Purpose-This study aims to identify, map and analyze the intellectual and structural development of carbon market research using bibliometric analysis. It seeks to provide a comprehensive overview of how the field has evolved and to highlight emerging linkages between environmental policy, financial systems and sustainability transition. Design/methodology/approach-This qualitative research applies bibliometric analysis to published articles indexed in Scopus from 2000 to July 2024. VOSviewer and Biblioshiny are used to visualize publication trends, citation networks and keyword cooccurrences, enabling the identification of influential authors, institutions and research clusters within the carbon market domain. Findings-The results show a significant increase in research on the carbon market over the past two decades. China and the United States are the leading contributors and collaborators, with strong institutional and author networks. Keyword mapping reveals four dominant research themes: carbon market policy, carbon and environment, financial carbon market and carbon trading. The analysis also indicates a gradual shift from policy-oriented studies toward research linking carbon markets with financial mechanisms and sustainability objectives. Practical implications-The findings provide insights for governments, regulators, corporations and investors to strengthen policy coordination, enhance market transparency and develop innovative financial instruments in the carbon market. Originality/value-This study provides an updated, structured mapping of global carbon market research, emphasizing its role as a bridge between environmental governance and financial systems. It also identifies potential directions for future empirical research, particularly in market efficiency, risk assessment and carbon pricing in developing economies.
Too often, eco-theological readings of Qur’anic water verses outrun the text—because structural claims are made without a disciplined, transparent, and auditable method. This article examines whether Semitic Rhetorical Analysis (SRA) can serve as an audit-able tool for reading Qur’anic water passages in a way that disciplines ecological inference. Focusing on Q 23:18–19 and Q 25:48–49, it asks how rhetorical segmentation and parallelism clarify the internal logic of the verses beyond atomistic citation. Using qualitative library-based research, the study applies Meynet’s SRA procedure (segmenting the text, identifying correspondences, and mapping inter-unit relations) and then compares the resulting structure with thematic Qur’anic-ecological readings on water, balance (mīzān), and stewardship (khalīfah). The analysis shows that SRA makes visible a coherent argumentative sequence—sending down water, settling it, and directing its benefits—that frames water as an entrusted measure rather than a merely descriptive sign. It also constrains interpretive overreach by requiring each ecological claim to be traceable to a demonstrable textual relation, while still supporting an ethic of restraint and care. Overall, the article indicates that rhetorical-structural analysis can strengthen eco-tafsīr by providing a replicable pathway from textual structure to ethical inference.
Waqf has substantial potential to strengthen local economic development in Indonesia; however, its institutional governance and productive utilization remain uneven across regions. This study examines the governance of waqf assets and the utilization of waqf proceeds for community economic empowerment within the jurisdiction of the Indonesian Waqf Board (BWI) Representative Office of Semarang City. A qualitative case study approach was employed using field research. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with BWI representatives, waqf managers (nazhir), and beneficiaries, complemented by document analysis of relevant regulations and institutional records. The data were analyzed using an interactive qualitative analysis model involving data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal a significant gap between the regulatory mandate and institutional practice. Although BWI Regulation No. 4 of 2010 authorizes BWI to serve as nazhir under specific circumstances, the BWI Representative Office of Semarang City has not assumed this role and does not directly manage waqf assets. Consequently, the governance of waqf assets remains dependent on individual nazhir institutions with varying managerial capacities. Most waqf assets in Semarang City consist of land dedicated to mosques, prayer facilities, educational institutions, and cemeteries, while only a limited proportion has been developed for productive economic activities. Existing productive initiatives are generally managed independently by local nazhir rather than through direct institutional management by BWI. This institutional arrangement constrains the optimization of waqf for community economic empowerment despite the considerable economic potential of available waqf assets. The study argues that strengthening governance capacity, improving institutional coordination, enhancing nazhir professionalism, and implementing systematic monitoring mechanisms are necessary to align waqf management practices with the objectives of national waqf governance. These findings contribute to the discussion on waqf governance by providing empirical evidence of the implementation gap between regulatory frameworks and local institutional practice, while offering policy recommendations for improving productive waqf management in Indonesia.
State-Owned Enterprises in Indonesia bear a dual burden as development agents that prioritize public service and, at the same time, as business entities required to generate substantial profits. A paradox arises when SOEs record massive profits, while society continues to experience economic injustice caused by tariffs, interest rates, or monopolistic prices that create public burdens. This article aims to reconstruct SOE regulations based on justice values so that the orientation toward super-profit does not undermine public welfare. This study employs a doctrinal legal research method using statutory, conceptual, and comparative legal approaches to state business systems in Singapore, Norway, and China. The study finds that a clear separation or a profit-distribution formula is needed so that SOE profits can be transparently returned to the public through public subsidies. The reconstruction of SOE regulations should be directed toward separating commercial SOEs from public-service SOEs, regulating profit-margin limits in essential sectors, and allocating a portion of super-profit SOE dividends to public welfare programs. Such reform positions SOEs as financially sound business entities while also serving as instruments of distributive justice in accordance with the mandate of Constitution.
This study aims to analyze the quality control of Wing King Door products at PT Wadja Karya Dunia Pati using Statistical Quality Control (SQC) and Six Sigma methods. Data was collected during January 2024 with a total production of 10,880 units, and 1,162 defective products were identified. The main types of defects included broken rivets, scratches, dents, and gaps, with broken rivets being the dominant defect. Analysis was conducted using SQC tools such as check sheets, histograms, p-charts, Pareto diagrams, and fishbone diagrams. The results indicate that the production process is not yet fully stable, as there is data outside the control limits. A DPMO value of 208,571.4 with a sigma level of 2.7 indicates that process quality remains low. The causes of defects include human factors, machinery, methods, environment, and materials. Improvement proposals were made using the 5W+1H approach, including operator training, machine maintenance, SOP evaluation, workplace organization, and material control. The implementation of these improvements is expected to reduce defect rates and continuously improve product quality.
