This essay explores the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in global business and communication, focusing on the challenges, prospects, and potential threats. AI has revolutionized various industries, offering increased efficiency, improved decision-making, enhanced customer experiences, cost reduction, and competitive advantage. However, effective communication is vital for successful AI implementation, given the technical complexity and ethical concerns associated with AI.

Responsible AI practices, reskilling/upskilling, cybersecurity measures, trust-building, and collaborative efforts among academia, industry, and policymakers are crucial to mitigate these challenges. By proactively addressing these issues, organizations can leverage AI to drive innovation, achieve a competitive advantage, and create a positive societal impact. The findings of this essay contribute to the understanding of AI's impact on global business and provide insights into effective communication strategies and responsible AI adoption.

<p><em>Although there are still different views on the criminal liability of legal entity, particularly related to the fact if these socio-real creatures have or have no criminal liability for criminal offenses committed within society, the positive law of the Republic of Kosovo does recognize the criminal liability of such persons. In this regard, by noting the importance of Legal entity within our society, their activity, their impact on various social developments, and taking into account also the possibility of non-compliance with positive-legal norms by the respective entities we will gradually tackle the general aspects of the legal framework which is dedicated specifically to the criminal liability of legal entity. Thus, the research will be focused on presenting general data related to: fundamental notions related to the legal entity along with its criminal liability, the historical aspect of dealing with relevant entities in terms of recognizing their subjectivity, while the main focus will be the treatment of criminal liability and criminal sanctions which pursuant to the legal framework of the Republic of Kosovo could be imposed in conjunction with the relevant entities. In addition, apart from treatment of criminal liability of legal entity in accordance with the current legal framework of the Republic of Kosovo, we will also try to address the respective matter in the comparative dimension, with special emphasis on the criminal legislation of the Republic of Albania. Therefore, we will gradually gather the data on how the criminal liability of legal entity is regulated according to the criminal legislation of the neighboring countries, more specifically we will focus our study on the criminal legislation of Albania. <em>The treatment of the chosen topic for study will be based on the application of: historical-legal metho</em><em>d, analytical method and comparative method.</em></em></p><p> </p>

Mert, İbrahim Sani; Antalya Bilim University
Courage, Perception of Courage, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, Türkiye
Organizational Behaviour
This qualitative study aims to investigate the traits and factors influencing how 155 people in Türkiye perceive courage by relying on the Lay Theory of Courage. Data were gathered by asking participants to name the most courageous person they know and describe why they perceive that person as courageous. The collected data underwent content analysis. The results revealed that Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of the Turkish Republic, was the most frequently cited person as the most courageous, followed by family members, public figures, historical figures, self, generalizations (general figures), and acquaintances, respectively. Atatürk's courageous personality drove historic change, marked by unwavering commitment, remarkable achievements, and exceptional bravery. Participants view family members as courageous for various reasons, including resilience, sacrifice, moral choices, and pursuing dreams. Additionally, those who selected themselves as the most courageous do so because they confidently pursue their goals, make fearless decisions, and stand up to superiors in a system where self-reliance is essential. The study's findings provide insights into how courage is perceived in Turkish society and shed light on its symbolic meaning.

<p>In recent years, due to global crisis and economic slowdown, major countries have been pushed to make economic actions. Currency wars have been debated and summoned again as before used in economic history to deal with economic slowdown by developed and emerging countries such as US, China, EU and Japan. Their actions on exchange rate policies would affect their bilateral trade balance as mentioned previous literature. Previous literatures have investigated bilateral country trade balance.

Initial Public Offering Effects on Volatility in US Stock Market
Omar Ahmed, Abdirahman Nor
Koy, Ayben
IPOs, US, S&P500, NYSE, Volatility, ARCH/GARCH, E-GARCH
<p><em>This paper aims to investigate the effect of Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) on stock market volatility in the United States using the Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) model. The study utilizes daily data from January 2020 to October 2022 on the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (S&P 500) and IPO firms listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) their IPO dates during the same period. The GARCH model is employed to estimate the volatility of the S&P 500 index stock prices after the IPOs announcements during the first day, first five days, and first ten days. The study finds that IPOs significantly impact volatility in the US market, and the effect is more pronounced in the short term. We discovered that IPOs after their announcements during the first five days have a negative impact on other stock prices in the S&P500 index. The effects are stronger for the first day of initial public offering come to the market while there is a negative impact on the 10th day of IPOs in the market but it is not statistically significant. The downward-sloping demand curve hypothesis is supported by these findings. These results have important implications for investors, market regulators, and policymakers. Investors should be aware of the potential for increased volatility during periods of IPO activity and adjust their investment strategies accordingly. Market regulators may need to consider implementing measures to mitigate the impact of IPOs on market volatility. Policymakers may also need to consider the potential economic effects of IPOs and the associated increase in market volatility to ensure a stable and efficient stock market.</em></p>

Economic development – A prerequisite for democratization Case of Kenya and Uganda
Cami, Giola; Istanbul Ticaret Universitesi
Faculty of Social Sciences
political changes, structure, capitalism, democratic, resources
<p>Political changes transforming a authoritarian regime into a democratic one is conditional on the ground of factors inciting the process. Economic development of a country is a prerequisite condition to shape democratic changes in a country - modern democracies have come into existence in economically developed countries. For a non-democratic country to become democratized the structure responsible for the shift of regimes is capitalism - responsible for the distribution of the produced wealth and creates middle class so needed for seeking accountability of governance. Wealthier countries have a predisposition to be “more democratic” which allows the average citizen to have access to resources, unlike “less democratic” regimes where access to resources is limited , not merit based and questionable.</p>

The Role of Justice Collaborations in Planned Criminal Actions
Aga, Cherissa Ratmoko; Universitas 17 Agustus 1945 Surabaya
Role, Collaborator of Justice, Crime
<p><em>Basically</em>, <em>Justice Collaborator is an individual who holds the dual status of perpetrator and witness in a criminal case, and cooperates with law enforcement to provide valuable information. The designation of Justice Collaborator is not only indicative of the individual's willingness to assist law enforcement in holding high-level criminals accountable, but also of their good faith in disclosing information or testifying in court. By acting in good faith and becoming a Justice Collaborator, one can receive protection, appreciation, special treatment, and certain rights that are not afforded to other individuals who do not hold this status. Criminal liability pertains to the legal obligations that law enforcement has to punish perpetrators for their actions that have caused harm to others. However, in Indonesia, there’s a lack of public awareness regarding the criminal liability of Justice Collaborators. It is important to note that although Justice Collaborators are both perpetrators and witnesses, they are not held to the same level of criminal responsibility as the primary actors in the crime. This article will delve into the criminal responsibility of Justice Collaborators in the context of law enforcement in Indonesia. The research methodology employed in this article will be normative law, which involves analyzing legal arguments and issues raised in order to arrive at a conclusion</em><em>. </em>Justice Collaborator is a term for someone who is involved in a crime and also provides assistance to law <em>enforcement as a witness. Justice Collaborator status is given to individuals who have the will to cooperate with law enforcement officials so that perpetrators of crimes can be processed, and have good faith in exposing or being witnesses in a case. By becoming a Justice Collaborator in good faith, the individual will receive protection, appreciation, special treatment, and a number of rights that are not granted to other actors who do not have Justice Collaborator status. Criminal liability relates to obligations in criminal law given by law enforcers to provide retaliation for actions that harm someone committed by the perpetrator. However, problems related to criminal liability for Justice Collaborators in Indonesia are still not well known by the public. Justice Collaborators as witnesses and perpetrators will still be given criminal responsibility, but not as heavy as the main actors.</em></p><p> </p>

