Abstract:
The local government centre is an area that accommodates various local government activities, both administrative activities and services that meet the needs of the community. In Indonesia, form of the area is usually an office complex of executive institutions which is led by the head of the local government along with the local government apparatus, and the local legislative assembly. Besides having office facilities, the area is equipped with various public service facilities, such as commercials; trade and services; as well as education and health facilities. As a result, the area is not only a local government centre but also centres of service and local development growth. At this time, the government centre of the Brebes Regency has been able to become an important growth centre for the regency. Unfortunately, the area is only able to support development growth of the northern region of the regency, but it has not been able to encourage equitable development throughout all of the regency area. This study aims to determine a new location for the government centre of Brebes Regency. In contrast to other relocating of the local government centre aiming to resolve existing problems of the centre, the relocating centre of the Brebes Regency aims to increase the equitable distribution of local development. Taking into account the criteria of geographical conditions; conformity with spatial planning; land availability; social, cultural, and historical conditions; politics and security; facilities and infrastructure; and accessibility, as well as using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method, the selected area is in the Bulakamba District, out of the 6 alternative districts assessed. This district has some advantages of its location in the middle region of the Brebes Regency, adequate spacious area, proper land ownership status and accessibility.

Full text
Abstract:
Creation administrative recente, la commune est instituee dans le but de casser le cadre tribal ancien. La greffe communale s'inscrit ainsi dans un double processus historique et social : un processus d'uniformisation d'une maniere d'etre, d'un nouveau type d'individu, en somme de la naissance du citoyen au sens moderne du terme, et un processus de destructuration-restructuration comme instrument permettant la realisation de la politique de developpement decidee par l'etat. Mais en tant qu'unite territoriale et acteur du developpement local, la commune ne fait pas totalement fi des frontieres ethniques ancestrales et menage meme le reseau notabiliaire traditionnel local. Elle marque ainsi une volonte politique de continuite et incite par la meme occasion a se poser la question sur la portee veritable de la decentralisation. Pour illustrer ces continuites ou et ces ruptures, ces evolutions et l'emergence d'un nouveau citoyen dans un monde rural qui "se detribalise", l'exemple de la region d'el hajeb est particulierement significatif par sa position geographique centrale au coeur du maroc, la presence de deux grandes confederations tribales (les beni m'tir et les guerrouane), la juxtaposition de differents terroirs (jbel, dir, azaghar), etc. .
The commune, which is a recent administrative creation, is instituted in order to destroy the ancient tribal organization. The communal transplantation is thus to be noticed in a double social and historical process : on the one hand, a process of unification of a way of live, a new kind of the individual, indeed the appearance of the citizen in the mpdern conception of the word. On the other hand, a process of "distructure"-"restructure" as a tool to achieve the policy of development decided by the state. However, as a territorial unity and an agent of local development, the commune doesn't thoroughly neglect ancestral ethnic borders and even pleases the local traditional group of notables. It thus emphasizes a political will of continuity and makes one wonder about the real effect of decentralization. To clarify these continuities or and these ruptures, these evolutions and the appearance of a new citizen in a rural world which "is going out" of its tribal system, the example of el hajeb area is particularly significant by its central geographic situation in the heart of morocco, the existence of twomain tribal confederations (the beni m'tirs and the guerrouanes), the juxtaposition of distinct soils (jbel, dir, azaghar), etc. .

