Abstract Eero, M. 2012. Reconstructing the population dynamics of sprat (Sprattus sprattus balticus) in the Baltic Sea in the 20th century. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 69: 1010–1018 . Long time-series of population dynamics are increasingly needed in order to understand human impacts on marine ecosystems and support their sustainable management. In this study, the estimates of sprat (Sprattus sprattus balticus) biomass in the Baltic Sea were extended back from the beginning of ICES stock assessments in 1974 to the early 1900s. The analyses identified peaks in sprat spawner biomass in the beginning of the 1930s, 1960s, and 1970s at ∼900 kt. Only a half of that biomass was estimated for the late 1930s, for the period from the late 1940s to the mid-1950s, and for the mid-1960s. For the 1900s, fisheries landings suggest a relatively high biomass, similar to the early 1930s. The exploitation rate of sprat was low until the development of pelagic fisheries in the 1960s. Spatially resolved analyses from the 1960s onwards demonstrate changes in the distribution of sprat biomass over time. The average body weight of sprat by age in the 1950s to 1970s was higher than at present, but lower than during the 1980s to 1990s. The results of this study facilitate new analyses of the effects of climate, predation, and anthropogenic drivers on sprat, and contribute to setting long-term management strategies for the Baltic Sea.

Abstract:
AbstractRecords of discharge of rivers draining Alpine basins with between 0 and ~70% ice cover, in the upper Aare and Rhône catchments, Switzerland, for the period 1894–2006 have been examined together with climatic data for 1866–2006, with a view to assessing the effects on runoff from glacierized basins of climatic warming coupled with glacier recession following the Little Ice Age maximum. Annual runoff from ice-free basins reflects precipitation variations, rising from minima between 1880 and 1910 to maxima between the late 1960s and early 1980s. The more highly glacierized the basin, the more runoff mimicked mean May–September air temperature during two periods of warming. Runoff increased gradually from the 1900s, rapidly in the 1940s, before decreasing to the late 1970s. Rising runoff levels during the second warming period failed to exceed those attained during the first, despite higher summer temperatures. Although temperatures continued to rise, discharge from glacierized basins declined after reaching maxima in the late 1980s to early 1990s. In the first warming period, rising specific melt rates augmented by increasing precipitation opposed the impact of declining glacier area on runoff. Although melt continued to increase in the second period, enhanced melting (even in the exceptionally warm summer of 2003) appears to have been insufficient to offset reducing glacier surface area exposed to melt, low or reducing levels of precipitation, and increasing evaporation. Thus runoff from glacierized basins peaked in the late 1940s to early 1950s.

The similarity in water environment variation course and economic development of the Taihu Lake riverbasin and Japan is analyzed and harnessing countermeasures are introduced. The close relation between economic development and water environment is analyzed. It is suggested that coordinated development policy of “Population-Resources-Environment-Economy” should be adopted. The research results demonstrate that water quality variation trend of the Taihu Lake riverbasin in the period of 1980s-the late 1990s was very similar the that of Japan in the period of 1960s-1980s, the rapid economic development of the Taihu Lake Riverbasin in the 1980s-1990s was similar to that of Japan rapid economic development period of 1960s.-1970s, the economic development level and water environment state of Japan in 1970 was very similar to that of the Taihu Lake Riverbasin in 1998,the economic development and water environment variation of the Taihu Lake riverbasin lags behind 20 plus years than that of Japan. We can infer the present and future situation of the Taihu Lake according to the history and present social-economic and water environment development situation of Japan.