Protection of Personal Data in the Care Application
Amelia, Mays; Universitas 17 Agustus 1945 Surabaya
Michael, Tomy; Universitas 17 Agustus 1945 Surabaya
PeduliLindungi, Personal Data, COVID-19
<p><em>The porpose of this study is to solve public doubts about the security of personal data in the PeduliLindungi application. This study uses a normative research method that is oriented to the rule of law and a case approach. The law in Indonesia has not regulated the violation of personal data leakage, so there are no strict sanctions against the perpetrators who leak personal data. Because there is no legal certainty in the protection of personal data, there are many crimes and result in the misuse of personal data. Currently the guarantee of personal data protection is only based on the ITE Law but there are no criminal provisions against perpetrators of spreading personal data. Because there is a legal vacuum, a draft law on the protection of personal data has been made, rules that can protect citizens’ personal data have been made, but these regulations have not been ratified. The government should provide provisions so that legal certainty is achieved. In this era of technological development 4.0, the government is required to be firm in establishing regulations related to cyber crime. Another way is to add the KTP function to replace the PeduliLindungi application to track the spread of the Corona virus because the KTP has guaranteed the security of one’s personal data.</em></p>

Public Procurement
<p>Force account has emerged to be an important procurement method in public procurement due to its potentials towards improving efficiency and cost reduction. As a result, the Government of Tanzania directed force account to be given precedence in the procurement of renovations, repairs, rehabilitation and remodeling works. Despite the potentials and initiatives undertaken, still there is a dilemma on whether most of the stakeholders understand clearly the concept, procedures and practices associated with force account. In response to the observed ambiguities, the study aimed to examine the existing guidelines on force account and practices and thereafter identify challenges experienced in the implementation of force account. The study was guided by cross-sectional surveys design whereby data was collected using key informant interviews, focus group discussions and documentary review. Thereafter, data was analysed using a constant comparative approach through the coding process used for categorising and comparing qualitative data. Findings indicated that the poor performance was attributed by the absence of a standardised force account guideline applicable throughout the country by the respective procuring entities. Also, the legal provisions on force account are insufficient for the sake of enforcing best practices. Therefore, regulatory authorities should ensure that the newly introduced force account guidelines are enforced accordingly so as to improve effectiveness and efficiency. Furthermore, there is a need for continued rigorous training on force account undertakings among stakeholders involved in order to continue improving practices and performance.</p>

Letters of credit, Charter Party, Bill of Lading (B/L), Discrepancy, Complying presentation
<p>This study discusses how charter party marine bills of lading should be made in accordance with the letter of credit-L/C method. In an L/C, in order that the obligation of payment of the applicant (issuing) bank and of the confirming bank, if any, against the beneficiary can continue, exporting companies are required to prepare documents in accordance with the UCP 600, ISBP 745 and terms of documentary letter of credit and present them properly (complying presentation).</p><p> </p><p>In order to prepare appropriate documents, it is essential for the exporting companies to act according to the three important criteria (letter of credit requirements, UCP 600 and ISPB 745) prevailing in this regard. Since competence of complying presentation requires a certain level of expertise, the exporting companies established in Turkey have experienced difficulties in terms of how to prepare documents and could not get benefit from payment obligation undertaking of the applicant bank and of the confirming bank, if any, due to the presentation of discrepant documents, getting export prices late, and payment of extra fees/commissions. Due to trade property, importing company’s demands and the conditions required by the legislation of the country where the exporting company is established, exporting companies are required to prepare many types of documents.</p><p> </p>In this study, the common mistakes that exporting companies in Turkey made in preparation of the charter party and the other types of B/Ls are analyzed, the basic and critical features of the charter party B/Ls, in particular, are considered and different and common parts compared to other bill of ladings are evaluated and how they can be organized properly according to letter of credit payment is shown.

The EU-Korea Panel Peport: A Watershed Moment for the Trade-Labor Nexus or Mere Symbolic Victory?
Koen, Louis; University of Johannesburg, South Africa

Law; trade law; labor law
trade, core labor standards, freedom of association
<p>There have been increased calls to link international trade law more pertinently with labor and environmental standards in recent years. This has seen a rise in the number of regional trade agreements incorporating labor standards. However, states have long appeared to be reluctant to seek enforcement of the labor standards through trade agreements. The EU-Korea panel report, considered in this contribution, is the first trade panel to hold a state to have breached labor standards in a trade agreement. This contribution reflects on this important decision and what it means for the trade-labor nexus in the future. However, this contribution also acknowledges the lack of enforcement mechanisms and questions whether trade tribunals with limited enforcement powers will be any more successful than the ILO in promoting compliance with international labor standards.</p>

Biomass supply chain, biomass, biogas, anaerobic digestion, supply chain network design
<p><em>Reducing dependence on fossil fuels, alleviating environmental impacts and ensuring sustainable economic growth are among the most promising aspects of utilizing renewable energy resources. Biomass is a major renewable energy resource that has the potential for creating sustainable energy systems that are critical in terms of social welfare. Utilization of biomass for bioenergy production is an efficient alternative for meeting rising energy demands, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and thus alleviating climate change. A supply chain for such an energy source is crucial for assisting deliverance of a competitive end product to end-user markets. Considering the existing constraints, a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model for waste biomass based supply chain was proposed in this study for economic performance optimization. Performance of the proposed modelling approach was demonstrated with a real life application study realized in İstanbul. Moreover, sensitivity analyses were conducted which would serve as a foresight for efficient management of the supply chain as a whole</em></p>

Foreign Trade
store atmosphere, purchase intention, music, lighting, customer
<p>Retailers must continually adjust to the realities due to the fast speed of today's society, which brings with it constant changes in fashion trends, technology advancements, and also the modification of lifestyle. Even though such improvements and adjustments are unnecessary, they must be made in order to keep the store attractive or to modernize the technical infrastructure and lower operating energy usage in the face of competition from new, similarly minded businesses. The functioning of the retail operation is heavily influenced by the architectural and design solution, where the customer must first arrive at the store, which then needs to draw them in and persuade them to make a purchase. Recent years have seen a rise in the importance of the shopping environment. Many stores rely on the fact that they have the most comfortable atmosphere, which forces the customer to stay in the store as long as possible. Sellers also try to make shopping an experience, making it necessary for the customer to feel satisfied in the store. Shopping atmosphere and control can help higher customer satisfaction. It is therefore very important to monitor the key factors that affect the atmosphere in the store. This article examines selected elements of the shopping atmosphere and its impact on consumers in electronic markets operating in Turkey, Germany, and England. It integrates research, survey, and observation into real terms of selected retail operations. Based on the findings, the conclusion on adapting selected factors influencing the atmosphere is proposed to improve the overall well-being of customers and thus their satisfaction during shopping.</p>

