This study investigates the strategic strengthening of the rambak cracker industry as an instrument for local economic development in Penanggulan Village, Pegandon District, Kendal Regency. Rural agro-processing enterprises have increasingly been recognized as territorially embedded production units capable of generating value-added outputs and absorbing surplus labor within localized economic systems. Field-based empirical observations reveal that rambak production in the village operates through household-managed processing systems characterized by traditional production techniques, informal managerial practices, and limited digital marketing adoption despite contributing significantly to community income generation. Data obtained from expert respondents were analyzed using the Analytical Hierarchy Process to identify strategic priority determinants influencing industrial competitiveness and sustainability. The results indicate that product innovation and quality improvement constitute the primary strategic priority, followed by digital marketing development and institutional partnership strengthening, while production capacity expansion remains comparatively less influential in enhancing market competitiveness. These findings suggest that adaptive innovation and digitally enabled commercialization pathways function as critical mechanisms for improving value-chain integration and expanding market accessibility among rural food-processing industries. Strengthening innovation ecosystems within the rambak sector may therefore contribute to employment creation, income diversification, and sustainable community-based economic transformation in rural production clusters.

This study explores how Generation Z constructs work values and meaning in modern organizations shaped by digitalization and social transformation. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach under a social constructivist paradigm, the research investigates the lived experiences of young professionals in the digital, creative, and startup sectors. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and non-participant observation and analyzed using thematic analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006; Moustakas, 1994). Findings show that Generation Z defines work through three interrelated dimensions: (1) intrinsic motivation grounded in personal purpose and self-expression, (2) redefined productivity emphasizing creativity and emotional balance rather than quantitative output, and (3) job satisfaction derived from inclusive culture and adaptive leadership. These results support Self-Determination Theory (Deci & Ryan, 2000) and Social Constructionism (Berger & Luckmann, 1966), showing that work meaning is socially constructed rather than objectively given. Overall, the study concludes that for Generation Z, work represents not merely economic activity but a medium for identity, contribution, and personal growth, urging organizations to embrace meaning-centered and value-driven leadership to enhance engagement and fulfillment.

This shows that the price and productivity variables together have a significant influence on the welfare of farmers in Andabia Village, Anggaberi District, Konawe Regency.

This study aims to understand how accounting functions as a social construction in shaping the meaning of transparency and responsibility in the modern business world. Accounting has long been viewed as a technical, neutral, and objective system; however, both financial and non-financial reporting practices also reflect the values, ideologies, and moral consciousness embedded within organizations. Using a qualitative interpretive approach within the framework of social constructivism (Berger & Luckmann, 1966), this study explores the meanings constructed by accounting practitioners through social interactions, organizational culture, and reporting policies. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and document analysis of corporate reports, and were analyzed using interpretative thematic analysis. The results reveal that transparency and responsibility are not merely formal obligations but the outcomes of social processes involving the externalization of values by leaders, the objectivation of those values through reporting systems, and their internalization within individual moral awareness. In this context, accounting functions as a social language that reflects organizational morality, legitimacy, and identity. Organizations with participatory and reflective cultures are found to develop more authentic transparency, while bureaucratic structures tend to produce symbolic transparency. Theoretically, this study contributes to the discourse of critical accounting by asserting that accounting numbers and reports are socially constructed artifacts imbued with values. Practically, the findings highlight the importance of ethical leadership, reflective culture, and social dialogue as foundational elements for implementing authentic transparency and sustainable corporate responsibility.

The development of e-commerce and social commerce has driven significant changes in student shopping behaviour, including at FEB UNDARIS. Ease of access, digital promotions, and the influence of social media have led students to shop online more frequently, even impulsively. This study aims to analyse how attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control interact in shaping students' online shopping behaviour using the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) framework. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with in-depth interviews with ten students who actively shop online. The data were analysed to understand the experiences, perceptions, and social factors that influence their decisions in digital transactions. The results show that positive attitudes towards efficiency and promotions, social pressure from friends and influencers, and high perceived behavioural control due to technological convenience work simultaneously to reinforce online shopping intentions and actions. These three TPB components support each other and trigger increasingly impulsive consumption patterns in the digital environment.

