Abstract

Indonesia, as the sixth largest tobacco-producing country in the world, has participated in the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) by issuing compromise regulations through Government Regulation (PP) No. 109 of 2012. This regulation regulates restrictions on tobacco production and distribution of products made from tobacco raw materials. Furthermore, PP No. 109 of 2012 determines the increases in tobacco excise rates and the determination of limits on nicotine levels also sparked unrest among tobacco farmers in the Temanggung area. This article attempts to explain the insistence of farmers, especially in the eastern slope of Mount Sumbing, Pagergunung Village, Bulu District, Temanggung, in maintaining tobacco cultivation even though they are faced with an anti-tobacco campaign from the FCTC. The continued cultivation of tobacco can be understood as a form of regimen of cultivated plants. This article is an anthropological study with a regimentation theoretical perspective and ethnographic approach as a research method which presents the research results. From this research, it is known that the cultivation regimen is controlled by mythology, tobacco trade tricks, and the pretext of tradition as a socio-cultural surplus.

Abstract

This article examines the characteristics of Nusantara ulama’s fiqh through an Islamic anthropology approach combined with a reconstruction of contemporary uṣūl al-fiqh. The study addresses the academic problem of the dominance of normative-doctrinal approaches in fiqh studies that often neglect the social, cultural, and ethical dimensions of Islamic legal practices in non-Arab Muslim societies. Employing a qualitative hybrid approach, this research analyzes contemporary fiqh texts and ulama discourses using discourse analysis and normative-reflective readings of ‘urf, maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, Sufism, and collective ijtihad. The findings reveal that Nusantara fiqh functions as a dynamic socio-religious practice, produced through negotiations between Islamic norms, local customs, and the needs of a plural society. The integration of Sufism strengthens the ethical dimension of fiqh, while collective ijtihad and the recognition of ‘urf serve as the epistemological foundations that ensure social legitimacy and contextual relevance. This article contributes to the development of sociology of religion and Islamic anthropology by offering an integrative framework for understanding fiqh as a lived and socially embedded practice.

Abstract

Smallholder oil palm plantations have become a central pillar of rural livelihoods in many parts of Indonesia, including West Kalimantan. While governance and policy studies often frame oil palm expansion primarily in terms of production and economic growth, its social consequences—particularly for children within smallholder households—remain underexplored. This article examines the relationship between smallholder oil palm resilience, local governance practices, and the fulfillment of children’s rights through the lens of the anthropology of government. Drawing on qualitative ethnographic research conducted in Kapuas Hulu and Sintang Regencies, West Kalimantan, this study argues that oil palm functions not merely as an economic commodity but as a crop regime that structures daily rhythms, labor relations, and moral orientations within smallholder families. In this context, children frequently occupy adaptive positions within household survival strategies, including domestic labor and informal economic participation, which may undermine their rights to education, health, and well-being. The findings further demonstrate that children’s vulnerability in smallholder oil palm regions cannot be understood solely as a cultural or household-level issue. Rather, it is closely linked to fragmented local governance practices. The state emerges as a selective presence: strongly engaged in promoting productivity and economic stability in the oil palm sector, yet largely absent in integrating child protection mandates into economic and village governance policies. This selective engagement generates governance gaps that effectively delegate social risks to households and local communities. By positioning children as an analytical lens rather than merely as policy beneficiaries, this article contributes to government studies by highlighting how economic development policies shape everyday governance and reproduce social inequality at the household level. The study underscores the need for child-sensitive governance frameworks that integrate economic development with social protection in rural and agrarian contexts.

Abstract

Smart governance has become a primary instrument for governments to enhance efficiency and effectiveness in public service delivery. However, the rapid migration of public services to digital platforms carries a risk of excluding vulnerable groups, including the elderly, persons with disabilities, marginalized women, the poor, and communities living in remote areas. This article aims to analyze the development of smart governance in public services, identify challenges faced by vulnerable groups in accessing digital services, and formulate strategies to strengthen inclusive smart governance. Employing a systematic literature review approach, this study synthesizes findings from academic articles, policy documents, and international organization reports published between 2018 and 2025. The analysis reveals a fundamental paradox: while digital transformation of governance has improved service efficiency for those with adequate digital access and literacy, it simultaneously creates new barriers for vulnerable groups. Three main challenges are identified: limited digital infrastructure access, low digital literacy, and service design that has not fully adopted universal accessibility principles. Digital exclusion not only harms social justice but also threatens the legitimacy of democratic governance and accelerates existing social inequalities. This article proposes a multidimensional strategy comprising equitable infrastructure expansion, universal design implementation, community-based digital literacy programs, participatory co-production mechanisms, responsible data governance, and ongoing inclusive impact evaluations. This article contributes to the development of digital governance that is not solely oriented toward technological efficiency but also toward social justice and inclusive public services.