Abstract:
When the Uniting Church formed in 1977, its Basis of Union envisaged a final reconciliation and renewal for all creation, not just humans. It did, nonetheless, reflect the anthropocentric assumptions of its day, as did other official documents released in the first decade of the Uniting Church’s life. Anthropocentrism assumes that human beings alone are created in the image of God, charged with dominion over Earth, and responsible for the fallenness of creation, though not necessarily through the actions of a literal Adam and Eve. This basic framework did not shift in the first decade, even though Earth began to be talked about not as an inanimate resource for human consumption, but something good and valuable in and of itself. In 1990 this anthropocentric paradigm began to be challenged, and during 2000-2002 two quite irreconcilable understandings of the relationship between God and Earth, and thus humans and other animals existed side by side in Uniting Church worship resources. Having listened carefully to the story of life as told by ecological and evolutionary scientists, I conclude that the traditional anthropocentric paradigm is no longer tenable. Instead I propose that all of life is the image of God, in its evolutionary past, ecological present and unknown future. All of life is in direct relationship with God, and exercises dominion of Earth. Evidence traditionally used as evidence of the fallenness of creation is instead affirmed as an essential part of life, though life on Earth has experienced a number of significant “falls” in biodiversity. Even the more biocentric thought in recent Uniting Church resources is inadequate, because its language implies that life is simple, static, benign, and to some extent designed by God. In order to be adequately consonant with the life sciences, theology must be able to accept that finitude (pain, suffering and death) is a good part of creation, for without it there could be no life. This is an emphasis of ecofeminism, which I extend to affirm not only individual death, but the extinction of whole species, including humans. I argue that the purpose of creation was not the evolution of humans, but to make possible God’s desire for richness of experience, primarily mediated through relationships. Whilst this idea is well established in process theology, it must be purged of its individualistic and consciousness-centric biases to be adequately consonant with the scientific story of life. The resulting biocentric paradigm has several implications for our understanding of Jesus. I argue that he offers salvation from the overwhelming fear of finitude, rather than finitude itself. Against the trend in ecotheology, I propose that this saving work is directed in the first instance to humans only. I tentatively propose that it is directed to only some humans. This, paradoxically, is more affirming of God’s relationship with the rest of creation than most ecotheology, which proclaims Jesus as a global or universal saviour. Salvation for some humans, and all non human creatures, happens only in a secondary sense, because this is the only sense in which they need saving. I then speculate on whether and how it might be possible for a Christian biocentric community to live out its salvation. Finally, I revisit the Basis of Union and argue that although the biocentric theology I have proposed goes well beyond the Basis, it is not at odds with the Basis’ directions and intentions. Biocentric theology is, rather, an extension of the trajectories already contained within the Basis, with its trust in the eventual reconciliation and renewal of all creation.

Full text
Abstract:
Dans le sillage des travaux déjà réalisés sur le rôle joué par les élites dans la construction de l'Etat moderne, ce travail examine l'intégration des noblesses d' Auvergne et du Bourbonnais au clientélisme royal de 1450 à 1650. Tout au long du XVe siècle, cet espace se caractérise à la fois par une importance stratégique décroissante aux yeux du pouvoir royal et par l'absence d'une maison princière capable, même au temps des Bourbon, d' organiser autour d' elle les réseaux de fidélité provinciaux. Cette absence de prince dominant est originale car elle y permet l' émergence d'une noblesse douée d'une forte autonomie qui légitime sa sociogenèse par le pouvoir local et non par le service de l'Etat. En s'appuyant sur quelques familles significatives, on peut voir comment le monarque s'appuie sur des groupes lignagers particuliers pour gagner à son profit la fidélité de la noblesse qui, en retour y gagne le gouvernement effectif du pouvoir provincial, tout en assurant sa domination seigneuriale. Ce processus lui permet d'installer sur place les premiers linéaments de l'administration royale sans passer par la médiation traditionnelle d'une noblesse seconde. Le choix d'une périodisation longue, de la Ligue du Bien Public à la Fronde sans arrêter l'étude à la rupture traditionnelle des guerres de Religion, permet d'éclairer les métamorphoses de la culture politique d'un groupe social de plus en plus méprisé par le roi, à mesure que l' Auvergne cesse d'être un enjeu dans la géographie po1itique du royaume.