The Impact of Public Education Expenditures on Graduate Unemployment: Cointegration Analysis to Ethiopia
Dachito, Amsalu Chigeto; Jimma University
Alemu, Minyahil
Alemu, Berhanu
<p><em>Unemployment is amongst most pressing economic challenges the Ethiopian economy has long been experiencing. Though the country succeeded in targeting overall unemployment most recently, graduate unemployment </em><em>continued trending at higher rates over the years. We examined the impact of government education spending on the rate of graduate unemployment in Ethiopia, using yearly series of data over the periods spanning from 1991to 2019. The results of Augmented Dickey Fuller test revealed difference stationarity for all series of interest; while the suggested order of integration was one. The results of Johnson’s cointegration test indicated the existence of long-run equilibrium relationships among the variables entered the test model. In determining the impacts of inflation rate (CPI), economic growth (RGDP) and public education spending on graduate unemployment, we employed Vector Error Correction Model as it enables us capture the short-run and long-run outputs instantaneously. According to VECM regression results, inflation rate and expenditure on education were found to have significant impact on the long-run growth rate of graduate unemployment. While the inflation rate contributed positively, government expenditure has negative influence on the rate of graduate unemployment towards validating the Keynesian theory of employment. Besides, the impacts of both variables were found to persist in the short-run. Both are estimated significant and consistent in sign in the short-run. However, economic growth was found to have a trivial role in explaining the rate of graduate unemployment in both the short-run and the long-run periods. Moreover, the results of VEC causality analysis revealed a significant unidirectional causality running from economic growth towards public funds available for financing education; but no causality was suggested in reverse. We recommend a drastic measure to advance the education sector through suitable investments in a manner that will help in skills development, productivity enhancement and entrepreneurship growth. </em></p>

Brand Management Internationalization: Case Study of Nike
Bekheir Nia, Neginsadat; ISTANBUL TICARET UNIVERSITY
<p>Global branding relies on brand management internationalization, which is critical to building and managing brands beyond national boundaries. This requires developing brand strategies that address the specific needs and preferences of international markets while maintaining the brand's essential values and character. Various theories and models have been proposed to guide brand management internationalization, including the standardization-adaptation debate, the cultural dimensions theory, the brand identity model, etc. As a case study, Nike is a well-known global brand that has managed its international brand image through effective brand management strategies. Nike's success in international markets is due to its ability to balance standardization and adaptation in its brand management approach. Nike has also successfully leveraged cultural differences across international markets to create emotional connections with consumers. The use of technology and digital platforms has also played a significant role in Nike's brand management and internationalization efforts. Overall, brand management internationalization is a critical aspect of global marketing that requires a deep understanding of international markets, cultural differences, and consumer behavior. By leveraging the appropriate theories and models, companies like Nike can successfully navigate the challenges of international brand management and create strong global brands that resonate with consumers across different geographies.</p>

Fair-Trade Certification, Coffee, Social Responsibility, Ethiopia
<p>In Ethiopia, more than one third of foreign exchange is attributed to coffee product and the production process engages almost one fourth of the working population of the country. Small-scale coffee farmers producing for fair-trade market outlets are frequently considered to benefit from better prices and stable market outlets. Yet, some empirical studies are verifying this notion adversely. Therefore, this study tried to assess the impact of fair-trade certification on social responsibility and ethics of small-scale coffee farmers using both descriptive and econometrics techniques for the selected 383 respondents in Jimma zone of Ethiopia. The study investigated that the introduction of fair-trade certification among small-scale coffee producers matters the inquiry of social responsibility and development significantly. Logistic regression result indicates that, the coefficient for the variable fair-trade membership status is 3.412. This result implies that for every one-unit increase in fair-trade membership status, we expect 3.412 increase in the log-odds of the dependent variable employment creation. Also, the coefficient for the variable fair-trade membership status is 1.319. This shows that for every one-unit increase in fair trade membership, we expect a 1.319 increase in the log-odds of the dependent variable. Also, education level and family size affect child school enrollment significantly and positively. However, the coverage and development of fair-trade certification in the study area was very low. Therefore, extension of fair-trade certification should be well thought-out as one of sustainable development riding instruments among policy makers.</p>

<p><em>Turkey has always been a country that attracts the attention of investors due to its geopolitical position. Legislation regarding investment is shaped in line with the social and economic policies of the country. It is seen that our country has accepted investment-friendly regulations in the process up to now. In this context, the “Foreign Direct Investments Law” dated 2003 and numbered 4875 is the Law which should be examined as a priority. This Law brought two important changes in investment law. One of these innovations is the transition from the permission system to the notification system in foreign investment. The other innovation is related to who can be considered as a foreign investor. With the new regulation, Turkish citizens residing abroad will also be able to get investor status. We define stocks and capital market investments less than 10% and not giving a control on the company as indirect investments. Within the scope of our study, direct investments, indirect investments and their legal framework will be explained in accordance with the relevant legislation.</em></p>

<p align="center"> </p><p><em>This study, efforts were empirically to inspect the long-run association of total outstanding bank credit to the agriculture sector and its productivity in Ethiopia by employing a co-integrated VAR model technique, with annual data running from 1981–2015 agricultural productivity and total bank credit to the agricultural sector as variables of interest, and real government capital expenditure on agriculture, rural population, and seasonal break (dummy) as supplementary variables. A 1% permanent increase in agricultural bank credit was linked to a 0.13 percent increase in agricultural productivity. The speed of the adjustment coefficient was found to be negative and significant with 0.515 values, indicating that 51.5 percent of the deviation from long-run equilibrium caused by a disturbance and/or a shock in the system was eliminated within a year. Unlike to previous studies the financial development-economic growing nexus, there exist the absence of empirical research on causal association between agriculture productivity and bank credit to sector, at least as per the literature review for this study in Ethiopia. In summary, small-holder farmers in particular, and agro-industrial-based entrepreneurs in general, were excluded from bank credit in Ethiopia for a long time.</em><em> </em><em></em></p>

Rural Infrastructure and Smallholders Commercialization: Analysis of Crop Input Market from Jimma Zone, South-West Ethiopia
Haile, Minyahil Alemu
Dachito, Amsalu
Censored Tobit, Infrastructure, Crop Input Market Index, Commercialization
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><em>Commercial transformation of subsistence agriculture is vital towards transforming the sector, and the economy at large. Since agriculture accounts for the dominant role in terms of employment, foreign currency and source of staple food across developing countries, enhancing commercialization of smallholders’ agriculture is compelling policy choice among them. In this paper we examined the effect of rural infrastructure on smallholders’ crop input market participation with reference to Jimma zone. Censored Tobit approach </em><em>was</em><em> employed to model the relationships between degree of household market participation from input side and the provision of rural infrastructure. Distance to the nearest all-weather-road from the farm area was found important. Moreover, provision of rural credit services, communication services and rural market center have been significant contributors. Unfortunately, we estimated </em><em>trivial</em><em> coefficient for agricultural services in relation to rural commercialization. It </em><em>seems</em><em> surprising as various inadequacies in the provision of the services may be involved. The right approach for the future should consider efficiency as well as adequacy of the services being provided. It would be better to reach smallholders</em><em>’</em><em> with necessary hard and soft infrastructures towards realizing multidimensional growth </em><em>and</em><em> transformational </em><em>targets</em><em>.</em><em> Besides, </em>interventions intensifying rural access to information are vital. </span></p>

