensation for orphans, Madrasah development, and others. Even tend to ignore the interests of other Muslims such as legal aid, child protection, public policy advocacy, women's empowerment, and several other important agendas, still lacking support from the utilization of philanthropic funds in addition to efforts to find out the potential of Islamic philanthropy and its impact on the economic development of the people, especially poor people or poor people.

This article is devoted to the problem of institutional provision of socio-economic development of territorial communities in Ukraine, analysis of the peculiarities of administrative and territorial modernization at the regional level, streamlining of the system and structure of local authorities, as well as substantiation of the basic principles that are intended to ensure the effectiveness of institutional modernization of territorial communities in Ukraine . The system of local self-government does not meet the needs of society. Local governments do not have the necessary levers of influence, properly fulfill their functions in most of the territorial communities, do not ensure the creation and maintenance of a suitable living environment, which is necessary for the full development of the person, the protection of his rights, self-realization and providing the population with local self-government available administrative, social And other services in certain areas. The formation of self-sufficient, active and active territorial communities in Ukraine is a determining factor in the democratization of Ukrainian society and the realization of the constitutionally enshrined right of the people as the only source of power in our state. It is important for communities to create appropriate government institutions that are accountable to them and are in control, and which are actually effective. A territorial community is a collection of citizens of Ukraine who live together in a rural or urban settlement, have their collective interests and legal status, which is determined by law. Unlike a simple territorial unit, a settlement that has the status of a territorial community is given certain rights. First of all, this is the right to self-government. The united territorial communities will become a territorial unit of regional subordination. The institutional provision of territorial communities in Ukraine requires not only theoretical reflection and substantiation. Any theories are only worth something when they are tested in practice.

<strong>Indonesian</strong><br />Konsep ekonomi sirkuler sebenarnya telah dilakukan sejak lama di Indonesia, khususnya pada industri besar dan menengah, namun belakangan ini perencanaan pembangunan ekonomi kurang memperhatikannya.  Perusahaan-perusahaan pabrik kertas dan perkebunan besar termasuk diantara usaha ekonomi yang melaksanakan konsep ini.  Pada skala ekonomi yang lebih kecil dalam bidang pertanian, kerjasama antara perusahaan besar dengan pertanian rakyat sudah berlangsung dengan baik, memberikan keuntungan ekonomi, memperbaiki kualitas lingkungan dan menjanjikan persaingan yang kompetitif. Masyarakat sebenarnya sudah menerapkan konsep ekonomi sirkuler pada sistem usahatani terintegrasi yang mereka lakukan,  namun  perkembangannya masih kurang memuaskan. Faktor-faktor yang terkait dengan kelembagaan sangat berperan dalam mempromosikan konsep ekonomi sirkuler ini di pedesaan dan menjadi penentu keberhasilan program kemitraan hingga mencapai level tertentu.  Melalui kerjasama model kemitraan sebagai perwujudan konsep ekonomi sirkuler, ketiga pilar ekonomi, yakni lembaga pemerintah, sektor swasta, dan masyarakat harus saling mendukung dan berpartisipasi menurut kapasitasnya masing-masing memberikan sumbangan pada pembangunan ekonomi regional. Pemerintah sebagai fasilitator dan regulator, perusahaan swasta sebagai penghela usaha, dan masyarakat sebagai pemasok bahan baku atau pelaku usaha kecil harus saling berinteraksi, bekerjasama dan berpartisipasi dalam program pembangunan ekonomi.  Makalah ini menjelaskan faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi konsep ekonomi sirkuler untuk mempercepat bangkitnya ekonomi rakyat melalui kemitraan agribisnis.<br />    <br /><br /><strong>English</strong><br />Circular economy concept has been less considered in the global framework of economic development in Indonesia during the past decade, although the concept has been continually applied in many medium and large industries.  Pulp and paper enterprises and estate crops agro-industries are among the companies included in this economic trend.  To a smaller economic development, the implementation of circular economy movement in especially agricultural fields has been benefiting rural people, enhancing quality of environment, and promising competitive advantage. Small-scale integrated farming systems have been widely adopted this concept but lack of improvement. Institutional factors have played significant role in promoting circular economy in rural areas.  Institutional role, in this context, is very instrumental to gear regional development towards certain level of improvement.  Through circular economy partnership, the three pillars of development: government, private sector, and rural people are each in the right position to lead in every steps of regional economic development program. These institutions are expected to function as regulator agency to facilitate related activities, as enterprise organization to give hand to initiate and develop certain production, and as supporting society to participate in any programs/activities to achieve certain goals.  This paper addresses influencing factors to promote circular economy to accelerate the revival of people’s regional economy through agribusiness partnership.

With meagre capital investment but with, supposedly, higher labour pro¬ductivity than in agriculture, small-scale industries can be an important source of employment as well as a healthy contributor to industrial production in a developing country like Nigeria. A study of the Pakistan-Indian situation has shown that normally the highest employment per unit of capital is found in very small firms (of 20 or less workers). Such firms sometimes have the distinct short-term advantage of both lower capital-labour and capital-output ratios than larger establishments [20]. In fact, if the small-scale industrial sector is encouraged within a favourable economic environment, it can play an important role in economic development at least in the transitional state.

Small-scale product development is not for everyone, and it needs a high level of discipline, dedication, persistence, and creativity as well as a lot of work. Before setting up a small-scale business, one needs seed money, physical location of the business venture, construction work, equipment/machinery maintenance, management skills, accounting skills, and last but not least, marketing skills. For the development of any area, the small-scale industry development is very important mainly for the income source of the community and for employment opportunities. On the basis of study, four strategies that are used for the development of small-scale industries were found, and these strategies are 1) promotion and development of institutional, business groups, and cooperatives; 2) determination brands; 3) strategy competition with low cost and product development; 4) to improve final access market orientation strategies. On the basis of analysis of these strategies, they are prioritized, and the first priority is strategy.
