Abstract

Gender politics is a critical field of study that examines the power dynamics, social structures, and policy frameworks that influence and are influenced by notions of gender. This abstract provides an overview of the gender perspective within gender politics and delves into the challenges it encounters. Gender politics scrutinizes how societal norms, cultural expectations, and institutional arrangements shape individuals' roles and experiences based on their gender identity. By analyzing the intersections of gender with other axes of identity, such as race, class, and sexuality, gender politics seeks to expose inequalities and promote inclusivity. However, gender politics faces multifaceted challenges in its pursuit of equality and justice. One key challenge is the resistance to change from individuals and institutions invested in maintaining traditional power dynamics. Pushback against gender-inclusive policies, women's leadership, and LGBTQ+ rights underscore the deeply ingrained nature of these challenges. The struggle to dismantle ingrained stereotypes and gendered expectations poses another hurdle. Prevailing narratives that associate masculinity with strength and femininity with passivity can perpetuate discrimination and limit individuals' opportunities, reinforcing harmful binaries. Overcoming these narratives requires concerted efforts in education, media representation, and public discourse. Furthermore, navigating the global nature of gender politics presents complexities. Different cultures, histories, and levels of development result in diverse gender-related issues across societies. While some regions make strides in gender equality, others grapple with basic rights and access to resources, necessitating tailored approaches within a universal framework. The digital age introduces both opportunities and challenges for gender politics. Online platforms can amplify marginalized voices and facilitate organizing, but they also expose individuals to cyberbullying, harassment, and harmful stereotypes. Balancing the positive potential of technology with its negative consequences requires ongoing attention. The struggle for gender equality also intersects with economic disparities. Gender pays gaps, unequal distribution of unpaid care work, and limited access to economic resources disproportionately affect women and marginalized gender identities. Addressing these economic aspects is pivotal for achieving comprehensive gender justice. In conclusion, the gender perspective within gender politics critically analyzes power dynamics and strives for equitable representation and treatment. The challenges it faces, ranging from resistance to change and entrenched stereotypes to global variations and technological impacts, necessitate collaborative efforts across academia, activism, policy-making, and society at large. By acknowledging and addressing these challenges, gender politics can contribute to reshaping societies into more inclusive, just, and equal spaces for all genders.

Abstract

This study investigated the effect of foliar application of urea on the growth and yield of radish (Raphanus sativus L.) under field conditions in Parwan province, Afghanistan. A randomized complete block design (RCBD) with five treatments (0 g/L, 1 g/L, 2 g/L, 3 g/L, and 4 g/L urea) and three replications was used. Results indicated that foliar application of urea significantly improved plant growth and yield parameters. The highest values for plant height, leaf number, root length, root diameter, and root fresh weight were recorded at 3 g/L and 4 g/L urea concentrations, with 4 g/L producing the maximum. These findings suggest that foliar urea application enhances nitrogen use efficiency, increases radish productivity, and offers a sustainable approach to vegetable production in Afghanistan.

Abstract

MSMEs make a significant contribution to the Indonesian economy, particularly in terms of job creation and income distribution. However, challenges in marketing often hinder business development. This study aims to explore marketing aspects in the business feasibility study of Cak Narto's Javanese Fried Rice MSME in Surabaya using a descriptive qualitative approach. The analysis focuses on the elements of the marketing mix, including product, price, place, and promotion. The research findings indicate that, in terms of product, the business has a high level of feasibility due to the consistency of taste and the diversity of menu options offered. From a pricing perspective, the uniform and affordable pricing policy is considered effective in attracting and retaining customers. The strategic and easily accessible location of the business also supports its sustainability from a place perspective. However, the promotion aspect still has limitations, where marketing strategies rely more on direct communication and word-of-mouth methods, while the use of social media is still minimal. Therefore, optimizing digital promotion strategies is recommended to expand market reach and enhance the business's competitiveness. This study provides insights into the importance of marketing aspects in determining the viability and sustainability of culinary SMEs, while highlighting the need for innovation in marketing strategies to support more optimal business growth.

