BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Latar Belakang Masalah Olahraga
BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Latar Belakang Masalah Olahraga bulutangkis di Indonesia sudah dikenal sejak lama oleh masyarakat Indonesia bahkan mancanegara. Hal ini ditandai dengan munculnya pemain- pemain Indonesia dalam kejuaraan-kejuaraan tingkat dunia, baik dalam nomor tunggal putra, tunggal putri, ganda putra, ganda putri, dan ganda campuran. Menurut Wikipedia, kejayaan Indonesia diawali dengan munculnya juara-juara dunia pada multi event olympiade, diawali oleh Alan Budikusuma dan Susi Susanti (Tahun 1992), Rexy Mainaky dan Ricky Subagja (Tahun 1996), Toni Gunawan dan Candra Wijaya (Tahun 2000), Taufik Hidayat (Tahun 2004), dan terakhir Markis Kido dan Hendra Setiawan (Tahun 2008). Sejak saat itulah pemain-pemain Indonesia sangat disegani oleh pemain- pemain dari luar negeri sehingga olahraga bulutangkis merupakan salah satu cabang olahraga yang mampu membawa nama harum bangsa Indonesia di kancah dunia, karena prestasi olahraga bulutangkis yang mendunia, maka prestasi yang diraih tersebut harus terus dipertahankan dan dikembangkan oleh bangsa Indonesia untuk masa sekarang dan masa yang akan datang. Tetapi pada kenyataannya, peraih medali emas multi event olympiade khususnya dalam nomor tunggal putri semakin menurun dan sampai saat ini tidak pernah ada pemain nomor tunggal putri Indonesia yang menyumbangkan medali emas pada kejuaraan tersebut, terkecuali Susi Susanti pada multi event olympiade Barcelona di Spanyol tahun 1992. Pada masa ini dan di masa yang akan datang akan terjadi persaingan yang sangat ketat antar pemain dan munculnya juara-juara baru yang menggeser juara- juara lama. Persaingan tersebut terjadi dikarenakan adanya keinginan untuk mendapatkan pengakuan dari negara-negara lain. Dalam persaingan yang sangat ketat ini maka pelatih dituntut untuk bekerja keras membina pemainnya dengan tujuan akhir tercipta seorang pemain dunia yang berprestasi dalam cabang olahraga yang dibinanya. -
Maldives: Extremism and Terrorism
Maldives: Extremism and Terrorism On May 6, 2021, an improvised explosive device (IED) detonated outside of the Malé home of former President Mohamed Nasheed. Nasheed and four others, including a British national, were injured in the attack. On May 7, Maldivian police reported that Islamic extremists were responsible for the attack. The police suspect four individuals were behind the attack, having arrested three of the four suspects by May 9. Nasheed, the first democratically elected president of the Maldives and who is current the speaker of Parliament, has been an outspoken critic of religious extremism. Investigators have not yet determined which group was responsible for the attack. (Sources: Associated Press, Associated Press, Al Jazeera) On April 20, 2020, ISIS published a letter in their third issue of Voice of Hind magazine calling on Maldivians to join the jihad and to carry out extremist acts in the Maldives and India. The letter was in response to an ISIS-claimed attack on the Mahibadhoo harbor a few days prior. (Sources: Small Wars Journal, Middle East Media Research Institute) On April 17, 2020, five bombs detonated at Mahibadhoo harbor, destroying a sea ambulance, four speedboats, and two dinghies. ISIS quickly claimed responsibility for the attack via its weekly Arabic-language newsletter, al-Naba, claiming the boats belonged to the “apostate Maldivian Government and its loyalists.” The attack was the first to be carried out by ISIS in the Maldives. Earlier this year on February 4, a group of ISIS- inspired assailants stabbed and injured three foreign nationals near the Hulhumale Redbull Park Fustal Ground in North Male Atoll. -

United Nations S/2020/70 Security Council Distr.: General 27 January 2020 Original: English Letter dated 27 January 2020 from the Panel of Experts on Yemen addressed to the President of the Security Council The members of the Panel of Experts on Yemen have the honour to transmit herewith the final report of the Panel, prepared in accordance with paragraph 6 of resolution 2456 (2019). The report was provided to the Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolution 2140 (2014) on 27 December 2019 and was considered by the Committee on 10 January 2020. We would appreciate it if the present letter and the report were brought to the attention of the members of the Security Council and issued as a document of the Council. (Signed) Dakshinie Ruwanthika Gunaratne Coordinator Panel of Experts on Yemen (Signed) Ahmed Himmiche Expert (Signed) Henry Thompson Expert (Signed) Marie-Louise Tougas Expert (Signed) Wolf-Christian Paes Expert 19-22391 (E) 070220 *1922391* S/2020/70 Final report of the Panel of Experts on Yemen Summary After more than five years of conflict, the humanitarian crisis in Yemen continues. The country’s many conflicts are interconnected and can no longer be separated by clear divisions between external and internal actors and events. Throughout 2019, the Houthis and the Government of Yemen made little headway towards either a political settlement or a conclusive military victory. In a continuation from 2018, the belligerents continued to practice economic warfare: using economic obstruction and financial tools as weapons to starve opponents of funds or materials. Profiteering from the conflict is endemic. -