Abstract:
AbstractThe present paper discusses the interplay between the Soviet state policy towards indigenous languages of "Northern Minorities" and the attitudes of the indigenous communities to their languages and to language endangerment. The author uses statistics on the Soviet state program of publishing books (primarily school books) in indigenous languages that was launched in the late 1920s and underwent considerable changes in the course of the decades to follow. It is argued that the publishing policy for all languages of indigenous minorities of the Far North followed the same consistent pattern that included several phases: "a glorious beginning" in the 1930s interrupted by the war, then a strong continuation in the 1950s, then a drop in the 1960-70s, and a resurrection in the 1980s, interrupted by the economic crisis of the early 1990s. The most interesting and the least clear period is the two and a half decades between mid-1950s and late 1970s where changes of the state policy may be connected with changes in community attitudes towards their native languages. A successful policy of language preservation and revitalization is possible only if it is supported simultaneously by the state and the indigenous community.

Abstract PURPOSE: Pediatric low-grade glioma therapy has evolved to delay or eliminate radiation. The impact of therapy changes on long-term outcomes remains unknown. METHODS: Cumulative incidence of late mortality (death >5 years from diagnosis), subsequent neoplasms (SNs), and chronic health conditions (CHCs, CTCAE grading criteria) were evaluated in the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study among 5-year survivors of glioma diagnosed 1970-1999. Outcomes were evaluated by diagnosis decade and by treatment exposures received ≤5 years following diagnosis (surgery-only, chemotherapy ± surgery, and cranial radiation ± surgery or chemotherapy). Relative risk (RRs) with 95%CIs estimated long-term outcomes using multivariable piecewise exponential models. RESULTS: Among 2,684 eligible survivors (age at diagnosis (median [range]), 7 years [0-20 years]; time from diagnosis, 24 years [5-48 years]), exposure to cranial radiation decreased [51% (1970s), 45% (1980s), 25% (1990s)] along with late tumor recurrence (>5 & ≤15 years from diagnosis) [9.8% (1970s), 8.8% (1980s), 5.0% (1990s)]. The 15-year cumulative incidence of late mortality was 10.3% (1970s), 6.5% (1980s), and 6.0% (1990s) (p<0.001, comparison of cumulative incidence curves). The 15-year cumulative incidence of grade 3-5 CHCs was 19.7% (1970s), 17.8% (1980s), and 14.2% (1990s) (p<0.0001). A reduction in SN incidence was not observed. In multivariable analyses excluding treatment exposure, later diagnosis (1990s vs. 1970s) was associated with lower risk of late mortality, grade 3-5 CHCs and SNs. Inclusion of treatment exposure in the model attenuated the effect of diagnosis decade. Radiation or chemotherapy exposure increased risk compared to surgery alone for late mortality (radiation RR 4.95, 95%CI 3.79-6.47; chemotherapy RR 2.88, 95%CI 1.85-4.48), CHCs (radiation RR 4.02, 95%CI 3.28-4.94; chemotherapy RR 1.66, 95%CI 1.13-2.45), and SNs (radiation RR 4.02, 95%CI 3.06-6.13, chemotherapy RR 2.08, 95%CI 1.03-4.23)). CONCLUSION: Late mortality and CHCs decreased in childhood glioma survivors diagnosed from 1970-1999 largely due to therapy changes, particularly avoidance of cranial radiation, without increased late recurrence.

Abstract:
AbstractCHD affects millions of patients worldwide. Interventional therapies for CHD goes back to the mid-1960s when Bill Rashkind performed balloon atrial septostomy on a cyanotic baby with transposition of the great vessels. This was followed by development of balloon catheters to perform balloon valvuloplasties and angioplasties in the early to late 1980s. Although King and Mills performed the first transcatheter closure of secundum atrial septal defect in the mid-1970s, this procedure was better realised in the mid-1990s. More intracardiac defect closures were performed in the late 1990s and early 2000. This brings us to the current era of percutaneous valve implantation as developed by Bonhoeffer. In this paper, we will discuss the past, present, and future of interventional cardiac catheterisation for CHD patients.

