Abstract

This study examines how social capital affects the well-being of individuals in Indonesia. Happiness determinants use several aspects of social capital at the same time: trust, information channels, civic participation, especially political participation. In addition, this estimation also takes into account other socio-demographic factors. The researchers found that trust, information channels, and political participation have a significant impact on the well-being of Indonesian. Individual trust and sociable gatherings to leave a child to a close-neighbor within a few hours have a positive effect on the individual’s well-being. By using IFLS data, a logistic model is used to test whether some indicators of social capital affect individual’s well-being. A positive correlation between social capital and happiness may suggest that public policies toward increasing social capital both at the individual and aggregate level may have complementary effects on raising individual’s well-being. It is important to support the government`s efforts in improving the community’s happiness which in turn can encourage development policies` effectiveness.

Abstract

Throughout history, activism has evolved with the rise of digital technologies. Individuals and groups can now conduct political activities on social media platforms. Existing studies about hashtag activism typically centered on race and gender, which are usually contextualized in the West. This study addresses the insufficient research about online activism related to policymaking in the Philippine context and focuses on online activism towards the issue of the Anti-Terrorism Bill (ATB) of 2020 that concerns potential harm to freedom of speech, expression, or of the press. This research was inspired by George and Leidner’s (2019) Hierarchy of Digital Activism, notably the Digital Spectator activism. The researchers utilized data mining approach to collect data sets scraped from Twitter. The data was acquired by using TWINT and extracting Twitter’s visible measure of interaction such as likes, retweets, and replies. These data were used to analyze Twitter users’ online activism during the heightened discussion of ATB that showed negative views of the bill using the topmost hashtag, #junkterrorbillnow and the five dominant themes: law-making process, human security, the role of social media, dialogue, and related issues. Findings also showed a link between #junkterrorbillnow and the dominant themes, and the digital spectator activities.

Abstract

Television, with a larger audience than other mass media in Indonesia, can improve youth engagement in politics, or at least their curiosity about politics. Previous studies showed inconclusive results concerning the effects of television viewing and political interest. However, the current study assessed the effect of talk shows and variety show viewership on college students’ political interests. A survey was conducted of 400 college students at Universitas Pembangunan Nasional Veteran Jakarta (UPNVJ), Jakarta, Indonesia, using a stratified sampling technique and data analysis with multiple linear regression analysis. The results verified that talk shows and variety show viewership directly relate to the political interest in youth. Variety show viewership has a negative relationship, which means that political interest decreases as viewing of variety show increases. Television use, talk show viewership, and political knowledge positively correlate with political interest. The author suggests a sample from a broader geographical area in the future. Furthermore, the conceptualization of variety shows should be examined more.

Abstract

The public sphere is not always what Jürgen Habermas imagines, which is inclusive, egalitarian and pressure-free. In the Madurese paternalistic constellation, the dominations of power over the contestation of public opinion and action become prominent in the relationship between participants/actors. A meeting between different interests causes this contestation. The struggle for influence is also shown by the dominance of ‘capital’ or resources. In Madura, Kiai are considered to have ‘charismatic’ symbolic capital related to the historical and cultural aspects of the Madurese ethnicity. This makes the figure of Kiai (along with Blater as a twin regime) become the center of consensus-making in a paternalistic public discussion. This phenomenological qualitative research becomes interesting when the world view of the local community is connected with Habermas’ perspective through the idea of European version of the bourgeois public sphere, which is considered not applicable to the local genius Madurese realm. The arena of public sphere in the Tanean Lanjhang pattern and the existence of ‘langgar’ (mosque) in the social community rejects the characterization of Habermas and brings a new definition of Madurese paternalistic public sphere, which is hegemony-mutualistic, as one of the richness of Indonesian cultural patterns.

Abstract

Free education has been particularly influential in the educational upliftment of poor families in Sri Lanka. However, over the past year and a half, similar to all other countries in the world, the educational conditions of Sri Lanka have also been affected by the unexpected circumstances of Covid-19 pandemic. However, the Sri Lankan government has taken various initiatives to ensure the educational activities. In this regard, this study aims to determine the impacts of current home-based educational activities on low-income families in Sri Lanka. Qualitative research method was used in this study, 90 low-income families were selected as the study sample. In-depth interview technique and observation were used to collect data and thematic analysis method was used for data analysis. As a result of this study, most of the students from low-income families are unable to engage in the online learning process at home, learning activities of children have become a burden to the parents and parents temporarily abstain their children from learning in some families. Therefore, the study recommends that the government should concentrate to facilitate the children in such low-income families to continue their learning in a non-burden and cost-efficiency manner during the pandemic situations.

Abstract

Stunting is a major problem in many developing countries, including Indonesia. The stunting rate in Indonesia is the fifth highest in the world. For this reason, the government is committed to handling it in an integrated manner. The social approach through the assistance of the Family Hope Program (PKH) and the Sembako Program is one of the efforts to reduce stunting. The structural-functional theory in sociology focused on the social order is used as an analytical tool. This research approach is qualitative, and the researchers are the main instrument. Data collection techniques used: interviews, documentation, and observation. The results showed a social approach through the basic food and PKH programs accompanied by continuous assistance to beneficiaries in the form of coaching aspects of health, education, childcare patterns, and the use of social assistance and integrated with other programs contributed to stunting prevention in Blora Regency, Central Java Province. This social reality is in line with the structural-functional theory that society as a system is interrelated or related to other parts of the system.

Abstract

This article investigated the fans’ identity among ARMY BTS Indonesia, the fandom name for BTS fans. The study aimed to explore factors driving K-Pop fanaticism in Indonesia in general and how it affected their dynamics within the society. Using a quantitative method through online surveys based on the fans-identity scale approach, the research surveyed a total of 243 fans in Indonesia using a network sampling approach. Results showed that fans were considerably proud to be recognized as BTS fans. In terms of the drives of their fanaticism, three main factors played into the role namely: the enjoyment feelings surged when listening to BTS music, the emotional connection toward BTS, and the social connection. These three factors were well correlated, reflecting the same construct. The latter incorporated the fans’ fascination toward idols’ works and their need to actively participate in online platforms. Fans’ participation in online platforms not only catered for their need to socialize with fans alike and showcase their adoration toward their idols but also being able to proudly show their identity as loyal fans.
