Abstract

This article examines Indonesia’s autogate policy not only as a digital service innovation, but as a component of immigration system resilience. Drawing on policy implementation theory by Edwards III, Sabatier & Mazmanian, e-government literature on the design reality gap, system resilience thinking, and the information security CIA triad, the study analyses how autogate is designed, regulated, and operated at major international airports. Using a qualitative descriptive approach based on documentary and literature review, it maps legal foundations, organizational arrangements, and technical narratives surrounding automated border control. The findings show that autogate has improved processing times, standardized procedures, and strengthened traceability through digital logs, thereby supporting efficiency, accountability, and internal control. However, recurrent system downtime, biometric errors, incomplete system integration, and heavy dependence on infrastructure reveal significant vulnerabilities in confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data. Fragmented governance across immigration, airport operators, cybersecurity, and communications authorities reinforces a design–reality gap, limiting coordination, local ownership, and adaptive capacity. The article concludes that autogate currently functions as a double-edged innovation, symbolizing digital modernization while only partially reinforcing immigration system resilience. It recommends clearer mandates, stronger cross-sector coordination, improved data governance, and investment in human resources and risk-based oversight to align automated border control with a more robust, rights-sensitive model of digital immigration governance.

Abstract

This study investigates the labour market integration of migrant workers in Ethiopia’s urban economic zones, with a focus on how gender shapes employment outcomes, occupational mobility, and access to social protection. Drawing on neoclassical and structural migration theories, gendered migration frameworks, and labour market segmentation literature, the study examines the intersections of migration status, gender, and urban economic structures. Using evidence from industrial parks, special economic zones, and informal urban markets, the research highlights patterns of formal and informal employment, wage disparities, skill utilization, and occupational segregation. It further explores institutional, social, and structural barriers, including legal restrictions, discrimination, care responsibilities, housing precarity, and vulnerability to exploitation, demonstrating how these disproportionately affect women and other marginalized groups. The study concludes by proposing gender-responsive policies, inclusive urban planning, and skills recognition frameworks to enhance equitable labour integration.

Abstract

This study formulates an empirically grounded curriculum development management model for international-standard madrasas in Indonesia, responding to globalization and uneven curriculum innovation. Prior studies often theorize internationalization or describe technical integration; this article clarifies how governance routines coordinate mapping, capacity, and evaluation. A qualitative grounded theory design examined two cases MBI Amanatul Ummah (Mojokerto) and the Mu’allimaat International Class Program (Yogyakarta) using purposive informants (principals, vice principals, and international-class teachers), semi-structured interviews, observations, and document analysis; data were analyzed with the Miles–Huberman–Saldaña interactive model. The model comprises three interlocking domains: (1) integrated curriculum design that maps national and Ministry of Religious Affairs competencies to Cambridge objectives and delivers them through a blended/LMS-supported “glocal” approach; (2) human-resource and language capacity building via selective recruitment, continuous English–Arabic upskilling, and TOEFL/TOAFL readiness; and (3) results-based quality assurance through exam analytics, MGMP-style professional review, transparent parent reporting, and sister-school collaboration. Together, these routines convert multiple standards into a coherent instructional logic and sustain continuous improvement through a measurable feedback loop. International-standard madrasas can reach global benchmarks without losing Islamic-local identity by mapping standards, building people, and institutionalizing data-driven review. This transferable framework guides policymakers seeking scalable madrasa reform across Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to identify issues related to the understanding and implementation of eco-theological teachings based on Genesis 1:26–28 and Psalm 24:1 in the lives of the faithful at Santa Maria Cathedral Church, Palembang, and to position eco-theology as a theological foundation for ecological responsibility. The research employs a qualitative method through interviews with key informants and a literature review of journals and articles related to Catholic eco-theology. The main findings indicate that the congregation understands eco-theology as a faith-based calling manifested in waste management, greening initiatives, and participation in church ecological programs. This study contributes to the development of theology, religious environmental studies, and pastoral practices that promote ecological awareness. The novelty of this research lies in the integration of local empirical data with Catholic eco-theological literature, emphasizing that ecological care is a spiritual practice shaping the behavior of the faithful.

Abstract

This study examines how digital media shapes urban Nigerian youth's engagement with popular culture, identity construction, and social activism. With the rapid expansion of social media, young people are increasingly using these platforms to perform their identities and engage in civic matters. The research, using qualitative methods including semi-structured interviews and thematic content analysis, found that 78% of participants actively participate in online activism, while 85% reported that social media significantly shapes their self-concept and cultural identity. Key themes identified were identity performance, peer influence, and digital civic participation. The findings highlight the role of social media not only in cultural expression but also in mobilizing youth around social issues. This research emphasizes the need for digital literacy, cultural understanding, and strong policy support to maximize the positive potential of online engagement in shaping youth identity and activism. The novelty of the study lies in its focus on the intersection of digital culture and social activism among urban Nigerian youth, offering insights into how digital spaces transform personal and collective identities.

