<p><strong>English<br /></strong>The population of native chicken in Indonesia is around 200 millions, but its remarkable potential is not yet exploitate properly. The reviews study is based on related report and reference of native chicken conducted in Indonesia. The focus of the study is to determine whether the intensive native chicken farming could be able to develop as a source of employment and income generating activities. The question is based on the inferior economic performance of native chicken compared to layer or broiler. The study results indicate that intensive native chicken farming can be considered as promising economic activity, therefore the active role of government is needed to enhance the said industry for improving employment and income in rural area.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Indonesian<br /></strong>Indonesia mempunyai kurang lebih 200 juta ayam buras. Potensi yang sangat besar ini ternyata belum diusahakan secara intensif.Tulisan ini merupakan tinjauan tentang ayam beras di Indonesia berdasarkan hasil-hasil penelitian yang sudah dilakukan tinjauan khususnya diarahkan apakah usaha ayam beras secara intensif memungkinkan untuk dikembangkan sebagai sumber lapangan kerja dan pendapatan? Pertanyaan ini muncul karena sifat-sifat ekonomi ayam buras relatif lebih rendah dibandingkan ayam ras,tetapi nilai ekonomi produksi ayam buras relatif jauh lebih tinggi terutama karena bebas residu kimia dan antibiotika. Hasil studi menunjukan bahwa ayam buras dapat diusahakan sebagai usaha ekonomi,sehingga peran aktif pemerintah sangat diperlukan dalam mendorong keberhasilan industri ayam buras dalam meningkatkan lapangan pekerjaan dan pendapatan masyarakat pedesaan</p>

After decades of centralized control of economic activity in space, NASA and US policymakers have begun to cede the direction of human activities in space to commercial companies. NASA garnered more than 0.7 percent of GDP in the mid-1960s, but is only around 0.1 percent of GDP today. Meanwhile, space has become big business, with $300 billion in annual revenue. The shift from public to private priorities in space is especially significant because a widely shared goal among commercial space's leaders is the achievement of a large-scale, largely self-sufficient, developed space economy. Jeff Bezos, has stated that the mission of his firm Blue Origin is “millions of people living and working in space.” Elon Musk, founder of SpaceX, has laid out plans to build a city of a million people on Mars within the next century. Both Neil deGrasse Tyson and Peter Diamandis have been given credit for stating that Earth's first trillionaire will be an asteroid-miner. Such visions are clearly not going to become reality in the near future. But detailed roadmaps to them are being produced and recent progress in the required technologies has been dramatic. If such space-economy visions are even partially realized, the implications for society will be enormous. Though economists should treat the prospect of a developed space economy with healthy skepticism, it would be irresponsible to treat it as science fiction. In this article, I provide an analytical framework—based on classic economic analysis of the role of government in market economies—for understanding and managing the development of the space economy.

AbstractWe argue that concerted efforts by Tea Party leaders, Republican politicians, and leading Christian Right figures to establish and promote a connection between Christian faith and the free-market system has helped shift the economic attitudes of white evangelical Protestants in a more conservative direction. Our analysis of Public Religion Research Institute survey data finds that white evangelical Protestants express greater skepticism about an active role of government in society and believe economic growth is more likely to be spurred by a reduction in taxes rather than in public investments. Moreover, we find that identifying with the Tea Party has a conservatizing influence on their economic issue positions. While we find that partisanship, class, and in some cases, age, serve to modify the views of some evangelicals, by and large, evangelicals have come to embrace the conservative fiscal message promoted by both the Republican Party and the Tea Party movement.