Abstract:
We analyzed the temporal trends and significant changes in apparent energy and macronutrient intakes in the Bangladeshi diet from 1961 to 2017. Due to the lack of a long-running national dietary intake dataset, this study used the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)’s old and new food balance sheet dataset. We used the joinpoint regression model and jump model to analyze the temporal trends in apparent energy and macronutrient intakes. The annual percentage change (APC) was computed for each segment of the trends. Bangladesh has experienced a late energy revolution in their dietary history. During the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, Bangladesh was suffering from substantive calorie deficits, where in apparent energy intake was less than 2200 kcal/day/person. Since the late 1990s, Bangladesh has made significant progress in raising the apparent energy consumption in the diet. Since the late 1970s, apparent fat intake started to increase significantly at a marked rate (APC = 2.16), whereas since the early 1990s, protein intake increased significantly by 1.33% per year. Plant sources have mostly governed the protein and fat intake trends in the Bangladeshi diet since 1960, whereas animal sources began to contribute significantly in protein intake since 1990 (APC = 3.43) and in fat intake since 2000 (APC = 2.88). Bangladesh overcame the substantive calorie deficit condition in the diet from the late 1990s. Excessive carbohydrate intake along with imbalanced and low-quality protein and fat intakes have been the central features in the diet in Bangladesh.

Abstract:
This paper demonstrates that the key determinants of policy success have been policymakers' views about how the economy works and what monetary policy can accomplish. In the first major section of the paper, the authors analyze the narrative record of the Federal Reserve to discover what policymakers believed and why they chose the policies they did. The authors find that the well-tempered monetary policies of the 1950s and of the 1980s and 1990s stemmed from a conviction that inflation has high costs and few benefits, together with realistic views about the sustainable level of unemployment and the determinants of inflation. In contrast, the profligate policies of the late 1960s and 1970s stemmed initially from a belief in a permanent tradeoff between inflation and unemployment, and later from a natural rate framework with a highly optimistic estimate of the natural rate of unemployment and a highly pessimistic estimate of the sensitivity of inflation to economic slack. And the deflationary policies of the late 1930s stemmed from a belief that the economy could overheat at low levels of capacity utilization and that monetary ease could do little to stimulate a depressed economy.

Abstract:
10007 Background: Therapy for pediatric low-grade glioma has evolved to delay or eliminate the need for cranial radiation. The impact of this change in approach on long-term outcomes remains unknown. Methods: Cumulative incidence of late mortality (death ≥5 years from diagnosis), subsequent neoplasms (SNs), and chronic health conditions (CHCs, graded using CTCAE criteria) were evaluated in the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study among 5-year survivors of glioma diagnosed between 1970 and 1999. Outcomes were evaluated by diagnosis decade (1970s, 1980s, 1990s) and by treatment exposure in the first five years from diagnosis [surgery only, chemotherapy (with or without surgery), and cranial radiation (with or without surgery or chemotherapy)]. Relative Risk (RRs) with 95% CIs estimated long-term outcomes using multivariable piecewise exponential models. Results: Among 2,684 eligible survivors (median age at diagnosis, 7 years [range, 0 to 20 years]; median time from diagnosis, 24 years [range, 5 to 48 years]), the proportion exposed to cranial radiation decreased from 51% (1970s) to 45% (1980s) and 25% (1990s) while the rate of recurrence within > 5 years but ≤15 years of diagnosis decreased from 9.8% (1970s) to 8.8% (1980s) and 5.0% (1990s). The 15-year cumulative incidence rate of all-cause late mortality was 10.3% (1970s), 6.5% (1980s), and 6.0% (1990s) (p < 0.001, comparison of cumulative incidence curves). The 15-year cumulative incidence rates of severe, disabling or life-threatening (grade 3-5) CHCs also decreased between 1970 and 1999: 19.7% (1970s), 17.8% (1980s), and 14.2% (1990s) (p < 0.0001). Lower rates of SN were not observed. In a multivariable analysis adjusted for age at diagnosis, attained age, race, sex and diagnosis decade, later diagnosis (1990s vs. 1970s) was associated with lower risk of late mortality (RR 0.86, 95% CI 0.74-0.99), grade 3-5 CHCs (RR 0.65, 95% CI 0.51-0.82) and SN (RR 0.64, 95% CI 0.44-0.94). In addition, when treatment exposure was added to the multivariable model, the effect of diagnosis decade was attenuated and no longer significant. Exposure to radiation or chemotherapy both increased risk compared to surgery alone: all-cause mortality (radiation RR 4.95, 95% CI 3.79-6.47; chemotherapy RR 2.88, 95% CI 1.85-4.48), grade 3-5 CHCs (radiation RR 4.02, 95% CI 3.28-4.94; chemotherapy RR 1.66, 95% CI 1.13-2.45), SNs (radiation RR 4.02, 95% CI 3.06-6.13, chemotherapy RR 2.08, 95% CI 1.03-4.23)). The effect of delayed radiation (> 1year to ≤5 years from diagnosis) on all-cause late mortality, grade 3-5 CHCs, or SNs was not different compared to radiation within one year of diagnosis. Conclusions: Late mortality and CHCs decreased in childhood glioma survivors diagnosed from 1970-1999 largely due to therapy changes, particularly avoidance of cranial radiation, without increased late recurrence.

