Abstract

This study examines indigenous knowledge systems in Tamil society through an ethnographic framework, with attention to the lived practices of region-specific and occupation-based communities. It analyses the transmission of knowledge embedded in oral traditions, ritual practices, ecological management, and artisanal production. Particular focus is given to domains such as ethnomedicine, agricultural cycles, water management, and sacred landscapes, where empirical observation and inherited wisdom converge. The study situates these knowledge systems within caste-based and kinship-structured social organization, demonstrating that knowledge is not abstract but socially embedded and functionally adaptive. It also considers the pressures exerted by modernization, state policy, and market integration, which have altered the modes of transmission and authority of traditional knowledge holders. By integrating field-based observations with historical and anthropological analysis, the study argues that indigenous knowledge in Tamil society constitutes a dynamic and context-sensitive intellectual tradition rather than a static residue of the past.

Abstract

Access to quality education is a constitutional right, but geographic and economic disparities often create gaps in education funding. This study aims to analyze the extent to which the distribution of education budgets in districts/cities in East Kalimantan Province meets the principles of fiscal equity. The primary focus is on identifying unequal allocations of education spending and the factors that drive disparities between resource-rich and underdeveloped regions. This study uses a descriptive quantitative approach with secondary data sourced from the most recent Budget Realization Reports (LRA) of districts/cities in East Kalimantan. Fiscal equity analysis is measured using the Gini Index to assess the degree of distribution inequality and the Coefficient of Variation to measure the dispersion of spending per student. Furthermore, horizontal equity analysis is used to compare equality between regions with different fiscal capacities. The analysis shows that significant disparities persist in education budget allocation in East Kalimantan. Regions with high natural resource (SDA) revenue sharing tend to have student education spending far exceeding the provincial average, while satellite and remote regions experience fiscal constraints. Although the 20% spending mandate has been administratively met, the effectiveness of its distribution does not fully reflect the principle of equity based on real regional needs (need-based distribution). This inequality indicates that reliance on regional original revenues and revenue-sharing funds creates a gap in the quality of educational infrastructure and human resources between regions. A fiscal equity perspective calls for intervention mechanisms through more asymmetric financial aid funds to balance weak regional fiscal capacity. Without distribution policy reform, education disparities in East Kalimantan risk widening long-term socio-economic disparities in the buffer zone of the Indonesian Capital City (IKN).

Abstract

This study analyzes the impact of fiscal decentralization on educational performance at the Senior High School (SMA) and Vocational High School (SMK) levels in Balikpapan City, East Kalimantan Province. Using the framework of human capital theory, this study evaluates the extent to which regional spending allocations are converted into student academic outcomes, as measured by indicators of literacy, numeracy, and graduate absorption. Using a qualitative method with a case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews with stakeholders at the provincial and educational unit levels, as well as documentation from regional financial reports (APBD) and the 2023-2024 Indonesian Education Report. The results show that although East Kalimantan consistently meets the mandated 20% education budget, the effectiveness of this spending is hampered by administrative complexity following the transfer of authority for managing secondary education from the city government to the provincial government. Multilevel analysis reveals a disconnect between high regional fiscal capacity and resource distribution at the school level, where managerial factors and school autonomy are more dominant determinants in influencing academic competency scores than simply nominal budget volume. This study concludes that strengthening fiscal accountability and policy synchronization between levels of government are essential to optimize education investment in the regions.

Abstract

Education financing is a strategic pillar in realizing an inclusive, equitable, and sustainable regional education system. Balikpapan City, which now plays a vital role as the main buffer zone for the Indonesian Capital City (IKN), faces new challenges in the form of a surge in population migration that has triggered a capacity crisis for educational facilities. This study presents an in-depth analysis of education financing policies in Balikpapan City in 2025. Using a qualitative approach with a policy evaluation framework and a literature review, this report evaluates the effectiveness of flagship regional programs such as the Provision of Free Uniforms and Private School Tuition Subsidies funded by the Regional Budget (APBD). Although these programs have successfully alleviated the burden on the community, evidence-based analysis (EBP) found that inefficient poverty data and universal budget allocations make these interventions less effective in addressing the fundamental problem, namely the lack of physical classrooms. As a solution, an Integrative Model for Education Financing was formulated that shifts the funding paradigm towards a Public-Private-People Partnership (PPPP) scheme. This model synergizes the regional budget (APBD) with the optimization of the Balikpapan Mayoral Regulation on One Integrated Regional Data, and draws on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) funds from the local oil and gas processing industry. This analysis recommends that the Balikpapan City Government strengthen data digitization to ensure precise subsidy interventions and direct private partnership funds toward school infrastructure development, supporting the vision of Balikpapan Comfortable for All 2045.

