Periodic review mechanisms, provisions in contracts that formally require parties to meet at particular intervals to review the terms of the contract or license and consider whether circumstances have changed since the parties' initial agreement, are a mechanism that may smooth the process of dealing with inevitable changes in circumstances over the long term of extractive industries contracts. This briefing note looks at the use of such mechanisms, through reviewing existing extractive industry agreements, and considers how the requirements have been expressed to-date and their role as a tool to maintain the relationship between the parties. The Brief examines issues that can arise in practice and suggests a new approach to the drafting of these mechanisms.

Blockchain technology has recently become the go-to solution for companies and industries that seek to enhance value chain traceability of their products, and transparency in their supply chains. Because of these benefits, it's been proposed for monitoring environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance and compliance in industries that have weak regulatory and formal structures. The cobalt mining industry especially in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the world's biggest producer of cobalt ore used in the manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries, is one such environment that's characterized by conflict, and serious human rights abuses. The key actors in the cobalt supply chain, therefore, face the tradeoff involving maintaining long-term supply versus reducing the risks associated with cobalt sourced from locations with poor environmental and human rights records. Most of such problems emerge from Artisanal and small-scale mining. This paper presents an attempt to tightly link existing blockchain technology frameworks in the cobalt industry with ESG performance of companies to enable them to audit the chain of custody journeys for their components and ultimately sustainability performance. We present a responsible sourcing framework to connect blockchain source data needs to ESG metrics to help companies build interoperable but understandable blockchain architectures. ; publishedVersion

As the pioneer in the industrial mineral industry in Indonesia, PT. XYZ had experienced rapid growth and enjoy the market leader position; however, the trend shows that the sales volume recently decreases as an impact of tight competition and regulation control from the government.

Este artículo pretende participar en los debate generados en torno a las industrias de extracción de minerales e hidrocarburos, que se han convertido en los últimos tiempos en objeto de interés para un creciente número de académicos en el ámbito de las ciencias sociales, así como para organizaciones de defensa del medio ambiente y de derechos humanos, y para las instituciones internacionales del desarrollo. El argumento principal del trabajo es que muchos de los análisis que se realizan sobre las implicaciones políticas y sociales de las actividades extractivas pueden agruparse en tres perspectivas, cada una de las cuales hace énfasis en dimensiones diferentes del fenómeno: las instituciones del estado, las dinámicas rentistas, o la estructura económica internacional. Se analizarán las potencialidades y especialmente las limitaciones de todas ellas, y se insistirá en la necesidad de un acercamiento que atienda a las particularidades y trayectorias históricas concretas de los lugares de producción, así como a las dimensiones transnacionales que siempre implican estos procesos ; This essay tries to participate in the debate about the extractive hydrocarbon and minerals industries, which in the last years has become an interesting topic for an increasing number of academicians in the social science field as well as for environment and human rights organizations and for the international organizations focused on development. The main point of this paper is that many of the analysis about the political and social implications of the extractive activities can be gathered in three perspectives, and each one of them insists in different dimensions of the phenomenon: the state institutions, the rentier dynamics or the international economic structure. We will analyze the potentials and specially the limitations of all of them and we will insist on the need of an approach that keeps an eye on the special features and concrete historic paths of the production places and also on the transnational dimensions always implied in the processes

Abstrak - Faktor yang mempengaruhi mengapa negara sangat bergantung dengan lautan adalah kurang lebih 70% wilayah di dunia adalah laut. Kedua 90% jalur perdagangan menggunakan transportasi laut. Ketiga, pada garis pantai banyak terdapat kota dan pemukiman besar dalam radius 200 km. keempat Hukum internasional memberikan kebebasan untuk mengelola sumber daya laut. Jika Indonesia tidak segera mambangun kemampuan sea power akan mengakibatkan ketidakmampuan negara untuk menjaga dan mengendalikan perairan laut Indonesia, seperti ancaman sengketa perbatasan laut, gangguan keamanan laut, pelanggaran hukum laut, perebutan sumber daya alam dan mineral. Salah satu upaya meningkatkan pertahanan dan keamanan dilaut membutuhkan industri perkapalan yang mandiri untuk memenuhi kebutuhan Alutsista matra laut. Pertanyaan penelitian (1) Bagaimana hubungan kerjasama industri perkapalan dan industri pendukung perkapalan. (2) Bagaimana konsep industri perkapalan nasional untuk meningkatkan daya saing dalam mendukung keamanan maritim Indonesia. Teori dan konsep penelitian menggunakan Teori Daya Saing, Teori Pemberdayaan, Konsep Maritime Security Sector Reform dan Konsep Klaster Industri Perkapalan. Metodologi penelitian kualitatif dengan metode deskriktif. Hasil Penelitian, (1) Kerjasama industri perkapalan dan industri pendukung perkapalan memerlukan perubahan regulasi terkait pengelolaan manajemen industri perkapalan. Perubahan tersebut untuk mengatasi permasalahan yang dihadapi oleh pemerintah dan produsen industri perkapalan. Dalam Undang-undang Nomor 16 Tahun 2012 Tentang Industri Pertahanan dan Perpres. Komite Kebijakan Industri Pertahanan, ditekankan pemanfaatan industri nasional dalam pemenuhan Alutsista. Sehingga memerlukan pengelolaan menejemen industri pertahanan dengan industri pendukung lainnya. (2) Konsep pengembangan klaster terbagi dua berdasarkan jenis kepemilikannya yaitu industri swasta dengan konsep pengeloalan klaster industri perkapalan. Sedangkan industri BUMN menggunakan konsep holding industri National Shipbuilding and Heavy Indrustries.Kata Kunci : Industri Perkapalan, Klaster Industri Perkapalan, Keamanan Maritim. Abstract - The factor that affects why the country depends heavily on the oceans is that approximately 70% of the world's territory is the sea. Second, 90% of trade routes use sea transportation. Third, on the coastline there are many cities and large settlements within a 200 km radius. the four international Laws provide freedom to manage marine resources. If Indonesia does not immediately develop the ability of sea power will result in the inability of the state to maintain and control the marine waters of Indonesia, such as the threat of sea border disputes, maritime security disturbances, violations of the law of the sea, the seizure of natural resources and minerals. One effort to improve the defense and security of the sea requires an independent shipping industry to meet the needs of marine Alutsista. Research Questions (1) What is the relationship of shipbuilding industry and shipping support industry. (2) What is the concept of the national shipping industry to enhance competitiveness in supporting Indonesian maritime security. Theory and concept of research using Competitiveness Theory, Empowerment Theory, Maritime Security Sector Reform Concept and Concept of Cluster of Shipping Industry. Qualitative research methodology with descriptive method. Research Result, (1) Shipbuilding industry cooperation and shipping support industry require regulation change related to management of shipping industry management. The change is to address the problems faced by the government and shipping industry manufacturers. In Undang-undang No. 16 of 2012 on Defense Industry and Perpres. Defense Industry Policy Committee, emphasized the utilization of national industry in the fulfillment of Alutsista. So it requires management of defense industry management with other supporting industries. (2) Cluster development concept is divided into two types based on the type of ownership that is private industry with the concept of cluster of shipping industry. While the state-owned industry uses the concept of industrial holding National Shipbuilding and Heavy Industries.Keywords: Shipbuilding Industry, Shipbuilding Industry Cluster, National Shipbuilding and Heavy Industries, and Maritime Security