This study discusses the phenomenon of digital entrepreneurship in the era of global climate awareness, focusing on the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) ethics, sustainable technology, and green innovation. The main issues raised are the fragmentation of analysis between digital business ethics, green economic opportunities, and technological challenges such as greenwashing, high AI energy consumption, and the digital divide. The purpose of this study is to formulate an interdisciplinary framework that combines ethical, technological, and sustainability dimensions to strengthen the role of digital entrepreneurs in achieving low-carbon development. The methods used include critical literature analysis, bibliometrics of 200 publications (2018-2025) using VOSviewer, and fuzzy logic-based simulations using the UNESCO AI ethics framework (2021) and the sustainable business model of Bocken et al. (2014). The results show four main research clusters: AI for Sustainable Innovation, Ethical Digital Business, Blockchain for Green Supply Chain, and Circular Digital Economy. The application of AI ethics increases the efficiency of green business decisions by up to 20%, consumer trust by 17%, and MSME participation by 14%. The synthesis of findings confirms that AI ethics acts as a conceptual mediator that strengthens the link between technological innovation and sustainability. In conclusion, ethical digital entrepreneurship has great potential as a driving force for Indonesia's green economy, but it requires digital ethics audit policies and the adoption of low-carbon technologies to address ethical and environmental risks in the AI era.

The intersection between digital transformation and the halal economy has created new pathways for sustainable global development. This study explores how the Halal Digital Ecosystem (HDE)—an integrated network of producers, certifiers, regulators, and consumers—contributes to sustainable growth by aligning digital innovation with Islamic ethical principles. Employing a mixed-method explanatory sequential design, the research combines quantitative analysis using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM–PLS) with qualitative interviews involving policymakers, halal entrepreneurs, and certification authorities from Indonesia, Malaysia, and GCC countries. The findings reveal that digital infrastructure readiness and certification transparency significantly influence sustainable growth, while innovation capability acts as a mediating factor that strengthens the relationship between digitalization and sustainability outcomes. Qualitative insights highlight persistent challenges, including fragmented cross-border governance, limited digital literacy among halal SMEs, and the absence of harmonized certification standards. These barriers indicate that achieving sustainability requires not only technological advancement but also ethical and institutional alignment based on maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah. The study introduces the Halal Digital Ecosystem–Sustainability (HDE–S) Framework, providing both theoretical and practical contributions to the literature on sustainable digital economies. Policy implications emphasize the need for integrated halal digital governance, capacity building, and regional collaboration to enhance competitiveness, inclusivity, and ethical compliance in the global halal market.

This study aims to investigate the empirical impact of population size and unemployment rates on economic growth in Central Kalimantan Province. The research focuses on the regional context of Central Kalimantan, utilizing a longitudinal dataset covering the eleven-year period from 2013 to 2024. To achieve the research objectives, the study employs quantitative analysis through the SPSS software package, utilizing multiple linear regression as the primary analytical tool to examine the relationship between the dependent variable (economic growth) and the independent variables (population and unemployment). The findings of the analysis reveal a divergent impact between the two independent variables. The results indicate that the population has a significant and positive influence on economic growth in Central Kalimantan during the 2013-2024 period, suggesting that demographic factors play a crucial role in regional expansion. Conversely, the unemployment rate was found to have no significant effect on economic growth within the same timeframe. Furthermore, the study conducted a comprehensive suite of classical assumption tests to ensure the validity and reliability of the statistical model. The results of these diagnostics confirm that the regression model adheres to the assumption of normality, shows no evidence of multicollinearity among the variables, and is free from symptoms of heteroscedasticity. Additionally, the analysis concludes that the model does not exhibit any issues related to autocorrelation. Consequently, the regression model is deemed statistically robust and appropriate for providing an accurate representation of the economic dynamics in Central Kalimantan.

This study examines the influence of good governance principles on village fund utilization effectiveness in Indonesia. Using a quantitative approach with Structural Equation Modeling - Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS), we analyze data from 385 village officials across five provinces in Indonesia. The research integrates stewardship theory and agency theory to explain how transparency, accountability, participation, and rule of law affect village fund management performance. Results demonstrate that transparency (β=0.342, p<0.01) and accountability (β=0.287, p<0.01) significantly enhance village fund utilization effectiveness, while participation (β=0.219, p<0.05) shows moderate influence. Rule of law (β=0.156, p>0.05) does not significantly affect fund utilization, suggesting implementation challenges. The model explains 68.4% variance in village fund utilization effectiveness (R²=0.684). This study contributes to governance literature by providing empirical evidence from emerging economies and offers practical implications for policymakers to strengthen village-level financial management through enhanced transparency mechanisms and accountability systems. The findings highlight the critical role of good governance in achieving sustainable rural development goals.