Carriage of Passengers, Cargo and Baggage by Air Aviation
<p><em>Transportation of both passengers and goods, in URT, has become a very important and paramount issue since the inception and commencement of the air aviation law in URT and the world in general. Several attempts have been made by partners’ states, that in the beginning, started and initiated a milestone journey to the point where the aviation law regime has reached today. The enactment of international laws governing the aviation industry had gone through several stages. With several challenges encountered and evidenced for several years, transportation of passengers and goods has become a must and paramount. URT as a party to several international air rules and Conventions, aircraft from within and outside URT, have utilized both domestic as well international conventions in ensuring that passengers and goods are transported within and all over the world and their safety and life are well safeguarded through air laws applicable within URT. This research article is aimed at examining various international conventions applicable to URT. The article generally attempts at showing the historical evidence on the carriage of passengers through various conventions to which URT is a party, and how transportation of passengers and goods has become possible. The research article also covers the issues of liabilities for air carriers operating in URT with a special focus on the Conventions that are applicable in URT and the extent of compensation that those Conventions guarantee as a result of personal or bodily injuries or loss of passengers’ goods that seem to be harmonized with current domestic aviation laws in URT. </em></p>

Impacts of Consumer Law No 6502 on Insurance Activities: Comparing With EU Law
Özkan, Ömer; Istanbul Commerce University
Karayazgan, Ahmet; Istanbul Commerce University
Distance Marketing, Insurance, Consumer, Directive on Distance Marketing of Financial Products, Law No. 6502, Turkish Insurance Legislation
As is often the case in many developed and developing countries, in our country, too, the consumer is protected and the extent and limits of this protection is expanding day by day. The last step in this direction was the Law on the Protection of Consumers No 6502, which entered into force on 28.05.2014 and provides important changes and developments. While these developments were achieved within the scope of the consumer legislation, in the insurance legislation area a strong protection has been brought comprising all insurers/insured which is independent from this and is not limited to the consumers. While this protection has been brought onto a new level with the Law on Insurance no 5684 which entered into force in 2007, it has been reinforced with the Turkish Law on Trade entering into force in 2012. While the Law on the Protection of the Consumer No 6502 provided a protection outside the insurance legislation for consumer insured it also has brought about diffused accountability in terms of implementation of the legislation The most important common issue in terms of legislation developments in the insurance and consumer legislation is the effort to reflect the principles, rules and developments accepted for consumers and insurance products/services in the European Union Acquis to national law.In this context our study has been assessed together with the principles and implementing procedures accepted by the Consumer Law in terms of insurance activities and the regulations included in the Insurance Law and related secondary legislation ("Insurance Legislation"). Meanwhile an attempt has been made to refer to the relationship between insurance and consumer legislation within the scope of the EU legislation.

Research Paper
<p>The contribution and significances of procurement audit towards the procurement activities brought several debates in the country. This study examined the influence of the procurement audit on the procurement effectiveness of public organizations in Tanzania. The study identified compliance audit, value for money audit and strategic audit as the main procurement audits that are implemented in the public sector. The specific objectives were therefore, to ascertain the influence of each of the stated procurement audit on the procurement effectiveness. The study was carried out in Dar es Salaam city, surveying five public organizations (TRA, TTCL, DCC, MSD and TANESCO) that were selected to represent all other public organizations in generalizing the findings. In this survey design, 154 respondents were selected via snowball sampling techniques to represent a total of 250 respondents in data collection. Primary data were collected by self-administered questionnaires and four PPRA reports were reviewed to compile secondary data. Data were quantitatively analysed using inferential statistics; correlation and regression analysis with the aid of statistical Packages for Social sciences (IBM SPSS Statistics 23). The findings revealed that, value for money audit has high significant contribution to the procurement effectiveness followed by the compliance audit. On the other hand, the strategic audit showed an insignificant contribution to the procurement effectiveness. The study recommends, the government and PPRA to emphasize and ensure matters and recommendations given by procurement auditors are dealt accordingly while also strengthening procurement audit so as to improve procurement effectiveness and public funds management at large.</p>

According to UNDESA 2017 report there exist 258 million international migrants globally in the year 2017 (United Nations, 2017). When it comes to being a migrant destination, the Middle East region is one of the major spots especially for migrant workers. The region is also a popular destination for Ethiopian migrants. It is estimated that 44% of Ethiopian migrants globally is found in the Middle East region (Kuschminder , et al., 2013). Ethiopians migrate to this region because of breach and omission of their social, economic and political rights in their home country. Moreover, they face various types and degree of human right abuses and violations in their way and destination to the Middle East. This article looks deep and analyzes the concept of human security and its implication in migration studies. Moreover, it emphasizes on challenges and human right violations that Ethiopian migrants face in their home country, in their way and destination in the Middle East that jeopardizes their human security.

This article underscores the pivotal role of high-quality services trade in global economic performance, specifically focusing on BRIC countries and Türkiye. The services trade is itself becoming an increasingly important research topic from theoretical, empirical and practical (policy) perspectives. It is suggested that ‘during the 20th century, the industrial sector was reducing its relevance and the third sector; the services becoming more and more relevant’.‘The services are playing an ongoing critical role in transforming international trade and investment patterns, both through enabling the development of value chains and through creating value chains in their own right. The paper highlights the positive impact of sophisticated services exports on economic growth in developing nations. The study assesses the evolution of BRICS' and Türkiye's services exports over the past two decades, using the PRODY and EXPY indices to measure sectoral productivity and export sophistication. The findings have significant implications for researchers and policymakers in developing countries, including Türkiye, as they navigate the changing global services economy. The keywords "services exports sophistication," "high-value-added services," "BRIC," and "Türkiye & Emerging Economies" capture the core themes of the research

Commercial Diplomacy in the Context of Export Sophistication: The MIKTA Case
Uslu, Meral
Commercial Diplomacy, Integration, Export Promotion, Sophistication, MIKTA
<p>Commercial diplomacy has been of interest to researchers in the context of export development due to the many empirical studies indicating that the international economic integrations provide more growth and employment for the governments and internationalization for the enterprises. Unlike the strict and/or regional economic integrations, MIKTA was created as an informal and cross-regional group of ‘middle powers’ bringing together Mexico, Indonesia, the Republic of Korea, Turkey, and Australia in 2013. Being distant apart from each other geographically and having many differences besides their similarities, each of the member states is considered influential in their regions and of high importance for the paradigm shift to a new world order. This paper aims to figure out if MIKTA has been utilized as a powerful advocate for enhancing exports of the member states while also resuming sustainable economic growth. For this reason, it is analyzed to what extent the members’ exports were and have become sophisticated, meaning capital intensive or labour intensive, over the past 20 years and how the members’ economic growth rates were contributed. For the analysis, PRODY and EXPY indices are calculated representing the sophistication levels of, respectively, product groups and the total exports of the states.</p>