Abstract:
We use several national surveys to provide a 50-year perspective on time spent on homework. The great majority of American children at all grade levels now spend less than one hour studying on a typical day—an amount that has not changed substantially in at least 20 years. Moreover, high school students in the late 1940s and early 1950s studied no more than their counterparts did in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. Changes in educational opinion on homework over the last half century have had little effect on student behavior, with only two notable exceptions: a temporary increase in homework time in the decade following Sputnik, and a new willingness in the last two decades to assign small amounts to primary-grade students.

Abstract:
At the end of the Second Millennium, the creative talent of British fashion designer 'stars' was considered so outstanding that they were frequently poached by leading European fashion houses; Dior, Givenchy, and Chloe, bastions of the French couture establishment were all headed by British designers. However, according to Kurt Salmon Associates (1991), there existed a paradox in that the British fashion designer sector was a 'cottage industry' characterised by poor commercial performance. Preliminary investigation revealed very little theory or scholarly research about the sector or its designer 'stars', and whilst there were some commercial consultancy reports, these appeared to be methodologically flawed. A need was therefore identified to explore contemporary practice in designer fashion houses, visit major promotional events such as fashion shows and exhibitions, and explore the designer's perspective. The methodological approach developed in this thesis has subsequently been endorsed by the Getty Conservation Institute of California (1999), which recommended the simultaneous analysis of 'creative' and cultural industries in terms of both their artistic and market dimensions, to explore positive associations between the two. This study applied a multi-stranded research strategy, which subscribed to phenomenological assumptions and adopted a range of research techniques from the traditions of anthropological fieldwork. These included an exploratory survey, participant observation, observation, in-depth elite interviews, and document analysis. It also draws upon developments in interpretative anthropology and includes experiments with the construction and presentation of text. These include the juxtaposition of commercial and art history discourses, numeric data with narrative, and popular with scholarly texts. This is sought to invite the reader to enter into a negotiation of new meaning, incorporating previously disparate discourses about designer fashion phenomena. The conclusions of this research were that the term 'cottage industry' was not an appropriate descriptor for the British fashion designer sector in the late 1990s .The industry had attained a positive international profile and London Fashion Week was a major international media event. However, the sector could be better supported as a national asset, in particular by establishing a permanent national exhibition in London to promote British fashion in a sustained and coherent manner.

Abstract:
The underlying theme of this dissertation is to focus on analysing complex and incremental change by applying the concept of regime change. Only when we undertake an analysis, which focuses on changes within a specific political-economic setting, will we be able to assess the extent and dynamic of political-economic change that occurred over a specific period of time. Regime as applied in this dissertation refers to a middle level of cohesion in the political economy of a nation state. It therefore differs from its common usage in linking a regime to a specific government or the state; as such this thesis also contributes towards generating additional awareness in distinguishing between the state, the government and a regime. It is further argued that the concept of regime change is both specific and flexible enough to cover a diverse range of case studies. To test the application of the theoretical framework two distinctive case studies, China and Japan, were selected. The concept or regime change also informs our understanding of the complexity and particularity of specific cases and the processes of complex change they experienced, like in the cases of China and Japan.

