Abstract

This study aims to analyze how social capital operates within rural community empowerment through the Empowered Village Program in Lampung Province, Indonesia. Although community empowerment is widely promoted, existing studies often emphasize program outputs rather than examining the mechanisms through which social capital strengthens empowerment processes, leading to limited understanding of participation dynamics and long-term sustainability. Using a qualitative descriptive case study, this research collected data over a three-month period through in-depth interviews with twelve purposively selected informants involved in program planning, implementation, and community leadership. These data were supplemented by participant observation and document analysis, with validity ensured through source triangulation, method triangulation, and member checking. The findings show that strengthening four core sectors economy, education, health, and environment enhances self-reliance, local leadership, and collective action while enabling communities to address structural barriers. The study concludes that optimizing bonding and bridging social capital is essential for sustaining empowerment and ensuring program continuity, offering practical implications for inclusive rural development

Abstract

This study examines how social structures influence and legitimize early marriage practices, and how these practices impact family functions in Tanjung Harapan Village, Tanjung Raya Subdistrict, Mesuji Regency. Using a descriptive qualitative approach and Talcott Parsons' structural functionalism theory, this research involved ten purposively selected informants, including underage married couples, their parents, village officials, and religious leaders. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and documentation, and analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model. The findings reveal that early marriage is driven by economic vulnerability, cultural normalization, peer influence, and the weak role of formal institutions, resulting in informal legitimacy that overrides state law. These conditions lead to family dysfunction, marked by financial dependence, emotional immaturity, and constrained social roles. Through the AGIL framework, this study identifies the failure of adaptation, goal attainment, integration, and latency functions within the local social system. It concludes that early marriage is not merely a personal or moral issue, but a systemic problem rooted in structural inequality. The study recommends strengthening preventive efforts through community-based education and the involvement of local institutions in promoting healthy family development.