The Effects of Oil on Economic Development of Chad
Abakar, Mahamat Souleymane; İstanbul Ticaret Üniversitesi
Resource Curse, Oil, Chad, Idriss Deby, Patronage politics
<p><em>Chad’s oil was extracted in 2003 by consortium oil companies and the World Bank. The World Bank and Chadian government agreed that once Chad starts to export oil to international market, the revenues would be used for development, but today evidence shows that oil production did not improve people’s basic necessities. The country remains one of the poorest countries in the world. This paper critically assesses the resource Curse in Chad by exploring the effects of the oil on Chad’s economic and social development. the finding shows that the declining of oil demand in 2016 has decreased the country’s import and Export due to the fact the country was heavily depend on exporting oil. Many of the Chad’s investments come from oil sector and since the investment in oil has been declining, foreign direct investment (FDI) also has fallen sharply. The paper also finds that rentier economy in Chad has permitted the president Idriss Deby to build a strong political elite that create a huge gap between the government and the civil society. the government uses public funding to support the patronage network, and that scenario has weakened institutions in Chad. The empirical findings have revealed that the oil production has exacerbated the already fragile economic of the country and that the government has no wills of development, this is why oil has a been a curse in Chad.</em></p><h1> </h1>

Industrial revolutions have played very important roles on the business world, the public and non-governmental organizations, which are defined as the third sector today, and have caused differences. The first industrial revolution and the fourth revolution at the beginning of the twenty-first century, in terms of leaving a structural and lasting impact, leave more radical traces than the others. In terms of both revolutions, "technological unemployment" and "technological unemployment anxiety", which are the most important macro variables, are common aspects. Every industrial revolution has social, economic, political, technological, legal and environmental effects. In this study, by making a literature review on technological unemployment, which is one of the most important parameters of the social and economic factors created by Industry 4.0, which is known as the fourth industrial revolution and still continues its process in the period of this study, strengths and weaknesses are discussed, opportunities and threats are evaluated and a SWOT analysis was made. By working on new business models, the concept of neo-Ludimz was introduced with a different perspective.

Carriage of Goods by Sea, with a special focus on Bill of Lading In Mainland Tanzania.
<p><em>All over the world, the shipping practice has become an evolving landscape and common issues, particularly in carriage of goods by sea. Again, the diversity of transport documents, bill of lading for example, has become a source of confusion and dispute among the shipping companies, bankers, carriers and cargo receivers. In advent and the rise of containerization system as a means of transporting goods from one place to another, it is a common practice, in some occasion that goods are transported and shipped with multimodal transport documents involved. Stakeholders in shipping sectors have been asking themselves with a number of questions on the matter in question without proper answers. One of the interesting questions, which are normally asked, is, for instance, on whether consignee who is named in such a multimodal transport documents covering goods carried partly by sea, may make use of the statutory provisions on the receipt function of bills of lading if any difficulty arises, and possibilities of such documents to be treated as a bill of lading in the eyes of the existing laws. The next alarming and puzzling question among shipping companies is on different parcels of cargo, which is intended to be loaded at different destination, what particulars in relation to such cargo should be shown in such consolidated bill of lading and what will be its evidential effects as per laws. Another puzzling issue which has raised eye brows among shipping stakeholders is on the problem of presence of defects in goods under consolidated bill of lading practice in as far as laws are concerned. Here, such confusion is possible since the determination of the dispute may seem to be difficulty under prevailing circumstances. This research article therefore, intends to unearth the issue of diversity of the of transportation documents including bill lading in carriage of goods by sea with a special focus on domestic and international law practice in Mainland Tanzania. To make all what have been stated above possible, there is a need of having a strong legal framework built by coherence of both domestic and international law rules. </em></p>

The Role of Air Transport in the Development of International Tourism
Zajac, Grzegorz; University of Information Technology and Management in Rzeszow
Aviation, Tourism, Air Transport, International Tourism, Air Travel
There are close links between air transport and international tourism. The latter, in a significant way has an impact on the development and stimulation of changes in aviation and, in particular, this applies to establishing new routes or increasing competition by the emergence of new air carriers. The essence of aviation is manifested in the aviation business travel and learning about the new States. Therefore, a change that has been made in aviation in the second half of the 20th century is a breakthrough. It is about a liberalization of this sector, which has enabled the development of international tourism. There are plenty of benefits for the development of tourism coming from the liberalization of aviation sector. Thanks to competitive prices and continually increasing offer of air connections to various places in the world, demand for tourism is growing trend. Among the factors hampering the development of aviation tourism, the following should be included: maintaining the visa requirement for many countries, the threat of terrorist attacks, a set of factors in the structure of tourism and safety issue. When it comes to Europe, along with the implementation of the common policy of the European Union, the sector of the tourism industry started to develop. Eliminating internal barriers and the gradual implementation of the freedom of movement of persons, services and capital has led to an increase in the demand for tourism in the EU. Europe is an attractive tourist destination in the world.

<em>Japan and the US are two major global trading partners that have at times been at odds regarding each other’s international trade policies. In particular, the ongoing US trade deficit in goods with Japan has been one of the primary disputes between Japan and the US. However, the recent withdrawal of the US from the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) sent a clear signal that the US would take a new approach to international trade issues and has potentially paved the way for a bilateral free trade agreement (FTA) with the remaining TPP countries, including Japan. This paper contributes to the debate on the potential economic impact of a Japan–US FTA (JUFTA) by evaluating whether it could enable the US to eliminate its trade deficit in goods with Japan. To do this, we measure the potential impact of a JUFTA using a dynamic Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP) model. We find that a JUFTA is unlikely to enable the US to eliminate its trade deficit in goods with Japan, although the deficit will certainly decrease as a result.</em>

<p><em>Trust issue gradually becomes more of a concern in the 21st century business environment. Recent research sheds light on the erosion of trust to brands on a global basis. Traditionally, trusted third parties take place to ensure the trust needed for business transactions to take place. Digitization, advances in peer-to-peer networks and cryptographic technologies have advanced to such a point that exchange of currency, as in the case of Bitcoin, and even value as in the case of property rights, securities, ownership etc. can be done over Internet with Blockchain technology serving as a trust layer baked into the protocol. Blockchain technology serves as the missing trust layer in the evolution of Internet. This paper explores implications of Blockchain technology on marketing discipline from various aspects. The paper pinpoints the key strategies marketers need to adopt to survive in the rapidly evolving business landscape. Finally, conclusions are drawn regarding future direction of marketing as affected by those technological advances.</em></p>

