“…Experience in proposing financing by micro-entrepreneurs in this study proves that although they have some limitations, they find it easy to access Sharia financing. According to Yussuf (2017), flexibility in the Sharia financing scheme has a positive impact on the affordability of micro entrepreneurs. The test results prove that the requirements in applying for financing are sufficiently good to be fulfilled by micro entrepreneurs.…”

“…This happens because banks or creditors are avoiding facing high risks in accepting not eligible customers (Nightingale & Coad, 2014), (Lee, Sameen & Cowling, 2015), (Wardani & Pramono, 2016), and (Prijadi et al, 2020). Compared to conventional banks, the treatment of sharia banks to its customers is considered fairer because the implementation of service aspects for the welfare of the ummah is one of the objectives in sharia-based services (Yussuf, 2017). Thus, there is no discrimination in services that can violate the principles of sharia law (Shaban, Duygun and Fry, 2016).…”

“…With regards to its type of transaction, customers have alternative financing contracts that can be selected according to their ability to fulfill repayments. Yussuf, (2017) mentions that the unique features of Islamic financing are solutions in order to encourage economic growth. Various financing schemes (Hadzic and Pavlovic, 2019), (Ali, Ahmad & Kamaruddin, 2020), (Ali, Bushera & Yesuf, 2020), dan (Nugroho & Nugraha, 2020) support business development.…”

“…For micro businesses, this assessment is very strict because micro-businesses are seen as customers with high potential risks (Ali, Bushera & Yesuf, 2020) dan (Wasiuzzaman et al, 2020). This standard may be applied by conventional banks as an effort to hedge against risk if the borrower experiences default (Yussuf, 2017). As the establishment of micro-businesses is very limited, it is difficult to fulfill the collateral requirements for access to credit.…”

The Making of Informed Choice in Midwifery: A Feminist Experiment in Care

This paper is about the clinical principle of informed choice-the hallmark feature of the midwifery model of care in Ontario, Canada. Drawing on ethnographic history interviews with midwives, I trace the origins of the idea of informed choice to its roots in the social movement of midwifery in North America in the late 1960s and 1970s. At that time informed choice was not the distinctive feature of midwifery but was deeply embedded what I call midwifery's feminist experiment in care. But as midwifery in Ontario transitioned from a social movement to a full profession within the formal health care system, informed choice was strategically foregrounded in order to make the midwifery model of care legible and acceptable to a skeptical medical profession, conservative law makers, and a mainstream clientele. As mainstream biomedicine now takes up the rhetoric of patient empowerment and informed choice, this paper is at once a nuanced history of the making of the concept and also a critique of the ascendant 'regime of choice' in contemporary health care, inspired by the reflections of the midwives in my study for whom choice is impossible without care.

Unravelling orders in a borderless Europe? Cross-border reproductive care and the paradoxes of assisted reproductive technology policy in Germany and Poland

This article examines assisted reproduction policy and practices in Germany and Poland. Germany is among the most restrictive countries in the European Union (EU) with respect to assisted reproductive technologies. In contrast, Poland only recently passed legislation regulating assisted reproductive technologies. Before this, most practices were unregulated, despite vocal opposition to all forms of IVF from conservative Roman Catholic activists. Germany and Poland differ significantly regarding the cultural narratives and historical experience that impact attitudes toward reproduction. In Germany, discussions on assisted reproduction often invoke concerns about medical intervention in ethically complex matters, due – in part – to the country’s National Socialist past. My objectives in this article centre on examining assisted reproduction contexts in each of these two countries, with attention to the framing of debates on reproduction, the anxieties that inform them, and the resulting paradoxes. I consider the unintended consequences of domestic policy and their importance regarding cross-border reproductive care (CBRC). Within the borderless EU, the widespread practice of CBRC demonstrates the ineffectiveness of national policies. Moreover, this shift in location can impact practices and trends found in other accessible, but less restrictive countries. Of particular concern are the relocation of risk to ‘bioavailable’ populations in less affluent countries and the reification of cultural and socio-economic hierarchies.
