A Field Communication System for Volunteer Urban Search and Rescue Teams Combining 802.11ax and LoRaWAN

Despite the technological progress achieved by our society, natural or man-made disasters continue to pose a challenge and put to the test the organization and preparedness of government apparatuses. The loss of life and property following calamities motivates citizens into action. In response, volunteer Urban Search And Rescue (USAR) organizations are established with the aim of providing help when needed. Just like their government funded and run counterparts, these organizations try to use what technology has to offer to improve their efficiency. However, they face challenges due to their limited funding and inability to access certain resources such as licensed spectrum for their communications. This situation is further deteriorated because civilian communication infrastructure cannot be relied upon to be available in case of disasters. Communications are paramount for any operation, let alone USAR. To address this need, we have designed and built a field deployable communication system that is able to leverage what existing communication infrastructure is available and utilizes 802.11ax and LoRaWAN that operate in unlicensed spectrum to provide wireless local connectivity. The performance and suitability of the system have been tested in various small and large-scale exercises, while the range and transmission speed achieved by 802.11ax over its predecessors are determined through a measurement campaign. In this article, we report the results and lessons learned from our approach to fill this communication gap and the suitability of the selected technologies for the role.

Reassessing Reification: Ethnicity amidst “Failed” Governmentality in Burma and India

AbstractIn part because a single colonial project eventually formally incorporated Burma as an appendage to British colonial rule of India, Burma scholars persistently draw on historiography and anthropology of India to assert that ethnic categories in Burma were “reified” and hierarchized by colonial governmentality and ensuing postcolonial statecraft. This article disputes such assumed equivalences, re-theorizing “reification” through the concept of governmentality to distinguish modes of regulation and the kinds of social responses incited, suggesting that India and Burma stand as respective exemplars of distinct governmental forms. Specifically, scholarship represents Indian population groups (of caste, tribe, ethnicity, etc. permutations) as being reified by dense and reinforcing applications of knowledge/power. Even when these various and interlinking regulatory apparatuses “fail” to accurately describe social reality, they interpellate a response from subject populations, a process that operates to dialectically reinforce the categories. Conversely, similar governmental apparatuses desultorily implemented in Burma have operated differently. While they have succeeded in making South Asian and Muslim subjects into Burma’s self-perceived constitutive outside, governmentality has “doubly failed” on itstaingyintha(indigenous) subjects. Poor knowledge of these Burmese peoples has foreclosed intensive projects of knowledge production, leading to “misinterpellation,” a form of metapragmatic awareness in which subjects recognize that discourses misdescribe them, and then strategically maneuver with(in) those labels. Ethnic emblems become hollow integuments navigable with comparative ease, as individuals modify their particular bodily and dispositional indices. The article concludes by encouraging comparative postcolonial governmentality studies that would delineate particularities in a concept (governmentality) that often remains unnuanced.

Impact of financial development, trade flows, and institution on environmental sustainability in emerging markets

The present study is motivated by the need to decouple economic growth from environmental degradation given the new wave of chase for higher economic growth trajectories comes with its environmental cost implications, especially among developing blocs like the Emerging 7 (E7) countries. There is a consistent trade-off between economic growth versus environmental quality. Government apparatus are perpetually on the chase for low-carbon emission policies via the pursuit for green economy. To this end, this present study extends the conventional environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) argument by incorporating the role of institution in emerging industrialized economies (E7) and using second-generation panel analysis methods like mean group (MG), augmented mean group (AMG), common correlated effects mean group (CCEMG), and the Dumitrescu and Hurlin causality test for more robust estimates and inferences. To this end, we explore the long-run and causality relationship between economic growth, quadratic form of economic growth, institutional quality, trade flow, investment in energy sector, and financial development in an EKC environment. Empirical analysis established a long-run equilibrium relationship among the outlined variables over the study period. The long-run regression shows the presence of EKC in the E7. Thus, suggesting the preference for GDP growth over environmental quality at the earlier stage of growth curve. Interestingly, investment in energy, trade flow dynamics across the blocs, and financial development dampens the detrimental effect of environmental pollution as we observed negative relationship with the ecological footprint. On the contrary, quality of institution is weak as institutional quality increase (worsen) the quality of environment in the E7 economies. From a policy perspective, this current study proposed the need for more stringent environmental treaties and regulations and promotion of green economy without compromising economic growth. In the conclusion part of the study, more details and specifics about the policy blueprint are presented.

Influence of Lean and Agile Management, Digital Transformation, and Transformational Leadership Toward Performance of Sumedang Government Apparatus

This investigation was prompted by the conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic, which created rapid changes in the bureaucratic environment. This initial study is intended to explain how the Indonesian bureaucracy responds to changes due to the pandemic. A literature study is used to aggregate some of the findings of the latest research in Indonesia and official and accountable reports on bureaucratic governance. General results showed that the bureaucracy in Indonesia is still very stuttering in carrying out its functions. Bureaucratic formalism, as an effect of the Weberian bureaucracy, finds its contradiction when the public needs fast and fair service. Still, the response required by the public does not accompany it. Further studies must be initiated to formulate an agile and public-centered bureaucratic model in the post-pandemic era.