Abstract

Religious diversity is a defining characteristic of Nigeria’s social structure and has significant implications for the education system. Schools often serve as primary spaces where students from different religious backgrounds interact, making the management of religious diversity critical for promoting tolerance and social harmony. This study examines how Nigerian schools manage religious diversity and the implications for educational policy and social cohesion. Using a qualitative research design, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with teachers, school administrators, and education policy stakeholders, complemented by document analysis of national education policies and curriculum frameworks. The findings indicate that inclusive curricula, interfaith dialogue initiatives, and teacher training in religious ethics contribute significantly to fostering tolerance and peaceful coexistence among students. However, challenges such as community resistance, inadequate policy enforcement, and limited professional training continue to hinder effective management of religious diversity in schools. The study highlights the importance of strengthening policy frameworks, improving teacher preparedness, and integrating pluralistic perspectives into educational curricula. Ultimately, effective management of religious diversity within schools can enhance social cohesion, promote national integration, and contribute to long-term socio-economic development in Nigeria.

Abstract

The rapid growth of the digital gig economy has given rise to a new and controversial profession: Binary Option platform affiliates, who frequently employ the "flexing" marketing strategy (excessive displays of wealth) to attract customers. This phenomenon has become a serious problem in Human Resource Management (HRM) due to the use of psychological manipulation and dishonest information in the recruitment process for new users or partners. This activity often traps customers in a speculative and illegal system, substantially resembling online gambling. This study aims to analyze the morality of flexing-based recruitment strategies through the lens of HRM ethics and interfaith perspectives, particularly Islam and Christianity, to examine the social and spiritual impacts of this digital economic malpractice. This study uses qualitative methods with a descriptive and comparative approach between positive law and religious norms in Indonesia and Singapore. The analysis examines affiliate marketing practices and religious texts relevant to the ethics of earning a living and honesty. Flexing is an unethical recruitment strategy because it violates the principles of transparency and professional integrity, where commissions are derived from the losses of others (loss-sharing). This practice is identified as a form of Riya (showing off) and support for Maysir (gambling) and Gharar (uncertainty/fraud), which are strictly prohibited in Islamic economic law because they harm others for personal gain. From a Christian perspective, this strategy contradicts the principle of honesty towards others and the warning about the "Love of Money" as the root of evil, and ignores the value of humility and moral responsibility in managing God's blessings. The difference in policy in Indonesia, which prohibits Binary Options as gambling, compared to Singapore, which strictly regulates it, shows how religious morality values ​​influence public policy. The study concludes that flexing in the digital gig economy is not just a social trend, but a crisis of recruitment morality. The integration of Islamic and Christian values ​​can provide a strong ethical foundation to strengthen digital HR regulations and protect society from fraud-based economic exploitation.

Abstract

The legal protection of victims of crime requires serious attention, as the victims frequently refuse to respect their human rights. In the criminal justice system in Idonesia the rights of victims of criminal acts are not widely accommodated, as the normative provision in the Act only states that the victim of a serious offence can obtain compensation from the state. With regard to criminal acts, it should be recognised that not all perpetrators can pay damages or compensation. So in this case, the state must play a role in restoring the condition of victims of crime, which can undermine the dignity and dignity of the victims

Abstract

This article aims to reveal the representation of Banyumas local wisdom values ​​as reflected in the Kembang Glepang anthology. Researchers interpreted data related to the value of local wisdom in the literary works of Banyumas writers in the Kembang Glepang anthology. The data in the research were obtained from interviews, observations and interpretations of the literary works of Banyumas writers in the anthology Kembang Glepang. The focus of this research is on the book Kembang Glepang which was used by the Culture and Tourism Service as an effort to explore literacy in Banyumas. Representations of Banyumas local wisdom values ​​as reflected in the Kembang Glepang anthology appear in art, language and discourse. In Banyumas, traditional art reflects local wisdom in various aspects, from themes, styles, to the techniques used. Art plays a crucial role in preserving local wisdom amidst the currents of globalization and modernization. Then what is more important is the linguistic aspect. The Kembang Glepang anthology contains various aspects of linguistic locality which make this anthological work unique. This linguistic aspect is concluded in the use of Banyumasan terms and proverbs in the various literary works published, the existence of local legends that inspired the birth of folklore, the use of certain ritual language in literary works, the existence of place names and people's names that symbolize Banyumasan, and the use of dialects. as well as language variations in narrative, dialogue, or in the poetry of the Kembang Glepang anthology. For the people of Banyumas, the ngapak dialect is not just a means of communication, but also a symbol of cultural identity.

Abstract

This study critically examines how organizational identity, meritocratic evaluation, and commercialization intersect to reproduce professional inequality within the Nigerian accounting profession. Employing a qualitative research design, it draws on document analysis and in-depth interviews with accounting professionals across diverse firms. Thematic analysis identifies four interrelated mechanisms. First, a dominant discourse of neutrality and technical objectivity obscures underlying power relations within the profession. Second, merit-based evaluation systems privilege elite educational credentials and embedded social capital, thereby reinforcing stratified access to career advancement. Third, intensifying commercialization pressures prioritize revenue generation and client acquisition, reshaping professional norms and performance expectations. Fourth, discursive strategies are mobilized to legitimize and normalize exclusionary outcomes. The findings demonstrate that organizational identity functions not merely as a symbolic construct but as a material and institutional mechanism structuring access to opportunities, recognition, and rewards. While meritocracy and market-oriented logics are framed as neutral and efficiency-driven, they operate in practice as instruments that reproduce structural inequalities. This study contributes to critical debates on professional stratification and institutional power, and calls for targeted interventions by policymakers and professional bodies to balance market imperatives with inclusion, thereby fostering more equitable career progression.
