This household appliance and machine repair and maintenance program is designed to promote economic independence for the community in Sedati Village, Sidoarjo, by strengthening technical skills based on local potential. The underlying problem of this activity is the community's high dependence on external repair services and limited ability to handle household appliance damage independently. Therefore, the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach is used, which focuses on utilizing the assets, potential, and capacity already possessed by the community. The program is implemented in a participatory manner, with stages including identification and mapping of local assets, joint planning, technical skills training, hands-on practice, and activity evaluation. The results show an increase in the community's ability and understanding in performing simple household appliance maintenance and repairs. Furthermore, the community is beginning to recognize economic opportunities from their skills, thus potentially developing independent repair service businesses. Thus, the application of the ABCD approach in this activity has proven effective in strengthening the community's economic independence in a sustainable manner through optimizing local assets. Going forward, ongoing mentoring efforts are needed to ensure that the potential that has been established can continue to develop and provide broader economic benefits.

Ngabuburit has grown into a cultural tradition that is deeply embedded in Indonesian society during Ramadan, including among the student demographic. This study investigates the relevance of the ngabuburit tradition to the level of consumer economic literacy and the application of Islamic consumption ethics among university students in the city of Bandung. Employing a quantitative descriptive approach, data were gathered through an online questionnaire distributed to students from various universities across Bandung. The analysis aims to determine whether the pre-iftar waiting activity stimulates impulsive purchasing behavior more strongly than awareness of Islamic consumption principles particularly the avoidance of wasteful spending (tabzir) and extravagance (israf). The study also examines several factors shaping students' consumption patterns, including social environment, lifestyle tendencies, and access to food and beverage products throughout Ramadan. The results are expected to shed light on how students behave as consumers within a local cultural framework and to what degree their economic literacy can moderate consumption behaviors that contradict Islamic principles, while providing an evaluative foundation for cultivating more prudent consumption habits.

Digital transformation has brought fundamental changes to the structure and dynamics of modern industrial economics. Technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and big data not only modify production and distribution processes but also revolutionize marketing strategies and patterns of industrial competition. This study is motivated by the need to understand how digital marketing transformation influences the development of competitive advantage through changes in digital market structure from an industrial economics perspective. In this context, digital marketing functions as a strategic instrument that integrates technology, data, and consumer behavior into market mechanisms. The analysis shows that digitalization creates a network-based market structure characterized by the concentration of economic power in major digital platforms and dominance in data control. This structure affects the intensity of competition, the direction of innovation, and patterns of industry differentiation. Digital marketing transformation enhances efficiency, expands market access, and lowers entry barriers for new players, yet it also creates competitive imbalances due to the dominance of large platforms.Through a digital Structure–Conduct–Performance (SCP) approach, the study finds that market structure acts as an intermediary variable that channels the impact of digitalization on competitive advantage. Digitalization significantly promotes industrial efficiency, innovation, and profitability. Proposed strategic solutions include strengthening digital literacy, developing adaptive regulations, and fostering cross-sector collaboration to create an inclusive, competitive, and sustainable digital industrial ecosystem

This article examines the implementation of a sharia financial literacy education program aimed at supporting community economic development at the Balai Perkumpulan Sub PPKBD Tambakkemerakan, Krian, driven by the persistently low level of community literacy regarding Islamic finance concepts and practices, which has the potential to impede the optimization of Islamic principles-based economic well-being. Employing the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method, this study engaged community members actively throughout the processes of problem identification, program implementation, and evaluation, with activities conducted through socialization sessions, interactive discussions, and practical demonstrations of sharia-compliant financial management in real-life contexts. The findings indicate a measurable improvement in community comprehension of Islamic finance fundamentals, including the prohibition of riba (usury/interest), the importance of financial planning, and the utilization of sharia-compliant financial institutions, alongside observable attitudinal shifts toward more prudent and Islamically normative financial behavior. These outcomes suggest that the program contributes positively to fostering community economic independence and strengthening the application of Islamic economic principles at the household level.

