Abstract

The decolonization of sociological knowledge is critically important for challenging enduring Eurocentric dominance and epistemic inequalities in the discipline, yet empirical assessments of Global South contributions remain scarce. This study addresses this gap by conducting a bibliometric analysis (2014–2024) of 496 Scopus-indexed documents to examine the visibility and integration of postcolonial and Global South scholarship in sociology. Using VOSviewer for co-citation and bibliographic coupling analyses, the study reveals persistent marginalization: fewer than 15% of citations in high-impact journals reference works from Asia, Africa, or Latin America, while 62% of decolonization-related publications originate from the U.S. and Canada. Key findings highlight the hegemony of Western theoretical canons (e.g., Bourdieu, Foucault) and the exclusion of Southern epistemologies (e.g., Ubuntu, Buen Vivir), exacerbated by metric systems privileging Scopus/WoS-indexed journals. The results underscore the need for structural interventions—curricular reforms, inclusive citation practices, and alternative databases—to democratize knowledge production. This research contributes empirical evidence to decolonial debates, offering pathways to transform sociology into a pluralistic discipline that centers marginalized voices and addresses global epistemic injustices.

Abstract

The phenomenon of using second accounts on Instagram is growing among students, especially in generation Z, to express themselves more freely and personally. The purpose of this research is to understand the meaning of students of the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Universitas Muhammadiyah Bengkulu regarding the use of second accounts on Instagram, with a qualitative approach and phenomenological method. Dramaturgical theory was used as the theoretical basis to analyze how individuals present themselves in social interactions, by distinguishing between “front stage” and “back stage” in the use of social media. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation of students who actively use second accounts on Instagram. The research findings show that university students use second accounts as a private place to express feelings, stage totality: front and back stage working together and an escape from social pressure and aesthetic standards. Second accounts are considered as a symbol of a truer self-identity and as a tool to build closer social relationships with certain groups of friends. The use of second accounts also reflects students' strategies in managing self-image and privacy in the digital world. Through the perspective of dramaturgical theory, the use of second accounts is understood as the result of different self-presentations on the "front stage" and "back stage", where individuals adjust their performances to achieve personal satisfaction and social control in communication on social media.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the impact of gadget addiction on changes in the social interactions of early childhood children in Betungan Village, Bengkulu City. Using a qualitative approach and case study method, data was collected through in-depth interviews and documentation, analyzed using theory of social change and symbolic interaction. The results of the study show that, on average, children spend more than four hours per day using gadgets, far exceeding the one hour limit recommended by experts. This habit has led to a decline in children's participation in group play, difficulties in understanding emotional expressions, and limitations in two-way communication. Passive stimulation from screens replaces physical activity and creative play, which are essential for fine motor development and imagination, thereby hindering socio-emotional growth. The main factors contributing to addiction include easy access to gadgets at home, app designs that make it difficult for children to detach, and a lack of alternative educational and recreational activities. In addition, the use of gadgets as a distraction tool in parenting reduces face to face interaction and emotional closeness between parents and children. A collaborative effort between families, educational institutions, and local governments is needed to set screen time limits, provide child friendly play facilities, and develop interactive stimulation programs to mitigate the negative effects of gadget addiction on the social, emotional, and cognitive development of early childhood.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the behavioral changes experienced by perpetrators of early marriage in Padang Capo Village, Seluma Regency, Bengkulu Province. Early marriage is still a pressing problem, especially in rural areas, despite various counseling efforts and government policies. This practice is generally influenced by low socioeconomic conditions, local cultural norms, limited education, and pregnancy before marriage. This study used a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. To understand the behavioral changes that occur, this study uses behavioral theory in sociology, which emphasizes that individual behavior is formed through the process of social learning, reinforcement from the environment, and adaptation to new social norms and roles.The main subjects in this study are four individuals who married under the age of 18. The results showed that early marriage resulted in complex and multidimensional behavioral changes, including emotional, psychological, social, and family aspects. Some informants experienced high emotional stress, limited access to education, and loss of personal freedom, especially after giving birth. However, some also showed signs of adaptation and emotional growth in their marital relationships. Changes in the social environment and new responsibilities contributed to.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji struktur sosial keluarga di Desa Taba Renah yang mendukung praktik pernikahan dini. Pendekatan kualitatif digunakan dalam pengumpulan data melalui wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi yang melibatkan orang tua, tokoh masyarakat, tokoh agama, dan remaja. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa praktik pernikahan dini dipengaruhi oleh norma budaya, penafsiran harfiah terhadap ajaran agama, kesulitan ekonomi, serta kurangnya pemahaman tentang hak-hak anak. Bagi sebagian keluarga, pernikahan dini dianggap sebagai cara untuk menjaga kehormatan keluarga, mencegah pergaulan bebas, dan mengurangi beban ekonomi. Penelitian ini juga menunjukkan bahwa lembaga sosial dan keagamaan turut memperkuat pernikahan dini sebagai praktik yang dianggap wajar. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini menekankan pentingnya pendidikan dan sosialisasi untuk meningkatkan kesadaran masyarakat mengenai dampak negatif jangka panjang dari pernikahan dini, khususnya bagi remaja perempuan. Upaya ini penting untuk mendukung perlindungan hak anak dan mendorong kesetaraan gender.