Abstract

Cooperatives and Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a strategic role in promoting financial inclusion in rural communities. MSMEs have demonstrated resilience during economic crises but still face significant challenges, particularly in terms of capital and marketing. Financial inclusion serves as a solution to improve MSMEs' access to financial services through both conventional and digital institutions. As community-based financial institutions, cooperatives have the advantage of providing inclusive financial services through savings and loans systems, financial education, and mutual economic support. The financial inclusion model implemented by cooperatives not only expands financial access for low-income communities but also strengthens local economic independence. This article analyzes cooperative strategies for enhancing financial accessibility, including their adaptation to financial technology to accelerate MSME financial inclusion. The study findings indicate that strengthening cooperative institutions and integrating them into the national financial system are crucial steps in ensuring the sustainable role of cooperatives and MSMEs in regional economic development.

Abstract

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME) in Indonesia play a vital role in the national economy, particularly in providing employment and contributing to Gross Domestic Product (GDP). This study aims to analyze the strategic role of MSME in supporting Indonesia’s economy amid global dynamics, focusing on the adaptive strategies implemented by MSME owners to respond to various challenges. The research employs a qualitative approach, with data gathered through interviews and literature review. The findings indicate that MSME in Indonesia continue to adapt to technological advancements, such as digital marketing and product innovation, to maintain their competitiveness. However, MSME still face challenges, including limited access to financing, complex regulations, and low levels of financial and digital literacy. The government has introduced various policies to support MSME development, but there is still a gap in their implementation across Indonesia. This study recommends enhancing access to financing, expanding financial and digital literacy training, and enacting more pro-MSME policies to encourage the sustainability and growth of this sector.

Abstract

The present study aims to investigate the antibacterial activity of copper oxide nanoparticles synthesized by the gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli. Biosynthetic CuONPs produced were tested on two pathogenic model bacteria, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PTTC 1707) and Bacillus cereus (PTTC1154). The antibacterial effect of the mentioned nanoparticles was investigated using two methods of determining (MIC and well diffusion). Dilution series were used to determine the zone of no growth in the well diffusion method from 160 to 5 μg/mL, and the diameters of the formed zones were measured in milliliters. Also, to determine the minimum growth inhibitory concentration (MIC) of each bacterium, a series of 10 tubes with dilutions of copper oxide nanoparticles from 320 to 0.62 μg/mL was used. The results of the findings indicated that these nanoparticles showed significant antibacterial activity on the tested strains, such that they prevented the growth of bacteria at very low concentrations. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of copper oxide nanoparticles for both bacteria (Bacillus cereus) and (Pseudomonas aeruginosa) was calculated to be 10 and 5 micrograms ml, respectively. The diameters of the halos formed by these two bacteria were also calculated to be 17 and 20 mm, respectively.

Abstract

Abstract Nigerian government spending on recurrent expenditures, particularly on financial intervention programmes, has increased during the past eight years. Despite this, the country is still recognized as a poor nation with a high percentage of poverty in Sub-Sahara Africa. Therefore, the study examined the effect of government spending on consumers’ welfare from 1986 to 2023. The reason for the timeframe was due to the adoption ARDL approach. The study used secondary data that was collected from Central Bank of Nigeria, Statistical Bulletin (2023), as well as, International Monetary Fund data base (2025). Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) and Philip Perron (PP) unit root test were used for the pretest; while Auto-regressive Distributed Lag was used to achieved the formulated objectives. Both the ADF and PP confirmed that lending interest rate was stationary at level; while, private consumption expenditure, recurrent expenditure, capital expenditure, and consumer price index were stationary at first level difference. The bound test confirmed a long-run association between the variables. The ARDL result showed that recurrent expenditure and lending interest rate were significantly and positively related to private consumption expenditure, whereas consumer price index was significantly and negatively related to it. Furthermore, capital expenditure was insignificant. It was concluded that recurrent expenditure was the only means through which Nigerian government boosts consumers’ welfare in term of spending, while maintaining lower lending rates and consumer price index support consumers’ welfare. Therefore, the study recommended that governments at the federal, state, and local levels should increase their capital expenditure through huge investments in infrastructure and other capital projects.
