Abstract Artikel ini bertujuan untuk melihat keberkesanan penyusunan semula penduduk di Malaysia bermula pada tahun 1971. Penyusunan semula penduduk ini berlaku rentetan daripada Peristiwa 13 Mei yang menjadi titik hitam dalam sejarah Malaysia pada tahun 1969. Ia dikatakan titik hitam dalam sejarah Malaysia kerana berlakunya rusuhan kaum sehingga menyebabkan pertumpahan darah berlaku. Berdasarkan analisis tekstual yang telah dilakukan, ternyata penyusunan semula penduduk bukan sahaja berjaya mencapai perpaduan dan membangunkan satu bangsa, tetapi ia boleh dijadikan contoh terbaik untuk membasmi kemiskinan terutama kepada sesebuah negara yang berbilang kaum dalam tempoh masa yang singkat. Penyusunan semula penduduk telah membetulkan ketidakseimbangan sosio-ekonomi yang wujud di Malaysia antara kaum dan wilayah. Terdapat lima perkara telah digariskan untuk tujuan tersebut. Pertama, memodenkan kawasan luarbandar. Kedua, mengurangkan keadaan yang tidak seimbang dalam struktur guna tenaga. Ketiga, menambahkan lebih cepat pemilikan rakyat Malaysia dalam pemilikan modal dan stok syarikat. Keempat, Membentuk sebuah masyarakat perdagangan dan perindustrian dalam kalangan Melayu dan bumiputra. Kelima, memajukan negeri dan kawasan yang mundur. Berdasarkan kajian di Malaysia, negara tersebut hanya mengambil masa lebih kurang 40 tahun untuk mencapai 1.7% insiden kemiskinannya pada tahun 2012 sedangkan pada tahun 1970 insiden kemiskinannya adalah 49.3%.

Kata Kunci: Penyusunan semula penduduk, kemiskinan, Malaysia, perpaduan, berbilang kaum

The focus of this study is to examine islam and local wisdom in disaster management policy implementation in Jember, East Java. This study used a descriptive qualitative method. The result of this research is the implementation of a public policy disaster in Jember has not been optimal. disaster management is done in a state of emergency, reactive when a disaster occurs, and post-disaster alone, with very limited data and information, has not been done proactively to prevent and reduce the impact of disaster risk. There are two things that do some communities in Jember, that is: an attempt to improve disaster preparedness to the community and students by means of socialization, and local economic development to strengthen the capacity of society to face the threat of disaster. In the local community disaster management practice sometimes carried out with a combination of local wisdom with Islamic rituals. Local wisdom base to serve as a locus of innovation in community-based disaster management. This is done as an alternative strategy to encourage community participation in disaster management around him. Without the participation of the social community, will run sectoral disaster management.

Debt is a part of fiscal policy and also being a part of the overall economic management policy. When the state budget has deficit, the debt is viewed as a logical consequence to cover it. The Government of the Republic of Indonesia, both  in the New Order or the Reform Era, use the debt as an instrument of fiscal policy. During the New Order, the Government used a balanced budget and debt was an instrument to cover budget shortfalls. In the Reform Era, a balanced budget policy was changed to the budget deficit. However, in practice, there is no difference between the two budget policies because debt become the main instrument of financing. Inevitably, the debt is now viewed as a common policy to be done in the management of state budget. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to study the debt as an instrument of fiscal policy that is commonly used by the Government of the Republic of Indonesia in the Islamic political economy perspective. This paper has three main objectives. First, identify the debt posture of Indonesian government in the New Order and Reform Era. Second, analyzing whether the debt is really necessary. Third, study the view of Islamic political economic toward the use of debt as an instrument of fiscal policy in the management of the economy.


Keywords: state budget, debt, fiscal policy, Islamic political economy

When we say that political economy means a study of mankind in the ordinary business of life; it examines that part of individual and social action which is most closely connected with theattainment and with the use of the material requisites of wellbeing. A question may arise how we could approach it with a philosophical study? For the philosophy is how to justify your believe then we may ask what, how, and why political economy. The matter will be more complicated when we add to the study a religiosity of philosophy of political economy to Islamic teaching in which to some scholars it is not a philosophy but it is religion.The declared purpose of Islamic economics is to identify and establish an economic order that conforms to Islamic scripture and traditions. On the other side, the first task of the Islamic political system is to eliminate all forms of oppression within economic relationships and to lay the ground for the establishment of a just system of distribution of eco¬nomic resources. However, the source of the injustice is neither social settings nor the means of production, but rather human nature itself, the inner instincts of self love that drive man to secure survival for himself only. Such an instinct is essential for the survival of human life on earth. How could we philosophize these two disciplines by relating the both to Islam?This paper intends to focus on remarking the philosophy of Islamic political economy as an introduction to its huge implementation in the real life of human beings especially Muslims.

THE NEXUS OF SOCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY RELATIONS IN THE ISLAMIC POLITICAL ECONOMY CONCEPTION: HOW ABIM SCRUTINISES ITS POSITION?

