Abstract

This study investigates the impact of urban structure and topography on public transportation effectiveness in developing countries. Using structural equation modeling analysis of survey data from 500 public transit users across five diverse cities, we examine how these geographical factors influence accessibility, reliability, comfort, and user satisfaction. Results indicate that both urban structure and topography significantly affect transportation effectiveness, with urban structure having a slightly stronger influence. Polycentric urban designs and moderate topography were associated with higher public transit effectiveness. User perceptions highlighted the importance of integrated planning approaches. The findings suggest policymakers should consider geographical contexts when designing public transportation systems, potentially through adaptive infrastructure and context-specific service models. This research contributes to a more nuanced understanding of public transit planning in varied urban environments of developing nations.

Abstract

This study investigates the effect of Hadith and character education implementation on student discipline in Islamic schools. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 70 students through a structured questionnaire utilizing a 5-point Likert scale. The analysis, conducted with SPSS version 25, revealed significant positive relationships between Hadith education, character education, and student discipline. Regression analysis showed that both variables significantly predict student discipline, with character education demonstrating a slightly stronger effect. These findings highlight the importance of integrating religious teachings with structured character-building programs to foster disciplined behavior among students. The study provides valuable insights for educators and policymakers to enhance disciplinary practices in Islamic educational institutions.

Abstract

This study explores the legal harmonization of cross-border trade regulations and dispute settlement mechanisms within the BRICS bloc, comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. With diverse legal traditions and economic priorities, BRICS nations face significant challenges in aligning their legal frameworks to foster seamless trade and effective dispute resolution. Using a normative juridical approach, this research examines regulatory disparities, existing dispute resolution mechanisms, and the potential for harmonization. The findings highlight key barriers, such as fragmented legal systems, inconsistent enforcement, and limited institutional capacity, while proposing actionable strategies, including standardized tariff systems, mutual recognition agreements, and the establishment of a centralized arbitration body. By addressing these issues, the study underscores the importance of legal alignment for enhancing economic integration and strengthening BRICS' position in global trade.

Abstract

This study examines the role of social engineering in the rehabilitation of drug addicts within Indonesia’s drug policy framework through a normative juridical analysis. The research evaluates legislative provisions, such as those outlined in Law No. 35 of 2009 on Narcotics, focusing on their alignment with social engineering principles and their effectiveness in achieving rehabilitation and reintegration. Findings reveal that while Indonesia's policies incorporate rehabilitative elements, challenges such as limited resources, inconsistent judicial practices, and societal stigma hinder optimal implementation. Comparative insights from countries like Portugal and Switzerland demonstrate the potential of adopting harm reduction and public awareness strategies to enhance outcomes. This study underscores the need for a more integrated, inclusive policy approach to strengthen Indonesia’s rehabilitation framework, reduce stigmatization, and promote sustainable recovery.

Abstract

The interplay between social engineering and legal frameworks significantly influences the effectiveness of drug rehabilitation policies in fostering socio-economic productivity. This study employs a normative juridical approach to evaluate the alignment of existing laws and policies with the goals of societal reintegration and economic empowerment. Findings reveal that while some jurisdictions demonstrate success through integrated and holistic approaches, many face challenges such as stigma, insufficient funding, legal ambiguities, and fragmented systems. A comparative analysis highlights best practices from progressive models, emphasizing the importance of comprehensive legal frameworks, inter-agency coordination, and community-based support. Recommendations include strengthening anti-discrimination laws, integrating support systems, increasing funding, and promoting public awareness. This research underscores the potential of law as a tool for social engineering, providing actionable insights to enhance the socio-economic outcomes of drug rehabilitation policies.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the development of research related to “futures options” using a bibliometric approach based on Scopus data with the keyword “futures options,” covering 280 journal articles for the period 1973-2024. The analysis was conducted using Biblioshiny in R-Studio for bibliometrics and VOSviewer for keyword network visualization. Results showed that dominant themes included implied volatility, stochastic volatility, and price dynamics with a focus on hedging strategies, risk, and derivatives market dynamics. The network visualization revealed modern themes such as sustainability and climate change, indicating the potential integration of these financial instruments with global sustainability issues. Inter-author collaboration was high, averaging 2.22 authors per document, with 22.5% of documents involving international authors. The study also noted high relevance with the average citations per document reaching 24.81 and an annual growth rate of 2.76%. Temporal analysis showed a significant increase since the 1980s, a peak in 2010-2020, and a decline in 2020-2024, influenced by shifts in research focus or the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Visualization through VOSviewer identified five main clusters, with implied volatility having strong connections to hedging and stochastic volatility, while new themes such as sustainability are still in the early stages of exploration. The study concludes that while the futures options theme is mature, there are opportunities for exploration in lesser explored topics such as the integration of sustainability issues and cross-regional analysis, providing a comprehensive picture of the research landscape and future directions.

Abstract

Waste management based on the Reduce, Reuse, Recycle (TPS3R) Waste Management Site is one of the strategic efforts implemented at the village level, such as in Abiansemal Village, Badung Regency, Bali Province. This study analyzes the challenges and opportunities in implementing TPS3R-based waste management policies using the Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF). The ACF identifies advocacy coalitions of actors with similar interests, beliefs, and values in driving policy change. The study results show various problems in the management of TPS3R, including a lack of public awareness, limited infrastructure and facilities, lack of sustainable funding, and weak institutions. External factors, such as regulatory changes and global pressures, affect policy effectiveness. ACF's analysis reveals that multi-stakeholder collaboration, including government, private sector, and community, is essential to achieve the sustainability of these programs. The solutions offered include increasing public awareness, strengthening infrastructure, adopting community-based business models, building institutional capacity, and coordination between stakeholders. With effective implementation, TPS3R can become a model for sustainable waste management at the village level, supporting the achievement of environmental targets and sustainable development.
