Abstract

Classical sociology is a theoretical domain that is often labelled outdated. Nevertheless, in the Sociology curriculum, almost all departments teach classical theory to their students. In Indonesia, several classical scholars like Auguste Comte, Herbert Spencer, Karl Marx, Ferdinand Tonnies, Max Weber, and Emile Durkheim have been consistently taught by sociology departments all over the universities. However, despite the unwavering effort to preserve classical tradition, there have been no scientific articles that reveal one of the founding fathers of French Sociology, Gabriel Tarde. This article attempts to respond to these shortcomings by bringing the fruits of Gabriel Tarde's thoughts to the surface. This study uses critical hermeneutics to explain key concepts initiated by Gabriel Tarde in a series of scientific works and biographies. In general, the study found two things. First, there are two dominant concepts in Gabriel Tarde's thought: imitation and monad. The idea of imitation is used by Tarde to explain how society exists, while the understanding of monads empowers Tarde to elaborate on the phenomenon of social change. Second, with the example of migrant workers and the processes of agricultural innovation, this paper endorses the application of Tarde’s theory of imitation and monads to explain myriad social phenomena in Indonesia. However, the article provides three criticisms toward Tarde: his blindness to economic or financial capital, the heavy reliance on natural science analogy, and the tendency of elitism and colonialism.

Abstract

In Indonesia, the resolution of sexual violence cases often involves out-of-court mechanisms or restorative justice settlements. Following the enactment of the Law on Sexual Violence Crime (hereinafter abbreviated as TPKS), there should be no further out-of-court law settlements as explicitly regulated in Article 23. This paper seeks to criticise the prevailing practice of restorative justice. In addition, this article discusses the TPKS Law as a legal framework that favours the rights of victims using a feminist standpoint approach. The research method in this study is descriptive qualitative, using various sources of literature as its data sources. The results show that the implementation of restorative justice has ignored the aspects of unequal power relations between victims and perpetrators, which resulted in re-victimisation and the neglect of victims' rights. The TPKS Law is a starting point for the abolition of restorative justice practices in resolving sexual violence cases. The TPKS Law guarantees more protection for victims' rights, making victims more empowered and avoiding intimidating treatment from law enforcement officials and perpetrators. However, the TPKS Law has not been integrated with regulations in law enforcement institutions. Thus, guidelines for handling sexual violence based on the TPKS Law are essential for law enforcement institutions, ensuring a more gender-sensitive approach while permanently halting the practice of restorative justice in such cases.

Abstract

Academic progress relies on integrity, and researchers must uphold rigorous standards to ensure knowledge advancement and informed decision-making. However, this foundation is threatened by the proliferation of predatory journals, which exploit the pressure to publish and undermine the credibility of scholarly work. For Nigerian academics, this challenge is compounded by limited awareness, institutional pressures, and scarce access to reputable outlets. This study investigates why Nigerian academics frequent predatory journals, exploring their motivations, consequences for research quality, and implications of this practice. Using an exploratory qualitative research design, the study collected data through Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) with selected academics at the Federal University Gusau, Zamfara State, Nigeria. Data generated from the interview were transcribed, and patterns were identified and organized according to the objectives of the research. The data were analyzed through enumeration, categorization, and thematic analysis. The results show that a significant proportion of Nigerian academics have published in predatory journals, driven by pressures to publish and a lack of awareness. The consequences of this practice include the dissemination of unreliable research, damage to academic reputation, and erosion of public trust. The study recommends urgent interventions to address this issue, including education and awareness campaigns, improved access to reputable journals, and stricter quality control measures.

Abstract

Political years in Indonesia have always presented new and unexpected occurrences, including campaign strategies and activities of candidate supporters. Social media has played a significant role in shaping these patterns due to its ability to mobilize the community. One of the campaigns in the 2024 presidential election was the @aniesbubble account on X, a supporter of presidential candidate 01 Anies Baswedan. When it first appeared, this account drew widespread attention for its similarities to a Korean Pop (K-Pop) fan account. Anies was portrayed as an idol, while @aniesbubble is a fan account dedicated to sharing updates and information about him. Other accounts affiliated with @aniesbubble: @olpproject, and @haveniesday further amplified this strategy. This study aims to examine the 'K-popfication' (K-pop-inspired communication) of the content produced by the three accounts on X. This study employs a qualitative content analysis method to see the elements of 'K- popfication' in tweets or messages published within December 2023 and February 2024. The results reveal significant elements of ‘K-popfication’,, signaling a new era in Indonesian politics, defined by the pervasive use of social media and a more proactive and participatory audience dynamic. In addition, this research shows that the communication aspect was reflected in the creative use of social media and political support for Anies Baswedan and Muhaimin Iskandar was reflected in various online and offline activities. Lastly, thses accounts played crucial roles in spreading information about the candidates as they gained early access to information by attending and participating in Anies and Muhaimin’s events.

Abstract

The online platform OnlyFans has attracted a lot of attention in empirical research in recent years. In this analysis, we use a special approach that connects concepts from political philosophy and empirical research. First, we provide a detailed explanation of Jacques Rancière’s notion of the “distribution of the sensible”. Rancière’s example of the plebeians serves to illustrate how certain groups are excluded from participation. Rancière's philosophical perspective on emancipation in Indonesia is of added value because it links the embodiment of roles, which has already been addressed many times in research, with political moments. Secondly, we examine empirical data to explore how OnlyFans is perceived in Bali. By doing so, we trace how narratives surrounding sexuality, morality, and digital labor intersect with local cultural and social frameworks. These insights allow us to identify emerging tensions that reflect deeper structural issues within the social fabric. Thirdly, we argue that these tensions can be read as disruptions of the current social order — ruptures that may reveal emancipatory potential. We interpret them through the lens of Jacques Derrida’s concept of deconstruction. Our aim is not to reconstruct or stabilize social orders, but to highlight the fractures, inconsistencies, and instabilities that reveal the possibility for change within an existing system.
