Abstract

Dating among youth is an interesting social phenomenon as two individu aggre to engage in a dyadic and romantic social interaction. Dating, from the beginning to its end,  illustrates the cycle of dynamic social interaction which is full of symbolism. This research uses perspective of social interaction and symbolic interactionism theory to analyse dating among university students and how they attach meaning to dating. Using a qualitative-phenomenology design, this research collected primary data through indepth interviews. Findings of this research suggest that the cycle of dating is similar to social interaction. It started with asosiative activities, such as introduction and some initial activities before the decision to date has been made. Some activities during dating symbolize the implementation of the agreement between two indivuals. Meanwhile, some disosiative activities symbolize the discontinuation of the agreement between them. Students consider dating as casual and simple social interaction rather than a courship that lead to marriage.

Abstract

Agriculture in Indonesia is experiencing uncertainty because of the uneven use of agricultural technology. On the other hand, farmers are trapped in poverty because of limited land ownership, capital and technology. Indonesian farmers do not get certainty concerning crop by-products due to limited land, small production yields due to inadequate technology and very volatile market prices for agricultural production. This study aims to explore the reasons for the delay in the development of the agricultural sector in Indonesia and its relation to agricultural politics. The research method used in this research is descriptive qualitative. This research found that the complexity of agricultural problems that occur in Indonesia is not only due to the lack of development in agricultural technology, but also caused by the lack of agricultural land that can be utilized by farmers

Abstract

Name is the basic identity for a person. The Pegayaman muslims community has a distinctive naming pattern that has integrated Balinese Hindu culture. This paper aims to explore the Pegayaman muslim self-name system with the subject of the system of determining the name, naming based on birth order and naming with Islamic nuances. This study employed qualitative methods. The data were collected by using interview and observation. The results showed that the system of naming children in the Pegayaman community based on birth order follows the Hindu Bali cultural naming system, namely Wayan, Nengah, Nyoman and Ketut. A naming system based on gender was also found, namely Siti for the female group and Muhammad for the male group. This name is then combined with names with Islamic nuances taken from Islamic figures, names of the Prophet, Islamic teachings, national figures and so on. This finding indicates that the naming system in the Pegayaman Muslims community has high complexity. This complexity is inseparable from the integration of Balinese culture in their lives. This phenomenon indicates that the Pegayaman community has a high tolerance, moderate and inclusive attitude.

Abstract

Women’s role in family resilience has never ended. Even, their roles keep increasing and changing over time while remaining unexplored. This research discusses women’s role in family resilience drawing from the case of women cadres and non-cadres who were involved in the program for family resilience run by P2WKSS (women’s organization at village level). This research used a qualitative method and employed interviews and direct and participant observation to collect data in Cidadap Village in West Java. Data of this research were analyzed based on indicators of women’s role in the  family development and resilience, named iBangga (Indonesian Family Development Indexes).  This research  found  some important findings on women’s role in family resilience in the context of Sundanese culture in West Java. Women’s position in the family based on Sundanese gender norms, put them in the dominant and crucial roles in family resilience. In the family, women play roles as mothers and as wives; and they are responsible to maintain the family order and peace;  and to raise the children; while at the same time must serve their husband. In society, they are responsible to preserve gender norms and values and transmit it to the next generations. They also become the pioneer in the government program implemented in the village which targets to improve family resilience.

Abstract

Tea plantations have contributed essentially to the Indonesia economy. It also provides jobs for people living surrounding the plantation; although the wages are limited. Despite the low wage, however, working in the tea plantation has become the backbone for the household income of the tea pickers. This research aims to explore and describe views and opinions of tea plantation workers in southern highland Bandung about their job and how it means to them. It also explores how workers develop work culture and ethic and how they perceive it in contrast to core values of the tea plantation company. The daily living of the workers were explored to reveal local Sundanese cultural values that might underpin their work culture and ethic. Using a qualitative method with an ethnographic model, this research collected primary data through participant observation and in-depth interviews with tea plantation workers. The research findings suggest that tea plantation workers apply the concept of leutik asal nirilik (little but continuously); which refers to their income. This concept is rooted in the local Sundanese values of acceptance and perseverance; and this motivated them to keep up the job despite some possibilities to access other jobs. Workers view their job as meaningful despite the low wages and have a sense of belonging to the job. However, they do have some aspirations and visions about their career and welfare. They have a work culture and ethic which are  in line with the core values of the tea plantation company, named AKHLAK, which has been introduced to them only recently.

Abstract

Kris has been known as a sacred object; and often passed down by the owner to their descendants as inheritance. Through this process the assumption about Kris as the sacred object is maintained. However, nowadays, people no longer consider Kris as a valuable and sacred object as before, and some of them refuse to inherit a Kris from their parents. This research describes the meaning of Kris for people who inherit it from their parents and ancestors; what is their attitude toward Kris and how their attitude may represent the desacralization of Kris. This research was conducted in an ethnographic approach. Data collected through observation, in-depth interviews and literature review. Clifford Geertz’s symbolic interpretation theory was used as the framework of analysis. Findings of this research suggest that the heirs of Kris often interpret it as an ordinary object; and they no longer view the essence and nobility of Kris. This view leads them to develop skepticism towards the mystical phenomenon of Kris. Sometimes, they even refuse to inherit Kris due to social, cultural and religious considerations. In some cases, they consider Kris as a burden to them. These phenomena demonstrated how Kris loses its sacred dimension nowadays.
