    Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis faktor-faktor yang melatarbekakangi permasalahan yang terjadi pada para anggota penyelenggara Pemilu 2019 dengan melihat dari perspektif Maqashid Syariah terhadap implikasi Peraturan KPU Nomor 36 Pasal 36 Tahun 2018 tentang persyaratan menjadi anggota Panitia Pemilihan Kecamatan (PPK) dan Panitia Pemungutan Suara (PPS), dan anggota Kelompok Penyelenggara Pemungutan Suara (KPPS) pada Pemilu serentak 2019. Penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian hukum normatif, metode pendekatan dalam penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kasus (case approach) dan pendekatan konseptual (conseptual approach). Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa Peraturan KPU Nomor 36 Pasal 36 Tahun 2018 memiliki kemudaratan dan mafsadah, kemudian dari 5 prinsip Maqashid ad-Dharuriyah juga tidak dapat dijaga dan dipelihara seperti Hifz ad-din (memelihara Agama), Hifdz an-nafs (memelihara Jiwa), Hifz al-aql (memelihara akal), hifz an-nasab (memelihara keturunan), dan Hifz al-maal (memelihara harta)

    Promoting decent employment for African youth as a peacebuilding strategy

    Get PDF
    This paper explores whether a stronger emphasis on decent work in ‘youth employment for peacebuilding’ programmes can be reasonably expected to bear impactful results. For most African youth, the problem is not unemployment per se, but rather jobs that are precarious, badly and irregularly paid, carried out under unsafe and exploitative conditions, mostly in the informal economy, and offering little or nothing in terms of security and upwards mobility. The paper emphasizes context-specific factors: programmes and interventions do not happen in sterile lab conditions. Who gets which jobs, and how, is just as important as the overall quantity of jobs created

    Measuring Gaussian rigidity using curved substrates

    Get PDF
    The Gaussian (saddle splay) rigidity of fluid membranes controls their equilibrium topology but is notoriously difficult to measure. In lipid mixtures, typical of living cells, linear interfaces separate liquid ordered (LO) from liquid disordered (LD) bilayer phases at subcritical temperatures. Here we consider such membranes supported by curved supports that thereby control the membrane curvatures. We show how spectral analysis of the fluctuations of the LO-LD interface provides a novel way of measuring the difference in Gaussian rigidity between the two phases. We provide a number of conditions for such interface fluctuations to be both experimentally measurable and sufficiently sensitive to the value of the Gaussian rigidity, whilst remaining in the perturbative regime of our analysis.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures. v2: version accepted for publicatio

    CONSTITUTIONAL LAW—THE CAGE A FETISH CAN BUILD: PROPOSED LEGISLATIVE REFORM FOR CIVIL COMMITMENT PROCEDURES IN SEXUALLY VIOLENT PREDATOR LAWS

    Get PDF
    Currently over five thousand individuals are indefinitely confined in the United States with little hope of release. The 1990s brought a wave of sex offender policy reform, creating Sexually Violent Predator Acts that allowed certain sex offenders to be detained after the completion of a sentence. Legislatures reason that some offenders have mental defects that cause them to lose the ability to control their violent behaviors, and until that mental defect is resolved they pose too great of a risk to live in the community. However, without precise definitions of mental defects or effective treatment options, these offenders are facing the probability of life-long commitment. Until researchers discover sex offender treatment methods that can provide them with a realistic chance of release, the government should limit sex offender civil commitments to those persons who have serious mental illnesses and not merely “mental abnormalities,” in addition to specified offenses that further the goal of the statutes. Given that there are extensive and effective safeguards in place for sex offenders living in the community, confining these offenders is not always necessary to protect the public. If the states narrowed the scope of who could be adjudicated a sexually violent predator there would be fewer civil commitments, and therefore a better balance between the state’s interest in protecting the public and the offender’s interest in retaining liberty

    Effective Viscous Damping Enables Morphological Computation in Legged Locomotion

    Muscle models and animal observations suggest that physical damping is beneficial for stabilization. Still, only a few implementations of mechanical damping exist in compliant robotic legged locomotion. It remains unclear how physical damping can be exploited for locomotion tasks, while its advantages as sensor-free, adaptive force- and negative work-producing actuators are promising. In a simplified numerical leg model, we studied the energy dissipation from viscous and Coulomb damping during vertical drops with ground-level perturbations. A parallel spring-damper is engaged between touch-down and mid-stance, and its damper auto-disengages during mid-stance and takeoff. Our simulations indicate that an adjustable and viscous damper is desired. In hardware we explored effective viscous damping and adjustability and quantified the dissipated energy. We tested two mechanical, leg-mounted damping mechanisms; a commercial hydraulic damper, and a custom-made pneumatic damper. The pneumatic damper exploits a rolling diaphragm with an adjustable orifice, minimizing Coulomb damping effects while permitting adjustable resistance. Experimental results show that the leg-mounted, hydraulic damper exhibits the most effective viscous damping. Adjusting the orifice setting did not result in substantial changes of dissipated energy per drop, unlike adjusting damping parameters in the numerical model. Consequently, we also emphasize the importance of characterizing physical dampers during real legged impacts to evaluate their effectiveness for compliant legged locomotion
