During their complex, initially spontaneous and later predominantly dictated modernisation, the western countries accepted intellectuals into their state apparatuses. As a result, the latter never formed an independent, oppositional group of citizens. They subscribed to various ideological trends while working as intellectuals in the public sphere. Russia, on the other hand, underwent a different process. Under the special circumstances accompanying the development of an autocratically ruled Russian Empire, which was drawn into modernisation processes by orders ‘from above’ (Peter I, Catherine II, Alexander II), the educated stratum organised itself as a particular group of citizens – the intelligentsia. These were crucially defined by their critical attitude to the government. In 1917, following the downfall of the imperial rule, which was incapable of a quick and radical self-reform, this stratum found itself in the ruler’s capacity, but their inability for constructive work soon deprived them of power. They were superseded by professional revolutionaries, who were their rivals in opposing the Empire. Most of the intelligentsia emigrated abroad, where they initially tried to work as they had in Russia, but the new currents in their host countries transformed their status into that of intellectuals. In Soviet Russia, on the other hand, the newly trained intelligentsia gained a different role: they were to ensure a professional construction of socialism. This was likewise the case in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, including Slovenia, where the concept of the intelligentsia first appeared in its Soviet variety, after the Communist revolution.

This article compares the language ideologies of language experts (both academic and non-academic) in online news media in Lithuania, Norway and Serbia. The results will reveal that language is understood in diametrically opposed ways amongst Lithuanian and Serbian academic experts on the one, and Norwegian academic experts on the other hand. Lithuanian and Serbian academic experts are influenced by modernist ideas of language as a single, homogenous entity, whose borders ideally match the borders of an ethnic group. Norwegian academic experts function in the public sphere as those who try to deconstruct the modernist notion of language by employing an understanding of language as a cognitive tool that performs communicative and other functions. On the other hand, non-academic experts in all the three countries exhibit a striking similarity in their language ideologies, as the great majority expresses modernist ideals of language.

Image of maternal love in Grigory Chukhray’s The QuagmireMemories of the Great Patriotic War contributed to the making of a national identity in Soviet Russia, and clear gender roles are evident in Soviet propaganda war art. The image of male soldiers demonstrates the obligation to defend the fatherland against the outside enemy. On the other hand, there are images of a mother cheering for her son or a mother lamenting over a fallen soldier. It is clear that the female image belongs to the reproductive function of motherhood. The establishment presents an ideal and urges the public to internalize it by themselves. Grigory Chukhray’s film The Quagmire’s 1977 mother, however, hides her young son, who was conscripted to the front. The  film casts doubt on the Soviet war myth and asks “Why do mothers have to be reconciled to lose their sons in order to defend the fatherland?” That’s why the military purged the film from the screen. Obraz miłości macierzyńskiej w filmie Grigorija Czuchraja TrzęsawiskoWspomnienia i obrazy Wielkiej Wojny Ojczyźnianej odegrały ważną rolę w kształtowaniu tożsamości obywateli Rosji Radzieckiej. W sowieckiej propagandzie wojennej wyraźnie widać hierarchię genderową. Wizerunek żołnierza mężczyzny odnosi się do obowiązku obrony ojczyzny przed zewnętrznym wrogiem. Natomiast wizerunek matki wiwatującej na cześć zwycięstwa syna lub rodzicielki lamentującej nad poległym żołnierzem kojarzony jest z macierzyństwem. Film Grigorija Czuchraja Trzęsawisko Трясина opowiada historię matki ukrywającej powołanego do wojska i wezwanego na front syna. Film, który wkrótce po premierze wycofano z  dystrybucji, stawia pytania dotyczące funkcjonowania radzieckich mitów wojennych oraz sytuacji kobiet, które nie chcą się pogodzić ze śmiercią swych synów broniących ojczyzny.

Smuggling is a problem that often occurs in Indonesia, so the smuggling problem must receive the full attention of the government to be immediately addressed. As a national legal product based on the Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution, the form of the Proactive and Anticipatory Customs Law is still very simple, on the other hand it must reach a broader aspect to anticipate the development of trade. The method of this research is Library Research and Field Research. The negative impact of smuggling used clothing is very detrimental to the domestic industry and detrimental to the country's income and economy, but on the other hand there are also positive impacts on the poor that benefit from being able to buy ex-foreign goods from smuggling at low prices and higher quality high. As one of the Government Agencies participating in the effort to eradicate the smuggling of used clothing and the public should not be easily tempted by the import price of used clothing which is cheaper than local clothing, because the level of health is not necessarily guaranteed.