Abstract:
Local authorities have experienced significant cuts in income whilst grappling with increased demand, an aging population and welfare reform. This pressing imperative has driven local authorities to challenge their sense of self and in doing so consider the participative role that customers can and do play. This study sought to examine practitioner perspectives of customers, their role, impact and constraining and enabling factors within the design and delivery of local government contact centre services. There is limited empirical research on practitioner perspectives of the role of customers within a local government environment. There are multiple terms used to describe the concept of customer but an absence of established approaches to examine the role that customers play within socially constructed phenomenon within local government demonstrating a gap in current academic thought. Whilst the rationale for involving customers in local governance is debated, the application of theory in to practice is limited thereby further constraining the opportunity for local authorities to leverage potential benefits afforded through participative approaches to the design and delivery of contact centre services. An interpretivist stance was adopted with qualitative techniques employed within the research. Using a priori codes developed through the review of extant literature, thematic analysis of forty-four customer service strategies spanning single tier, upper tier and metropolitan local authorities was undertaken. Themes were further developed through analysis of transcripts from seventeen semistructured interviews with managers responsible for the design and delivery of local government contact centre services. This research highlighted the differing and often contradictory practitioner perceptions of the concept of customer and the role that customers play in the design and delivery of local government services. Whilst organisations espoused a desire to progress participative principles due to the potential benefits afforded through such approaches, the extent to which these were operationalised by practitioners was limited and this coupled with a perceived sense of passivity on the part of customers resulted in little or no positive impact on current service performance. As extant literature and research is limited on the role of customers within local government, this study expands current academic thought providing particular insight on the practitioner perspective. The research findings provide a robust foundation on which theorists and practitioners in particular can formulate participative strategies and associated policies thereby providing meaningful opportunities for customers to co-design and co-deliver local government services and through which potential benefits, financial and non-financial, can be realised.

Abstract:
Doctor Legum - LLD
South Africa continues to experience one of the highest crime rates in the world. Crime is unevenly distributed, and the police are not trusted by the majority of citizens. The power and responsibility for policing lies with the national government, through South Africa’s negotiated constitutional framework. Only a limited form of policing under local government, severely constrained by onerous requirements, is permitted in the legislative framework. Such centralisation of policing in federal states is theorised to be necessary to avoid partisan policing and armed separatism; to prevent local capture of police by local politicians; to ensure uniformity, equity and democratic change, and to ensure equitable outcomes; and to bring efficiencies of scale to policing.

Abstract:
This paper aims to understand the customer satisfaction between Mainland shoppers and Local Shoppers regarding the shopping centre in HK. It will be reviewed and analyzed based on shopping centre management theories. Apart from finding out the shopping behavior of mainland shoppers and Hong Kong shoppers, we would like to understand their customer satisfaction on different customer services aspects. Data was collected through questionnaire. Survey of two shopping centres were carried out to understand the customer satisfaction. In-depth study on the customer satisfaction between Mainlanders and Hong Kong people is then carried out. It was found that Mainland shoppers and local shoppers have different expectation in different customer services aspects. For example, Mainlander thinks that prices of the products in both shopping centre - Harbour City and Landmark North is reasonable. However, local shoppers think that the product in Landmark North is expensive. Also, the Mainland shoppers think that both the shopping centre provide a wide range of product for them. However, Hong Kong people expects the variety of product are not enough in both the shopping centre. On the other hand, they both appreciate the high customer service performance in Hong Kong. In conclusion, Hong Kong and Mainlander appreciate a wider range of shops in term of price, product category and exhibition. Shopping centre managers should provide a comfortable environment which could enhance the shopping experience of the customer.

