The aim of this paper was to analyze the degree of fragmentation of the checkerboard of land ownership to determine a priority ranking of areas intended for land consolidation in the commune of Białaczów, the Łódz Province (Voivodeship). For a village to be qualified for land consolidation, according to the Act of 26 March 1982 on the Consolidation and Exchange of Land (Official Journal of Laws of 2003, no 178, item 1749, as amended), more than 50% of land owner signatures have to be obtained. On the other hand, the guiding principle for the qualification of a village for a land merger, within the framework of a consolidation program, is that the highest percentage of owners accede to the program. A common obstacle to collecting signatures from landowners is that some of them live outside the village concerned (non-resident owners). The aim of this article was to identify those villages in which land consolidation was an urgent priority.

Dana Desa are one of the most effective policies in village development with the completion of various kinds of infrastructure in the village. On the other hand, this policy caused side effects in the form of criminal acts of corruption against these funds. Through the interpretation of Q.S. Yusuf verse 55, the author offers the actualization of the spirit of mental revolution in the management of village funds through measures to strengthen integrity, increase professionalism, innovation, responsibility, and broaden horizons. Through these steps, the village fund policy can be implemented completely and right on target.

The analysis of the need for agricultural land consolidation in villages of the commune of Sławno was performed to identify villages in which adjustment interventions were needed most urgently. The factors indicative of the urgency of land adjustment were selected on the basis of a comprehensive analysis of the natural, social, economic and financial conditions characterizing the investigated villages. The analysis was carried out on the basis of data obtained from the Register of Land and Buildings of the District Office in Opoczno and the Office of the Commune of Sławno. The study allowed us to determine the surface area of land requiring urgent consolidation and exchange, thus providing grounds for applying for funds for the implementation of the proposed land adjustment scheme. Calculations were done on the basis of 19 factors (x1– x19) belonging to five groups of characteristics describing each of the investigated villages. The results expressed in the form of a synthetic measure calculated for each village allowed us to prioritize consolidation interventions. The priority ranking obtained was compared with another ranking performed using the zero unitarization method (ZUM).

This article evaluates the impacts of land ownership on the economic performance and viability of rice farming in Thailand, and explores whether they are heterogeneous across different types of farming while using the propensity score matching (PSM) technique. This study categorizes land ownership into two types: full land ownership and weak land ownership. We reveal that full land ownership enhances the rice yield of small and midsize farms, with values of 115.789–127.414 kg/hectare and 51.926–70.707 kg/hectare, respectively. On the other hand, weak land ownership only enhances the rice yield of small farms, with an increased yield of 65.590–72.574 kg/hectare. Full land ownership also helps to reduce the informal debt of small and midsize farms by $16.972–$24.877 per farm and $31.393–$37.819 per farm, respectively. On the other hand, weak land ownership helps to reduce the informal debt of midsize farms, ranging from $36.909 to $44.681 per farm. Therefore, policy makers should encourage small and midsize farm households to adopt full land ownership instead of weak land ownership, as this will provide the greatest benefits to farm households and efficient land use.

Opening ParagraphIn 1971–2 I undertook research in part of the very densely populated farming zone around Kano city (often called the Kano close-settled zone) in order to compare it with a Hausa village, Batagarawa, some 100 miles further north in Katsina Emirate, where I had lived and worked in 1967. At Batagarawa farmland is not scarce and members of the community are free to establish farms on uncultivated (bush) land, some of which is no further than a mile or so from the village. For some 30 to 40 miles or more around Kano city, on the other hand, there is little or no uncultivated bush and farmers with insufficient land are obliged to buy or to ‘borrow’ (aro) farmland from others. My purpose was to compare and contrast the socio-economic organization and economic conditions of farmers in the two localities, with special reference, in so far as this variable could be isolated, to population density.

The season which is to be recorded in the following pages has been marked by a persevering and wide-spread activity, both on the part of the Greek Government and the Archaeological Society, and also among all the foreign schools established in Athens. This activity has been rewarded by results which are in many cases very interesting; but at the same time there are no discoveries to record so fortunate and brilliant as those which gave us last season the gold cups of Baphion or the great group by Damophon at Lycosura. One fact, however, is of higher importance than any single discovery. The long-postponed excavation of Delphi has at last been formally conceded to the French School. Those who have heard of the complicated negotiations which have been going on about this matter for the last few years may be surprised to hear that the original draft of the contract, which was published last spring, bears the date 1887. But it did not receive the Royal assent and so become law until 13/25 April, 1891. The chief features of the agreement, which follows the same lines as that made with the Germans about Olympia, are as follows. Right of compulsory expropriation is given, as in the case of roads and railways; all land thus acquired becomes the property of the Greek Government, as also do all antiquities of any kind which may be discovered. On the other hand the right of excavation is given to the French for ten years, and also the exclusive right of copying, photographing, and publishing all antiquities discovered for five years from the date of discovery in each case. The expropriation of the village of Castri is a difficult and tedious process; but it is to be hoped that work will actually begin upon the site of Delphi during the coming season. All will await its results with the highest interest, and with confidence that the French School, under the able direction of M. Homolle, will carry out the excavations with the same high efficiency that has marked its other undertakings.

