Abstract

This study aims to describe the representation of Kaili culture and the function of the Dade Ndate oral tradition in Taripa Village, Sindue District. Dade Ndate is an oral tradition of the Kaili people presented in rhyming verses aaaa, sung with musical accompaniment to convey stories, experiences, messages, and life values. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with a literary anthropology approach. Stuart Hall's representation theory and I Nyoman Kutha Ratna's literary anthropology are used to analyze cultural representation, while William R. Bascom's theory of four functions of oral tradition is used to analyze the function of Dade Ndate. Data were collected through observation, semi-structured interviews, documentation, and field notes covering eleven categories of performances, including wedding processions, healing rituals, customary fines, and customs for girls entering adolescence. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of the study indicate that Dade Ndate represents six elements of Kaili culture, namely language, belief systems, social values, customs and traditions, traditional arts, and local wisdom. Dade Ndate also serves four functions: as a projection system, validation of cultural institutions and practices, a means of education, and maintenance of social norms. Thus, Dade Ndate serves not only as entertainment but also as a medium for representing Kaili identity and transmitting cultural heritage between generations.

Abstract

 Poverty in the digital era is not just an economic phenomenon, but a social construct that is massively produced through public discourse on social media Twitter (X). However, most of the previous research still focused on mass media reporting and political public opinion, without linking the ideology of digital poverty discourse with concrete language communication recommendations for institutions or media. To fill this gap, this study aims to describe the representation of poverty through text structure, analyze social cognition and the social context behind it, and formulate recommendations for non-stigmatic language communication. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with the Teun A. van Dijk Critical Discourse Analysis model, applied to 15 Twitter posts (X) for the 2026 period selected through purposive sampling techniques. The results of the analysis show three constructions of poverty, namely structural poverty (60%), absolute poverty (26.67%), and relative poverty (13.33%), with structural poverty dominating the discourse through criticism of regulations, policies, and economic-political systems. Based on these findings, this study formulates  recommendations for rights-based language communication and the framing of empowered subjects (agency) as practical guidelines for the media and public institutions. This finding confirms that the discourse on poverty on Twitter (X) is full of ideological content that requires a transformation of diction and framing so as not to perpetuate stigma against vulnerable communities, as well as offering evidence-based communication references for the field of media discourse and social policy studies.
