Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic stopped practically all activities in almost all sectors of the economy, resulting in an unprecedented global economic crisis. One of the impacts was that millions of women migrant workers lost their jobs in their host countries. This article explores the struggle of Indonesian women migrant workers as they returned to their hometowns in Banyuwangi Regency due to the COVID‐19 pandemic and were forced to find an alternative source of income for their families. This qualitative study uses literature studies and in-depth interviews to collect data and information. The results show that women took a heavier share of the workload in supporting their household during the pandemic. As a breadwinner, they had to quickly adapt to the situation and earn an income as soon as they returned home. They struggled to look for alternative sources of income in rural areas, which were limited to farming, online ride-hailing services (individual efforts), and SME activities (collective efforts), such as producing garments, food and fruit products, livestock, and crafts. For these women, the fear of being exposed to COVID-19 was pale in comparison to the fear of not being able to provide for the family. At the same time, once home, the workload from housework is theirs, doubling their burden.

Abstract

The religion particularly Islam has a considerable influence on the politics and governmental system in a country generally. But of course the role of Islam in politics and government will be different when Islam as the majority religion compared when Islam became a minority religion. It becomes interesting to be explored further, so as to see concrete evidence the authors determined to compare the dialectic of Islam in the politics and government in Indonesia and Thailand. The results of research showed that there is a significant imbalance between the role of Islam in Indonesia and Thailand for politics and government. In Indonesia since the struggle until independence era, the Muslim leaders and activists are aware that in order to improve the condition of the country, it takes a political struggle to deal with attempts to obtain power to influence government and public policy making. This can be evidenced by the existence of Islamic party or Islamic mass-based party from the first general election to date. In addition, at the level of government the role of Muslim activists and scholars are also greatly affected. Instead, in Thailand show that Islam has a small portion in politics and government. This is evidenced by the lack of political access and opportunity to participate in the governmental system. Even in a particular regime, Muslims get very discriminatory treatment. Like as in the administration of Prime Minister Phibul Songkhram and Thaksin Shinawatra. This condition is supported by the prevailing political system in Thailand, where the authority of the regime is absolute and inviolable. As an impact, insurgents groups in Southern Thailand namely National Revolution Row (BRN) and Pattani United Liberation Organization (PULO) continued to express special autonomy. With the special autonomy it is expected that the conflict in Southern Thailand will subside.

Abstract

The development of digital technology and communication often leads to disintegration in a pluralistic Indonesian society, especially in the young age group who are still in the process of finding their identity. The problem is, a survey conducted by the Association of Indonesian Internet Network Providers found that 80% of internet users in Indonesia are dominated by young people who are very vulnerable to hoax information, hate speech, and the entry of radical ideologies that often undermine nationalism attitudes. In fact, rebuilding a sense of nationalism in this era of globalization is not an easy thing. People tend to choose a new culture that is considered more practical than the local culture. Now in the field of fashion, batik is here to rebuild a sense of nationalism that is starting to fade in the midst of people's modern lifestyles. Therefore, the innovation initiated in this study is the Batik Sokaraja Ecotourism Village program which aims to raise the attitude of nationalism and the creative industry by utilizing the role of youth of productive age. This study uses a qualitative research method with a descriptive approach by referring to Megan Wood's ecotourism theory as an analytical tool. The results showed that the youths succeeded in making the Batik Sokaraja producing area to apply ecotourism principles such as protecting the surrounding environment, having minimal impact on the natural environment, according to the cultural and physical context of the local area, reducing water consumption levels, managing waste carefully, meet energy needs through passive design tools, seek collaboration with local communities, offer environmental education programs, and accommodate research. This success can trigger a sense of pride in wearing batik as a national identity and move the community's economy.
