Abstract

This research is motivated by the fact that Leila S. Chudori’s novel Laut Bercerita represents the history of the repressive power of the New Order through complex symbolic signs, requiring semiological theory to reveal the ideological meaning behind the text. This study aims to describe: (1) the denotative meaning of power, (2) the connotative meaning of power, (3) the mythical meaning of power, and (4) the representation of power in the novel. The method used is descriptive-qualitative with Roland Barthes’ semiological approach. The primary data source is the text of the novel Laut Bercerita. Data collection was done through close reading, while data analysis followed Barthes’ three stages of signification: identification of signs, analysis of denotation and connotation, and revelation of myth, which were then synthesized into a representation of power. The results indicate that power is represented through six main forms: (1) repression and surveillance, (2) systematic violence, (3) narrative control and propaganda, (4) psychological terror, (5) structures that monopolize the state, and (6) entities leaving permanent trauma. At the myth level, the novel dismantles the New Order’s grand narrative of stability and development by showing that power is built on systematic oppression and enforced disappearances. This study concludes that power in the novel is constructed through a sign system with literal denotative meanings and ideologically laden connotative meanings, forming myths of totalitarian power and counter-myths of resistance.

Abstract

Bolehkah Sekali Saja Kumenangis is an Indonesian drama film released on October 17, 2024, directed by Reka Wijaya and written by Junisya Aurelita, Rezy Junio, Santy Diliana, and Alim Sudio. The film is inspired by the song Runtuh, popularized by Feby Putri and Fiersa Besari in 2021. This study aims to: 1) analyze the representation of the father’s patriarchal dominance in the film Bolehkah Sekali Saja Kumenangis, 2) identify the form of existential resistance of female characters against the father’s patriarchal dominance in the domestic sphere based on the perspective of Simone de Beauvoir’s existentialist feminism, and 3) explain the process of the female character’s transcendence from the position of The Other to the existential subject according to Simone de Beauvoir. This research was conducted in 2026 at Surabaya State University. The research population was all scenes and dialogue texts in the film Bolehkah Sekali Saja Kumenangis by Reka Wijaya, with samples in the form of scenes and dialogues that represent the father’s patriarchal dominance, existential resistance, and the process of the female character’s transcendence. The research instrument was a human instrument (the researcher herself) assisted by a data classification table. The data analysis tool used the Miles and Huberman model consisting of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study show three main findings. First, the father’s patriarchal dominance is represented through four forms: structural, psychological, verbal, and restrictions on movement. Second, the female characters’ existential resistance takes the form of active resistance, with Tari demonstrating resistance from the beginning of the film and Ibu at the climax. Third, the female characters’ process of transcendence from the position of The Other, the process of transcendence, and existential freedom.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze Baek Kang-Hyeok's basic needs and self-actualization needs, as well as to motivate the surrounding community when fulfilling these needs, from the most basic to the fulfillment of self-actualization needs. Basic needs are indicated by physiological needs, safety needs, belonging needs, and esteem needs. Furthermore, higher needs are the self-actualization needs of Baek Kang-Hyeok in the Korean drama "The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call," using Abraham Maslow's theory (1954). This research method uses descriptive qualitative research with data sources from the Korean drama "The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call." The research data consists of words, scene documentation, and sentences. Data collection techniques include preparing data sources, listening techniques, documentation techniques, note-taking techniques, grouping data, coding, and data reduction. The results show Baek Kang-Hyeok's achievement in basic physiological needs such as food, drink, shelter, and sleep. Safety needs include physical safety, freedom from fear or worry, security in having a job and a steady salary. He also needs a sense of belonging to colleagues who assist him during surgery. Esteem needs include success, self-confidence, fame, status, and recognition. Self-actualization needs include empathy, helpfulness, a medical profession that saves patients, talents or hobbies, and problem-solving skills. Once basic needs and self-actualization are met, a person will demonstrate psychological stability, leading to motivation to fulfill higher-order needs and become a better person. This study recommends further research related to Abraham Maslow's theory in the context of fulfilling basic needs and self-actualization in the realms of work, well-being, mental health, and social needs.