Abstract

This research is entitled “Community Empowerment Through Soft-Shell Crab Farming as an Effort to Improve the Economy and Welfare (A Case Study of the Sumber Rezeki and Bangka Pulo Groups in Alur Nunang Village, Banda Mulia Subdistrict, Aceh Tamiang Regency).” The study aims to understand the empowerment process carried out by the Sumber Rezeki and Bangka Pulo groups, as well as how soft-shell crab farming contributes to improving the economy and welfare of coastal communities. This study employs a qualitative descriptive method. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving key informants, main informants, and additional informants. Data analysis consisted of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings show that the community empowerment process was implemented through several stages: potential identification, alternative assessment, socialization and group formation, training and knowledge transfer, collective implementation of farming activities, and institutional strengthening and evaluation. This empowerment process has successfully increased household income, expanded employment opportunities, and strengthened social solidarity among group members. The success of the program was supported by social network cooperation, assistance from the NGO KEMPRA, and the sustainable use of local ecological resources. Therefore, community empowerment through soft-shell crab farming has proven not only to improve the economic condition of coastal communities but also to build independence and ecological awareness that support socio-economic sustainability in Alur Nunang Village.

Abstract

The flood disaster that struck Glumpang Payong Village, Baktiya District, North Aceh Regency, in November 2025 caused significant physical damage, economic losses, and disruptions to community activities. These conditions highlighted the need for accurate data to support post-disaster rehabilitation and reconstruction planning. This article aims to describe a community service program employing participatory damage and loss assessment after flooding and to analyze its contribution to community-based recovery governance. The program adopted a participatory and collaborative approach involving university lecturers, students, village officials, and affected residents. Data collection methods included field observations, structured interviews, community-based verification, and documentation of damage conditions. The results indicate that the participatory assessment successfully identified 70 flood-affected households with a data completeness rate of 100 percent. The collected information covered housing conditions, household asset damage, and estimated economic losses experienced by residents. The participatory approach enhanced data validity, transparency, and community engagement in post-disaster recovery planning. In addition to producing a comprehensive database, the program strengthened collaboration among universities, village governments, and local communities in supporting more targeted rehabilitation and reconstruction efforts. Therefore, participatory assessment can be recommended as a community service model for strengthening inclusive, accountable, and sustainable post-disaster recovery governance.

Abstract

Peatland ecosystems play a strategic role in global climate change mitigation through their capacity for carbon sequestration and hydrological regulation. However, peatland degradation in Indonesia demonstrates that environmental degradation is not merely an ecological issue but is also closely associated with power dynamics, public policies, and political-economic interests. This study aims to examine the dynamics of multi-stakeholder participation in peatland restoration and to analyse how power relations influence the effectiveness of restoration policy implementation within the framework of the peat hydrological unit. A qualitative research approach employing a participatory action research (PAR) design was adopted. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, focus group discussions (FGDs), and document analysis in the Mendahara–Batanghari peat hydrological unit, Jambi Province, Indonesia. The data were analysed using thematic analysis integrated with a political ecology perspective to examine power relations and conflicts of interest among stakeholders. The findings reveal that multi-stakeholder participation in peatland restoration remains largely procedural rather than substantive, as decision-making processes continue to be dominated by government institutions and corporate actors. Although local communities possess high legitimacy and valuable ecological knowledge, they remain marginalised due to limited access to resources and decision-making power. Furthermore, conflicts between economic development objectives, particularly the expansion of oil palm plantations and the ecological goals of peatland restoration, constitute a major obstacle to the effectiveness of restoration programs. Peatland degradation is rooted in unequal power structures and broader political-economic processes that facilitate resource exploitation. Co-management-based multi-stakeholder participation that emphasises power redistribution, the strengthening of local institutions, and the integration of ecosystem-based policies through the peat hydrological unit framework is expected to enhance the long-term effectiveness of peatland restoration while promoting more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable natural resource governance.
