Democracy is widely praised as a great achievement of humanity. However, in recent years there has been an increasing amount of concern that its functioning across the world may be eroding. In response, efforts to combat such change are emerging. Considering the pervasiveness of technology and its increasing capabilities, it is no surprise that there has been much focus on the use of artificial intelligence(AI) to this end. Questions as to how AI can be best utilized to extend the reach of democracy to currently non-democratic countries, how the involvement in the democratic process of certain demographic groups (e.g. ethnic minorities, women, and young people) can be increased, etc. are frequent topics of discussion. In this article I would like not merely to question whether this is desirable but rather argue that we should be trying to envisage ways of using AI for the exact opposite purpose: that of replacing democratic systems with better alternatives.

This study analyzed the hedonist life of the rulers in the Qur’an. Researchers used library research related to hedonism in the perspective of the Qur'an. The method used was the maudhu'i (thematic) method, which is a method in which the mufassir seeks to collect verses from the Qur'an from various surahs and those related to predetermined issues or topics. Allah Almighty has described the nature of the wrongdoers who perform hedonic behavior swaying in pleasure and luxury. Allah Almighty very hates hedonic behavior. Nowadays, hedonism seems to be an ideology for young people. They do not feel taboo to do. They claim themselves as Moslem, but the Moslem lifestyle is not reflected in their daily life. Mainly when they do their business, they change to be more materialistic and satisfy their biological need. They behave into two roles, religion yes and hedonism yes. The hedonism acts as a religious man, but at the same time, they also make status as hedonism. Therefore, when entering the world of hedonists, religion has the right to be defeated or marginalized and replaced by a lifestyle of framed hedonism.

Digital services have significantly transformed the world economy and significantly challenged existing taxation regulations worldwide. The intangible nature of digital services challenges the taxation of conventional services that have a physical location of where the services is performed and where the right of taxation derives from. Therefore, the need for adequate regulations related to the taxation of digital services has become ever more prominent with various proposals and implementations. The article provides a case content – inferential statistics research on determining whether a digital service tax or the nexus of a significant digital presence may be more applicable for overcoming the challenges posed by the digital services. Additionally, the benefits of artificial intelligence methods in assisting in the taxation of digital services are outlined. The results outline strong preference for the digital service tax as a means to overcome the discrepancy between income related taxation frameworks in various jurisdictions and outlines the strong benefits artificial intelligence methods may have in supporting taxation.

Achievement of the right ratio of religious studies and religious education is possible under the condition of integration of mental values of individuals and societies, as well as the gradual formation of a single mental space of civilization. It has been established that the philosophical basis of religious studies is that it can: define and form the correct worldview positions regarding religion; offer the person a system of attitudes that excludes negative fluctuations in the search for an appropriate worldview; regulate the axiological positions in the multi-variance of moral choice. In addition, the philosophical basis of religious studies should help to harmonize the content of this education with personal views on the student's religion. This basis should be grounded in the position that religious studies should not impose a certain view of the religions of the world on young people, but should offer a volume of objectively balanced knowledge of religious world view.

The Impact

The emergence of social media as one of the new media has brought important changes to the world of tourism. Social media has given space to interact with each other. Various types of social media are very popular for young people, including Facebook, Path, Twitter, and Instagram, and others. Social media offers a different experience for tourists in getting information about products and services in tourism. This study aims to examine the impact of social media on tourist behavior. The respondents of this study were tourists who visited the Kakilangit Market, Bantul, Yogyakarta. This study uses quantitative analysis techniques. The results of this study found that social media influences the behavior of tourists in choosing and deciding about the attractions they will visit. The study also found that tourists use social media to communicate, looking for tourist references, as long as they travel. Furthermore, tourists will also share their experiences while traveling on social media. Social media raises the trend of new tourist objects popularized by posting photos and videos by social media users. Photos and videos uploaded on Instagram for example, represent what is owned by a tourist object or even show facts about the condition of a tourist attraction. This certainly will affect the behavior of consumers as tourists so that Instagram provides the possibility of new opportunities and challenges for tourism actors. Tourism actors are required to understand consumer behavior, especially young people as users of social media in order to design the right marketing strategy for their products.

