This study aims to determine the competitive and comparative advantages of sweet potato farming and to analyze government policies and their relation to the competitiveness of sweet potato farming in the Karanganyar district. The data analysis method used is the Policy Analysis Matrix (PAM) method. The determination of the sample areas was carried out deliberately in the Tawangmangu, Ngargoyoso, and Jumantono Districts, Karanganyar Regency. The respondents were 60 farmers. The results showed that the private profit was IDR 22,459,017.68 and a PCR value of 0.49, then the social benefit is IDR 71,826,979.74 and a DRCR value of 0.23 which means that the sweet potato commodity also has a competitive and comparative advantage. The output policy parameter consists of an output transfer of –IDR 49,894,031.87 and an NPCO ratio of 0.48, which means output policy has not been effective, indicated by the low domestic sweet potato price. The Input policy parameters consist of an Input transfer value of –IDR 804,269.45, an NPCI ratio of 0.54, and a factor transfer value of IDR 278,199.64, which means Input policy has protection from the government, fertilizer subsidies, and non-tradeable Inputs subject to land tax. The Input-output policy parameters consist of a net transfer of IDR 49,367,962.06, an EPC value of 0.48, and an SRP value of -0.52, which means the Input-output policy has not been provided economic incentives, as a result, farmers spend higher production costs.

The article explores the dynamics of creating favorable environment for doing business in Ukraine as a key characteristic of business development. The study offers interpretations to the concepts of «incentive», «stimulation» and «economic incentive» along with presenting a salary survey of the highest paid top executives and the net profit of the largest domestic state-owned companies. One of the basic challenges for the national economy development is achieving high standards of living, in particular high income of citizens. Salary is a major source of income for hired personnel. However, for an employer, remuneration, as well as any type of material reward is a stimulating tool for staff to attain the company goals, on the one hand, and an element of production costs, on the other. Thus, building an optimal system of economic incentives accommodates the interests of all stakeholders in the labor process: employees, employers and the government as a whole. A top manager is one of the most critical elements of the company human capital, while personnel costs is a specific type of investment in the overall structure of the incentive system. The national legislation allows business owners not to disclose data on bonuses and salaries of their top managers. To date, the common practice of state-owned enterprises in paying bonuses to top executives is not to disclose the criteria of such remunerations which eventually might lead to a situation when heads of loss-making enterprises can receive bonuses.

Health is the basic right for everybody, therefore every citizen is entitled to get the health care. In enforcing the regulation for Jaringan Kesehatan Nasional (National Health Supports), it is heavily influenced by the foreign interests. Economically, this program does not reduce the people’s burdens, on the contrary, it will increase them. This means the health supports in which should place the government as the guarantor of the public health, but the people themselves that should pay for the health care. In the realization of the health support the are elements against the Syariah principles. Indonesian Muslim Religious Leaders (MUI) only say that the BPJS Kesehatan (Sosial Support Institution for Health) does not conform with the syariah. The society is asked to register and continue the participation in the program of Social Supports Institution for Health. The best solution is to enforce the mechanism which is in accordance with the syariah principles. The establishment of BPJS based on syariah has to be carried out in cooperation from the elements of Social Supports Institution (BPJS), Indonesian Muslim Religious (MUI), Financial Institution Authorities, National Social Supports Council, Ministry of Health, and Ministry of Finance. Accordingly, the Social Supports Institution for Helath (BPJS Kesehatan) based on syariah principles could be obtained and could became the solution of the polemics in the society.

Facing the decisive struggle between Nazism and Soviet communism for dominance in Europe, in 1942/43 Polish communists sojourning in the USSR espoused anti-German concepts of the political right. Their aim was an ethnic Polish ‘national communism’. Meanwhile, the Polish Workers’ Party in the occupied country advocated a maximum intensification of civilian resistance and partisan struggle. In this context, commentaries on the Nazi judeocide were an important element in their endeavors to influence the prevailing mood in the country: The underground communist press often pointed to the fate of the murdered Jews as a warning in order to make it clear to the Polish population where a deficient lack of resistance could lead. However, an agreed, unconditional Polish and Jewish armed resistance did not come about. At the same time, the communist press constantly expanded its demagogic confrontation with Polish “reactionaries” and accused them of shared responsibility for the Nazi murder of the Jews, while the Polish government (in London) was attacked for its failure. This antagonism was intensified in the fierce dispute between the Polish and Soviet governments after the rift which followed revelations about the Katyn massacre. Now the communist propaganda image of the enemy came to the fore in respect to the government and its representatives in occupied Poland. It viewed the government-in-exile as being allied with the “reactionaries,” indifferent to the murder of the Jews, and thus acting ultimately on behalf of Nazi German policy. The communists denounced the real and supposed antisemitism of their adversaries more and more bluntly. In view of their political isolation, they coupled them together, in an undifferentiated manner, extending from the right-wing radical ONR to the social democrats and the other parties represented in the underground parliament loyal to the London based Polish government. Thereby communist propaganda tried to discredit their opponents and to justify the need for a new start in a post-war Poland whose fate should be shaped by the revolutionary left. They were thus paving the way for the ultimate communist takeover

Dr. C.K. Clarke (1857-1924) was one of Canada’s most prominent psychiatrists. He sought to improve the conditions of asylums, helped to legitimize psychiatry and established formal training for nurses. At the beginning of the 20th Century, Canada experienced a surge of immigration. Yet – as many historians have shown – a widespread anti-foreigner sentiment within the public remained. Along with many other members of the fledgling eugenics movement, Clarke believed that the proportion of “mental defectives” was higher in the immigrant population than in the Canadian population and campaigned to restrict immigration. He appealed to the government to track immigrants and deport them once they showed signs of mental illness. Clarke’s efforts lead to amendments to the Immigration Act in 1919, which authorized deportation of people who were not Canadian-born, regardless of how many years that had been in Canada. This change applied not only to the mentally ill but also to those who could no longer work due to injury and to those who did not follow social norms. Clarke is a fascinating example of how we judge historical figures. He lived in a time where what we now think of as xenophobia was a socially acceptable, even worthy attitude. As a leader in eugenics, therefore, he was a progressive. Other biographers have recognized Clarke’s racist opinions, some of whom justify them as keeping with the social values of his era. In further exploring Clarke’s interest in these issues, this paper relies on his personal scrapbooks held in the CAMH archives. These documents contain personal papers, poems and stories that proclaim his anti-Semitic and anti-foreigner views. Whether we allow his involvement in the eugenics movement to overshadow his accomplishments or ignore his racist leanings to celebrate his memory is the subject of ongoing debate. Dowbiggin IR.

This study focuses on divorces in the Principality of Samos, which existed from 1834 to 1912. The process of divorce is described according to the laws of the rincipality, and divorces are examined among those published in the Newspaper of the Government of the Principality of Samos from the last decade of the Principality from 1902 to 1911. Issues linked to divorce are investigated, like the differences between husbands and wives regarding the initiation and reasons for requesting a divorce. These differences are integrated in the specific social context of the Principality, and the qualitative characteristics are determined in regard to the gender ratio of women and men that is articulated by the invocation of divorce. The aim is to determine the boundaries of social identities of gender with focus on the prevailing perceptions of the social roles of men and women. Gender is used as a social and cultural construction. It is argued that the social gender identity is formed through a process of “performativity”, that is, through adaptation to the dominant social ideals.