Abstract:
This thesis discusses the changes and corresponding causes of the wage distribution in China from the late 1990s to the 2000s. According to various data sources, real wage inequality in China has been increasing over time. People have become increasingly concerned about such a phenomenon, which can potentially cause economic instability and further social unrest. From the analysis of household survey data, a significant part of the the increase in wage dispersion in China can be attributed to changes in the institutional changes. Having gone through the institutional reform of state-owned enterprises in the late 1990s, many Chinese firms have become more privatized and smaller in size. That is to say, the Chinese labour market becomes less affected by the government intervention (through public enterprises). Changes in the supply side of the labour market have also been examined. The increase in the number of university graduates slows down the growing wage dispersion. A comparison between the household survey data and the industrial enterprises data tells a slightly different story about Chinas wage structure. As the firm-level data omits within-firm wage inequalities and excludes data of primary sectors, the service sectors, and the small businesses, a decrease in the logarithm of the wage variation has been found. The inconsistency between the changes of real wage dispersion and the dispersion of log wages has been discussed in depth in the thesis. Nonetheless, since China set the new minimum wage in 2004, the wage distribution in the countrys industrial sector has been reshaped, which is not obviously shown in the household data. The impact of increasing the national minimum wage has been evaluated under a set of relatively conservative assumptions. Further analysis has been conducted to quantify the effect of trade liberalization on wage dispersion. It turns out that starting to export on the part of the firms has a significant positive effect on firm-level wages and employments, but the impact of an increasing export exposure remains debatable.

Full text
Abstract:
Enpirical case study analysis of shop steward organisation within three specific manufacturing plants in Merseyside has been conducted with the aim of contributing to an understanding of the dynamics of steward organisation, activity and consciousness within British manufacturing industry more generally. This involves not merely a snap-shot of contemporary developments but an historical overview of the past 20 years that will be of relevance to an understanding of potential future trends. Methods of data collection include extensive interviews - with shop stewards, union members, managers and full-time union officials - analysis of documentary evidence and personal observation. The research is informed by a Marxist analytical framework, namely that there is a contradiction in the nature of workplace trade unionism - between conflict and acconinodation in stewards' relationship to management, between democracy and bureaucracy in stewards' relationship to rank and file members and between independence and dependence in stewards' relationship to full-time union officials. Because the balance struck between these interrelated and overlapping tendencies varies, depending on the level of workers' confidence, activity and militancy vis-a-vis management, an evaluation is made of the different 'micro-level' factors which affect the balance of bargaining power in each workplace and of the way these are located within the much broader 'macrolevel' social, economic and political context of the changing balance of class forces in society, with a contrast being drawn between the broad upturn in workers' struggles during the 1970s and the downturn of the 1980g . A central concern is a critique of Eric Batstone's 'strong bargaining relations' model of pragmatic shop steward organisation, which, as the case studies illustrate, merely serves to reinforce the limitations and compromises of workplace trade unionism within capitalist society. The distinctive potential role of revolutionary socialist organisatlon and leadership is posed as a vital missing element.