Historians and political scientists have noted that appointments of judges to the U.S. Courts of Appeals are not determined by senatorial courtesy alone. What has not been adequately explained is why and when a president defers to a senator's choice rather than seek to control the selection. This article attempts to understand the politics of federal appellate court appointments. The author first identifies a major change in the work of the courts of appeals during the years 1900-1945—the growth in review of the actions of newly created federal regulatory agencies. Then, by examining Justice Department files and presidential correspondence, he discoveres three patterns of appointment emerging in the same period. The patterns vary with presidential perceptions of the role of the federal government and of the courts of appeals' ability to affect accomplishment of administration goals. Appointments during the first years of the presidencies of Theodore and Franklin Roosevelt and during the Harding and Coolidge administrations were dominated by patronage concerns. Those administrations yielded to the recommendations of senators and demonstrated no interest in the policy-making potential of these courts. In the two other patterns the White House played a more active role, with senators more often deferring to the president's selection. Concerns about professionalism dominated selections in Taft's and Hoover's administrations: because they recognized the policy importance of those judgeships but saw the role of government as limited, they sought judicial craftsmen who would make policy only incrementally. Policy concerns dominated selections during Wilson's administration and the latter years of both the Roosevelts' administrations: Justice Department officials screened nominees to determine their policy orientation, because federal appellate court judgeships were perceived as crucial policy positions that could affect the president's ability to implement his reform programs.

A 24-item questionnaire was designed to collect specific data in order to determine Omani students’ attitudes toward agriculture and, specifically, whether or not these attitudes differ according to gender and the geographical regions where students reside. A survey research method based on the use of a questionnaire was employed. The questionnaire items were divided into four domains: participants’ general knowledge about agriculture, their personal interest about agriculture, the role of government in supporting agriculture, and the role of agriculture in food security. The questionnaire was administered to 394 randomly selected Grade 10 students. Participants consisted of 189 male students and 205 female students in total. Questionnaires were distributed to 130 students from North Al Batinah Governorate, 142 from Al-Dakhiliyah Governorate, and 122 from Muscat Governorate. Questionnaire reliability was calculated using Cronbach’s alpha, an internal consistency method, which resulted in a value of 0.83 for the instrument. The study was conducted in the 2016/2017 academic year. The findings indicated that students’ attitudes toward agriculture, overall, were positive and both gender and geographical region had an effect upon their attitudes. The results of this study demonstrate a need to recommend improving students’ attitudes towards agriculture, especially for students who reside in the Muscat Governorate; for example, schools should be encouraged to include agricultural collaborative learning activities, both inside and outside the classroom. Overall, the study results suggest a benefit in conducting additional research in the area of agriculture education in Oman.

The objective of this survey is to identify types of water conservation methods applied by the local government and the society at the Bekasi Jaya District (Kelurahan Bekasi Jaya), of the East Bekasi Region. Surveys were conducted at nine groups of households  (Rukun Wilayah) that had history of flood during the rainy season and/or drought during the dry season. Questionnaires were used to collect information from 214 respondents.  Additional data were collected through  in-depth interviews with local authorities and few residents who were familiar with the water conservation activities in the region. This survey revealed that there is no proper conservation method applied in all studied areas. Lack of conservation efforts include both minimum activity of extension by the local authority on the important of water conservation, as well as applied conservation programs in the field.  Only three households have some kind of water conservation method in place <em>i.e</em>. by making water collecting wells and ponds. However, these wells and ponds were not structurally up to the standard and need much improvement.  As much as 46% of the respondents had flood experience. We identified several contributing factors to these water issue, among others : 1) High rate of population growth in this area; 2) Lack of water absorption areas (vegetative-covered areas); 3) River shallowness due to household wastes that were thrown into the river; and 4) The presence of building around the river banks. Active role of government to conserve water in this region and to develop this area with the principle of sustainable is absolutely required as should be done as soon as possible.

The educational policy applied in a country has significant implications in education. The national educational goals of a country can be easily achieved if the state plays an active role in education. The active role is not only in the determination of curriculum and model of education, but also on the level of education budget and the direction of education policy in that country. This article discusses the comparison of education in two countries with the majority Muslim population, namely Iraq and Oman. This article is an online data-based study. The results of the study in this study concluded that the role of government is very urgent in determining the success of national education. Another conclusion of the comparison of education in the two countries is that education in both countries is not capitalist, and Education is not used as a business field to reap profits for the stakeholders.
