Takwa: Landasan Spiritual dalam Menghadapi Ketimpangan Ekonomi dan Mewujudkan Keadilan Sosial

This research examines the role of piety in promoting social justice, with a particular focus on the growing economic inequality in society. Piety, defined as moral and spiritual awareness of responsibility to God, is expected to motivate individuals and communities to act justly and contribute to the improvement of social welfare.

The results show that piety has great potential as a driver of inclusive and equitable social policies, encouraging individuals to care more about others. However, challenges in its implementation, including ambiguity in understanding and misuse of piety values to justify injustice, remain to be overcome for piety to truly become a tool for change. The findings are expected to make a significant contribution to the development of more just and equitable public policies, and inspire concrete actions in a more prosperous society.

Using theory of planned behaviour to understand and manage the factors affecting farmers’ intention in pesticide use

Misuse and overuse of pesticides cause irreversible damage to the environment and human health and negatively affect sustainability in agriculture. This study was conducted to determine the factors affecting farmers’ intentions to use pesticides with the theory of planned behaviour (TPB). Unlike the previous studies in this topic, this study includes moral norms, knowledge and awareness of government actions, which are not included in the original TPB but are tested separately in different studies. In this study, data were collected from 363 farmers by random sampling method with the help of pre-prepared questionnaires. The results showed that attitude, perceived behavioural control, pesticide knowledge and awareness of government actions increased with increasing age. In addition, it was found that educational status positively affected all variables of TPB. One of the important results of the study was that the TPB variables of farmers engaged in mixed production increased positively. In line with the results obtained, it was determined that as the scores of perceived behavioural control, attitude and knowledge about pesticides increased, farmers’ intentions regarding pesticide use decreased. According to the results of the research, moral norms do not reduce farmers’ intentions regarding pesticide use, that is, farmers do not limit their pesticide use from an ethical perspective. However, moral norms (MN) have shown results that are highly compatible with the TPB model, and it is extremely important to include MN the TPB structure in studies to be conducted with different societies and samples.

Values in Narratives: Religious Education as an Exercise in Emotional Rationality

The domain of education deals with the issue of the possibility of a person’s development so that the person would learn to become more human through the educational process. An integral part of a person’s development is first and foremost the dimension of an individual’s integration into society. Education for values plays an indispensable role in education. The technical aspect of education—as John Macmurray described it—has its foundation in instrumental rationality, aiming at the realization of utilitarian values in order to achieve the necessary social cooperation for the purpose of an easier coexistence. That so-called instrumental conception of life has given birth to a special type of the contemporary human being, homo faber. If, however, we strive to achieve the complete development of a human being through education, which is more fully realized only in the communion of people in the forms of friendship, fellowship and love, this instrumental conception requires enrichment through a communitarian conception of life, aimed at the realization of intrinsic values. In that sense, this article explores the contemplative and relational aspects of education from the perspective of religious education, which, according to John Macmurray, are based on the emotional level of rationality which results in the acquisition and adoption of intrinsic individual and inter-individual values. The aim of this article is to show that when it comes to education, these values are best conveyed through narratives. The article also attempts to shed light on the way students internalize and personalize intrinsic values through their emotional familiarity with the narratives, and especially with the value of reciprocity, which is key to authentic religious practice, and thus also to ethical awareness, which is important for the formation of moral awareness and character of a human being. Furthermore, the article explores the extent to which narratives as a form of religious knowledge are important in religious education, and in which they contribute to the formation of students’ opinions, attitudes and identities as transmitters of religious truths. Narratives notably carry a strong potential for the spiritual transformation of one’s personal and social life in such a way that they can motivate students to accept and realize certain religious and moral practices through experiential touching of values. Examples of narratives used in religious education textbooks in secondary schools in Croatia reveal how much they actually contribute to the goals of religious education in terms of education for intrinsic individual and inter-individual values.

Аналітичний огляд міжнародного досвіду з формування та реалізації освітніх програм у системі антидопінгової діяльності в спорті

Introduction. Modern compre- hension of the existing problems and mechanisms for their resolution, based on the best national-level practices, is a critical prerequisite for the preparation and implementation of corresponding programs in Ukraine. The Aim of This Study: to examine the features of developing and implementing educational programs in countries with highly effective anti-doping systems in sports. Research Methods: the study employs theoretical analysis of scientific literature, online information resources, and documentary materials, along with comparative analysis. Results. An analysis of the successful implementation of the UNESCO International Convention against Doping in Sport and the Council of Europe’s Anti-Doping Convention in various countries revealed that the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Poland rank among the nations with highly efficient anti-doping systems. In these countries, national anti-doping organizations play a leading role in the development and implementation of relevant educational programs. These organizations work closely with government bodies, sports federations, research institutions, and educational institutions. Such educational programs are aimed at fostering a "clean sport" culture and preventing athletes from using doping by promoting moral resilience and awareness of the consequences of violations. In the current context, anti- doping educational programs combine both offline and online training through dedicated internet platforms and mobile applications. Gamification and real-life scenario simulations have become dominant methods to ensure the interactivity of learning. Indicators of successful program implementation include a reduction in anti-doping rule violations and an increase in awareness among athletes. Conclusion. The advanced international experience in the development and implementation of educational programs in the anti-doping system in sports is characterized by its multidimensional nature and shares common features to ensure the integrity of sport. The application of this experience in Ukraine holds great promise and requires further research.

The Psychological Mechanism of Moral Leadership Influencing Responsible Subordinate Behavior

As China’s anti-corruption campaign intensifies, several of those involved in various capacities in the public sector are demonstrating slackness, a lack of moral awareness, and a weakened sense of responsibility. This study analyzes the multiple mechanisms influencing the responsible behavior of public sector personnel by combining certain key factors, such as managers’ moral leadership style, psychological security, and the notion of interactive justice.

The results of a two-stage paired survey and structural equation modeling analysis of civil servants from 48 departments and eight units in Shandong and Henan provinces show that moral leadership positively impacts responsible behavior. Moreover, psychological security and interactive justice play a mediating role between them. Furthermore, this study elaborates upon the mechanism of moral leadership affecting the responsible behavior of employees, which is of great value for improving the efficiency of government management and guiding civil servants to behave more responsibly.