Full text
Abstract:
The Port Hope Area Initiative involves a process that will lead to the cleanup of low-level radioactive wastes in two communities in Southern Ontario and the construction of three new long-term waste management facilities in those communities. The history of the Initiative provides important insights into local participation and the successes and failures of siting efforts. The wastes resulted from the operations of an industrial process in Port Hope that began in the 1930s. Initially, wastes (contaminated with radium, uranium, and arsenic) from radium processing were deposited in a relatively uncontrolled manner at various locations within the town. By the 1940s, uranium processing wastes were deposited at nearby purpose-built radioactive waste management facilities. The problem of contamination was first recognized in 1974 and the worst cases quickly cleaned up. However, large volumes of contamination remained in the community. There were three successive efforts to develop an approach to deal with the area’s contamination. In the early to mid 1980s, a standard approach was employed; i.e. indentifying the most technically appropriate local site for a disposal facility, proceeding to evaluate that site, and communicating the benefits of the chosen approach to the local community. That approach was resoundingly rejected by local citizens and government representatives. The second effort, an innovative and consultative voluntary siting effort carried out during the late-1980s and early to mid-1990s involved the solicitation of other municipalities to volunteer to host a facility for the disposal of the Port Hope areas wastes. That effort resulted in the identification of a single volunteer community. However, negotiations between the federal government and the municipality were unable to reach an acceptable agreement establishing the conditions for the community to host the waste management facility. The third effort, a community-driven approach, was undertaken in the late-1990s and resulted in an agreement in 2001 between the Government of Canada and the local communities that sets in motion a process for the cleanup of the local wastes and long-term management in new local waste management facilities. This paper provides insights into the history of the problem, the efforts of the federal government over the last two decades to deal with the issue, how local participation and decision-making processes affected the successes of the various siting approaches, and lessons learned that might be of interest to others who must deal with environmental remediation situations that involve siting long-term management facilities.

Abstract:
Most histories of digital design in architecture are limited, and begin with the initial investigations into artificial intelligence by the Architecture Machine Group at MIT during the 1960s, and end with a mention of the Evolutionary Architecture at the ArchitectureAssociation during the late 1980s and early 1990s. However if one was to examine many of the artworks created during this time, several artists were working with similar ideas, concepts, and technologies on artificial intelligence. This paper is a media archaeology of responsive environments in contemporary practice.It endeavors to discover the historical and theoretical genealogy of affective, experiential, collaborative work of emerging, contemporary, transdisciplinary groups such as UNITED VISUAL ARTISTS. It does so by revisiting some of the projects by the 1966 artist collaborative, PULSA: People Using Light and SoundArtistically. Both the historical and contemporary examples presented here serve as examples in which the discipline of architecture can expand and take on multi-disciplinary collaborations, and the experience of architecture can transform into one which more fully engages the human senses.

A comparative analysis reveals differences and similarities in the current concentrations of heavy metals in bottom sediments and pre-industrial levels. It is found that the maximum concentrations of heavy metals in the bottom sediments of the Gulf of Finland and Neva Bay occurred in the period of 1950-1990. Since the 1990s, the trend has been a slow decline in the contamination levels; however, the concentrations of some heavy metals in bottom sediments remain high.

In 80th International Scientific Conference of the University of Latvia. University of Latvia Press, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.22364/htqe.2022.40.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper examines an ideologically idealised and a realistic discourse about rural Latvian teachers during the late 1940s and early 1950s, as represented, respectively, in the newspaper Skolotāju Avīze (The Teachers’ Newspaper), and in the memoirs of the former teacher and writer Andrejs Dripe. Dripe’s memoirs date back to the 1990s, when diaries written by him after WWII were published. The texts are analyzed with the discourse-historical approach, with the aim and result being the identification of discourse among and about rural teachers. The newspaper Skolotāju Avīze was established to create a discourse about the global excellence of Soviet teacher which, nonetheless, did include positive and negative evaluation. The basis of this judgement was the extent to which teachers did or did not include themselves in the Soviet educational system and in the processes of Sovietisation. Dripe also divided teachers into positive and negative categories in a discursive manner. His point of view, however, emerges from his and his family’s success in living and surviving in the Soviet system. The evidence suggests that discourse about teachers in such publications as Skolotāju Avīze and Dripe’ memoirs cannot be identified or analysed without the contextual foundations of history, in this case the Stalinist period in Latvia.