The public budget has always been a much debated object at the political level as well as in academia. This is not surprising as it mirrors the political intentions and ideologies of those running the government on the one hand and taking into account that economics is a multiparadigmatic science on the other hand. Against this backcloth, the current unambiguity of budgetary restriction in recent political and scientific debates seems curious. The paper aims at explaining this development and questions its validity by framing a concept of budgetary sustainability on the grounds of a heterodox, post Keynesian model.

The idea itself has been created in the form of regulation in Indonesia, therefore, Indonesia that represented by the government liable to protect and take care of the waifs. In the other hand, the waifs in Indonesia still shown the big number of quantity, it means, there is a problem in the system of handling the waifs that used by the government to fulfill the rights of the waifs.

The Sub-district head is appointed as temporary PPAT based on the provisions of the Act. It is due to there is not enough PPAT in the government area, so the government gives authority to the Sub-district head to serve the community in making deeds related to the transfer of Land Rights. In reality, not all sub-district heads are able to carry out their duties and authority. The constraints are due to the lack of Sub-district head knowledge about the duties and authority as PPAT, the number of Sub-district head duties in the government field which cause the affairs of the process of transferring rights to land are neglected and are often delegated to sub-district staff. Furthermore, the PPAT Deed Forms should not be used again since the enactment of the Regulations of the Republic of Indonesia National Land Number 8 year 2012. However, in reality many temporary PPAT or Sub-district heads still use the old forms which are no longer specified in the applicable Regulations. The deed made must be an Authentic Deed as stipulated in Article 1868 of the Civil Code concerning the Authentic Deed, namely a deed which is in the form prescribed by law, made by or before the public officials where the deed is made. On the other hand, the position as a PPAT must be in accordance with PP Number 37 year 1998 concerning the Regulation of the Position of the Land Deed Officials Keywords: Sub-district head Authority; Temporary PPAT; deed

Identity is not a fixed and frozen prison-house for the self, but a liquid continuum, affected and shaped by the ‘outside’ or the world. The self, which is situated and which undergoes revisions and transformations, keeps identity as a frame within which it makes sense of things. On the one hand, there is a ‘history’ within which an identity is rooted and through which meaning-making is made possible, and on the other hand, every person aspires to be a ‘universal’ and recognition-worthy human being. Both inherent identity and inherent universality of the self should be considered in their interactions in the public sphere, which has been traditionally viewed as a space of discrete individualities. The ontological force of this argument aside, the paper demonstrates that reduction of an identity without crediting its aspiration for universality and consideration of universality without crediting the historical underpinnings of identity are both acts of violation.

AbstractJudicialization in this article is the predisposition to find a solution in adjudication to types of dispute that had been settled previously in a socio-economic-political framework. “Legislative judicialization” (or over-legalization) is also a predisposition according to which the variegated spheres of our lives need to be regulated through a formal code of laws. In the political arena the questions relating to judicialization are: Is the assumption that legal decisions are able to save politics – mainly democratic values and abiding by the derived rules of the game – a valid one? Can one institution of the political system (broadly defined) – the law court – rescue the two other, the parliament and the government, in difficult times? Assuming that “successful” intervention by the judicial institution will cause the other two to abide strictly by the rule of law, could it at the same time curb their effective steering capacity, which is their main task? And conversely, if the steering capacity and the leadership ability to make “good” decisions are so flimsy – would it not be desirable to have judicial review to ensure that the political institutions at least make “proper” decisions that are not extremely unreasonable? These are the main questions discussed in this article.The findings regarding the judicialization of politics point out not only to the eagerness of the law courts, but mainly to the weakening of the political system, to the point where the Knesset, the Government and the political parties find it most difficult to function without the assistance given them by the law courts. And yet, did the judicial branch “save” the other two branches? Obviously, this has not happened thus far. In Israel, a profound democratic deficit exists in the political system due to the fact, among other things, that the political institutions are incapable of coping with the continuing internal and external crises. In Israeli society, judicialization is but a symptom of a wide-ranging predicament that requires a richer bill of fare than more laws and more adjudication. It consists of: the social grounding of democratic values; renewal of trust and confidence in the political institutions; strengthening the political parties; recognition of the contribution of civil organizations and the media; strengthening the local authorities, and more. This is the real arena, because there is a breaking point to the over-judicialization of the public sphere beyond which lies total anarchy.

The existence of street vendors can reduce the burden of government in overcoming unemployment. Due to the existence of street vendors, can absorb labor that can not be accommodated by the formal sector. But on the other hand, the presence of street vendors often disrupt the activities in the public sphere area such as sidewalks. Therefore, the government of Salatiga City made a policy by improving the function of the sidewalk and sterilize it to be enjoyed again by pedestrians.
