 | | | TransJakarta Bus Rapid Transit: Challenges towards Sustainable Transportation System of Jakarta As the capital and largest city of Indonesia, Jakarta is constantly facing increasing challenges in traffic congestion and dangerous pollution as an outcome of increasing use of cars and motorbikes (NYC Global Partners 2012; Shah and Nagpal [eds] 1997). According to a government report (BPS Provinsi DKI Jakarta 2014, p. 478), as per December 2013, the amount of registered motor vehicles operating in Jakarta (excluding police, army and foreign diplomat's vehicles) has reached 16,072,869 units. This number is higher than Jakarta's estimated population of 9,969,948 people in 2013 (BPS 2015, p.... | | "Imaginare Aude! Lessons of the Rojava Revolution" This is a draft of a review of To Dare Imagining: Rojava Revolution (Brooklyn, NY: Autonomedia, 2016). Please cite the final, edited version, which appears in Capitalism Nature Socialism, vol. 27, no. 3 (Sept. 2016):103-110. | | On Capital, Primitive Accumulation, and Violence This paper attempts to elaborate a political theory of capital's violence. Expropriation, displacement, and exclusion have become pervasive under the neoliberal phase of capitalism, triggering an upsurge of scholarly interest in the role of coercion and violence in capitalist expansion. Recent analyses have often adopted Karl Marx's notion of the "primitive accumulation of capital" for investigating the forcible methods by which the conditions of capital accumulation are created and reproduced in the present. In this paper, I argue that the analytic function accorded to "primitive... | | Depoliticised activism? Ambivalence and pragmatism at the COP16 Purpose This paper interrogates forms of activist organisation at the UNFCCC COP16 in Cancún and reveals their attempts to create alternatives to a seemingly 'depoliticised' response to climate change. The article argues that existing attempts to challenge depoliticisation face problems in the form of governmental opposition, limitations on forms of organising, and internal conflicts between activists. Design/methodology/approach This paper utilises 'scholar-activist' engagement with actors at alternative 'popular' spaces established outside the COP16 in Cancún, Mexico. It draws upon... | | A mixed-method analysis of the Galway bike share scheme using stakeholder interviews, user surveys and trip data Cycling is currently enjoying an uptake across Irish urban areas and there has been increased investment in cycling provision in recent years. In 2009, for example, DublinBikes launched in Dublin, becoming the first public bike share scheme in Ireland. It has since been followed by similar schemes in Galway, Cork, Limerick and Belfast. Galway's population characteristics, noted for its large student and tourist numbers, should positively impact on its cycling level and bike share scheme usage, however the city's car-oriented transport network and narrow medieval streets are limiting... | | Knowledge Organization for Learning This paper discusses and illustrates through examples how meaningful or deep learning can be supported through well-structured presentation of material, through giving learners schemas they can use to organize knowledge in their minds, and through helping learners to understand knowledge organization principles they can use to construct their own schemas. It is a call to all authors, educators and information designers to pay attention to meaningful presentation that expresses the internal structure of the domain and facilitates the learner's assimilation of concepts and their relationships. | | Web 2.0 Messaging Tools for Knowledge Management? Exploring the Potentials of Slack There are many web-based tools like social networks, collaborative writing, or messaging tools that connect organizations in accordance with web 2.0 principles. Slack is such a web 2.0 instant messaging tool. As per developer, it integrates the entire communication, file-sharing, real-time messaging, digital archiving and search at one place. Usage in line with these functionalities would reflect expected appropriation, while other usage would account for unexpected appropriation. We explored which factors of web 2.0 tools determine actual usage and how they affect knowledge management... | | |
