HOAX MENJADI GANGGUAN KESEJAHTERAAN MASYARAKAT: PENTINGNYA IMPLEMENTASI TABAYYUN PADA MASA SEKARANG

This paper aims to discuss rights of non-Muslim citizens in Indonesia at government refers to the conception of the state of Dien wa Ni'mah. The main argument in this paper that the concept of Dien wa Ni'mah prioritize law as an important pillar can accommodate pluralism and contextual with the system of the Unitary State of the Republic Indonesia based on Pancasila. The research method used was a historical study, based on a comprehensive literature review from various sources in books and journals about the concept of Dien wa Ni'mah. The results of this study explain that Dien wa Ni'mah is a concept of the manifestation of Islam as a religious teaching that is Rahmatan Li al-Alamin and build human life through law as the main universal pillar, not only as the theological framework and spiritual principles of mankind, also in the life of society, nation and religion. So this concept accommodates the rights of non-Muslims in government by considering pluralism and democracy. Thus making the concept of Dien wa Ni'mah as the nation's perspective to the Civil Society will have an impact on the participation of all parties.

Tales of Love and Pandemic

The main argument of the chapter is the analysis of the reading and writing behaviour on Wattpad during the phases of lockdown in Italy for the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic represents the first great event of ‘data society' reactions making several authors reflect on various aspects and thoughts about social impact of tech ecosystems. Nowadays, it becomes essential to understand the role that digital technologies and media have had to soothe feelings related to social isolation and physical distancing measures. Thus, as widely acknowledged, besides providing data for social research in many aspects of life, the digital context also suggests above all innovated methods enforced by the physical distancing. This research has explored about 600 stories edited on Wattpad that have been selected through the query “Covid.” The aim of the analysis is to map collective imaginary of users about the COVID-19 pandemic within a digital medium for fanfiction, combining three fundamental approaches of digital methods.

Exploring mechanisms of whiteness: how counterterrorism practitioners disrupt anti-racist expertise

This article situates the subject of the academic–practitioner (AP) exchange within an International Relations-orientated critique of the imperial dynamics of counterterrorism practices and racial subjugation. It uses an analytical framework that upholds the significance of racial hierarchy to knowledge production. A key contribution of this article is to situate the AP nexus within the circumstances of liberal democratic counterterrorism regimes, to demonstrate how race becomes meaningful to the knowledge that is produced about Islamophobia. The main argument of this article is that in present policy debates concerning the existence of systemic racism, one of the mechanisms enabling counterterrorism practitioners to regulate the AP exchange is that of institutionalized whiteness. Exploring two scenarios of AP exchanges in the United Kingdom and Canada, where counterterrorism practitioners were challenged to reconcile with academic explanations of Islamophobia as a systemic issue, this article uses colour-line inspired critiques of white logic to identify instances where anti-racist knowledge was subjugated in the name of imperialism. The article finds that in each scenario discussed, practitioners demonstrate trajectories of white logic by contesting the suitability of anti-racist knowledge put forward by academics, on the basis of racial hierarchy and self-aggrandizement. It concludes by discussing how a lack of practitioner–academic consensus continues to affect the dissemination of knowledge concerning systemic racism, thus prompting considerations of what this means for an anti-racist future.

‘Political-Timing-Specific’ Performance Art in the Realm of the Museum

Can reenactments be a way to create counter-narratives in and for the museum? Through the analysis of political performance (or what the artist Tania Bruguera calls ‘political-timing-specific’ artworks), this essay discusses the potential of reenactment as both a practice of materializing memories and narratives of oppression and of rethinking museum policies in terms of preservation and display. Its main argument is that, while the archive can be regarded as a form of materializing the memory of these works, reenactment is more than a way of recovering the past; it is also a device for reconstructing memories of activism and oppression. This essay further suggests that reenactments of political-timing-specific works demand a change in accessioning, conservation, and presentation practices, which might be inclined to erase decentralized art-historical and material narratives.

7. The Court of Justice of the European Union:

The Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) is one of the key institutions in the European political system, and amongst the less well known. Described as one of the most powerful international courts, and perceived as one of the reasons the UK left the European Union (EU) (their main argument being that they did not want to be held to account by an unelected and non-British court), the Court continues to be shrouded in mystery. The aim of this chapter is to facilitate an understanding of the structure, history, and workings of this Court, as a key actor in the EU’s institutional system. As such, it is not only a judicial actor but a ‘political’ actor too. Its constitutional role, as well as its role during the economic and financial crisis, illustrates these multiple facets.