Abstract:
Le but de cette étude est de mieux comprendre l'intervention professionnelle en CLSC. Elle s'inscrit dans le courant de la recherche professionnelle et revêt un caractère théorique: celui de l'analyse des pratiques. La réalité de la pratique de première ligne transcende la discipline à laquelle appartiennent les intervenants. C'est pourquoi un praticien a avantage à développer un modèle d'intervention personnalisé et en partenariat avec les acteurs du milieu institutionnel et communautaire s'il veut offrir un service de qualité adapté aux besoins du client. Divers ordres de problèmes de pratique récurrents ont suscité l'émergence de ce projet de recherche sur l'intervention en CLSC. Une quinzaine d'années de travail dans les organismes régionaux et à la direction générale d'un établissement public de première ligne nous a permis de percevoir des problèmes récurrents: (1) l'intervention en CLSC est une pratique qui s'ignore; (2) il y a absence d'un métamodèle d'intervention en CLSC; (3) le champ d'action du CLSC tend à s'élargir et à se complexifier; (4) le professionnel est aux prises avec deux logiques contradictoires: la logique de la professionnalisation et la logique de la collaboration; un besoin de cohérence est fortement ressenti. Ces problèmes ont conduit à la formulation de la question de recherche: Quels sont les éléments communs des savoirs pratiqués pouvant constituer un métamodèle d'intervention de première ligne en CLSC? Cette recherche donne la parole aux professionnels afin (1) d'expliciter les savoirs pratiqués par des intervenants de première ligne en CLSC; (2) d'identifier les éléments communs de ces savoirs pratiqués; (3) d'articuler ces éléments sous la forme d'un métamodèle d'intervention de première ligne en CLSC. Elle vise la conceptualisation, la production et la diffusion des connaissances issues du savoir pratiqué. Pour réaliser cette recherche, nous avons privilégié une approche praxéologique qui rejoint les intérêts d'un nombre grandissant de chercheurs. Pour ce faire, nous avons eu recours à la réflexivité qui a fait l'objet de nombreuses études tant sur la formation des futurs enseignants que des professeurs en exercice et en sciences infirmières. Elle n'a cependant pas été exploitée jusqu'à ce jour dans le secteur de la première ligne en milieu sociosanitaire. Nous avons fait l'hypothèse que l'identification du savoir issu de l'expérience des professionnels s'avère utile pour l'analyse, la compréhension et l'adaptation de l'intervention de première ligne en CLSC. Elle donne accès au savoir caché dans l'agir professionnel, savoir qui ne se trouve pas dans les livres.

Abstract:
Abstract Enterprise Development Centres (EDCs) have emerged as a best practice in building local content and capacity and driving economic development in emerging economies. In 2017, prior to Final Investment Decision (FID) of any oil field, ExxonMobil Guyana launched the Centre for Local Business Development (The Centre) in Guyana, managed by DAI Global. This early investment was key to show ExxonMobil's commitment to optimizing local content. The Centre's early mission was to build local competitiveness and support Guyanese businesses in accessing opportunities in the emerging oil & gas sector through capacity building, training, awareness and education. This paper looks at lessons learned five years into the operation of the Guyana Centre for Local Business Development. The objective is to help identify learnings that can be shared with other similar institutions and economic development programs to support implementation of successful strategies especially in relation to supply chain development. This paper focuses on the evolving mission of the Centre from training towards more mentorship of the local supply chain and the process of this evolution and lessons learned along the way. Further, the paper will use empirical findings over the last five years to show the importance of early investments in the supply chain and how this helps to support a growing and evolving economy.

Abstract:
A cidade de São Luís do Maranhão viu o seu Centro Histórico, fundado no século XVII e local de intervenções urbanas e arquitetônicas inspiradas na Lisboa Pombalina (século XVIII), ser elevado à categoria de Património Cultural da Humanidade, em 1997. O conjunto reflete, ainda hoje, as morfologias urbanas e as características arquitetônicas desse tempo. Apesar do reconhecimento do seu valor patrimonial e dos esforços públicos e privados desenvolvidos, o Cento Histórico encontra-se desvalorizado, com evidente desvitalização social e econômica. A cidade continua a crescer, mas o centro mantém-se parado no tempo, assumindo uma posição periférica relativamente às novas áreas de expansão. O artigo procura analisar a organização espacial do Centro Histórico e promover, apoiado na investigação sobre o modo como este centro se articula com a envolvente, uma dinâmica funcional e social do espaço urbano que proporcione a volta ao uso quotidiano da área analisada. The Historical Centre of the city of São Luís do Maranhão, which has been founded in the XVII century and subject to urban and architectural interventions following those performed in Lisboa Pombalina (XVIII century), was raised to the category of Cultural Heritage of Mankind, in 1997. Still toda y, the whole reflects the urban morphologies and the architectural features of that period. In spite of the recognition of its patrimonial value and the public and private efforts developed, the Historical Centre is devalued, with a clear social and econom ic decline. The city continues to grow, but the centre remains still in time, assuming an outlying position in relation to the new expansion areas. The article tries to analyze the spatial organization of the Historical Centre and to promote, supported by the research about the way this centre is connected with the surrounding environment, a functional and social dynamics of the urban space that makes possible the return to the daily utilization of the are a under analysis.