ISBN: 978-602-437-207-1 BULU TANGKIS-INDONESIA Sambutan Sikap hidup pragmatis pada sebagian besar masyarakat Indonesia dewasa ini mengakibatkan terkikisnya nilai-nilai luhur budaya bangsa. Demikian halnya dengan budaya kekerasan dan anarkisme sosial turut memperparah kondisi sosial budaya bangsa Indonesia. Nilai kearifan lokal yang santun, ramah, saling menghormati, arif, bijaksana, dan religius seakan terkikis dan tereduksi gaya hidup instan dan modern. Masyarakat sangat mudah tersulut emosinya, pemarah, brutal, dan kasar tanpa mampu mengendalikan diri. Fenomena itu dapat menjadi representasi melemahnya karakter bangsa yang terkenal ramah, santun, toleran, serta berbudi pekerti luhur dan mulia. Sebagai bangsa yang beradab dan bermartabat, situasi yang demikian itu jelas tidak menguntungkan bagi masa depan bangsa, khususnya dalam melahirkan generasi masa depan bangsa yang cerdas cendekia, bijak bestari, terampil, berbudi pekerti luhur, berderajat mulia, berperadaban tinggi, dan senantiasa berbakti kepada Tuhan Yang Maha Esa. -
Stellvertretung As Vicarious Suffering in Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Stellvertretung as Vicarious Suffering in Dietrich Bonhoeffer This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. by Samuel Paul Randall St. Edmund’s College December 2018 Stellvertretung as Vicarious Suffering in Dietrich Bonhoeffer Abstract Stellvertretung represents a consistent and central hermeneutic for Bonhoeffer. This thesis demonstrates that, in contrast to other translations, a more precise interpretation of Bonhoeffer’s use of Stellvertretung would be ‘vicarious suffering’. For Bonhoeffer Stellvertretung as ‘vicarious suffering’ illuminates not only the action of God in Christ for the sins of the world, but also Christian discipleship as participation in Christ’s suffering for others; to be as Christ: Schuldübernahme. In this understanding of Stellvertretung as vicarious suffering Bonhoeffer demonstrates independence from his Protestant (Lutheran) heritage and reflects an interpretation that bears comparison with broader ecumenical understanding. This study of Bonhoeffer’s writings draws attention to Bonhoeffer’s critical affection towards Catholicism and highlights the theological importance of vicarious suffering during a period of renewal in Catholic theology, popular piety and fictional literature. Although Bonhoeffer references fictional literature in his writings, and indicates its importance in ethical and theological discussion, there has been little attempt to analyse or consider its contribution to Bonhoeffer’s theology. This thesis fills this lacuna in its consideration of the reception by Bonhoeffer of the writings of Georges Bernanos, Reinhold Schneider and Fyodor Dostoevsky. Each of these writers features vicarious suffering, or its conceptual equivalent, as an important motif. According to Bonhoeffer Christian discipleship is the action of vicarious suffering (Stellvertretung) and of Verantwortung (responsibility) in love for others and of taking upon oneself the Schuld that burdens the world. -

House of Lords Library: Gillray Collection
Library: Special Collections House of Lords Library: Gillray Collection The House of Lords Library Gillray collection was acquired in 1899 as a bequest from Sir William Augustus Fraser (1826–1898). The collection consists of eleven folio volumes, retaining Fraser’s fine bindings: half red morocco with elaborate gold tooling on the spines. Ownership bookplates on the verso of the front boards show Fraser’s coat of arms and some of the prints bear his “cinquefoil in sunburst” collector’s mark. The volumes are made up of leaves of blue paper, on to which the prints are pasted. Perhaps surprisingly, given the age of the paper and adhesive, there is no evident damage to the prints. Due to the prints being stored within volumes, light damage has been minimised and the colour is still very vibrant. The collection includes a few caricatures by other artists (such as Thomas Rowlandson) but the majority are by Gillray. It is possible that the prints by other artists were mistakenly attributed to Gillray by Fraser. Where Fraser lacked a particular print he pasted a marker at the relevant chronological point in the volume, noting the work he still sought. These markers have been retained in the collection and are listed in the Catalogue. The collection includes some early states of prints, such as Britania in French Stays and a few prints that are not held in the British Museum’s extensive collection. For example, Grattan Addresses the Mob is listed in Dorothy George’s Catalogue as part of the House of Lords Library’s collection only.1 Volume I includes a mezzotint portrait of the author by Charles Turner, and two manuscript letters written by Gillray; one undated and addressed to the artist Benjamin West; the other dated 1797 and addressed to the publisher John Wright.
