The management and protection of protected areas such as nature reserves remains a primary concern for the different stakeholders involved especially the marginalised rural communities that are deprived of genuine ownership of the natural resources. Therefore, the representation of the marginalised rural communities adjacent to the protected areas has become significant in the control and utilisation of natural resources in protected areas. Community Property Associations (CPAs) have been tasked with the mandate to ensure community representation in the management of natural resources. However, their participation in the management of natural resources have been questioned and under scrutiny. The aim of this study is to investigate the challenges in communal participation in management of nature reserves. A qualitative research method was used for collecting data. Semi-structured interviews were utilised to collect data from a sample constituting n=10 respondents. The data were analysed using thematic analysis. The data from this study revealed that there is limited participation by the CPA members in the management of Dwesa-Cwebe Nature Reserve. The ownership and participation in the management of natural resources by local communities is important in ensuring meaningful development.   Received: 21 July 2021 / Accepted: 20 September 2021 / Published: 5 November 2021

The real property law is a legal institution of civil law, introduced in the Civil Code of 1916 by Status of Women Married - Law nº 4.121 / 1962, which required numerous requirements for its grant and maintenance, namely, (a) were married under the regime of community property; (b) during his lifetime; (c) and remained widow; (d) subject to the inheritance share, the property should be for the family residence and, finally, (e) were the only asset of this nature to inventory. With the advent of the Civil Code of 2002, however, it was extended to all property regime, removed the final term and with the Domestic Partnership Act, It was no longer needed that it was the only good of that nature to inventory. It was questioned the extent of its application in this case and the need for consideration to not fade the right to inheritance. Analyzed the rights involved, Right to inheritance, Property Rights, Right to living and the Real Property Law. It was concluded that the interpreter of the Law must, before the case, carry out the judgment of balancing the conflicting fundamental Rights so that there is maximum preservation of conflicting values, and hence the greatest achievement of constitutional values.

Abstract. Conceptual frameworks linking microbial community membership, properties, and processes with the environment and emergent function have been proposed but remain untested. Here we refine and test a recent conceptual framework using hyporheic zone sediments exposed to wetting–drying transitions. Our refined framework includes relationships between cumulative properties of a microbial community (e.g., microbial membership, community assembly properties, and biogeochemical rates), environmental features (e.g., organic matter thermodynamics), and emergent ecosystem function. Our primary aim was to evaluate the hypothesized relationships that comprise the conceptual framework and contrast outcomes from the whole and putatively active bacterial and archaeal communities. Throughout the system we found threshold-like responses to the duration of desiccation. Membership of the putatively active community – but not the whole bacterial and archaeal community – responded due to enhanced deterministic selection (an emergent community property). Concurrently, the thermodynamic properties of organic matter (OM) became less favorable for oxidation (an environmental component), and respiration decreased (a microbial process). While these responses were step functions of desiccation, we found that in deterministically assembled active communities, respiration was lower and thermodynamic properties of OM were less favorable. Placing the results in context of our conceptual framework points to previously unrecognized internal feedbacks that are initiated by disturbance and mediated by thermodynamics and that cause the impacts of disturbance to be dependent on the history of disturbance.

The legal assessment of misappropriation of property belonging to community property by one of the spouses constitutes a heavily contested issue in criminal law. The article analyzes a well-established opinion, according to which such property can be the object of the crime of misappropriation, and which cites the rules of the civil law. The article focuses on the issue of the possibility of assuming in such cases an attack on property, i.e. a violation of the object of the offence, discussed from the perspective of family law, which allows spouses to dispose of such property without the permission of the other spouse, on the basis of the rule of independent property management. Moreover, the author verifies the prerequisite for the seizure of third-party property, given that the property in question belongs also to the defendant, in accordance with the rules of community property. In addition to that, the author discusses the issue of meeting the prerequisites for the subjective aspect and the rule for evaluating the damage inflicted by the offence. The latter issue has been identified as particularly controversial, given that determining the scope of the possible restitution claims according to the value of property which constitutes the object of the offence in a situation where the property belongs also to the defendant is contrary to the intuition of criminal law scholars.