<p>This study examines the impact of supply chain responsiveness, flexibility, and quality on a firm’s ability to attract, satisfy and retain its customers. Moreover, mediating impact of logistics process responsiveness among operation system responsiveness, supplier network responsiveness, supply chain flexibility, supply chain quality, and customer development is examined as well. For this study we have used the quantitative approach, a survey-based method for data collection with a total of 155 questionnaires distributed to FMCG firms in Jakarta with 119 usable responses retrieved. The effects of supply chain responsiveness, flexibility, and quality on customer development were analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modeling (SEM-PLS). The result confirmed the positive impact of supply chain responsiveness, flexibility, and quality on customer development. The finding also showed that the operations system responsiveness, supplier network responsiveness, supply chain flexibility, and quality drive the logistics system responsiveness. Additionally, logistics process responsiveness partially mediated the effect of operations system responsiveness, supplier network responsiveness, supply chain flexibility, and supply chain quality on customer development.</p>

Assessing Determinants of Nepali International Trade: A reference to the World Trade Organization
GC, Arun; Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development, Government of Nepal
<p><em><span>Nepal, a land-locked by two giant economies - China and India, is the first "Least Developed Country" (LDC) to become a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO) through the negotiation process. Moreover, Nepal aimed to diversify its trade and to make the trade regime more liberal to integrate into a global trading system being a member of the WTO. Therefore, the paper aimed to evaluate the impacts of determinants of Nepali international trade. The secondary data were accessed from the Nepal Rastra Bank and the World Bank. More importantly, to execute a multiple regression model, we used the World Bank data from 1965 to 2015. The result suggested that Agricultural value addition, industrial value addition and service value addition showed a different impact on Nepali international trade. The determinants of Nepali international trade can be internalized in the trade policy of Nepal to achieve its initial objectives.</span></em></p>

Employee Job Satisfaction According to Education Level, Age and Work Experience
Pehlivanoğlu, M. Çağrı; Istanbul Kent University
Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences,
Business Administration Department
Job Satisfaction, Education Level, Age, Work Experience
<p>In today's corporate environment, employee job satisfaction is essential to business performance. Job satisfaction may be influenced by a variety of employee demographic factors, and the potential outcomes require numerous sector-specific studies in the field. This study investigates the differences that might be created by a set of individual demographic variables such as job education level, age, and work experience on employees' job satisfaction. The Job Satisfaction Index created by Brayfield & Rothe (1951) and shortened by Judge et al. (1998) was utilized as the measurement tool. Convenience sampling was used to distribute the questionnaires to employees serving as store salespeople in the retail sector. 350 questionnaires were collected in total and 315 valid questionnaires were taken into final analysis. The variables were examined using the <em>ANOVA</em>, and <em>Tukey</em> tests. As the result of the analysis, it was observed that age and work experience do not cause any difference in the average job satisfaction scores of employees, but education level does. According to the research sample, the participants' job satisfaction scores differ depending on whether they have a university education or not. Employees with a university education have relatively lower job satisfaction average scores than employees without a university education. The study provides several suggestions for retail organizations on people management and recommendations for future researchers regarding the analysis of demographic variables.</p>

The Role of International Trade in the Development of the Countries
Demirbilek, Atilla; ISTANBUL COMMERCE UNIVERSITY
Civelek, Mustafa Emre
Foreign Trade Volume, Export/Import Coverage Ratio, Gross Domestic Product per Capita, Purchasing Power Parity
<p><em>Our study aims to investigate the impact of foreign trade on economic growth and welfare of a country, using foreign trade volume and its coverage (i.e. export versus import) ratio representing foreign trade while gross domestic product per capita and purchasing power parity represent economic growth and welfare. Knowing that foreign trade boosts the whole economy, gross domestic product (GDP) per capita is a good indicator of an economic output but does not reflect the differences in the cost of living of countries. The challenge in this study is to develop more complementary indicators that can help bridge the gap between GDP per capita and economic well-being. Purchasing power parity (PPP) compares different countries’ economic output using a standardized metric based on a common basket of goods and services. Using PPP exchange rates in addition to a country's gross domestic product (GDP) may help to provide a more detailed picture of a country's economic health. Multiple regression analysis was utilised to test the hypotheses of this study. Secondary data was used in this study. The analyses were performed with SPSS. As a result of the data analyses and tests of hypotheses conducted in this study, it has been empirically proven that foreign trade volume and export/import coverage ratio have positive</em> impact on gross domestic product per capita which has a significant impact on purchasing power parity.</p>

<p>Blockchain is known as a digitalized, decentralized online computer network on which a public ledger of all cryptocurrency transactions stored and it attempts to create and share all transactions that are verified by using a peer-to-peer (P2P) connected computer network. From the point of production to the truncating the international trade finance process or recording the customs procedures control, many companies are taking the advantages of blockchain technology day by day. The development of peer-to-peer payment systems make the crypto-currencies capable of dealing with not only the individual money transfers but also with the international trade activities. Expected result of this development is an increase the international trade volume in the short run. There are both threats and opportunities in terms of blockchain-based peer-to-peer commercial transactions. And also, some strengths and weaknesses due to the internal structure of the blockchain system. In this study, we are analyzing online peer-to-peer commercial activities via SWOT analysis from the perspective of institutions. It is expected that this study will enable to analyze the major factors of the peer-to-peer transactions in international trade facilities by applying "SWOT analysis". Even though there are a lot of research about blockchain in the local literature, institutional dimension in terms of the state-of-the-art cases of the adoption of blockchain in transport and logistics are studied scarcely in Turkey and hopefully will guide the academicians who want to work in this field.</p>

The purpose of this paper is to measure the potential impact of the Japan–China–USA Free Trade Agreement (JCUFTA) on Japan; in particular, on the Japanese agricultural sector using static and dynamic GTAP models. When tariffs are eliminated between Japan, the USA and China, the GDPs of the three countries will all increase, but the impact on the GDPs of the three countries is less than 1% in both static and dynamic models. The results also show that the total value of agricultural production in Japan is expected to decline by more than 10%.</p>

In running the regional government, it is undeniable that something will happen that creates a vacancy, in this case there are also many deputy regional heads who quit before their term of office expires, such as resigning, dying from a long-standing illness, and there are also those whose positions are terminated. In Law Number 10 of 2016 concerning the second amendment to Law Number 10 of 2015 concerning the Stipulation of Government Regulation in Lieu of Law Number 1 of 2014 concerning the Election of Governors, Regents and Mayors to become Laws, precisely in the provisions of article 176 paragraph ( 4) who wants to fill the vacancy for the deputy regional head who still has a remaining position of more than 18 (eighteen) months. The absence of a legal norm that limits the maximum time for filling vacancies in the position of deputy regional head is a factor why there is no refilling of the position of deputy regional head in Indonesia.

