A Study of Bagobo Tagabawa Folk Speech Using Murdock’s and Eugenio’s Classification

Around 60, 000 in number, the Bagobo people constitute one of the indigenous peoples in Davao, Philippines. This study analyzes the Bagobo Tagabawa folk speech, specifically their proverbs and riddles. Also, this study aims to help in preserving the Bagobo Tagabawa folk speech and fostering a better understanding and appreciation of their life, literature, and people. The researcher analyzed the 90 proverbs and the 97 riddles in form and style using the classification of the riddles of George P. Murdock and the category of proverbs used by Damiana Eugenio. The concept of cultural anthropology by Franz Boas was employed in the study to determine the cultural contents of each literary piece of the said indigenous group. Findings reveal that the Bagobo people have rich and varied folk literature, constituting an important part of Philippine national literature that could vanish amid modernization. This study has contributed to the preservation of the cultural materials of the Bagobo Tagabawa. Thus, it is hoped that it will make it easier for non-Bagobo Filipinos and the rest of the world to know and appreciate Bagobo folk speech. Furthermore, the researcher recommends that this study be disseminated among folklore enthusiasts to enrich the Bagobo Tagabawa folk speech analysis. This research can help the National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP) promote, protect, and recognize the culture of the indigenous peoples, particularly in the territory of Mindanao.

Prologue to truth: Argentina’s National Commission on the Disappeared and the authority of international law

Argentina’s 1980s transition to democracy is globally admired for pioneering a state-led process addressing the 1976–1983 dictatorship’s state-violence. The role of international law in the transition is well documented, especially through human rights and crimes against humanity. Yet, the extent to which Argentina’s transition was intertwined with international law and subject to its jurisdictional force deserves greater attention. This article analyses how the Argentinian truth commission (TC) accounts for the dictatorship’s state-violence, and how international law is implicated in the making of this account. It argues that the TC’s account draws on the authority of international law to establish the unlawfulness of the dictatorship’s state-violence. In turn, the TC subjects the meaning and interpretation of the dictatorship’s state-violence to a Eurocentric/Anglo-American lawfulness embedded in, and mobilized by, international law in the late-Cold War. To examine this, the article re-reads the Prologue to the TC’s Report as a literary text that does international legal work, harnessing the authority of international law in a way that has enabled the TC to deploy an authoritative, internationally acceptable, account of the unlawfulness of the dictatorship’s state-violence. This reading is based on original archival research, on scholarship in the fields of ‘law and literature’ and the history and theory of international law.

Certain aspects of current state of domestic financial market

Introduction. The financial market, as a combination of exchange and redistribution relations associated with the processes of purchase and sale of financial resources is a complex system that is an indicator of the development of the economy as a whole. In the context of global challenges, the development trends of the financial market and its components are expanding. The securities market today occupies an increasing segment of the financial market, despite the fact that it is under development. Recently, it is characterized by a high level of dynamism. And already now it has positive results for the participants. Purpose. A study of the securities market, the structure of its financial instruments and the circle of participants. Results. Modern financial processes are characterized by the emergence of new financial instruments and technologies, which expands and forms an alternative to the placement and attraction of financial resources outside of banking institutions and increases the circle of participants. An example is the emergence of Internet trading. Internet trading is a system of securities work that gives the investor access to exchange information, and also makes it possible to conclude transactions on the purchase and sale of securities on the exchange in real time using a special certified program installed on a personal computer. The expansion of the range of financial instruments that contribute to the increase of the circle of participants in the financial process in the stock market occurred at the expense of Bonds of Internal Government Loans of Ukraine, whose income rates are higher then bank. They became the first hryvnia instruments included in the global indices of debt securities MVIS (MV Index Solutions. Also in October this year, the National Commission on Securities and Stock Market decided to allow the circulation of foreign securities in Ukraine. As a result, today Ukrainian investors can use the opportunity to invest in 85 securities of foreign issuers. All this makes it possible to obtain additional financial resources for both individual (households) and collective entities (communities). Conclusion. Domestic government bonds are effective financial instruments for the majority of participants in the investment process in the stock market are the first hryvnia instruments to be included in the the global MVIS debt securities indices. There is also a tendency to expand the circle of participants and the structure of financial instruments of the Ukrainian stock market due to the possibility of purchasing state securities by territorial communities, as well as admission of foreign securities by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.

Urgensi Pengesahan RUU PKS sebagai Upaya Perlindungan Hukum Bagi Korban Revenge Porn

Based on data obtained from the Annual Records of the National Commission on Women, the percentage of violence against women has increased by 792% in the past 12 years. In addition, cases of Online Gender Based Violence (OGBV) have increased 300% and the most cases are revenge porn cases. This proves that women are one of the most vulnerable subjects to become victims of violence, and violence against women is not only carried out in the real world but also in cyberspace. One of the most common OGBV cases is revenge porn, where a perpetrator threatens to spread pornographic content belonging to the victim online without the victim’s consent with the potential to damage the victim’s reputation. The absence of regulations governing revenge porn makes it difficult for victims to get legal protection. The existence of the Draft Law on the Elimination of Sexual Violence (RUU PKS) which specifically regulates the types of sexual violence has given rise to hope for victims in seeking justice. The purpose of this study is to examine the urgency of the ratification of the RUU PKS regardless of the pros and cons circulating in society in providing legal protection for the victims. This study uses a normative legal research method that emphasized data obtained indirectly, such as legal materials. The results of this study indicate that the existence of laws and regulations such as the Electronic Transaction and Information Act, the Pornography Law, as well as provisions in the Criminal Code are considered insufficient to provide legal protection for the victims. Therefore, it is necessary to ratify the RUU PKS as a legal umbrella to provide protection for the victims.

Cultural Preservation of Panay Bukidnon-Halawodnons Amidst Emergent Society

Ethnic groups are known as minorities in any society. However, the richness of their culture can never be undermined, rather, it serves as defining stuff of history that is worthy of being upheld and preserved. This ethnographic study was specifically designed to investigate how the Panay Bukidnon-Halawodnons in barangay Agcalaga, Calinog, Iloilo, Philippines upheld their cultural society amidst the influence of the mainstream institutions in their community during the 1st quarter of 2019. The informants were chosen through purposive sampling on the basis of the inclusion criteria set before them. Permission from the National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP) and the cultural community was secured prior to the conduct of fieldwork in the said area. The researchers performed data triangulation and ground truths for the validity of data and observed data saturation for the reliability of the gathered data. NVivo 12 Plus was used for conceptual analysis while the researchers themselves did the analytic analysis. Barangay Agcalaga is generally on its midway progress. Being a cultural community, the Panay Bukidnon-Halawodnons in this place maintain their cultures such as Council of Elders, "binanog" dance, rituals in farming, house construction, circumcision, dagaan, luy-a luy-a, and batak-dungan; bayanihan; babaylan; and love of nature while their lost cultures include binukot; serenade (harana); traditional IP house; burial rites (embalming); dowry system; primitive costumes (bahag and patadyong). The Philippine government is called to ratify the Indigenous and Tribal Peoples Convention No. 169 or Convention 169 to fortify the cultures of the Indigenous Peoples not only in Calinog, Iloilo but also in the entire country.
