Abstract

Thiis study aiims to analyze the effects of agriicultural-sector GRDP, manufacturiing-sector GRDP, and per capiita expendiiture on iincome iinequaliity through employment absorptiion iin miicro and small iindustriies (MSIis) iin South Sulawesii Proviince duriing the periiod 2006–2025. Thiis research employs a quantiitatiive approach usiing secondary tiime-seriies data consiistiing of 20 observatiions obtaiined from the Central Statiistiics Agency of South Sulawesii Proviince. The data were analyzed usiing multiiple liinear regressiion, path analysiis, and the Sobel test wiith the assiistance of EViiews software. The results show that agriicultural-sector GRDP has a negatiive but iinsiigniifiicant effect on MSIi employment absorptiion. Manufacturiing-sector GRDP has a posiitiive but iinsiigniifiicant effect, whiile per capiita expendiiture has a posiitiive and siigniifiicant effect on MSIi employment absorptiion. Regardiing the diirect effects, agriicultural-sector GRDP has a posiitiive but iinsiigniifiicant effect on iincome iinequaliity. Manufacturiing-sector GRDP has a negatiive and siigniifiicant effect, whereas per capiita expendiiture has a posiitiive but iinsiigniifiicant effect. Meanwhiile, MSIi employment absorptiion has a posiitiive and siigniifiicant effect on iincome iinequaliity. The iindiirect-effect analysiis iindiicates that MSIi employment absorptiion does not siigniifiicantly mediiate the effects of agriicultural-sector GRDP and manufacturiing-sector GRDP on iincome iinequaliity. However, MSIi employment absorptiion siigniifiicantly mediiates the effect of per capiita expendiiture on iincome iinequaliity. These fiindiings iindiicate that strengtheniing productiive sectors, iincreasiing household purchasiing power, and developiing MSIis through iinclusiive poliiciies are necessary to ensure that economiic growth contriibutes to more equiitable iincome diistriibutiion iin South Sulawesii.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role and participation of women in the development of community-based tourism in Lantan Tourism Village, North Batukliang District, Central Lombok Regency, in the perspective of Islamic economics. The research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data obtained through interviews, observations, and documentation. The results of the study show that women play a role in culinary businesses and local products, homestay management, tour guide services, handicrafts, environmental management, and tourism promotion through social media. Women are also involved in decision-making through the SOLAH Tourism Awareness Group (Pokdarwis) chaired by a woman. Women's capacity building takes place through various trainings and workshops with educational institutions, the government, and the community. Supporting factors for women's roles include village support, training, and economic motivation, while the inhibiting factors include household burden, capital limitations, and social views. The analysis with the five dimensions of maqashid al-syariah shows that the protection of religion, soul, intellect, and heredity has been fulfilled, while the protection of property has been fulfilled in part because the increase in income is mainly felt by culinary actors. Thus, the involvement of women in Lantan Tourism Village is in line with Islamic economic principles and has the potential to realize economic independence and common benefit, although the equitable distribution of economic benefits still needs to be strengthened.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly recognized as a potential driver of productivity, innovation, and economic transformation. However, the economic benefits of AI adoption are not necessarily distributed equally across individuals, enterprises, and communities. In emerging economies, technological adoption occurs within social environments characterized by uneven digital capabilities, diverse cultural practices, and varying levels of institutional trust. This article develops a qualitative research framework to examine how local knowledge and institutional trust shape the pathways through which AI contributes to inclusive economic development. Drawing on the capability approach, institutional theory, and sociotechnical perspectives, the study conceptualizes AI not merely as a technological resource but as a socially embedded capability whose developmental outcomes depend on local interpretation, institutional legitimacy, and opportunities for meaningful participation. The proposed research employs an interpretive qualitative multiple-case study design, with small enterprises, community-based economic organizations, and local institutions in Indonesia as potential empirical settings. Data will be collected through semi-structured interviews, observations, and document analysis, followed by reflexive thematic analysis. The study aims to develop a context-sensitive theoretical explanation of how AI-enabled economic opportunities are translated or fail to be translated into broader participation, improved economic agency, and more equitable access to economic benefits. By integrating local knowledge and institutional trust into the analysis of AI-enabled development, the article seeks to contribute to debates on inclusive digital transformation in emerging economies.

Abstract

The transformation of global digital financial transactions requires Sharia-compliant corporations to modernize their daily cash management; however, the automation of treasury systems based on intelligent algorithms has the potential to trigger fundamental Sharia non-compliance risks such as gharar, maysir, and opacity in the calculation of returns. This study aims to evaluate the level of operational efficiency in corporate liquidity management resulting from the adoption of Islamic Digital Treasury and to formulate an integrative governance model that ensures substantive Sharia compliance. The research method employs a qualitative approach involving an in-depth critical literature review, analyzing international standards from AAOIFI and IFSB, classical fiqh al-muamalah literature, and reputable journal articles from 2020 to 2026. The research findings demonstrate that the adoption of an artificial intelligence- and blockchain-based digital treasury system can reduce cash management operational costs and accelerate working capital turnover. This study successfully synthesizes a conceptual innovation in the form of a three-tier governance architecture that aligns the Technology Acceptance Model with the pillars of Maqashid al-Shari’ah. Regulatory authorities and Shariah corporate management are recommended to immediately implement Shariah algorithm certification and integrate automated monitoring modules based on Shariah nodes to mitigate the risk of non-halal revenue cancellation in a structured and sustainable manner.

Abstract

The integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles into Islamic finance faces challenges in the form of a gap between formal compliance with sustainability standards and the substantive application of the values of Maqashid al-Shariah. The use of ESG indicators that do not fully take Islamic legal principles into account also risks overlooking the dimensions of tawhid, maslahah, and social justice. This study aims to analyze the harmonization of ESG principles with Maqashid al-Shariah and to formulate an integrated and measurable taxonomy of sustainability indicators. The study employs a qualitative method through a literature review using juridical-normative and philosophical-conceptual approaches. Data were obtained from ESG regulations, AAOIFI and GRI standards, journal articles, and Islamic finance literature, and were then analyzed using content analysis and conceptual mapping. The results produced the Maqashid-ESG Matrix framework, which maps environmental, social, and governance aspects into the five pillars of Shariah protection and the hierarchy of dharuriyyat, hajiyyat, and tahsiniyyat. This framework offers a more comprehensive, transparent, and public-interest-oriented basis for ethical investment assessment. The study recommends that the OJK and IFSB develop a Sharia green taxonomy, while Sharia financial institutions need to apply this matrix in investment screening, risk management, and sustainability audits.