Children's Fiction

As Children’s Laureate 2013–2015, Malorie Blackman raised awareness of the lack of racial diversity in children’s fiction. Underrepresentation of ethnic minorities in fiction and the publishing industry’s infrastructure is a severe problem in the world of children’s books, as illuminated by research into the publishing environment of the past 15 years, and the books populating current bestseller charts. Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of economic and symbolic capital is important to understanding how diversity is highlighted in the contemporary literary field, but his polarization of the different form of capital as motivation for creating art is reductive. Storytelling is about combining voices and experiences, and publishers can, and should, combine economic and symbolic motivations in publishing diverse fiction for children. Publishing a book because it will be successful economically and because it is the right thing to do are not mutually exclusive; in publishing diverse children’s fiction, both motives can and should inspire us.

The article presents an attempt at cognitive linguistic analysis of the Russian cultural concept udacha (“luck”). Its primary goal is to describe derivational properties of the concept’s explication in the language through conceptual analysis of derived lexemes that belong to the family of words based on the verb udat’sya (“to succeed”). This will enable us to more precisely specify the concept’s meaning which was identified at the previous stage of the research. The material for the research was taken from basic Russian explanatory and word-formative dictionaries, and its methodological foundations include theoretical principles of language conceptualization of the world, general tenets of the anthropocentric approach to linguistic description, and ideas of reconstruction of culturally significant information through the data of a language. In her work, the author used the method of conceptual analysis developed by research teams and schools of thought in Volgograd, Voronezh, Nizhniy Novgorod, and Tambov, and the method of linguo-culturological interpretation of word-formative phenomena. The findings include verification and a more precise description of ten cognitive characteristics of the concept udacha (“luck”) revealed at the previous stage of the analysis, such as: “a favorable combination of circumstances,” “a desirable result, the right outcome of a case, success,” “a fortunate turn of events,” “happiness”, “one who can do anything, who succeeds in everything”, “creative accomplishment,” “a great achievement in some activities, success,ˮ “realization of a favorable opportunity,ˮ “something good,ˮ and “imparting or inheriting favorable, positive properties or attributes.ˮ Four new normative-evaluative and modal-evaluative cognitive characteristics have also been detected: “compliance with the necessary requirements, conditions,ˮ “something true, right,ˮ “appreciation of actions, deeds, events as accompanied by success, as leading to the desired result,ˮ and “hope for a favorable occasion without any effort, prior thinking or planningˮ. As a result, at the current stage of the research, the aggregate meaning extension of the concept udacha (“luck”) contains the total of fourteen cognitive characteristics. The author has come to the conclusion that the significant volume and complicated semantic organization of the family of words under analysis can be seen as objective language evidence of substantial cultural development of the concept udacha (“luck”) in the Russian language picture of the world.

Indonesia is one of many countries in the world so called resource-rich country. Natural resources abundance needs to be managed in the right way in order to avoid dutch diseases and resources curses. These two phenomena generally happened in the country, which has abundant natural resources. Learned from Norwegian experiences, Indonesian Government need to focus its policy to prevent rent seeking activities. The literature study presented in this paper is aimed to provide important insight for government entities in focusing their policies and programs to avoid resources curse. From the internal audit perspective, this study is expected to improve internal audit’s role in assurance and consulting.

Introduction. The article continues the series of publications on the linguistics of relations (hereinafter R–linguistics) and is devoted to an introduction to the logic of natural language in relation to the approach considered in the series. The problem of natural language logic still remains relevant, since this logic differs significantly from traditional mathematical logic. Moreover, with the appearance of artificial intelligence systems, the importance of this problem only increases. The article analyzes logical problems that prevent the application of classical logic methods to natural languages. This is possible because R-linguistics forms the semantics of a language in the form of world model structures in which language sentences are interpreted.Methodology and sources. The results obtained in the previous parts of the series are used as research tools. To develop the necessary mathematical representations in the field of logic and semantics, the formulated concept of the interpretation operator is used.Results and discussion. The problems that arise when studying the logic of natural language in the framework of R–linguistics are analyzed. These issues are discussed in three aspects: the logical aspect itself; the linguistic aspect; the aspect of correlation with reality. A very General approach to language semantics is considered and semantic axioms of the language are formulated. The problems of the language and its logic related to the most General view of semantics are shown.Conclusion. It is shown that the application of mathematical logic, regardless of its type, to the study of natural language logic faces significant problems. This is a consequence of the inconsistency of existing approaches with the world model. But it is the coherence with the world model that allows us to build a new logical approach. Matching with the model means a semantic approach to logic. Even the most General view of semantics allows to formulate important results about the properties of languages that lack meaning. The simplest examples of semantic interpretation of traditional logic demonstrate its semantic problems (primarily related to negation).