<p>This study investigates whether Somalia’s forward integration into global value chains (GVCs) sets it up as a pollution haven, while controlling for the effects of gross domestic product, renewable energy, urban population and trade openness. Annual time-series data set for the period 1992-2018 is analyzed via dynamic least squares regression analysis. The empirical results show that a percentage rise in the domestic value added of Somalia’s exports causes an increase of 0.274% in CO<sub>2</sub> emissions. The study outcome therefore reveals that forward integration into global value chains significantly aggravates environmental pollution in the country. This is in confirmation of the study hypothesis that Somalia may be serving as a pollution haven because of the relatively lax environmental policies that permit the inflow of pollution-intensive foreign direct investments. It may also be due to the dominance of primary commodities in its exports which places it at the beginning of the GVC spectrum. A number of policy recommendations are provided.</p>

CEFTA, Bosnia and Herzegovina, modified RCA index, trade relations, export
As a member of CEFTA, Bosnia and Herzegovina is trading with other countries in accordance with the principles of this organization since 2007. The subject of this paper is to analyse the trade relations of B&H within the CEFTA countries in the period from 2013 - 2015. As an analysis tool used is a modified Balassa RCA index for analysing the competitiveness of industry in B&H in comparison to other Member States. Analysing the top 10 export tariffs in comparison with other CEFTA countries, individual results showed that B&H is competitive in major export industries (in all cases over 50% of the top 10 export products is competitive), but, on the other hand, B&H has recorded constant aggregate deficit compared to other countries.

<p> </p><p><em>In the technological products and services market, which operates under rapidly changing market conditions and where competition is intense, firms need to offer well-developed innovative products and services to the market in order to maintain their existence in the long term. However, firms need to have a range of internal capabilities to produce these innovative products and services. The key for firms to keep up with the intense competitive environment and to achieve the firm performance, which is the ultimate goal of each firm, is possible with the presence of product innovation capability and process innovation capability, which are the two sub-dimensions of innovation capability. In our study, the relationships between product innovation capability and process innovation capability, which are the two sub-dimensions of innovation capability, and firm performance were examined. The combination of product and process innovation capability plays a critical role in the success of firms. At this point, the complementary feature that exists between both abilities gains importance. The research was conducted with 220 questionnaires collected from the middle/senior managers of 120 firms operating in the field of technology. The data were analyzed by partial least squares method in SmartPls4 program. The results reveal that product innovation capability and process innovation capability have a positive impact on firms' performance.</em></p><p><strong><br /></strong></p>

Role of Environmental Uncertainty in the Effect of Innovativeness and Sustainability in Supply Chain on a Company’s Performance
Soylu, Demet
Yıldırım, Figen
Innovativeness, Supply Chain
<p>The acceleration of industrialization in parallel with the increasing world population has facilitated humanity’s use of natural resources in an extravagant, uncontrolled and even ruthless manner. Sustainability is a philosophy that aims to put an end to this tendency, ensure that these resources are used in a more controlled manner, and minimize, or if possible, eliminate damage on the nature. It is essential for organizations, especially export companies, to determine the maturity levels in sustainable supply chain approach and make the necessary improvements in order to achieve competitive advantage. As a result of digitalization, enterprises, which establish the right partnership relationship management scenarios create competitive advantages for themselves. In this study, the importance of innovation even in an environment of uncertainty and the contribution of sustainable supply chain management on the exporter performance was analysed. The study is developed based on the question: <em>“What is the role of environmental</em> <em>certainty or innovativeness in the relationship between sustainable supply chain management and the exporter company performance?”</em> </p>

Fair-Trade certification, Coffee, Economic Impact, Ethiopia
<p>In Ethiopia coffee production is one of the most important sectors of livelihood, and the largest portion of coffee production comes from smallholder farmers. Small-scale coffee farmers producing for fair-trade market outlets are commonly considered to benefit from enhanced prices and established market channels. Nevertheless, some empirical studies are validating this conception adversely. This study, consequently, tried to assess the impact of fair-trade certification on the economy of small-scale coffee producers using both descriptive and econometrics techniques for the selected 383 respondents in Jimma zone of south west Ethiopia. According to the finding of the study; educational level, status of household head, fair-trade membership position, market and infrastructure access variables are statistically significant and determine income of smallholder coffee farmers positively. Logistic regression result indicates that, the coefficient (or parameter estimate) for the variable fair-trade membership position is 3.383. This means that for every one-unit increase in fair-trade membership, we expect a 3.383 increase in the log-odds of the income increment, keeping all other independent variables constant. Therefore, leeway of fair-trade certification ought to be reflected as one of poverty and susceptibility reduction implements among economic strategists and practitioners.</p>

The Relationship between Credit Interest, Credit Volume and Net Profit in the Turkish Banking Sector
Salimli, Salim; Istanbul Commerce University

Research Article
<p>In the last two decades, foreign capital investments in the financial sector of emerging markets have increased tremendously. Foreign direct investment is now important for every country. With the development of globalization, foreign capital investments have started to take place more in the financial sector. Turkey, which is among the developing countries, is among the preferred countries for foreign direct investments. The regulations that took place after the crises in the banking sector in 2000 and 2001 and the growth trend in the world economies made the banking sector attractive. It cannot be denied that foreign investments have positive contributions to the current account deficit, employment, gross domestic product, and raising quality standards with competition rules. In addition, the indirect effect of foreign capital is a larger increase in the deposit and loan volume of the banking system due to the increase in production, and an increase in trade volume and profit. The secondary effects of foreign capital investments on the sector are that it creates a multiplier effect on service standards, product variety and profit margin together with developing market conditions. This study describes the tests and analyzes on the effect of loan interest net profit and volume of the Turkish banking sector on the net profit of public and private banks.<strong> </strong>The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of non-performing loans on banks' profits. Since profitability is a very broad concept, models covering the return on assets ratio and return on equity ratio, which are widely used in studies in the literature, have been established. Unlike other studies, the effect of non-performing loans on the net profit margin is also examined. The study is carried out on banks with at least 100 branches operating in Turkey. In practice, the relationship between the net profit margin of non-performing loans, return on assets and return on equity is analyzed using the data for the period 2012-2021.</p>

Meaning the Phrase “Own Demand” in Leadership In East Java
Michael, Tomy; Faculty Of Law Universitas 17 Agustus 1945 Surabaya
leadership; phrase “own demand”; east java
<p>This study uses normative legal research that uses legislation and current conditions to carry out legal interpretation. In this case, the phrase "self-request" is defined as a request that originates from his own awareness that his actions have harmed the community. This means that there is no conflict preceded by the act of resigning oneself. Self-awareness of actions is important to understand the meaning of “self-demand”. The Governor of East Java is better off resigning at his own request because this action will make the state focus on legal certainty.</p>