Abstract

Online gambling addiction among adolescents has become an increasingly alarming social issue, including in Talang Ulu Village, North Bengkulu. This study aims to analyze the role of families and communities in addressing this issue using the social fact approach and Structural Functionalism theory. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, with data collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving families, community leaders, and adolescents. The findings reveal that families play a crucial role as agents of socialization by instilling moral values, providing emotional support, and supervising behavior in a non-coercive manner. In parallel, community leaders and village authorities contribute through social assistance as a form of social control. Collaboration between family and community proves effective in mitigating online gambling addiction among youth. The study concludes that strong synergy among social elements is essential to maintaining societal harmony amidst modernization. The implications highlight the need to strengthen family values and community involvement to prevent and address deviant behavior among adolescents.

Abstract

Penelitian ini berfokus pada mengenali perubahan dalam perilaku para ibu rumah tangga di Desa Retes, Kecamatan Air Padang, Kabupaten Bengkulu Utara, yang dipicu oleh penggunaan aplikasi media sosial TikTok. Latar belakang penelitian ini adalah fenomena meningkatnya ketenaran TikTok di kalangan warga desa, yang bukan hanya mempengaruhi tetapi juga berpotensi mengubah kebiasaan sehari-hari penggunanya, termasuk para ibu rumah tangga. Metodologi yang diadopsi dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan kualitatif dengan mengumpulkan data melalui wawancara mendalam, pengamatan langsung, serta dokumentasi mengenai aktivitas sehari-hari responden. Partisipan dalam penelitian terdiri dari tiga ibu rumah tangga yang aktif menggunakan TikTok setidaknya enam bulan terakhir. Temuan dari penelitian ini mengungkapkan bahwa penggunaan TikTok memberikan efek signifikan pada perilaku ibu rumah tangga, baik dalam hal interaksi sosial, pengelolaan waktu, maupun gaya hidup. Mayoritas responden mengalami perubahan dalam rutinitas harian mereka, seperti lebih banyak menghabiskan waktu untuk menonton dan menciptakan konten di TikTok dibandingkan melakukan pekerjaan rumah tangga. Selain itu, juga terdeteksi adanya peningkatan ketertarikan untuk mengikuti tren mode, resep masakan, dan aktivitas lain yang populer di platform tersebut. Meski demikian, penggunaan TikTok juga memberikan peluang positif, seperti peningkatan kemampuan digital dan kesempatan untuk memperluas jaringan sosial. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa TikTok memiliki pengaruh yang berlipat, yaitu sebagai sarana hiburan yang dapat memupuk kreativitas sekaligus menjadi sumber gangguan bagi ibu rumah tangga di desa. Oleh karena itu, sangat penting untuk memberikan edukasi tentang penggunaan media sosial yang bijak agar dampak negatifnya dapat diminimalisir dan manfaatnya dapat dimaksimalkan.

Abstract

The growth of e-commerce has created significant challenges for traditional traders at Panorama Market, Bengkulu City. Many traders face difficulties competing with online platforms that offer lower prices and easier access. This study aims to analyze the adaptation strategies adopted by traditional traders to address these changes and sustain their businesses. A qualitative approach is used in this research, with data collection techniques that include observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings show that although some traders struggle with technology, others have successfully adapted to e-commerce disruption by using social media and e-commerce platforms such as Facebook, TikTok, Shopee, and Tokopedia to expand their market reach. Additionally, word-of-mouth promotion within local communities, like trader and market associations, has proven effective for promoting products and maintaining customer loyalty. Based on Manuel Castells' information economy theory, combining social media and e-commerce platforms with offline interactions strengthens traders' social ties and enhances their competitiveness. Thus, traditional traders at Panorama Market have the potential to adapt, leverage technology, and compete in the digital era.

Abstract

For Indonesians living in earthquake-prone areas, natural disasters pose a significant threat. One such event occurred in Bengkulu Province, which was struck by a 6.3 magnitude earthquake at 8:34 PM WIB on May 28, 2025. This study examines how local mass media influenced public sentiment during the emergency response to the 6.3 magnitude earthquake that shook Bengkulu on May 28, 2025. During the crisis, local media such as PedomanBengkulu.com, LensaBengkulu.com, RBTV, Rakyat Bengkulu, and Bengkulu Ekspress played an important role in providing information and calming the public. This study examines how local media coverage affects public perceptions of disaster risk, government reactions, and mitigation strategies using a literature study methodology. The findings show that local media usually avoid speculative news and prioritize news that is educative, calming and informative. By using news framing based on reliable information and official sources, local media are able to build community involvement in disaster response, foster positive collective opinion and increase public trust. Public communication management in emergency situations, especially in disaster-prone areas, can be improved through the theoretical and practical contributions of this research.
