Abstract

The theory of de-familiarization was first introduced in the field of literature and later due to its consistency and maturity, it was also studied in other fields and branches of art. The basis of interactive graphics is based on inviting the audience in the process of forming the work, and the de- familiarization technique can provide a platform for more creativity and interaction. The purpose of this study is to identify ways to create creativity through de-familiarization techniques and the role of the audience in interactive graphics. The question of what interactive graphics is and why they are formed is one of the issues that this research seeks to address. The main question of this article is how interactive graphics can create creative works to attract the audience through the familiarization technique? To achieve the desired goals, a qualitative research method with a descriptive-analytical nature was adopted and the studied works, which were collected through library resources, were analyzed by qualitative content analysis. The results showed that interactive graphic designers can create more creative and interactive works in the field of graphics through various methods of de- familiarization.

Abstract

Health concerns arising from urbanization requires serious commitment to revamp the Nigerian health sector. In that regards, this study sought to investigate the influence of urbanization and health expenditure on life expectancy and mortality rates in Nigeria from 1981 to 2020. The fully modified ordinary least squares (FMOLS) technique was used to ascertain the influence of urbanization and government health expenditure on life expectancy and mortality rates in Nigeria. From the result of FMOLS, it was observed that urbanization exerts a positive and significant effect on life expectancy; but exerts a negative and significant effect on mortality rates. Moreover, government health expenditure generated a negative and significant effect on life expectancy, but a positive and significant effect on adult mortality. As such, the 15% recommended by the World Health Organization should be given a top priority in order to alleviate the country out of the menace of health tourism that has bedevilled the country over the years.

Abstract

The development of transportation, especially four-wheeled vehicles, is very fast, which can cause finance companies to move dynamically. The development of finance companies today leads to intense competition. The increasing need for cars and other necessities of life drives people to buy cars in cash or credit financing (Leasing). One of the car loan financing companies in Indonesia is PT. Maybank Indonesia Finance. Before purchasing the product they want, some consumers will assess and see where this product company comes from. In addition to COO, price is also one of the determining elements for consumers to purchase a product or service they want. When the image of the country of origin is good, and the price set is cheap, it will make consumers perceive the idea of the product and will later influence purchasing decisions. Therefore, this study wanted to examine the role of brand image in the mediating country of origin image and price on purchasing decisions. This research was conducted by non-probability sampling method with purposive sampling type. Researchers distributed questionnaires to 100 Maybank Finance consumer respondents in Indonesia who had purchased Maybank Finance car loans in 2018-2020. The analysis results conclude that the image of the country of origin has no positive and significant effect on buying decisions. Price has a positive and significant effect on purchasing decisions. The idea of the country of origin has a positive and significant effect on brand image. Price has a positive and significant effect on brand image. Brand image has a positive and significant effect on purchasing decisions. Brand image mediates the idea of the country of origin on purchasing decisions. Brand image negotiates price on buying decisions.

Abstract

This research aims to examine the process of cultural development analyzed from the perspective of the evolutionary, diffusion, and structural-functional paradigm. The importance of this analysis in the study of various anthropological paradigms is that no matter how simple society, it is absolutely necessary to experience gradual and revolutionary changes in development and culture. These changes lead to the disruption of socio-cultural values in people's lives. The approach used in this study is a qualitative approach with the biographical method. In collecting, processing and analyzing data, the authors searched for various literatures which were followed up with content analysis by comparing, and selecting various contents of literature books to formulate conclusions. The results of the study show that in the life of a very simple and complex society, socio-cultural changes are found. The results of the analysis based on the paradigm of evolution, diffusion and functional structure in the midst of an increasingly complex society found the disruption of socio-cultural values due to the dynamics of society, the rapid development of science and technology.

Abstract

This study aims to develop a communication model based on local wisdom originating from Sundanese culture, namely Silih Simbeuh, which is carried out by bureaucrats to socialize their policies to the public. The method used is qualitative, with a survey approach – descriptive. Data were collected through interviews, observation, and documentation studies. 29 research informants were determined purposively. Data analysis was carried out through the stages of reduction, display, analysis, and concluding. The objects of research are three governors who actively use social media, namely Anis Baswedan (DKI Jakarta), Ridwan Kamil (West Java), and Ganjar Pranowo (Central Java). The results show that the use of social media can be an effective and efficient communication tool in disseminating policies, through increasing public participation. This is shown in the form of following social media accounts, comments, reposts, and other interactions. The results of other studies show that the communication model using social media based on the Silih Simbeuh concept has proven to be effective in minimizing potential conflicts between policymakers and citizens and between citizens. The research location is narrow, the respondents are limited, and the methods used do not allow for generalizations. Further research is needed with more comprehensive coverage of respondents and methods Silih Simbeuh's local wisdom values can minimize conflicts in the communication process between policymakers and the community

Abstract

Scientific production is one of the indicators of relevance to measure the efficiency in the institutional environment, which implies a development conditioned in all the sectors from the society to world level. In the same way, the technologies of the information (TI) represent a decisive element for their administration which has experienced a constant growth during the last decades similar to the consolidation of the university studies in the different areas of the knowledge and study modalities. The following article makes a reflection on the base of the concepts and tendencies of the scientific investigation and its linking with the technologies of the information. The production of the investigation was characterized in the countries of Ecuador, Cuba and Colombia, as well as the existent relationship among the investment in technologies of the information and the institutional productivity, which was performed with the analysis of bibliometric indicatives. As a result, it was set down the bases for the theoretical-practical deeping of the investigation. Also, it was verified that the investment in IT focused in articles and scientific magazines, contribute to a better knowledge in academic institutions and that the three countries develop policies to motivate this activity, being Colombia the one with more production in the last ten years, as well as the one that has had bigger expense in IT as percentage of the GDP, which is carried out mainly by the government; although the administration of the knowledge has a transcendental impact for the economic and social development of any country.

Abstract

In any scientific endeavour, or considered as such, methodology and epistemology are paramount, not to mention ontology: what is the nature of the reality that we are studying? What is the nature of the knowledge that is being produced and its rationality? What are the methods applied to the field of study? However, when it to comes to “Islam”, the “Middle East”, or the “Orient”, the starting points are assumptions and truisms, particularly in “scientific” fields such as Political Science or International Relations, especially when the subject is the relation between politics and religion. In the last few decades, Islam has become a central point of reference for a wide range of political activities, arguments and opposition movements. The term “political Islam”, or “Islamism”, has been adopted by many scholars in order to identify this seemingly unprecedented irruption of Islamic religion into the secular domain of politics and thus to distinguish these practices from the forms of personal piety, belief, and ritual conventionally subsumed in Western scholarship under the unmarked category “Islam”. There have been tremendous, innumerable websites, voluminous publications and many projects on “Islamism(s)” and “Post-Islamism(s)”, the idea that political Islam had failed. However, when reality did not confirm that prediction, a new term was coined: “neo-Islamism”. This paper aims to explore the thesis that, as in other fields, these labels are nothing more than an attempt by Area Studies within Western academia to mould reality according to preconceived ideas and according to policy-oriented circles and funded by governmental organizations, and that, when dealing with “Islam” and “politics”, we are urgently in need of a different epistemology.