This study aims to analyze people's online shopping behavior and assess its impact on family economic conditions. The development of digital technology has transformed people's consumption habits, particularly in shopping activities, which are now increasingly practical through online platforms. Easy access, product diversity, and various payment options have made online shopping a dominant trend. However, this convenience also has the potential to foster consumer behavior that impacts financial stability. This study aims to analyze bold shopping patterns and their impact on household financial conditions. The approach used is descriptive qualitative library research, collecting and analyzing data from various scientific journals, articles, and related references. The study findings indicate that online shopping has diverse effects: on the one hand, it offers time and cost savings, but on the other hand, it can lead to waste and indiscipline in family budget management if not supported by adequate self-control. Therefore, an understanding of financial management and digital literacy is crucial to ensure optimal use of technology without harming family economic well-being. Furthermore, this phenomenon requires synergy between digital platform policies and consumer education to mitigate the risk of impulsive buying. This research confirms that psychological factors often outweigh objective needs in digital transactions. As a recommendation, adaptive financial management support strategies are needed for families in this era of disruption to maintain domestic economic resilience against the pressures of a modern lifestyle.

Latar belakang penelitian ini berakar pada fenomena kemajuan yang tidak merata di antara indikator pembangunan di Sumatera Utara, di mana Indeks Pembangunan Manusia (IPM), meskipun diklasifikasikan dalam kategori “tinggi”, belum secara konsisten berkontribusi pada penurunan tingkat pengangguran. Tujuan utama penelitian ini adalah untuk menguji pengaruh IMB, tingkat kemiskinan, dan tingkat pengangguran terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi di Provinsi Sumatera Utara. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kuantitatif dengan analisis regresi linier berganda menggunakan data deret waktu dari tahun 2010 hingga 2025 yang bersumber dari BPS. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa secara simultan, IPM, kemiskinan, dan pengangguran secara signifikan mempengaruhi pertumbuhan ekonomi daerah. Secara parsial, IMB memiliki pengaruh positif dan signifikan, menunjukkan bahwa investasi dalam kualitas modal manusia meningkatkan produktivitas ekonomi. Sebaliknya, baik tingkat kemiskinan maupun tingkat pengangguran terbuka menunjukkan pengaruh negatif dan signifikan, yang menyiratkan bahwa peningkatan variabel-variabel ini cenderung menghambat ekspansi ekonomi. Lebih lanjut, variabel independen yang dimasukkan dalam model ini menjelaskan 49,49% variasi pertumbuhan ekonomi, sedangkan proporsi sisanya dijelaskan oleh faktor eksternal di luar cakupan penelitian ini. Hasil ini menyoroti pentingnya penerapan kebijakan yang menyelaraskan pengembangan sumber daya manusia dengan tuntutan pasar tenaga kerja untuk mengatasi masalah pengangguran terdidik.

Exchange rates are a crucial indicator in an open economy, playing a significant role in influencing international trade, investment flows, and overall macroeconomic stability. This study aims to analyze the impact of rupiah exchange rate fluctuations on Indonesia’s economic growth during the period 2014–2023. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach using secondary data obtained from official publications of Statistics Indonesia and Bank Indonesia. The main variables analyzed include the rupiah exchange rate against the United States dollar and Indonesia’s economic growth. The findings indicate that exchange rate movements are closely related to economic growth dynamics, particularly through international trade mechanisms, production costs, and the stability of the real sector. Depreciation of the exchange rate tends to enhance export competitiveness, but it may also trigger inflation due to rising import prices. Conversely, appreciation can help control inflation but may weaken export competitiveness. Therefore, maintaining exchange rate stability is essential to support sustainable economic growth and strengthen national economic resilience.

Technological advancements and the rapid growth of globalization have fundamentally changed the way organizations conduct business activities, creating increasingly complex challenges and opportunities in both local and international markets. Organizations are now required to adapt quickly to changing consumer preferences, technological innovation, market competition, and economic uncertainty. In this environment, economics, management, and accounting have become three essential disciplines that play a crucial role in determining organizational effectiveness and long-term sustainability. Economics helps organizations understand market behavior, pricing strategies, supply and demand conditions, and macroeconomic factors that influence business performance. Management focuses on planning, organizing, leading, and controlling resources to ensure operational efficiency and goal achievement. Accounting provides reliable financial information through systematic recording, reporting, and analysis of transactions, enabling organizations to evaluate performance and maintain accountability. This study aims to analyze the relationship between these three disciplines in supporting organizational decision-making processes and improving overall performance. The research employs a literature review method by examining various recent academic books and journal articles. The findings reveal that the integration of economics, management, and accounting strengthens strategic planning, improves resource allocation, enhances financial transparency, and supports sustainable organizational growth in a highly competitive global environment.

Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi fenomena kecurangan pada PT Dana Syariah Indonesia (DSI) melalui pisau analisis Fraud Triangle milik Donald R. Cressey (1953). Fenomena penyimpangan di PT Dana Syariah Indonesia (DSI) tercatat sebagai skandal keuangan paling masif pada sektor P2P lending berbasis syariah di tanah air. Sepanjang tahun 2018 hingga 2025, kerugian finansial yang ditimbulkan diestimasi menyentuh Rp2,4 triliun dengan total korban mencapai lebih dari 15.000 pemberi dana. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif dengan pendekatan studi kasus. Data dikumpulkan melalui studi dokumentasi dari berbagai sumber, meliputi laporan resmi OJK, siaran pers Bareskrim Polri, temuan PPATK, serta publikasi berita terverifikasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ketiga elemen Fraud Triangle terbukti hadir dalam kasus DSI: (1) Tekanan (pressure) berupa kebutuhan likuiditas internal dan target imbal hasil tinggi 16–18% per tahun yang tidak realistis; (2) Kesempatan (opportunity) berupa lemahnya pengawasan OJK terhadap fintech syariah, ketiadaan audit independen yang efektif, dan eksploitasi kepercayaan berbasis label syariah; serta (3) Rasionalisasi (rationalization) berupa pembenaran pelaku dengan menggunakan argumen ekonomi makro dan penyalahgunaan nilai-nilai syariah sebagai perisai. Penelitian ini juga mengintegrasikan perspektif akuntansi forensik sebagai alat deteksi dan pencegahan fraud. Temuan penelitian ini diharapkan menjadi kontribusi ilmiah bagi penguatan regulasi, pengawasan fintech syariah, serta literasi keuangan masyarakat.

This study aims to analyze the impact of middlemen on the price of Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) of oil palm received by farmers in Lambur I Village, Tanjung Jabung Timur Regency, from a sharia economic perspective. This study also examines the FFB marketing patterns carried out by farmers and the factors that influence farmers in choosing where to sell their harvest. The method used is a qualitative approach with a case study research type. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation to understand FFB marketing practices and the socio-economic relationships between farmers and middlemen. The results show that FFB marketing in Lambur I Village is carried out through three main channels: middlemen, the Marketing Chain of Trust (RAM), and palm oil processing factories. Most farmers choose to sell FFB to middlemen because the transaction process is easier, payments are fast, and transportation costs are not required. In addition, urgent financial needs, limited transportation facilities, and long-standing socio-economic relationships also influence farmers' dependence on middlemen. In practice, middlemen play a dominant role in determining prices, deducting approximately Rp 250–Rp 300 per kilogram from the factory price. From a sharia economic perspective, marketing practices through middlemen are essentially permissible as long as they are carried out with mutual consent and do not contain elements of usury, gharar, or injustice. However, the dominance of middlemen in determining prices indicates a bargaining imbalance that could potentially harm farmers, thus not fully reflecting the principle of justice in sharia economics

This research aims to analyze the role and impact of PT Batujaya Bersama Sejahtera (PT BBS) on the socio-economic conditions of the community in Walandano Village, Balaesang Tanjung District. The background of this study is driven by the massive expansion of the mining industry in Central Sulawesi, which triggers a structural shift from traditional agriculture to an industrial economy. This study employs a qualitative method with data collection techniques including in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. The findings indicate that PT BBS plays a significant role in local economic development by providing employment opportunities, increasing household income, and improving public infrastructure such as roads and jetties. However, the study also identifies social disruptions, including public protests regarding land issues and environmental concerns like dust and noise pollution. The implications of this research suggest that the company must strengthen its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs by focusing on sustainable community empowerment and more transparent communication to mitigate social risks. These findings contribute to the literature on regional economic development and social change in coastal mining areas.

The 2025 Real Work Lectures use the Berdampak model (Real Work Lectures based on Community Impactful). The theme of our group's Community Service Program is the problem of household waste management in Bakalan Village, Gondang District, Mojokerto Regency, which requires proper handling. Open burning of waste causes air pollution and other adverse effects. In an effort to overcome this problem, KKN students have initiated the use of used barrels as a place to burn waste with minimal smoke. This program includes observation and socialization related to innovative technology in waste management. Through this activity, the community is introduced to the use of trash cans that reduce smoke pollution and produce briquettes as an alternative fuel from combustion residues. The program results show an increase in community awareness of waste management and the potential for reducing negative environmental impacts. This innovation opens up opportunities for the community to become a model of independent and sustainable waste management, which can be applied in other villages.

