THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE POLICE ASSESSMENT CENTER ON THE INDONESIAN NATIONAL POLICE IN SUPPORTING OF OPEN PROMOTION
The way to clarify the concept of the human resources competence of The Indonesian National Police (POLRI) is believed to be a key factor in determining the success of the police organization. Currently, POLRI has implemented an open position promotion program which one of the stages uses the Assessment Center to exam managerial competence. This research aims to analyze the policies and impact of assessment center implementation in supporting of the open positions promotion. The Researchers apply qualitative approaches with data collection techniques in the form of observations, interviews and document studies. The results of the study findings concluded that the Assessment Center implementation policy in support of open promotion in the narrow sense has been implemented although incomplete. In a broad sense, the implementation of assessment center policies in supporting of open promotion has not been successful and has not given a positive impact. This is because The Indonesian National Police as a bureaucratic organization, does not fully have the organizational capacity that is the backbone of bureaucracy, which involves: organizational structure; mechanism of work; human resources; financial support as well as resources needed to work. These four elements have not been able to realize optimal conditions and support each other.

COLLABORATIVE GOVERNANCE IN MOBILIZING VILAGE-OWNED ENTERPRISES (BUMDes) DURING COVID-19 PANDEMIC IN INDONESIA
Village – Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) was developed to increase the village revenue and drive the people’s economy through resource and village asset management. The existence of BUMDes is expected to improve village potential and become a pillar of the community’s economy. Not only oriented on increasing the village local revenue, but BUMDes must also have a social mission to help the villagers, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study method employed was descriptive qualitative, and the data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. Informants were selected through purposive sampling out of the various parties related to BUMDes in the Polanharjo Sub-district, Klaten District. The results of the study showed that the mass development of BUMDes as a top-down policy without any consideration of the local potential of each village has caused a lack of support from the community and has led to the lack of development of BUMDes, making many lapses into a stasis. However, there are a few BUMDes that were able to develop well, making them a motor for the village economy during the COVID-19 pandemic through their various business enterprises. The BUMDes units that have succeeded to grow and develop are those that could identify the local potentials and resources through various innovations, receive social support through their people’s participation and build partnerships with many parties such as the village government, private sector, and the community in the form of collaborative governance.

MONEY LAUNDERING AS A DESTABILIZING FACTOR OF A SOCIETY
As a potential candidate for membership in the European Union and Bosnia and Herzegovina, a country committed to the Euro-Atlantic integration process has committed itself to strengthening the rule of law and strengthening institutions in the field of justice and home affairs. One of the important activities in this process is the adoption and implementation of public policies in the field of combating money laundering, bearing in mind that this social scourge in its manifestations is the greatest threat to the stability and smooth functioning of a country. Money laundering is a global problem of the twenty-first century. As a form of economic crime, the money laundering process is represented both nationally and internationally.
Although there are a large number of definitions of money laundering, it can be said that it consists of shorter or longer movements of funds acquired through illegal activities, in order to obtain seemingly legal means through the cycle of transformation. The complexity of the fight against money laundering and the problems of combating various forms of money laundering go beyond the possibilities and efforts undertaken by the competent authorities and government institutions. All countries should go ahead of money launderers, that is, they should go ahead in designing and prescribing methods and ways of fighting, but they should also not allow criminals to use a corrupt and unregulated institutional framework and gain lucrative money laundering income.

PSYCHODYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF MURDER WITH INCESTIOUS BACKGROUND
Incest as a sexual behavior psychiatry observes solely as a psychopathological phenomenon. The essence of incest is in sexual contact between close relatives, and the causes of its occurrence are in a personality of sex offenders and also in an environment in which they grew up. According to Freud, the incest taboo is one of the strongest prohibitions of the mankind, which characterize every culture. In the world of schizophrenic, incest which is committed (or from which they defend themselves) is usually that is considered a serious sin by people and which is rare among healthy population, and that is: incest between mother and son, and between brother and sister. So far researches emphasize that incest usually causes strong emotional trauma from which some phobias, depression, anxious states can be developed and other psychiatric disorders. The case of murder in family is analyzed in this task. Incestuous relationships determined a form and content of the patient’s clinical picture which was burdened with deep feelings of guilt, anxiousness, fear and depression, with homicide and suicide behavior.

DENTAL IMPLANT MATERIAL (POLYETHERETHERKETONE, TITANIUM AND ITS ALLOYS, ZIRCONIA)
The goal of this article is to inform the reader of three distinct types of biomedical materials applied in the production of dental implants, focusing on characteristics and categorizations of biomaterials based on: titanium (Ti + its alloys), commercially manufactured synthetic polymers (polyetheretherketone) and ceramic materials (zirconium dioxide). Considering the development and construction of implants, specific material requirements are named (mechanical properties), corrosion resistance, compatibility, morphology, etc. Each of these materials represents a specific group of biomedical materials and has a number of advantages. However, in relation to the differences in their nature (metal, plastic, ceramic base), it is necessary to approach the choice of material for dental implants with respect to the specific implant design and the patient’s health limitations.

CONFLICT OF A MEMORY CULTURE IN WESTERN BALKANS
Cultures of remembrance that are officially affirmed by national elites in the Western Balkan countries, that is in the former Yugoslavia, are a source of ongoing conflict. Various collective memories and mutually antagonized interpretations of the past, show that Croats, Serbs, Bosnians, Macedonians, Montenegrins and others who lived together for centuries and decades within a single state, after all interpret and remember their common history in completely different ways. Their social narratives about the past and dominant cultures of memory are predominantly selective, one-sided, intolerant, exclusive. After a long time, they lived together members of different ethnic, religious and national backgrounds and their historically unfinished and unsuccessful attempt to form a common Yugoslav culture and unique Yugoslav identity, a difficult civil war occurred, ethno-nationalism escalated, and people who were very close and very similar to one another, tried to create as much difference and distance between themselves through violence. All national communities that participated in the wars of the 1990s, emphasized defending national culture as one of their main tasks. The warring parties sought to destroy everything that reminded them that different people, their neighbors and friends of a different religion were living there. Today, three decades after these conflicts, they are still prisoners of their attitude to history. The culture nevertheless brings them together and inspires them to understand themselves more and to cooperate better.

FABRICATION OF TEMPERATURE AND pH SENSITIVE BIOPOLYMER/CLAY BIOCOMPOSITE AS DRUG CARRIER FOR RANITIDINE – HCl
The scientific studies on drug delivery systems that transport drugs to the targeted tissues, at a certain rate and desired time intervals, have gained popularity. The main goal of the drug delivery and release systems is to maintain the drug level in the blood plasma by balancing the amount of active ingredient. In this study, pH and temperature sensitive drug carriers were prepared using chitosan as a biopolymer and clay as a natural material. The characterization of the prepared materials was performed for structural analysis by FT-IR and for morphological analysis by SEM instruments. The swelling properties of the prepared materials were investigated. In this work, Ranitidine-HCl was used as a model drug. The prepared drug carriers were first loaded with Ranitidine-HCl and release properties of the materials were investigated at two different temperatures (25oC, 37oC) and various pH medium. The data obtained from the experiments indicated that the maximum release of Ranitidine–HCl from the prepared sample was observed at pH=7,6 buffer solution at both temperatures by comparing buffer solutions. It has been shown that the materials prepared in this study are suitable carriers for the Ranitidine-HCl drug active ingredient.
