Abstract

This study presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of research investigating the linkages between Islamic ethics and economic practices from 2015 to 2024, utilizing data from the Scopus database. The analysis examined 241 documents to identify publication patterns, influential authors, geographic distribution, and thematic evolution in the field. The results revealed a steady increase in the study results, with peak publications occurring in 2022-2023 (30 documents annually). Malaysia and Indonesia emerged as leading research contributors, collectively accounting for 35% of publications. Journal articles dominated the type of publication (73.9%), followed by book contributions (16.6%). Network analysis identifies different research groups centered around Islamic banking, sustainable finance, and ethical business practices. The study found that while traditional Islamic principles remain fundamental, research has evolved to address contemporary challenges such as digital transformation, sustainability, and post-pandemic economic recovery. Analysis of citations reveals that the practical application of Islamic ethics in the modern financial system has received significant attention, with authors such as Alserhan, B.A. (50 quotes) and Ali, A.J. (42 quotes) emerging as influential contributors. These findings demonstrate a growing academic interest in integrating Islamic ethical principles with contemporary economic practices while highlighting research gaps in areas such as financial technology and standard ethical frameworks. This analysis contributes to understanding the current state of Islamic economic ethics research and suggests directions for future investigations

Abstract

Startup companies are looking at Business Process Outsourcing to help provide employees quickly and with quality. If the company holds it themselves, there will be many costs involved in the selection process. Companies in this business themselves are ultimately required to be able to maintain work engagement even though they have a high workload. This research aims to look at the role of transactional leadership in the work engagement of business process outsourcing employees with workload as a moderator. This research is quantitative research with a survey method. This research involved one hundred twenty employees at a business process company. Data were analyzed using PLS SEM 4.0. The research results show that, in general, workload is proven to moderate the relationship between transactional leadership and work engagement. Individuals who perceive their workload as low will have high work engagement if their transactional leadership is high. Meanwhile, individuals who perceive their workload as high have no difference in their perception of high or low transactional leadership and high or low work engagement. The study emphasizes balancing workload and leadership style in BPO settings. Transactional leadership enhances engagement under manageable workloads, but its effect weakens in high-pressure environments, indicating the need for alternative strategies.

Abstract

This qualitative study uses a hermeneutic approach that explores the form and meaning of intellectual capital, particularly human capital, through the lens of Javanese philosophy Jnana Badra (light of knowledge). As the first study to apply this unique cultural perspective, this research interprets Jnana Badra as the foundation for human direction and achievement. Findings indicate that knowledge, derived from formal education and the universe, functions as an essential light guiding human life, illuminating the path to progress, and preventing suffering. The absence of this knowledge has been shown to cause stagnation and hardship. Theoretically, this study contributes to intellectual capital theory by offering a culturally embedded understanding of human capital, encouraging knowledge that transcends narrow perspectives and promoting real impact on individuals, society, and national development. This research emphasises the importance of integrating philosophical wisdom with contemporary intellectual capital discourse.

Abstract

Using internet memes as a marketing tool is one strategy that every company can apply to market their products and reach their consumers in the current digital era. The aim of this research is to analyze the construction of meme messages and explain the function of using these memes in marketing on Netflixid and Vidiodotcom’s Instagram accounts. This research uses the concepts of content marketing and internet memes as a reference for analysis. The method used in this research is qualitative content analysis. A total of 25 uploads from each @netflixid and @vidiodotcom were analyzed using the meme dimension analysis model, including content, form, and stance. Based on the content analysis of dimensions in memes, the form dimension shows the most differences. Meme creators at each company take snippets of films, dramas, and series that are their own products. In terms of shape dimensions, there has been a change from what was originally a video format to a photo. The narrative built on memes is also different from the narrative in the original source. Apart from that, there are differences in the function of each meme in the two companies. On Netflixid Instagram account, memes are used to build relationships using the soft selling method. Meanwhile, Vidiodotcom’s Instagram account shows how memes are designed with the aim of building consumer relationships using soft selling and hard selling method.

Abstract

This research examines factors influencing foreigners' investment decisions in Bali’s property market, focusing on economic conditions, foreign investment regulations, behavioral trends, and strategic location. A quantitative approach was applied, collecting data from 93 foreign property owners in Southern Bali (Badung Regency, Denpasar City, and Gianyar Regency) through structured questionnaires using a four-point Likert scale. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with Partial Least Squares (PLS) was utilized for data analysis, revealing that economic factors, behavioral trends, and property location significantly influence investment decisions, with property location being the strongest determinant. Conversely, foreign investment regulations had a positive but non-significant effect, suggesting that complex regulations do not strongly deter investors. These findings highlight the paradox of foreign investment in areas with restrictive ownership laws, emphasizing the necessity for enhanced investment policies, infrastructure development, and strategic urban planning. This research contributes to the discourse on international property investment, offering insights for policymakers, real estate developers, and financial advisors in creating a more conducive investment climate while balancing regulatory frameworks.