Currently, the social accounting, accountability and engagement issues pertaining to the non-governmental organisations (NGO) has been widely debated by the academic scholars. From this rationale, the paper is proposed in focusing the nexus of the stakeholders’ engagement within the NGO social praxis. It is noticeable in the NGO setting that the volunteers are the “front liners”, who willing to engage in volunteering based on their moral and ethical values in assisting the people in needs. Thus, the social engagement and obligation within the Islamic position need to be explored on the commonness and mutual consensus between individual and another individual or the society that they engaged in. In line with this, the moral values and ethical conduct of an individual is essential in delineating the relationship of between man and Allah; man and another man; and lastly man and nature (through the conception of hablunminnallah, hablunminnas). The ontological position is founded from the Tawhidic position, which underpins the concept of Oneness of the God. The Islamic worldview emphasise the belief of the existence of the Creator, who creates the world, the mankind, animal and nature through the divine law. Parallel to this, the epistemological foundation follows the understanding of the scope of social accountability relations by reflecting the Quran, Sunnah and Ijma’ Qiyas as a underpinnings knowledge that may constructed the evidence of tolerance, moral and ethical values within Islamic setting. The paper inductively employed Mantiq Al-Qadim as a research method in contextualising the social accountability engagement within the Islamic Political Economy conception in the Islamic NGO setting. In order to provide an extensive and contextual deliberation of the research setting, the single-case-study of ABIM (Muslim Youth of Malaysia) was conducted in order to obtain in-depth insights on the social accountability context within the social praxis in the prioritised Islamic community. Together, the theoretical and empirical contributions of the paper provide an understanding of representation “closeness” of accountability relations which fall outside of the traditional corporate social disclosure framework. Within the ABIM, the articulation of social reporting is recognised as a mechanism for establishing new boundaries for the community within which the NGO operates. For the ABIM, this involves using accounting mechanisms to highlight the values of a well-defined Islamic community in any public policy debate and plural rationalities stances provided by the ABIM.

This paper explores the status of the institution of waqf and relevant laws concerning waqf in the Malay-Muslim majority areas, Narathiwat province, southern Thailand. There are some legal provisions in the Royal Act concerning Muslim mosque, 1947 which speaks about mosque property in general. However, this act does not really reflect the status of waqf property in Islamic law. Of course, other laws, for example, Thai Civil and Commercial Law Code 1934, the Royal Act concerning the Administration of Islamic organization, 1997, the Patronage of Islam Act of 1945, and Thai National Land Code, 1951 speak about the property and trust in general. The crucial issues as to whether those laws are complete to accommodate the waqf property for Muslims in those four provinces and other Muslims in the country. The study is deemed necessary to highlight some of the weaknesses which should be solved in order to improve and review the existing provisions and other related issues pertaining to waqf properties in those four provinces.

Dalam melaksanakan kajian berkaitan bidang ekonomi politik, antara cabarannya adalah untuk mengelakkan diri daripada terlibat dengan pertimbangan nilai (value judgment). Hal ini kerana, pertimbangan nilai dalam penyelidikan memberi kesan kepada pembentukan polisi sosial. Bertitik tolak daripada permasalahan ini, sarjana Jerman, Max Weber memperkenalkan suatu konsep dalam penyelidikan sains sosial yang dikenali sebagai konsep bebas nilai. Konsep ini dikemukakan hasil daripada perdebatan mengenai campur tangan matlamat politik dalam kajian-kajian yang menentukan polisi sosial di Jerman. Persoalannya, adakah konsep seperti ini mempunyai signifikan dalam kajian ekonomi politik Islam? Bagaimanakah pertimbangan nilai dapat diketepikan dalam melaksanakan kajian berkenaan ekonomi politik Islam? Oleh yang demikian, kertas kerja ini mempunyai tiga tujuan. Pertama, mengenal pasti latar belakang perdebatan konsep bebas nilai dalam kalangan sarjana Jerman. Kedua, meneliti asas-asas konsep tersebut. Ketiga, menganalisis konsep bebas nilai dari perspektif kajian ekonomi politik Islam. Dengan menggunakan kaedah analisis kandungan, kertas kerja ini menemukan dua dapatan penting. Pertama, konsep bebas nilai yang diperkenalkan oleh Max Weber ini mempunyai hubung kait dengan situasi Perang Dunia Pertama yang berlaku di Eropah. Kedua, terdapat dua asas bebas nilai yang perlu diambil kira untuk melakukan kajian ekonomi politik Islam iaitu perbezaan di antara fakta dengan penilaian peribadi, dan sifat kebenaran ilmu pengetahuan.

Behavioral economics is a field of study which uses theories and techniques based on traditional economics, psychology and other social sciences, to explain and interpret decisions made by individuals and organizations in the allocation of scarce resources. It seeks to increase the explanatory power of economics by providing it with more realistic psychological foundations. This paper reviews several studies which cover charitable giving and poverty alleviation, suggesting that effective policy design should take into account behavioral traits such as default bias, myopia and loss aversion.Potential implications and recommendations are discussed for the empowerment of zakāh.

Di Indonesia, salah satu isu dasar yang menjadi perhatian dan menjadi masalah publik adalah Peraturan Daerah (Perda) Syariah. Munculnya Perda Syariah di Indonesia adalah sebagai sebuah sikap atas seriusnya persoalan kriminalitas dan kerusakan moral di Indonesia. Namun demikian, pelaksanaan Perda Syariah di Indonesia, masih menjadi kontroversi. Ada kelompok masyarakat yang mendukung dan menolak. Sebagai bahagian dari Kebijakan Publik, Perda Syariah masih dipandang sebagai kepentingan politik para elit dan otoritasi kehendak lokalitas. Kepentingan elit/kelompok dianggap lebih berperanan ketimbang keperluan terhadap Perda Syariah itu sendiri. Di samping itu, ia menegaskan usaha untuk membangun identitas Islam melalui Perda Syariah. Salah satu wilayah di Indonesia yang mengeluarkan Perda Syariah untuk membangun identitas adalah kota Lhoksumawe, Aceh. Hasil penelitian kami menegaskan bahwa ada banyak alasan mengapa di kota Lhoksumawe perlu membangun  identitas dirinya melalui Perda Syariah. Bagaimanakah pembangunan identitas kota Lhoksumawe melalui Perd Syariah? Hal-hal apa sajakah yang dilaukan mereka untuk membangun identitas itu? Kertas Kerja ini secara penerokaan akan menjelaskan persoalan-persoalan tersebut.
