Abstract

The main impact of urbanization is to increase urban population density. Increased investment in the industrial sector has opened up job opportunities in various sectors, including the informal sector. Street vendors (PKLs) are one of the informal sector jobs that are often found in plural urban communities. The plurality of the population in society creates different perceptions in terms of the type of work they are engaged in. This study aims to (1). Identify the socio-economic characteristics of PKLs; (2). Identify the strategies used by street vendors in maintaining their existence. This research is a descriptive-qualitative study obtained from interviews and direct observations of PKLs in Kendari. The informants were determined purposively. The analysis data is performed by compiling the data then interpreted by referring to the relationship between various concepts and social realities. The results showed that the street vendors in Kendari were generally villagers. They moved to Kendari because the village where they lived was considered no longer representative of their survival. PKLs are generally urban mobility actors who live on the edge of Kendari. To maintain their existence, they perform various ways, including by strengthening ties between ethnic groups, improving services, finding strategic locations, and making cheaper 'counter' products.

Abstract

West African countries adopt child fostering or kinship placement as a traditional form of social protection that balances care and support for families with limited resources, experiencing unforeseen setbacks; or requiring household support. The traditional kinship placement advocates the provision of nurturing and education for the child by the fostering family. However, the traditional kinship placement appears exploited with children taken away from their homes, by such familiar persons as relatives and family friends, who may or may not fulfill the traditional expectations of fostering. The aftermath is that based on the mistreatment experienced by several children, they are removed from their kinship placement and placed in agency care as survivors of trafficking. This again prompts the question of whether children removed from kinship placement should be considered trafficked children. This paper explores this situation by presenting the experiences of some children in kinship placement in Nigeria. Children’s narratives within the paper will provide a further understanding of how child fostering or placement could transform into child trafficking that will inform services provided to affected children.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the strength performance of concrete containing Date Seeds (DS) exposed to Sodium Chloride (NaCl) and Sodium Sulphate Na2SO4. In this study, we have replaced the Coarse Aggregates with Date Seeds (DS) by different percentages of weight i.e. (CA:DS)%, (100:0)%, (98:2)%, (97:3)% and (96:4)%. The constant water-cement ratio was used in all mixes i.e. 0.5. Workability, Density, and compressive strength were examined by casting 48 standard cubes of 100mm size, and exposure to the NaCl and Na2SO4 Solution for curing at 7 and 28 days. Test results demonstrated that workability first increases at 2% replacement but then decreases as replacement increases. The results of Density and Compressive Strength of Cubes cured in plain water and in mixed solution of NaCl and Na2SO4 were compared. It was observed that the replacement of coarse aggregate with date seeds was increases the workability of concrete. The density and compressive strength of cubes cured in plain water decreases to a small extent. For Compressive Strength, it was observed at 28 days, that the Compressive Strength of cubes placed in normal water for curing have greater values as compare to the cubes placed in the salt solution.

Abstract

Humans and the natural environment have a very close relationship; it can even be called interdependence. Humans have a very high dependence on fulfilling the necessities of life, the most important of which are clothing, food, and shelter which have the main source of raw materials from the natural environment, especially in communities whose farmers depend on the natural environment and land. The culture of people's lives in the shifting cultivation system called ogo is one of the main factors in forest and environmental damage in a broad sense because forests are not only related to grass and timber trees but also land, rocks, water, fauna. The research method used is qualitative with a case study approach. The data were collected through documents, in-depth interviews, and observations, and data analysis was carried out descriptively. The results showed that forest and environmental damage due to excessive use with the ogo culture of shifting cultivation with a period of three to four years resulted in reduced water reserves due to damage to water infiltration, floods, and landslides as well as damage to residential areas. Roads and bridges in the village of Nuanaga in February 2016. Ogo as a socio-cultural system of shifting cultivation is an act of rational choice by farmers in increasing income and the dignity of family life, despite frequent floods and landslides in the rainy season with high intensity.

Abstract

Carbon gas emissions that come from the use of non-renewable energy have a bad impact on the environment. So, comes the idea of ​​transforming Novel Renewable Energy as the main energy source because it is more environmentally friendly. This is a challenge for Indonesian. Because Indonesia has the potential for Novel Renewable Energy which can be utilized as the main source of national energy security. For the proposal to be successful, it must be accompanied by qualified regulations. However, the problem today that Indonesia does not have specific independent rules regulating Novel Renewable Energy. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the potentials of Indonesian’s Novel Renewable Energy as an alternative to the main source of national energy security. Besides, it is also to analyze legal support so that the environmentally friendly Novel Renewable Energy optimization program has the right legal basis. The research method in this paper uses normative research methods. The research approach of this paper uses a conceptual approach related to Novel Renewable Energy. The results show that Indonesia has big potential for Novel Renewable Energy as the main source of national energy security. So the environment-friendly Novel Renewable Energy will be realized as a source of national energy security.
