Abstract

This study analyzes the psychological resilience of marble artisans in Tulungagung in facing increasingly complex legal challenges and market competition. The local marble industry confronts complicated licensing and environmental regulations, low levels of legal literacy, and competitive pressure from imported products and shifting consumer preferences, all of which generate psychological burdens such as stress and anxiety for the artisans. The research employs a qualitative approach enriched with quantitative data, using in-depth interviews with 18 artisans, field observations in marble production centers, and a resilience questionnaire administered to 20 respondents with an instrument adapted from the 25-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale.​ The results show an average resilience score of 72.8 (medium–high category), with optimism and persistence as the strongest dimensions, while stress regulation remains relatively weak, particularly in relation to legal and economic pressures. Thematic analysis reveals three main themes: the meaning of work as cultural heritage and social identity, legal uncertainty as a source of psychological stress, and community adaptation through mutual support and marketing innovation, including simple use of digital media. The findings also indicate a positive correlation between psychological resilience and market adaptation capacity, where artisans with higher resilience tend to be more innovative and more willing to experiment with new business strategies. The study concludes that resilience functions as important psychological capital for business sustainability, but its effectiveness is constrained by low legal awareness, thereby necessitating integrated interventions in the form of legal literacy empowerment and community-based resilience training for marble artisans in Tulungagung

Abstract

Standard form contracts are widely used in business activities due to their efficiency and practicality. However, their unilateral nature often places one party, particularly consumers, in a weaker bargaining position. This condition raises concerns regarding the application of the principle of balance between the parties as a fundamental principle in civil law. This study aims to analyze the application of the principle of balance in standard form contracts under civil law and to examine the extent to which existing legal regulations provide protection for the weaker party. This research employs a normative juridical method by analyzing statutory regulations, legal doctrines, and relevant legal principles, particularly those contained in the Civil Code and consumer protection laws. The results of the study indicate that although the principle of balance is recognized in civil law, its implementation in standard form contracts has not been fully realized, as many contractual clauses tend to favor business actors. Therefore, stronger legal safeguards and stricter supervision are required to ensure fairness and balance between the parties in standard form contracts.
