During contemporary political disruptions, this study comprehensively examines transformative dynamics in public administration in Indonesia. We delve into the complex interplay of agile governance, a responsive and adaptive governance model navigating political uncertainties, and the transformative forces of digital transformation, orchestrating a symphony of technological advancements reshaping the very fabric of governance. Furthermore, the study investigates inclusive decision-making, elucidating the collaborative engagement between citizens and policymakers in shaping governance strategies. The research then centers on the culmination of these dynamics, emphasizing citizen satisfaction as a pivotal metric for assessing the success of governance initiatives. Operating as a moderator, political stability guides the overall effectiveness of governance practices. Following a stratified sampling technique, data were collected from 490 followers of Indonesian public sector social networking sites from July 2023 to November 2023. The findings reveal that agile governance, digital transformation, and inclusive decision-making positively contribute to citizen satisfaction with public services, with political stability moderating these relationships, providing empirical insights into the dynamics of contemporary public administration. The scholarly significance lies in providing empirical insights into the specific context of Indonesia, contributing to the broader discourse on effective governance strategies in the face of political disruptions.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 Pandemic brought about a significant transformation in the education landscape, leading to the widespread adoption of distance education as the primary mode of learning. Due to legal restrictions imposed, students were unable to attend school and study in traditional settings such as classrooms. Instead, they had to remain at home with their parents, resulting in a greater need for parental involvement in their children's education. This involvement took on diverse forms and held various meanings. The objectives of this study were to describe the attitudes and perceptions of parents towards distance learning and to examine the extent and nature of parental involvement. The research employed a mixed-method design, with 461 Arab and Jewish parents participating by completing a structured questionnaire, while an additional 139 parents took part in semi-structured interviews. The research findings revealed a prevalent negative attitude towards distance learning, as experienced during the COVID-19 period, with parents expressing dissatisfaction and disappointment regarding its implementation. While some parents reported a high degree of involvement, others chose not to be involved at all. The study also highlighted various challenges encountered by parents, including didactic-pedagogical, technological, economic, and other difficulties. Additionally, some parents exhibited interventionist behavior, disrupting Zoom classroom meetings by making comments, expressing reservations, or offering suggestions. On a positive note, a positive relationship was identified between parents' involvement and their attitudes towards distance learning. The research findings have valuable implications for the education system, as they shed light on the attitudes, perceptions, and difficulties surrounding distance learning. These insights can help identify the barriers that hinder parental involvement in their children's learning processes, thereby reducing its effectiveness. By understanding these challenges, the education system can strive to find methods and solutions to enhance the learning process for students and increase parental involvement.

Much academic interest has been given to the relationship of Islam with extremism, with such relationship being too often articulated in terms of religiosity as the main predictive factor, and a language of normativity positing that extremism is the negative manifestation and excess of Muslim discourses. This systematic review attempts to account for such normative assumptions by looking at the predictive ability of psychosocial and environmental factors related to social identity processes, in addition to the predictive ability of religiosity in accounting for Islamic extremism. Two search rounds were performed using several databases for peer reviewed English language articles, of all types of research designs, between 2012 and 2023 defining Islamic or Muslim extremism as a deviation from the dominant Eurocentric normative definition and delineating its predictors. The review revealed a differing account regarding the roots of Muslim extremism in which exclusion from the modern world-system—framed in terms of perceived threat, deprivation, discrimination, and oppression—is highlighted, while religiosity had predominantly insignificant effects. The paper calls for a reconsideration of extremism among Muslims away from the normative paradigm set forth by the modern world-system.

This study examined the effect of the new teaching method applied in the Kazakh literature course on students' cultural identity and sensitivity, patriotic consciousness, and achievement. In this context, the experimental group experienced innovative teaching methods based on the works of Abish Kekilbayev. This quasi-experimental study examined the effects of educational activities on achievement, social consciousness, citizenship, cultural identity, and sensitivity based on the works of Abish Kekilbayev, a leading Kazakhstania writer, among second-year university students. The experimental group underwent the new teaching method, while the control group followed the activities outlined in the current Kazakh literature textbooks. The effectiveness of the method was assessed through post-test applications. The results indicated significant differences in students’ academic achievement, citizenship, social consciousness, cultural identity, and sensitivity between the experimental and control groups, highlighting the substantial impact of the new method. Similar approaches can be applied to students at various educational levels. Additionally, a comprehensive citizenship and identity education program could be developed by closely examining the works of Abish Kekilbayev and other similar authors in detail.

Nepotism has long been one of the global problems of modern society. In many countries, including the post-Soviet space, this phenomenon is firmly historically rooted. Granting privileges to relatives or friends, regardless of their professional qualities, destroys the institutional foundations of the state, causing significant harm to public administration and the economy. The purpose of the study is to examine the influence of cultural and ethnographic factors in form of socio-demographic factors and the level of acceptability of corruption on the development of nepotism against the background of corruption as an aggregate indicator of its manifestation. The research methodology was based on studying the socio-economic development indicators of 12 countries of the former Soviet Union according to the official data presented by the World Bank and the Transparency International organization. This research holds the view that the Corruption Perceptions Index can serve as an indirect indicator of the level of nepotism in the post-Soviet space. A study based on a regression model of the correlation of the described values of a quantitative model for assessing the level of penetration of nepotism in developing countries, including post-Soviet ones. The practical application of the results may make it possible to more deeply assess the features of the development of society and the state on the basis of generally recognized international indicators and available demographic data.

This study delves into the ecological factors that predict bicultural stress among bicultural adult Canadians while uncovering common themes surrounding their bicultural identity and developmental journey. A sample of bicultural Canadians (N = 147; 88% female, Mage = 20.72) participated in an online survey consisting of standardized self-report measures and open-ended inquiries about their bicultural experience. The study identified factors contributing to current levels of bicultural stress through regression analysis. Additionally, thematic analysis was conducted to explore participants’ narratives about their bicultural experiences. Participants were of diverse racial/ethnic Canadian backgrounds (Middle Eastern, n = 50; East and Southeast Asian, n = 22; South Asian, n = 27; Black, n = 21; multiple ethnicities, n = 22; Latin, n = 5). The regression results demonstrated that ethnic identity, family cultural socialization towards heritage culture, perceived discrimination, and generational status contributed to feelings of bicultural stress. Thematic analysis revealed a developmental trajectory encompassing participants’ realization of their bicultural identity, navigating bicultural stress, and cultivating an appreciation for their dual cultures. Findings suggest that bicultural individuals’ interactions with their social environment may develop their bicultural identity towards more positive outcomes as they approach adulthood.