Abstract:
The public prefers to express their opinions on the development of the surrounding area, make assessments and comments, as well as participate in surveys. However, the involvement of the public itself in improving the immediate surroundings and in solving the problems of its fellows is not always sufficient. The research aims to determine whether there are differences in public involvement in addressing municipal problems across various population groups within a municipality. The paper presents the results of an extensive survey. The research considered problems within one municipality in Latvia – Jelgava municipality – and analysed the rural territories located in the immediate vicinity of the centre of the municipality as well as those being the furthest from the centre. The results of the research revealed that young people were most satisfied with their lives in their municipality if their places of residence were closer to the centre of the municipality. The ability to influence the decisions of one’s own local government was highly valued by residents in the age group from 26 to 44 years in the rural territories that were in the immediate vicinity of the centre the municipality, yet this possibility was most often rated as weak among the youth living in the most remote rural territories from the centre of the municipality. Population involvement in solving a problem relevant to the society was the most frequently used way when the population requested a municipal employee to solve this problem. A large segment of the society in rural areas admitted that they did nothing, and this passivity was also evident in the group of young people who lived further away from the centre of the municipality. The involvement of the population in national-level public activities across all age groups and territories was quite equal, as the active population were involved in Saeima elections, campaigns for collecting signatures and donating various thing

Abstract:
Ce rapport s’intéresse d’abord aux causes et défis qui permettent d’expliquer la marginalisation des acteurs locaux en faisant notamment remonter leurs perceptions. Une deuxième partie met en valeur les bonnes pratiques existantes et proposer des actions concrètes pour renforcer la place des acteurs locaux et éventuellement le leadership humanitaire local (LHL) dans la réponse au Burkina Faso. Cette étude permet la proposition de pistes pour une réponse dirigée par les acteurs humanitaires locaux et qui soit plus adaptée aux besoins, plus rapide, plus durable, plus appropriée, et qui réponde enfin au changement de réalité imposé par l’augmentation des violences, tout en maintenant les populations au centre de la réponse. This report looks at the marginalization faced by local actors in the humanitarian response in Burkina Faso. It examines the causes and challenges of their experience, in particular by foregrounding their perceptions. The report highlights existing good practice and proposes specific actions to strengthen the role of local actors and potentially local humanitarian leadership in the response. The study suggests ways of developing a response led by local humanitarian actors that better meets needs and is faster, more sustainable, more relevant and, finally, more responsive to the changing reality dictated by increased violence, while keeping people at the centre.

Abstract:
The development of unconventional hydrocarbon resources in the Norman Wells region of the Central Mackenzie Valley, Northwest Territories, has been explored by the energy industry. In early 2014, Conoco-Philips Canada conducted two multi-stage test operations of hydraulic fracturing (HF) in the region. In this study, we combine seismic data from the Canadian National Seismograph Network, four new stations established by the Northwest Territories Geoscience Office in collaboration with Natural Resources Canada in the Norman Wells region, and a local dense array installed by Conoco-Philips Canada to study the seismicity distribution during the pre-HF, HF and post-HF periods. We have identified and located 130 earthquakes within 100 km of the geographic centre of the local seismic network near Norman Wells for the pre-HF period (11 September 2013 - 7 February 2014). In comparison, 231 events are located during the HF period (8 February 2014 - 10 March 2014), and for the two post-HF periods, 11 March 2014 - 31 July 2014 and 27 February 2015 - 31 December 2015, we have catalogued 255 and 138 events, respectively. Source parameters and detailed phase pickings of each earthquake are given in the Appendices.