The integration of green marketing into corporate strategies represents a paradigmatic shift in responding to global sustainability issues while enhancing competitiveness and socio-ecological commitment. With the rapid growth of literature in this field, a systematic analysis is required to map its conceptual evolution and strategic directions. This study presents a bibliometric analysis of global research trends in green marketing, aiming to identify the intellectual structure, thematic evolution, and knowledge development over the period 2017–2024. Using the Scopus database and the Biblioshiny and VOSviewer tools, 275 peer-reviewed articles were examined through quantitative bibliometric mapping techniques. The analysis reveals an annual publication growth rate of 15.27%, with dominant themes such as “sustainability,” “green marketing,” and “sustainable development.” Thematic mapping visualizations indicate a shift in research focus from product-related technical issues to strategic, social, and consumer behaviour dimensions. Five major thematic clusters were identified, reflecting interdisciplinary approaches encompassing digital marketing strategies, consumer behaviour, corporate social responsibility, supply chain management, and environmental ethics. These findings underscore the significance of integrating green marketing as a sustainable business strategy, not only to enhance corporate image but also to foster more environmentally responsible consumer behaviour. The study provides a conceptual foundation for future inquiries and strategic implications for business practices, affirming the role of green marketing as a catalyst for organizational transformation toward environmental and social sustainability.

This study aims to analyze the factors influencing GoPay user loyalty in Semarang. The background of this research is based on the high penetration of e-wallet services in Indonesia, which is increasingly competitive, with many service providers such as OVO, DANA, ShopeePay, and LinkAja offering various promotional programs. The research method used a quantitative approach through a survey of 120 active GoPay user respondents, then the data was analyzed using the SmartPLS application. The results showed that promotions did not significantly influence user loyalty, while perceptions of usefulness and brand image had a positive and significant influence. This indicates that user loyalty is not only built through short-term incentives, but is more determined by perceptions of service benefits and trust in the brand image. These findings emphasize the importance of companies not only relying on promotional strategies, but rather focusing more on improving service quality, feature innovation, and consistency in maintaining brand reputation. With the right strategy, GoPay is expected to maintain a loyal user base amidst the increasingly fierce e-wallet competition in Indonesia.

Environmental sustainability has become an essential approach for companies to enhance their competitive advantage and reputation. This study examines the effect of ownership structure on sustainability performance and firm value. This study uses data from state-owned enterprises listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Ownership structure is proxied by institutional ownership, management ownership, and public ownership; sustainability performance is proxied by the total economic score, environmental score, and social score; and firm value is proxied by Tobin's Q. Our results reveal that ownership structure (management ownership, institutional ownership, and public ownership) have a direct effect on firm value, but indirectly do not have an indirect effect on firm value through CSR does not mediate the relationship between management ownership and institutional ownership with firm value. The unique findings of this study indicate that CSR mediates the relationship between public ownership and firm value. Public ownership partially mediates the relationship between firm type and firm value. The implications of this study will be significant for policymakers, corporate management, academics, and investors in considering the adoption and importance of corporate environmental practices.

The food and beverage industry are generally known for its stability. Nevertheless, this sub-sector underwent fluctuations as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, one of which was in its firm value. The study investigates how firm value is affected by key organizational characteristics, including financial performance, the scale of the firm, and the rate of sales growth. A firm's value is measured by its PBV (Price to Book Value). The study's measure of financial performance is a combination of Return on Equity (ROE) and the CR, DER, and TATO ratios. This study uses a quantitative approach. The study's population is composed of F&B firms publicly traded on the Indonesia Stock Exchange throughout 2019–2023. A purposive sampling technique was used to select the sample based on predefined requirements, leading to a total of 125 samples from 25 companies. Data were processed using WarpPLS version 8.0 to evaluate the research model through model fit, structural testing, and hypothesis testing. The results show that the model meets the required fit indices and has strong explanatory power. The findings reveal that profitability (ROE) and leverage (DER) have a positive and significant effect on firm value, while liquidity (CR) and sales growth exert a negative and significant effect. On the other hand, activity ratio (TATO) and firm size do not significantly influence firm value.