Abstract

This article synthesizes evidence on the relationships among institutional capacity, organizational culture, and the effectiveness of digital governance in public organizations, its implications for the development of future empirical research in more specific contexts. The review was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA 2020 guidelines and employed an initial corpus of 2,623 bibliographic records drawn from 20 RIS files compiled from Google Scholar, Scopus, and ScienceDirect. After deduplication, 2,231 unique records remained. A staged screening process based on publication year, public organization context, digital governance relevance, and conceptual fit produced 134 metadata-based candidates, which were subsequently narrowed to 15 priority studies for full-text review. The synthesis indicates that institutional capacity is most operationalized through regulation, coordination, interoperability, civil servant competence, capability, and organizational adaptive capacity. Organizational culture functions as both an enabling and constraining condition, particularly through trust, digital leadership, collaboration, learning, and public values. Meanwhile, the effectiveness of digital governance is most consistently reflected in service quality, administrative efficiency, transparency, public trust, public value, and government effectiveness. Cross-study findings confirm that the effectiveness of digital governance cannot be understood as an automatic outcome of technology adoption; rather, it constitutes an organizational outcome shaped by the interaction between institutional readiness and organizational culture that supports change.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of transparency, accountability, and participation on the effectiveness of school management. The study employed a mixed methods approach with a sequential explanatory design, involving the collection and analysis of quantitative data, followed by qualitative data to deepen the research findings. The sample consisted of 43 respondents, consisting of principals, teachers, and administrative staff from several public and private schools. Data collection techniques included questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. The quantitative analysis showed that transparency, accountability, and participation simultaneously had a significant influence on the effectiveness of school management. However, only participation had a significant effect, while transparency and accountability did not. The coefficient determination test showed that the three variables explained 76.6% of the variation in school management effectiveness. The qualitative analysis revealed that participation was the primary factor influencing the effectiveness of school management, due to the active involvement of teachers and education staff in program planning, implementation, and evaluation. Meanwhile, transparency and accountability have been implemented but tend to be administrative in nature and have not been optimally utilized in decision-making. Data integration shows that the effectiveness of school management is more influenced by active participation than by formal transparency and accountability. Therefore, improving the quality of participation is key to achieving effective school management.

Abstract

The dominance of Western human resource management (HRM) frameworks has long shaped organizational practices globally, often promoting standardized, efficiency-driven approaches grounded in individualism and rationality. However, increasing cultural diversity and globalization have exposed the limitations of these universal models, particularly in non-Western contexts where local values, traditions, and social structures differ significantly. This study explores how indigenous epistemologies can serve as an alternative foundation for HRM, offering more contextually relevant and culturally embedded practices. Using a conceptual and interpretive qualitative approach, the research synthesizes insights from HRM literature, ethnographic studies, and indigenous knowledge systems. The findings highlight that indigenous approaches emphasize relationality, community orientation, and holistic well-being, which can enhance employee engagement and organizational effectiveness. The study also identifies key challenges, including institutional resistance and the difficulty of integrating indigenous and modern HR practices. A conceptual framework is proposed to illustrate how culturally aligned HRM practices can improve organizational outcomes. The article contributes to the discourse on decolonizing management knowledge and advancing pluralistic approaches to HRM. It concludes that integrating indigenous epistemologies is essential for developing inclusive, adaptive, and sustainable HR practices in diverse organizational contexts.

Abstract

The increasing complexity of organizational environments and heightened regulatory scrutiny have intensified the need for effective approaches to promoting ethical workplace behavior. Traditional compliance training programs, while essential for raising awareness, often fail to sustain long-term behavioral change due to their episodic and standardized nature. This study examines the efficacy of microlearning as a continuous learning approach in fostering sustained ethical behavior over time. Adopting a longitudinal research design, data were collected across multiple time points to assess changes in microlearning engagement, ethical awareness, and behavioral outcomes. The findings indicate that microlearning significantly enhances knowledge retention and reinforces ethical principles through repeated exposure. This continuous reinforcement leads to increased ethical awareness, reduced unethical behavior, and improved accountability among employees. Furthermore, the study highlights the role of microlearning in facilitating the transition from compliance-based systems to value-driven ethical cultures. By supporting habit formation and integrating learning into daily work routines, microlearning contributes to the development of sustained ethical behavior. The study offers both theoretical and practical insights into the role of continuous learning in organizational ethics. It concludes that microlearning is a critical tool for embedding ethical behavior within organizational culture and achieving long-term governance effectiveness.

Abstract

In an increasingly dynamic and knowledge-driven business environment, organizations must develop agile workforces and effective knowledge-sharing mechanisms to sustain competitiveness. This study reviews and synthesizes human capital management (HCM) practices that enhance workforce agility and facilitate knowledge exchange. Drawing on a systematic and narrative literature review of academic studies, industry reports, and case evidence, the paper identifies key practices such as flexible work arrangements, continuous learning and skill development, agile performance management, collaborative cultures, incentive systems, and technology-enabled knowledge platforms. The findings highlight that workforce agility and knowledge sharing are interdependent capabilities that reinforce each other through cross-functional collaboration and learning-oriented organizational structures. The study also examines critical enablers, including organizational culture, leadership support, and technological infrastructure, as well as barriers such as resistance to change and structural rigidity. A conceptual framework is proposed to explain how HCM practices influence agility and knowledge-sharing processes, ultimately leading to improved innovation, performance, and organizational resilience. The review contributes to the HRM and knowledge management literature by integrating these domains into a unified perspective. It concludes that organizations must adopt flexible, learning-driven, and technology-supported HCM strategies to build adaptive and knowledge-rich workforces.

Abstract

The shift toward distributed workforces has transformed employee–organization relationships, creating new challenges for maintaining engagement and connection in digitally mediated environments. Traditional approaches to engagement, rooted in physical proximity and direct interaction, are increasingly inadequate in remote contexts. This article introduces the concept of the “parasocial contract” as a novel framework for understanding how employees develop perceived connections with organizations through digital communication and virtual presence. Drawing on a conceptual and thematic review of literature on digital leadership, virtual employer branding, and employee engagement, the study explores how these elements can be leveraged to re-engage distributed employees. The findings suggest that digital leadership—characterized by communication, visibility, and authenticity—plays a critical role in fostering trust and connection. Similarly, consistent and credible virtual employer branding strengthens employees’ identification with organizational values and purpose. Together, these factors create a mediated yet meaningful form of engagement that can compensate for the absence of physical interaction. The study contributes to the evolving discourse on digital work by integrating insights from HRM and media theory. It concludes that organizations must strategically align leadership, branding, and technology to build sustained engagement in distributed work environments.