Abstract:
Defined as Turanist, Eurasianist, pro-Russian, pro-Iranian, anti-immigrant but pro-Islam, racist, antisemitic, anti-Roma, Hungarist, and radically populist, Jobbik do not exist in a vacuum. The rise of Jobbik from deep nationalist, antisemitic, and anti-Roma currents in Hungarian politics dates back to the late 1980s and early 1990s. Despite its extensive efforts at “image refurbishment” in recent years, Jobbik remains a populist, revisionist, racist, radical right-wing party that threatens to destabilize Hungary, the neighboring region, and the EU.

Full text
Abstract:
When in the 1880s farmers in southern Ghana began to plant cocoa, their main concerns were finding land to plant and mobilising labour to do so. The issue of finding land remained paramount until at least the 1990s, when the land frontier of forest to clear for cocoa finally closed. The last forests to be planted were in the old Western Region and particularly in Sefwi, now the Western North Region. This paper examines how farmers in Sefwi obtained land and mobilised labour in the late 2010s, and how that has changed since the 1960s.

Natural Resources Canada/CMSS/Information Management, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.4095/321828.

Full text
Abstract:
Cretaceous-Paleogene strata along the eastern coast of Baffin Island, on Bylot Island, and on associated islands north of Cape Dyer, have been known since the early days of exploration of Baffin Bay in the mid-nineteenth century. Studies of these strata in the 1970s-1990s established their clastic nature and revealed details of their stratigraphy, ages, and depositional settings. Onshore strata in the Cape Dyer area accumulated in close association with volcanic deposits related to late-stage rifting in the Late Cretaceous to Early Paleocene that eventually formed Baffin Bay. In contrast, deposits in more northerly areas, such as the Eclipse and North Bylot troughs on Bylot Island, exhibit similar clastic rocks, but lack conspicuous volcanic strata, and have been associated with either the Sverdrup Basin or the Baffin Bay rift. The litho- and biostratigraphy of these deposits are summarized and discussed in terms of differing and contrasting stratigraphic interpretations, age assignments, and depositional environments.

Full text
Abstract:
Since the late 1970s, many countries have based their tax systems on self-assessment – taxpayers are expected to evaluate their liabilities autonomously, and voluntarily remit their tax due. If the tax system is perceived as fair and easy to navigate, with credible threat of penalisation for non-compliance, self-assessment reduces the cost of tax administration without significant revenue losses (Barr et al. 1977; Teviotdale and Thompson 1999; James and Alley 2004). On the other hand, self-assessment entails an increase in compliance costs for taxpayers, at the very least in terms of time spent complying with their obligations. However, none of the conditions mentioned above – fairness, simplicity and credibility – is easy to meet. Hence, initial moves towards self-assessment were met in many countries with an increased focus on what type of deterrence measures would increase taxpayer compliance (Forest and Sheffrin 2002), following the prevalent theoretical approach of the time (Allingham and Sandmo 1972). By the late 1990s, the focus was shifting to the perceived fairness and complexity of the tax system, increasingly seen as both a direct and indirect obstacle to compliance (Slemrod and Venkatesh 2002; Forest and Sheffrin 2002; Eichfelder and Schorn 2012). Intuitively, a taxpayer who does not understand their tax obligations has a hard time complying with them, and might well decide not to try at all – especially if penalisation is seen as unlikely.

Abstract:
Muhammad Rizieq Shihab has been one of the most well-known faces of the far-right in Indonesia since the late 1990s. As a radical Islamist scholar with links to Saudi Arabia, Shihab has spent the last three decades as an anti-state voice of the “pious Muslim majority” in Indonesia. He claims to position himself as a “righteous” and “fearless” leader who is dedicated to defending Islam—the faith of “the people.” In 2020 Shihab was arrested for holding large public gatherings, as part of his ‘moral revolution’ campaign, in the middle of pandemic lockdowns. However, his radical Salafist message continues to inspire thousands to action.