Accessible, low-cost technologies and tools are needed in the developing world to support community planning, disaster risk assessment, and land tenure. Enterprise-scale geographic information system (GIS) software and high-resolution aerial or satellite imagery are tools which are typically not available to or affordable for resource-limited communities. In this paper, we present a concept of aerial data collection, 3D cadastre modeling, and disaster risk assessment using low-cost drones and adapted open-source software. Computer vision/machine learning methods are used to create a classified 3D cadastre that contextualizes and quantifies potential natural disaster risk to existing or planned infrastructure. Building type and integrity are determined from aerial imagery. Potential flood damage risk to a building is evaluated as a function of three mechanisms: undermining (erosion) of the foundation, hydraulic pressure damage, and building collapse due to water load. Use of Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) provides water runoff estimates that are improved using classified land features (urban ecology, erosion marks) to improve flow direction estimates. A convolutional neural network (CNN) is trained to find these flood-induced erosion marks from high-resolution drone imagery. A flood damage potential metric scaled by property value estimates results in individual and community property risk assessments.

Qawā'id Al-Fiqhiyyah has an essential role in identifying new problems that arisen for analysis whether they are following Islamic law or not. The purpose of forming qa'idah-qa'idah in realizing Maqashid Sharia in protecting community property rights must be implemented in every statutory regulation or established by the government. This article examines and analyzes the prohibition of monopolistic practices and unfair business competition in Law No. 5 of 1999 by using several qawā'id al-fiqhiyyah. This paper's study is based on literature data analyzed using qualitative research methods with a multidisciplinary approach. This study concludes that the Law on the prohibition of monopoly and unfair business competition in Law No. 5 of 1999, which contains the prohibition of control of production and marketing, the prohibition of fraud/ conspiracy, and the prohibition of using a dominant position under qawā'id al-fiqhiyyah, among others, namely the rules that say Lâ Yahtakiru illâ Khâthi'un, an-Najasyu Harâmun, and at-Tas'îr. The conformity of the objectives of laws and regulations with the establishment of qa’idah-qa’idah is something that the government must maintain in the Draft Law on the Prohibition of Monopolistic Practices and Unfair Business Competition which is being programmed by the House of Representatives (DPR) of the Republic of Indonesia, so the purpose of being able to maintain community property rights can be implemented in this Law.Qawā’id Al-Fiqhiyyah mempunyai peran penting dalam mengidentifikasi permasalahan-permasalahan baru yang muncul untuk dianalisis apakah sudah sesuai dengan hukum islam atau tidak. Tujuan pembentukan qa’idah-qa’idah dalam mewujudkan Maqashid Syariah dalam menjaga hak milik masyarakat merupakan sesuatu yang harus diimplemantasikan dalam setiap peraturan perundang-undangan yang telah maupun yang akan dibentuk oleh pemerintah. Artikel ini mengkaji dan menganalisa tentang larangan praktik monopoli dan persaingan usaha tidak sehat dalam Undang-undang No. 5 Tahun 1999 dengan menggunakan beberapa kaidah fikih. Kajian dalam tulisan ini berdasarkan data literatur yang dianalisa dengan menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan multidisipliner. Kajian ini menyimpulkan bahwa Undang-Undang tentang larangan monopoli dan persaingan usaha tidak sehat dalam Undang-undang No. 5 Tahun 1999 yang berisi tentang larangan penguasaan produksi dan pemasaran, larangan kecurangan/persekongkolan, dan larangan menggunakan posisi dominan sudah sesuai dengan qawā’id al-fiqhiyyah antara lain yaitu kaidah yang mengatakan Lâ Yahtakiru illâ Khâthi’un, an-Najasyu Harâmun, dan at-Tas’îr. Kesesuaian tujuan peraturan perundang-undangan dengan tujuan dibentuknya qa’idah-qa’idah ini merupakan hal yang harus dipertahankan oleh pemerintah dalam Rancangan Undang-Undang tentang Larangan Praktik Monopoli dan Persaingan Usaha tidak Sehat yang sedang diprogramkan oleh Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Republik Indonesia sehingga tujuan untuk menjaga hak milik masyarakat dapat diimplementasikan dalam Undang-Undang ini.

This paper critically examines the reasons for and processes of sharing SoTL findings with students. Framed by our commitment to SoTL’s role to make teaching “community property,” we interpret sharing SoTL findings with students as an act of knowledge mobilization, where SoTL might be disseminated, translated, or co-created with the student as a legitimate knowledge broker. We connect these knowledge mobilization processes with four primary reasons why faculty might want to share SoTL findings with students. Finally, we provide examples of knowledge mobilization that use different “voices” found in contemporary communication settings and that reach various student audiences in micro, meso, macro, and mega contexts.