The presence of BUMDes is an important factor in improving the economy and community independence, such as through the village savings and loan program. However, the lack of socialization and inaccurate targeting of program recipients are problems that have implications for BUMDes capital turnover. This study aims to explain the optimization of the savings and loan program in BUMDes in realizing the economic independence of the community of Kalimanah Kulon Village, Kalimanah District, Purbalingga Regency. This study uses a qualitative case-study approach. Data were obtained through interviews, observations, and document analysis. The results show that the BUMDes savings and loan program is able to increase village income and community welfare, although it is still not optimal. In its implementation, there are several obstacles that have the potential to hinder the implementation of this program, including the issue of inadequate human resources, minimal business planning and innovation, and low community participation in loan repayment and BUMDes business management. Therefore, adequate planning by the village government to increase the capacity of managers and community participation, as well as strengthening institutions and collaboration with relevant stakeholders in BUMDes business management are important prerequisites for optimal program achievement. In addition, intensive and ongoing outreach to all levels of society regarding BUMDes programs is needed to ensure BUMDes can more optimally fulfill their role in improving village welfare and independence.

Transformasi digital menuntut organisasi untuk meningkatkan kompetensi karyawan melalui program pelatihan, namun tingkat partisipasi karyawan sering kali masih rendah meskipun fasilitas telah tersedia secara memadai. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran Nudge Theory sebagai strategi dalam memengaruhi perilaku karyawan terhadap partisipasi program pelatihan, dengan fokus pada penerapan Choice Architecture dalam konteks manajemen sumber daya manusia. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kajian literatur dengan strategi integrative review yang mengkaji berbagai publikasi ilmiah bereputasi terkait Behavioral Economics, human resource development, dan pembelajaran karyawan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa intervensi berbasis nudge, seperti pengaturan default, penyederhanaan pilihan, dan penggunaan pengingat kontekstual, secara konsisten mampu meningkatkan partisipasi pelatihan karyawan secara sukarela. Selain itu, efektivitas intervensi tersebut dipengaruhi oleh integrasi dengan faktor motivasi intrinsik yang selaras dengan prinsip Self-Determination Theory. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi konseptual berupa kerangka integratif yang menggabungkan perspektif Behavioral Economics dan human resource development, serta menawarkan implikasi praktis bagi HR leaders dalam merancang strategi pembelajaran yang lebih efektif, adaptif, dan berbasis perilaku.

This study aims to analyze the factors that influence economic growth. Economic growth is an important indicator used to measure the success of a country's development because it reflects the increasing capacity of an economy to produce goods and services. This research uses a descriptive approach by examining several factors affecting economic growth, including investment, labor, unemployment, and international trade. The results show that investment plays a significant role in increasing production capacity and encouraging the development of industry and infrastructure. Labor also contributes to economic productivity through the production of goods and services. On the other hand, a high unemployment rate can hinder economic growth because part of the labor force is not absorbed into productive activities. In addition, international trade through export and import activities can support economic growth by expanding markets for domestic products and fulfilling the need for raw materials and technology in the production process. Therefore, economic development policies need to consider these factors to achieve sustainable economic growth and improve public welfare

This study examines the impact of MBKM, campus culture, and learning achievement on work readiness in Islamic financial institutions, specifically for students from the Faculty of Islamic Economics and Business at UIN Datokarama Palu, Class of 2022. Using a quantitative approach with descriptive research design, the study aims to analyze how these factors influence students' preparedness for work in the industry. The findings show that MBKM, campus culture, and learning achievement each have a positive and significant effect on work readiness. MBKM, with its emphasis on direct industrial experience, has the strongest impact, while campus culture shapes students' character and work ethics. Learning achievement reflects academic competencies essential for entering the workforce. The combined influence of these three factors was proven to significantly impact work readiness, with an F-value of 5.393, greater than the F-table value of 2.72. This demonstrates that work readiness stems from a combination of practical experience, acceptance of campus values, and academic success, all of which should be developed continuously.