In the Footsteps of the Absent Father: The Protagonist as a Writing Subject in the Work of Ronit Matalon

The article addresses the literary development of the young female protagonist in Ronit Matalon’s early writing, and the character’s relationship with her absent father. Despite the prevalence of this theme, little research has been dedicated to the father-daughter relationship in Matalon’s work and its influence on the daughter’s decision to become a writer. The article examines this theme in Matalon’s young adult novel, A Story that Begins with a Snake’s Funeral (1989). My main argument here is that the father-daughter relationship in Matalon’s work is central to the construction of the daughter’s ’decision to write‘, and points to the issue of inter-generational accountability, in which the daughter is entitled to an inheritance from her father despite her critical view of him. As I will show in my reading of the novel, the fictional representation of this relationship bears an autobiographical imprint, particularly in light of Matalon’s choice to quote her father, Felix Matalon, and to lend his voice to the father figure in her writing. As part of the exploration of this theme, which consists of both fictional and autobiographical aspects, I suggest that the heroine’s efforts to place her absent father in the context of her life and to cope with his absence through her writing point to Matalon’s own efforts to deal with her father’s legacy by writing about him and giving him a place in the Israeli literary canon, while maintaining a critical attitude towards him.

Brennan: Response to Landemore

Jason Brennan responds to Landemore’s main argument in Debating Democracy. He argues that the proof the Hong–Page Theorem is largely question-begging, and that the concept of “diversity” in the proof does not correspond to the concept as used by democratic theorists. He argues that Landemore must accept that voter knowledge matters, but doing so prevents her from being able to say democracy always outperforms democracy. He also argues that democracy performs as well as it does because it tends to come together with liberalism. He finally offers additional criticisms of open democracy.

Why Time Discounting Should Be Exponential: A Reply to Callender

According to Craig Callender (2020), the “received view” across the social sciences is that, when it comes to time and preference, only exponential time discounting is rational. Callender argues that this view is false, even pernicious. Here I endorse what I take to be Callender’s main argument, but only insofar as the received view is understood in a particular way. I go on to propose a different way of understanding the received view that makes it true. In short: When time discounting is suitably conceived, the exponential form of the discounting function is indeed uniquely rational.

What We Can Learn From Studying The Past: The Wonderful Usefulness of History in Educational Research

Why should educational researchers study the history of education? This article suggests that this research is of immediate relevance to current issues of education and may therefore serve a wide variety of purposes. The main argument is that history of education offers four vital contributions: a unique methodological expertise that in turn enables historians of education to provide educational research with vital explanations, comparisons, and the ability to analyse the use and abuse of history in contemporary educational policy and debate. In short, history of education is vital to educational research, not despite its historical orientation, but because of it. Consequently, this paper poses a challenge, both for the field of educational research to promote educational historical research, and for historians of education to explore the untapped potential of this sub-discipline.

The Mystery of Physics 101

Hertz and his scientific contemporaries correctly viewed conceptual disharmony as the inevitable product of the evolutionary manner in which an initial descriptive practice gradually enlarges its applicational outreach, pragmatically guided by the discovery of fresh opportunities for calculating results in a useful manner. As a side effect of this increasing accumulation of technique, component words will become naturally pulled into subtly different forms of localized referential attachment. These discordant alignments create difficulties when a straightforward exposition of “fundamental principle” is wanted, as arises within an elementary class in classical mechanics (this is the “mystery” of the chapter’s title). Hertz, in particular, noticed that the word “force” behaves in a diverging manner, according to the comparative scale size of the object under consideration. This structural insight is crucial to unraveling the resulting conceptual tensions, but the axiomatic corrective that Hertz proposed leads to very unfortunate results, because such a scheme must artificially choose which of these usages of “force” should be favored as “primary.” Nonetheless, Hertz’s faulty presumption that axiomatics represents the proper vehicle for rectifying conceptual tangles of this character has turned into a widely accepted methodological dogma. It constitutes the foundational basis of the theory T thinking of which this book complains. Again the finer details outlined in this chapter are not essential for following the main argument of this work, but they nicely illuminate its motivational background.