Power Consumption Estimation Using Artificial Neural Networks: The Case of Turkey
Metin, Havva Hilal; Istanbul Commerce University
Kaçtıoğlu, Sibkat
Electric energy, prediction, future, artificial neural networks, electricity consumption estimation.
<p><em>A significant proportion of the world energy consumption is by developing countries. As a developing country, Turkey is one of the leading countries in terms of the increase in energy demand. According to the data from the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources, Turkey is the country with the greatest increase in demand after China in electricity and natural gas consumption since 2000. In 1970, the ratio of total energy production to consumption in Turkey was 76%. In year 2000, this ratio dropped down to 35%, in year 2010 to 26% and predicted to come down to 23% by year 2020. This situation indicates an increase in Turkey’s energy dependency every passing year and the need to implement solutions to reduce this dependency. Today, electric energy has become a very critical and indispensable part of the development of technology. Production and consumption of electrical energy, which facilitates human life and increases labour productivity, are increasing every year. Electricity is a versatile and easily controlled form of energy. Electricity is practically non-existent and non-polluting at the point of use. Electricity can be cleanly produced by completely renewable methods such as wind, water and sunlight at the production point. Electricity market has a unique feature compared to other commodities. This feature requires the consumption of electricity when it is produced. Forecasting the future consumption of electricity in Turkey is crucial in making strategic plans for the future and taking the necessary measures. In Turkey, the consumption of electricity in the estimation studies were generally observed that the use of long-term electricity consumption prediction method of neural networks. In some studies, the results obtained by artificial neural network method are compared with Box-Jenkins models and regression technique. As a result of comparison, artificial neural networks seem to be a good predictor of electricity consumption. In this study, electrical consumption is modelled by using artificial neural network method and the results are discussed. In the application, the four main factors that affect the electricity consumption in Turkey is considered as independent variables. These independent variables are; Population, Imports, Exports, Gross Domestic Product (GDP). How these independent variables affect the electricity consumption in the country was found as the result of the tests made and the results were evaluated.</em></p>

Prevalence, Causes and Treatment of the Criminal Offense of Theft According to the Criminal Legislation of the Republic of Kosovo
Kryezi, Alban
Theft, Property Right, Stolen Property, Perpetrators
<p>The Constitution of the Republic of Kosovo determines that the right of property is guaranteed and arbitrary deprivation of property is prohibited. Crime against property includes the acts of misappropriation of another's property by violence, acts of damage to another's property without legally justifiable motives, changing the property of another without his permission or knowledge, etc. This paper tries to give a general illustration on the crimes committed against property, the forms of commission and the punishments carried out according to the relevant laws. Through this investigation, an attempt is made to give a clearer meaning of the term theft from a professional and social perspective. To achieve the required results a questionnaire consisting of several questions was used, most of which contained alternatives with the possibility of multiple choices. The questionnaire is distributed and monitored online. the research method is quantitative through which the data will be interpreted in such a way as to obtain numerical values about the various aspects related to the act of theft. The frequency of thefts in Kosovo takes a numerical value above eighty percent of all surveyed cases. Acts of illegally taking the property of another individual in the Republic of Kosovo are more pronounced during the summer season. The material goods that are most often stolen in the Republic of Kosovo are coins and gold. Technological devices and household appliances, especially mobile telephones, are the second most stolen category in Kosovo. In Kosovo, even personal cars are subject of theft in a smaller percentage. Fewer thefts in the Republic of Kosovo are committed on domestic animals. Thieves in Kosovo commit the act of illegally taking another's property in most cases secretly and the most frequent places in which the act of theft is committed in Kosovo are private houses or apartments. Most of the theft cases in Kosovo do not have a perpetrator discovered by the Kosovo justice authorities. The main cause of theft in Kosovo is the lack of suitable economic conditions and the financial crisis.</p>

Granger Causality, Inflation, Phillips Curve, Unemployment
<p><em>The puzzle of unemployment and inflation has remained controversial. The choice between the two ends up with cost borne from the other end. Of course, the policy aim is to keep them both to their minimum possible rates. Countries need to examine the dynamics between the two and choose one with lesser harm to the general system. We applied Granger Causality approach to examine the nature of causality between inflation and unemployment to Ethiopia, using a time series running from 1984 to 2018. Accordingly, the-two-way causality between inflation and unemployment (cyclical) variables has been confirmed. Thus, macroeconomic policies need to appreciate this interdependence while designing policy settings. </em></p>

A Brief Comparative Study between Indonesian Contract Law Under Indonesian Civil Code and Singapore Contract Law

Michael, Tomy; Universitas 17 Agustus 1945 Surabaya
comparative; legal problems; social contract
<p>Agreements or familiarly known as contracts is the basis for various aspects of business activities. Contracts in the Indonesian Civil Code (ICC) are called agreements, which is one of the sources of engagement whose provisions are the subject of Book III concerning Contracts of ICC. The experts on contract law, diametrically have divided their views on the term ‘agreement’ with ‘contracts’. According to Peter Mahmud Marzuki as quoted by Agus Yudha Hernoko, he provided a critical view of the differences between these terms, namely: In the Anglo-American mindset, an agreement in Dutch is known as <em>overeenkomst </em>and in English it is known as an <em>agreement</em> which has a broader meaning than a <em>contract</em>, due to the fact that it includes matters relating to business or non-business. Therefore, Agreements related to business are called contracts, while those that are not related to business are only called agreements. Based on the results of the comparative study, it is known that the contract law arrangements in the ICC are not as complete and not as up-to-date as Singapore's contract law. This is because since the ICC was first promulgated in Indonesia, it has never been modernized. In order to minimize legal problems, both due to empty and vague norms, the results of the comparison of contract law can help construct additional arrangements both for a holistic-comprehensive study of contract law and for making business contracts that are required to be updated.</p>

The demand of passenger and freight transportation has been increasing tremendously each day due to the globalization process. Therefore, the acceleration in the transportation demand has a natural impact on the distances that the freights have been carried through in overall. In this prospect, international logistics provides an economic utility from the sustainability viewpoint in the global competition arena. World-wide supply and distribution channels have become so sophisticated, resulting in having vitality in the field therefore boosting its share in the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). High impact of liberalization in the air transportation markets has been affecting the market of Turkey as well as USA and EU. Moreover, it is one of the industries that have survived from the global financial crises which is also critical from the competition based strategies. In this study, the relation between the GDP and the air freight traffic of Turkey has been analyzed by using an econometric model. As a result, it has been found that there is a statistically significant relationship between those parameters.

<p><em>Despite the government of Tanzania's multiple measures to combat the coronavirus epidemic, there is still a lot of misery and human death that is recorded from time to time. The goal of this research was to determine the role of coordination, transportation, and information and communication technology in the performance of humanitarian operations during the coronavirus pandemic and to give recommendations for how to improve it. The data was collected via a questionnaire from a sample of six referral hospitals in Dar es Salaam and the Coastal Region using quantitative methodologies and an explanatory research methodology. Using descriptive data analysis, the mean and standard deviation of the findings were computed, and the data were then summarized using frequency distribution tables before being analyzed using a multiple regression model. All independent factors demonstrated a significant positive relationship with humanitarian relief performance, including coordination, transportation, and information communication technology (p0.05). For better humanitarian relief operation performance, the study recommended that referral hospitals management ensure that there are adequate facilities for distribution of relief requirements, the required materials/ facilities arrive on time and adequate ICT facilities for coordination of all stakeholders in the relief operation.</em></p>
