Abstract

This research aims to determine the correlation between functional structural theory and people's habits in throwing away any rubbish resulting from the habit of throwing rubbish carelessly on the social environment in Medan Marelan District, Medan City. The research method used is the field observation method. Where research results are obtained through direct observation using observation guidelines, namely directly observing the object being studied. The results of the research show that the influence of waste on the social environment is: in terms of health, the presence of various diseases that attack from accumulated waste, the city government manages waste so that it is easy to sort it by providing facilities and advice on waste disposal and workers transporting waste. In the social aspect of society, the influence of society on communication has increased, in contrast to before the improvements. In terms of accessibility, the impact has been felt by the community, especially the surrounding community. The community is certainly greatly helped by the role of the cleaning service. For example, it won't take long for them to throw away their rubbish to get to the landfill because there are already rubbish workers from the Medan city sanitation service close to where they live. Finally, in terms of the environment, the impact of littering has shown a significant influence because after this habit, rivers, roads and drainage have accumulated rubbish.

Abstract

The emergence of virtual society has created a new space for the formation of social identity that is fluid and performative. This study aims to analyze whether the online sphere provides freedom for identity expression or, conversely, fosters social alienation. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this paper employs Erving Goffman's dramaturgical theory, Anthony Giddens’ concept of the reflexive self, and Karl Marx’s theory of alienation as its analytical framework. The findings reveal that identity in virtual society is shaped through continuous self-image negotiation, which can lead to a gap between the ideal self and the real self. The online space may serve as a platform for self-expression, yet it also has the potential to reinforce feelings of alienation, particularly when digital interactions replace genuine social closeness. This study highlights the importance of critical awareness in navigating the dynamics of identity formation in contemporary digital society. Keywords: Social identity, virtual society, dramaturgy, digital alienation, reflectivitas ABSTRAK Kemunculan masyarakat virtual telah membuka ruang baru bagi pembentukan identitas sosial yang bersifat cair dan performatif. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis apakah ruang daring memberi kebebasan ekspresi identitas atau justru menciptakan keterasingan sosial. Dengan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif, tulisan ini menggunakan teori dramaturgi Erving Goffman, konsep “reflexive self” dari Anthony Giddens, dan teori alienasi Karl Marx sebagai kerangka analisis. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa identitas di masyarakat virtual dibentuk melalui proses negosiasi citra diri yang terus-menerus, namun berpotensi menimbulkan jarak antara diri ideal dan diri nyata. Ruang daring dapat menjadi wadah ekspresi, tetapi juga medan yang memperkuat perasaan keterasingan, terutama ketika interaksi digital menggantikan kedekatan sosial yang autentik. Penelitian ini menyoroti pentingnya kesadaran kritis terhadap dinamika pembentukan identitas dalam masyarakat digital kontemporer. Kata Kunci: Identitas sosial, masyarakat virtual, dramaturgi, alienasi digital, reflektivitas

Abstract

The rapid growth of the digital economy, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, has fundamentally transformed business patterns for Culinary MSME Traders in Indonesia. This study explores how traditional traders adapt to digitalization, the economic impacts of digital platforms, transformation challenges, and the collaboration between MSMEs and the gig economy ecosystem. Using a qualitative approach, the research involved in-depth interviews with two Culinary MSME Traders who transitioned to digital platforms and collaborated with gig economy services. The findings indicate that prior to digital adoption, trading was limited by direct interactions, narrow consumer reach, and unstable income. Following the shift to digital media (WhatsApp, Facebook, and e-commerce), traders experienced increased efficiency, broader market expansion, and improved income stability. Furthermore, collaboration with gig economy couriers, such as ShopeeFood and GoFood, significantly streamlined distribution processes. However, despite these benefits, traders face persistent obstacles, including limited digital literacy, internet costs, and a decline in traditional social market interactions. In conclusion, while digital transformation poses certain challenges, it has overall enhanced business sustainability and merchant welfare, fostering a more.

Abstract

Sekaten tradition is an ancestral cultural heritage that has lasted since the days of the Islamic Mataram Kingdom. This tradition holds a philosophical meaning about the relationship of man with the Creator through the Sekaten tradition. In addition, the Sekaten procession also reflects the spirit of mutual cooperation that is closely inherent in Javanese society. Unfortunately, in today's modern era, the enthusiasm of the younger generation towards Sekaten is fading. This may threaten the preservation of this tradition in the future. Efforts to revitalize Sekaten need to be done by exploring the philosophical values and local wisdom contained in it. This excavation is important so that the meaning of this tradition remains relevant for the millennial generation. In addition, it is necessary to socialize and assist young people to love and preserve Sekaten as a local cultural identity that should be maintained. The participation of all components of society is necessary in order to maintain the existence of Sekaten in the midst of modernization, so that ancestral values are maintained and timeless by the changing times.

Abstract

Kerja Rani is a harvest thanksgiving tradition in the Batak Karo Protestant Protestan (GBKP), reflecting the relationship between the congregation and nature. Although rooted in the agrarian culture of the Karo people, the practice has changed, especially among urban congregations. This research aims to identify ecological values in Kerja Rani and its relevance in the context of the current environmental crisis. Through a literature study, findings show that Kerja Rani can serve as a means to raise ecological awareness and strengthen human relationships with nature. GBKP has the opportunity to utilize this ritual in environmental education, inviting congregants to appreciate the role of nature and integrate sustainability values in daily life.

Abstract

Lubuk Larangan, a local wisdom practice in Sumatra, Indonesia, is a traditional fisheries management system that prohibits fishing in certain river zones to preserve natural resources. This article analyzes this practice through the lens of ecological sociology, using the perspectives of William R. Catton Jr. and Riley E. Dunlap, comparing the Human Exemptionalism Paradigm (HEP) with the New Ecological Paradigm (NEP). This qualitative research combines a literature review of NEP and HEP theories with fieldwork in Jambi, Riau, Mandailing Natal, and Solok Selatan (2022–2024), using secondary data from observations, interviews, and research reports. The findings indicate that Lubuk Larangan reflects the NEP by integrating ecological variables into the social structure, increasing fish biodiversity by up to 50% in the prohibited zone, and strengthening social capital through communal rituals. However, challenges of modernization such as urbanization and oil palm plantations threaten the sustainability of this practice. The article concludes that Lubuk Larangan offers a globally relevant model for sustainability, with recommendations for the integration of national policies and digital research.

Abstract

Fahombo Batu, or Nias Stone Jumping, is a traditional practice that symbolizes bravery, maturity, and honor among the Nias people of Indonesia. While commonly understood as a rite of passage, its broader role in shaping leadership values, physical discipline, and cultural identity remains underexplored in contemporary scholarship. This study addresses this gap by examining Fahombo Batu as an embodied cultural institution that connects physical performance with social recognition and symbolic authority. Using a cultural anthropology approach through qualitative literature review, this research analyzes ethnographic and historical sources to trace the continuity and transformation of the practice. The findings indicate that Fahombo Batu functions not only as a marker of adulthood but also as a medium for transmitting leadership ideals, reinforcing social cohesion, and sustaining collective identity. In the context of modernization, Fahombo Batu has been recontextualized as a cultural tourism attraction. Rather than eroding its meaning, this shift demonstrates the adaptive capacity of local traditions to negotiate between symbolic heritage and economic demands. This study contributes to cultural sociology by offering a perspective on how embodied traditions reproduce social values while remaining resilient amid social change.
