Food creates, maintains, negotiates and expresses various kinds of social identities. Yet, conceptions of food and foodways can also change to signify very different things as social changes happen. An overview of how the interplay of food, social change and identity has long interested researchers brings together anthropologists, archaeologists, area studies specialists, linguists and food policy administrators in this book to ponder over the following questions: What triggers change? What kinds of changes in food and foodways are happening? How are the changes impacting on identity politics? The discussions cross time and space to provide insights into many themes such as food and power, food and environment, food and nationalism as well as food and social policy.

Singapore, a young nation like many developed countries, faced a shortage of nurses. Attempts to resolve the workforce shortage through the employment of foreign nurses started in the mid-1980s. Over the years, workforce recruitment from traditional sources nearby, namely Malaysia and Philippines, has expanded to include nurses from countries such as People Republic of China, India, and Myanmar. Attempts have also been made to train, recruit, and retain local nurses such as improving working conditions and remunerations, raising the profile of nursing, improving career recognition and progression, and encouraging nonpracticing nurses back to the workforce. However, the institutions' and the government's attempts to ameliorate the nursing shortage were met with limited success. Even with the recruitment of foreign nurses, the shortage of workforce persists. The shortage is compounded by the three major health-care challenges confronting Singapore: (1) rapid growth in population; (2) rapid aging of the population; and (3) increasing burden of chronic diseases. As the population continues to grow and as more of the population ages, as life expectancy increases and the burden of chronic diseases increases, not only will the demand for nurses continue, but the intensity and the nursing care they require will also increase. This article describes the challenges confronting the practice of nursing in Singapore and their implications. Although these challenges are daunting, they offer nursing the unprecedented opportunities to shape health-care delivery systems and increase nursing influences everywhere across settings and along the delivery continuum.

Economic development in Indonesia is essentially building a whole person, so that it can improve people's welfare. Community welfare is one of the goals of the SDGs and is a reflection of the success of development carried out by the government, measured using the Human Development Index (HDI). Bali's HDI as a whole continues to increase, but the difference in HDI figures that is quite far between the districts / cities in Bali is an important problem to overcome. This difference shows that there is an inequality between regions. The research objectives to be achieved are: 1) to analyze the influence of the ratio gini, non-food expenditure per capita, and capital expenditure on poverty in the regency / city of Bali Province; 2) To analyze the influence of the ratio gini, non-food expenditure per capita capital expenditure and poverty on the welfare of the people in the regency / city of Bali Province; and 3) To analyze the influence of the ratio gini, non-food expenditure per capita and capital expenditure through poverty on the welfare of the people in the regency / city of Bali Province. The analysis technique uses path analysis and the results of Gini ratio research and capital expenditure have no effect on the number of poor people while non-food expenditure has a positive and significant effect. The results of testing the Gini Ratio variable on public welfare, this ratio, non-food expenditure and the number of poor people have a positive and significant effect on the welfare of society while capital expenditure has no influence.Keyword : gini ratio, HDI, number of poor people, capital expenditureJEL Classification:E65, H76

Tibu sampi waterfall is a waterfall that has the potentiality and opportunities to be developed into a tourist attraction. However, the development of this waterfall has not been optimally reached. This study aims to determine the development of Tibu Sampi Waterfall as a tourist attraction. This study uses qualitative data with data sources in the form of primary data and secondary data. Data sources are obtained through observation, interview and documentation techniques with the technique of determining individual sample selection. The results of this study indicate that there are internal and external obstacles in the development of Tibu Waterfall as a tourist attraction. The internal obstacles are divided into three, namely the limited capital owned by Gunung Salak village; lack of adequate human resources in the field of tourism; and lack of promotion in the development of tourist attractions. The external obstacle is lack of contributions from investors. Of the various obstacles faced and slowing down the development of Tibu Waterfall as a tourist attraction, the community must create several efforts including the government or related parties to provide tourism education and training to the local community; to improve tourism products; to disseminate information in the form of brochures and guidebooks; to improve structuring and infrastructure; to cooperate with investors; to make local culture an attraction for tourists; and to develope tour packages. Keywords: Study of development, tourist attraction, Gunung Salak Village, Tibu Sampi Waterfall

The high level of open unemployment in the districts/cities of Bali Province is not in line with the high minimum wage applied and the lower level of labor force participation. This study aims to analyze both the short and long term district minimum wages (UMK), gross regional domestic product (GRDP), labor force participation rates (LFPR) and education on open unemployment in all districts/cities of Bali Province for the period of 2006 to 2017. This study uses error correction model (ECM) analysis techniques. The research findings showed that in the short term the UMK and TPAK had a negative and significant effect on open unemployment; in the long run UMK, GRDP, and TPAK had a positive effect on open unemployment; the education elasticity had the greatest effect on open unemployment compared to other variables. This fact demands the Provincial Government of Bali to be more proactive in improving vocational education so that open unemployment will decrease.