This study analyzes the implementation of the Village Fund Program and the cause of the delay in absorption of the fund in 2015 in Pacitan District. The Village Fund Program as a central government program was implemented at the first time in 2015. The Civil Society and Village Empowerment Board (BPMPD) was investigated with regard to a sample of seven villages in Pacitan District. The research method is descriptive qualitative analysis, with data collected by conducting interviews and collecting documentation. The results reveal that the delay in absorption was caused by deficient regulations, which were subsequently revised in April 2015 to improve the implementation of the Village Fund Program. As a result, the Program implementation timeline is shifting from the initial plan. On the other hand, the BPMPD of Pacitan District faced difficulties in interpreting the regulations regarding the implementation of the Program from three line ministries.                         Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pelaksanaan Program Dana Desa dan mencari penyebab terjadinya keterlambatan penyerapan dana desa pada tahun 2015. Penelitian ini dilakukan di Kabupaten Pacitan. Penelitian dilakukan pada Badan Pemberdayaan Masyarakat dan Pemerintahan Desa (BPMPD) dan mengambil tujuh desa sebagai sampel. Metode analisis data dalam penelitian ini adalah kualitatif deskriptif, yang sumber datanya diperoleh dengan melaksanakan wawancara dan dari sumber dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa keterlambatan penyerapan Dana Desa disebabkan oleh ketidaksempurnaan peraturan yang mendasari pelaksanaan Program Dana Desa. Akibatnya, pada bulan April 2015 dilakukan perubahan peraturan pelaksanaan Program Dana Desa yang berdampak pada bergesernya timeline pelaksanaan program tersebut. Di samping itu, BPMPD Kabupaten Pacitan menghadapi kendala dalam penginterpretasian peraturan terkait pelaksanaan Program Dana Desa dari tiga kementerian terkait.

Amidst Bollywood’s romanticized landscapes and grandeur settings, depiction of the flora and fauna, roaring rivers and drought prone lands, is difficult to locate. But the new millennium has witnessed some new generation filmmakers, sensitized towards the ecological concerns, thus marking a shift from the illustration of idealised landscapes to the representation of nature’s wrath. Since, cinema in India, has a deep-rooted impact on the masses, these creators employ films as tools to sensitize the population towards the climate change threat which though as perilous as the COVID-19 crisis, is often ignored by a significant amount of population. Dawning upon themselves the responsibility of environmental awakening, Nila Madhab Panda and Abhishek Kapoor highlight in their movies, Kadvi Hawa(2017) and Kedarnath(2018), respectively, the horrors of human callousness, leading to drastic change in Climatic condition in India. Panda’s Kadavi Hawa, dealing with non-repayment of loans followed by suicides, portrays the heart-wrenching imagery of environmental degradation and Climate change that has rendered the Village of Mahua, arid and infertile. Kapoor’s Kedarnath on the other hand, appeals for action through horrifying imagery of the catastrophic floods that disrupted the holy town of Kedarnath, in 2013. Through a detailed analysis of the aforementioned visual portrayals, this article aims to emphasise as to how Films can play an important role in effectively addressing dealing with the issues related to Climate. Further, the rationale of this paper is to underscore the possibility of more such storylines, as a tool towards effective engagement and levitation of conscience.

The third chapter turns towards newcomers in Neukirch and Ebersbach and explores how the villagers responded to the growing inflow of non-locals into the locality in the postwar era. Unlike previous scholarship, which has often focused on one particular group of newcomers, it examines the continuities between different waves of migration in East and West. The chapter reveals that ethnic German refugees, foreign workers, and urban newcomers were in similar ways marginalized by long-standing locals who tried to claim ownership over the spaces of ‘their’ locality. While migration is remembered through very different narratives in Neukirch and Ebersbach, Easterners and Westerners failed to fully come to terms with diversity in their village. In the booming Ebersbach, locals remembered a continuous inflow of strangers that diversified the community. In the shrinking Neukirch, on the other hand, stop-and-go migration was silenced in a narrative of continued homogeneity of the community. The chapter thus demonstrates how migration and integration in the divided Germany played out in local contexts. Diversity in postwar society, it will be shown, was contested in debates over local identity and belonging.