Abstract

Sing beling sing nganten, literally meaning “not pregnant, not married,” is a social phenomenon widely found in Balinese society, particularly in urban areas. This practice implicitly reflects symbolic power rooted in social habitus and gendered expectations related to fertility, marriage, and women's roles. This study aims to examine how Pierre Bourdieu’s concepts of habitus and symbolic power operate in the normalization of this practice. Employing a qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews and participatory observation involving 15 informants, including women, men, traditional leaders, and scholars. The data were analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) to explore participants’ lived experiences, and Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to uncover the linguistic mechanisms that reproduce symbolic domination. The findings reveal that sing beling sing nganten functions as a social practice that disciplines women’s bodies through everyday language, social expectations, and religious narratives. Symbolic power legitimizes fertility as a prerequisite for marriage and reinforces patriarchal values through discourses perceived as “natural.” This study contributes to the understanding of gender norm reproduction in modern contexts and suggests the need for future research to explore possibilities for social transformation.

Abstract

The construction of modest flats (Rusunawa) in Sadangserang, Bandung City, is planned to use land currently used by the Sadangserang market and station. The temporary relocation of the market and station has the potential to trigger social conflict among traders, public transportation drivers, and the local community. This research is proposed to analyze the potential for social conflict from the perspective of sustainable development planning. The study was conducted using qualitative methods through in-depth interviews with key informants. The research results indicated that the potential for conflict arises from uncertainty about compensation and economic impacts for traders and terminal workers, as well as the loss of cultural identity and access to transportation for the community. Applying sustainable planning principles reduced the potential for conflict through fair compensation schemes, adaptation assistance, participation of affected groups, guaranteed rights to return to their original location, and cross-sectoral communication and coordination. This Research enriches the literature on urban informal infrastructure relocation studies with a perspective of sustainable planning. The research results are in the form of a reference for the government in formulating fair and sustainable relocation policies.

Abstract

The whistleblowing system is a mechanism for reporting suspected acts of fraud that have occurred, are ongoing, or are anticipated to occur, involving employees and other parties associated with suspected acts of fraud within the organization where they work. In this context, culture plays a significant role in influencing an individual's intention to act as a whistleblower. This study aims to identify the cultural factors that predominantly influence whistleblowing intentions. The research was conducted in government institutions in Bali, considering that the cultural values of Tat Twam Asi and Koh Ngomong are integral to Balinese culture. The selected institutions were the Bali Provincial Office of the Ministry of Religious Affairs and the Faculty of Economics and Business at Udayana University, as both institutions have received WBK (Corruption-Free Zone) and WBBM (Clean and Service-Oriented Bureaucratic Zone) awards. This study employs an interpretive paradigm to understand the dominant cultural influences on whistleblowing intentions. It is qualitative research that applies phenomenology as its methodology and research method. Data were collected from sources such as in-depth interviews, documentation, and observations of employee activities within the institutions. The data were then contextually explained to facilitate interpretation. The findings reveal that societal culture significantly influences whistleblowing intentions. In general, the Tat Twam Asi culture is more supportive of reporting violations compared to the Koh Ngomong culture. People in Bali tend to report violations to enhance reputation and protect the organization rather than remain silent and reluctant to disclose misconduct.

Abstract

The boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) movement targeting Israeli‑affiliated firms has gained considerable global attention, yet its impact on Indonesian capital markets remains underexplored. This study therefore investigates whether the announcement of trading suspension in response to BDS actions is associated with significant changes in mean abnormal returns and trading volume activity for affected stocks. Employing an event‑study framework, we calculate abnormal returns using the market model and measure trading volume activity as the ratio of daily volume to its historical average over a 21‑day window (ten days before through ten days after the event date). Our sample comprises Israeli‑linked firms listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange whose trading was halted due to BDS‑related developments. Rigorous statistical tests reveal that mean abnormal returns are significantly different both in the pre‑event and post‑event periods, indicating that investors adjust their valuation prior to as well as following the suspension. Likewise, a paired‑samples t‑test of trading volume activity demonstrates a statistically significant increase in turnover immediately before and after the event, suggesting heightened trading interest surrounding the BDS announcement. These findings underscore that non‑fundamental political actions can elicit measurable market reactions in Indonesia, with implications for portfolio managers, regulators, and policymakers seeking to understand how socio‑political events influence market dynamics.

Abstract

This study addresses the lack of integrated analysis on how environmental factors and teaching methods jointly influence the effectiveness of vocational training in enhancing human resource competencies, particularly in the context of Kupang City. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research combined quantitative surveys of 150 participants with qualitative interviews and field observations at two training institutions to explore how physical, psychological, and social learning environments interact with instructional strategies. Data analysis through correlation and multiple regression revealed that both environmental factors and teaching methods significantly contributed to competency improvement, explaining 65% of the observed variance. Qualitative findings reinforced these results, highlighting how participatory teaching, use of digital tools, and a supportive learning atmosphere enhanced engagement, knowledge absorption, and even post-training income levels. The study concludes that both environmental quality and teaching methodology are not peripheral but central to the success of training programs. It recommends routine environmental audits, adoption of experiential and blended learning models, and facilitator upskilling through certification programs to sustain and scale the impact of training initiatives. These findings offer practical implications for institutions and policymakers in designing more effective and responsive training systems in resource-limited settings.