Full text
Abstract:
Under the new Fiscal Framework and devolution of some tax powers, from April 2019, the Welsh Government and local authorities will control nearly £5 billion of tax revenues, equivalent to roughly 30 per cent of their combined current spending. In this report we have worked with the Wales Governance Centre at Cardiff University to examine the key characteristics of the Welsh tax base, the risks and opportunities to the Welsh tax base after fiscal devolution, and some of the implications for Welsh Government policy. It concludes that tax policy reform should be pursued in an integrated way, with all devolved and local taxes considered in the round. It also highlights that given the influence that wider policy areas like education and housing have on the economy, there are cross-departmental challenges for the Welsh Government to ensure it successfully manages the increased risk inherent to fiscal devolution.

Abstract:
Coffs Harbour on the north coast of NSW is a highway city sandwiched between the Great Dividing Range and the Pacific Ocean. For thousands of years it was the traditional land of the numerous Gumbaynggirr peoples. Tourism now appears to be the major industry, supplanting agriculture and timber getting, while a large service sector has grown up around a sizable retirement community. It is major holiday destination. Located further away from the coast in the midst of a dairy farming community, Bellingen has become a centre of alternative culture which relies heavily on a variety of festivals activated by energetic tree changers and numerous professionals who have relocated from Sydney. Both communities rely on the visitor economy and there have been considerable changes to how local government in this region approach strategic planning for arts and culture. The newly built Coffs Harbour Education Campus (CHEC) is an experiment in encouraging cross pollination between innovative businesses and education and incorporates TAFE NSW, Coffs Harbour Senior College and Southern Cross University as well as the Coffs Harbour Technology Park and Coffs Harbour Innovation Centre all on one site. The 250 seat Jetty Memorial Theatre is the main theatre in Coffs Harbour for local and touring productions while local halls and converted theatres are the mainstay of smaller communities in the region. As peak body Arts Mid North Coast reports, there is a good record of successful arts related events which range across all genres of music, art, sculpture, Aboriginal culture, street art, literature and even busking and opera. These are mainly managed by passionate local volunteers.

Full text
Abstract:
Cash and voucher assistance (CVA) puts people at the centre of responses and enables Oxfam and other humanitarian actors to think differently and deliver better. CVA is now widely accepted by the humanitarian community as a tool to deliver greater choice, flexibility, and empowerment to those affected by crisis, while strengthening local markets and systems. This document provides Oxfam, partners, and other teams exploring CVA modalities, with a structured overview and standard operating procedures (SOPs) for the design and delivery of CVA. The guidance updates the previous Oxfam Cash and Markets SOPs (2013) and covers key considerations and topics, direction on roles and responsibilities, and steps to be taken to ensure accountable, timely, and quality CVA throughout the project cycle.

Abstract:
TMG’s Urban Food Futures programme closes its scoping phase with a series of reports summarising the main insights lying the foundation for the next phase of action research. This working paper, written in collaboration with partners African Centre for Cities (ACC), FACT and Muungano AMT, argues that for the progressive realization of the right to food in urban settings, food sensitive planning and urban design must be integrated into urban governance actions. Findings from Ouagadougou, Nairobi, and Cape Town indicate the necessary steps that need to be taken toward more food-sensitive planning: clearly defining the mandate to govern urban food systems by national and local governments; drawing from community knowledge and experience for strategic thinking around food systems, and politicising urban food system issues to create the momentum needed in holding relevant authorities accountable.

Abstract:
Description Ballarat sits on Wathaurong land and is located at the crossroads of four main Victorian highways. A number of State agencies are located here to support and build entrepreneurial activity in the region. The Ballarat Technology Park, located some way out of the heart of the city at the Mount Helen campus of Federation University, is an attempt to expand and diversify the technology and innovation sector in the region. This university also has a high profile presence in the city occupying part of a historically endowed precinct in the city centre. Because of the wise preservation and maintenance of its heritage listed buildings by the local council, Ballarat has been used as the location for a significant set of feature films, documentaries and television series bringing work to local crews and suppliers. With numerous festivals playing to the cities strengths many creative embeddeds and performing artists take advantage of employment in facilities such as the Museum of Australian Democracy at Eureka. The city has its share of start-ups, as well as advertising, design and architectural firms. The city is noted for its museums, its many theatres and art galleries. All major national networks service the TV and radio sector here while community radio is strong and growing.
